Question about psychic attacks and what can I do for protection?

[JagJ]

Hi,
I am rposting an answer to mallie originally about psychic attacks originally posted in response to candle burning. Since the gold candle that had been burning so cleanly suddenly started burning sooty and black, it was suggested that it could have been due to a psychic attack. Here is who I am thinking it may have been, but I am not sure. How long can the psychic attack last for? Can it be ther esult of years ago, or does it have to be current and ongoing with a person consciously aiming negative energy at you?

The idea of psychic attack is strange. I don't feel I have any enemies, but did have problems at my old job with a woman from Haiti. It's been at least 7 years since I left that job. At another job from 4 years ago in which I felt that Jonathan, a junior person in my group, I used to pick upon negative energy from him aimed at me, usually on the weekends. It didn't occur to me that he was into things like magick and such, but maybe all he had to do was to simply think really negative thoughts towards me. I eventually was fired from that job just like the one before that with the Haitian girl. Hmm..corporate types just don't like me! What do you think? I can go and get an AA Michael candle. Would that help to protect me? Any thoughts?

As long as you believe in the attacks/curses, they'll manifest themselves.

I have seen candles of all kinds burn cleanly and then black and sooty without it being a psychic attack at all. I highly doubt that's what it is. I think candles just do that sometimes.

I couldn't say the most common because my experience isn't the vastest - usually though attacks are caused by brooding people or as a result of a neg - which are usually earthbound. You will rarely encounter a troublesome entity that is of the water or air or fire.

Symptoms of a general type of attack can be things like:
- Sharp stabbing pains in the feet
- Prolonged periods of bad luck
- Sharp stabbing pains
- Constant cramping for no reason
- atmospheres that suddenly become cold and creepy and give you shivers

The theory behind it is long to explain but here are a few things you can do straight away that are effective.

The very first if it's an attack on your person - eg you very suddenly become uncomfortably sick for no percieveable reason, you're getting cramps and pain all over your body etc - First line of defense is a long shower. Get straight to the shower and have as long a shower as you can. Don't come out for at least 30 minutes.

For an atmosphere clearing:

Fumigation. This is different to smudging. Find the incense sticks you like most. Ones that work good are sage and frankinsence. Dragons blood also works. In particular find one you like.

Now, if you can, get as many as you can. I wouldn't go any less then about 8 - preferably a back of 12 or 24. You might want to hold a tea towel over you face to make sure you're not breathing in too much smoke. Now light them all and go all around your house affirming " This house is blessed and peaceful.", " This disturbance is ended", "This energy leaves my home".

Remember to say thank you when you're done. You're working with the creative force that makes manifest your intentions.

Sheilds are only as powerful as the time and energy put into them. They can be helpful, but they can be broken if the will is strong enough.

White light - you can try it. From my experience, as i've observed, it's a little like a child pulling the cover over their heads when they get scared at night. it provides a little comfort, but in practical terms it isn't always helpful. It's more of a 'superficial' light. I think what we refer to as ' White light' or what we really mean it is, isn't controlled by us, but will go to what is wishes to go to. I think usually when this approach works, you never had much of a problem anyway.

Probably the most interesting and powerful form of protection i have come across is the Lesser Banishing Ritual of the Pentagram. It can be used for straight banishing and also clearing a space. Combined with hand signs plus powerfully resonating the Hebrew Godnames and commands that accompanies it creates a specific energy that manifests a powerful burst of banishing energy. That's how i've come to understand it.

This is a good article to start from to gain a little knowledge. Doesn't have the wording though, may talk about it at a later date. Invoking and Banishing Pentagrams - Asiya's Shadows

For more information on all of these i highly reccomend Robert Bruce's book ' Practical Psychic self Defense hand book'. Almost 30 years of field work makes him quite an authority. He knows his stuff and he's been of valuable help personally along my journey. I can personally testify his understanding in these things.

That's a really interesting ritual. I want to to try it out one of these days.

I do a shortened version of what is normally done. Still quite effective. There is a more traditional version, far more powerful apparently, but far more involved ritually speaking.

haha yeah some of the pentagram rituals are really full on. I have read quite a few occult books detailing all the specific oratorys, formal dress such as robes, and even pictures of complex pentagrams overlayed with all kinds of symbols, names of Gods, chants, etc. It's why I kind of liked that link, it's just simple straight forward technique that doesn't require you to be an occultist historian to try and figure out what you should be doing.

I agree.


I don't really believe in that type of thing exactly. However, say someone is sending negative energy your way. It doesn't even have to be on purpose either.

Like I was getting something that I know someone else really wanted. Even though I'm sure they were happy for me, they were feeling bad for themselves about it, therefor sending me negative energy.

It's not like they were, "Oh, I'm going get that Tracey" or anything. It's just energy.

Hi, thanks for this link and book suggestion. I will get a copy of his book.

I am still having trouble with negative energies getting in my body. A friend suggested that I use stronger shielding like going to the crystalline caves and then through my personal pyramid of light to the creator.

That banishing ritual is from the golden dawn . I would do the circulation of white light first . Circulation of white light I read a book on psychic self defence , as I remember they used a method of visualizeing a tirangle on your forehead , aiming your self to where ever you thought the attack was comming from and shoot the triangle to them . desert rat

One of the interesting things was that when I was smudging my room, in the corner, I felt like I came across the energy of one of the women at my old jobs whe really didn't like me. Strange stuff. I still think it might be a psychic attack!

You have a basic history knowledge. That's all well and good. However reading a book and telling people stuff without really having any personal practical application behind it hinders the reputation of what you're speaking of. Interesting suggestion - but have you actually used it on the field? Is it effective?

Certainly things like this are often not believed. Whether it just doesn't make sense, you haven't experienced it or you fear it and are just in denial - that's fine. In actuality, you may never experience a really horrible attack.

Sometimes by attacks, it doesn't have to be sharp pains and cramps. Sometimes an attack is where things around you are manipulated to put you in uncomfortable, possibly dangerous situations. Perhaps being in the worng place at the wrong time. Being the victim of a gun shot wound while being held up in a bank or something could be an example. What im trying to say is attacks aren't just localised to a few things only.

I got off topic, as i often do. What i do want to say though is that very often you won't hear of genuine psychic attacks. There may be thousands of occurences, but in the whole scheme of it, the population, that is only a small proportion of people. Most will not talk about it. Spiritual teachers will often be attacked too.

There are ways to counter-act attacks on oneself caused purposely by another person. Magickal practitioners are the ones I hear most commonly about.

Why is it that somebody is psychically attacking you years after personal contact? What did you do or say to her to piss her off this much? A psychic attack isn't exactly just close your eyes, send a bad thought, and get on with your life. It requires quite a bit of focus and strong energy techniques to carry it through.

So I ask you again, what did you do that was bad enough for somebody to want to attack you 7 years after the fact? Don't say 'nothing' because we generally need a strong personal energy signature to direct negative energy at to make some kind of impact.

Agreed, it's a common misunderstanding that 'psychic attacks' will result in some kind of physical pain against their body. Negative situational circumstances such as psy-vamping, dark spirit attachments, spying, unauthorised mind reading, etc are all examples I have personally undertaken against other people

Funny i just noticed this. Do you know they practice voodoo in Haiti?
