Hey, I want to know if anyone has any more ideas on how to protect your self from negative presences (no, not your mother in law, I mean ghosts). I've had problems like this since I was little and I couldn't find much help on the internet. I understand these tools have to be something you believe in with your whole heart or it won't work. I'm pretty open minded. Anyways, these are the tools I currently use, but after last nights experiance, it didn't help. -Surrounding myself in a brilliant white light, filled with divine love -Visualize myself in the middle of a circle of large mirrors facing outwards -Calling upon Angels, Guardians, Spirits, and Fairies I've heard sweet grass, sea salt, and sage wards off evil? Also certain gems and crystals? Anyone know more about this? I know they're attracted to our powerful negative emotions, and feed off fear...but when you sense something is there, it's hard to be positive and strong. I'm more worried about the safety of my 4 year old brother, who also feels them. Please help.
There are many spiritual and religious practices that have some sorts of rituals, charms, spells, etc for protection, cleansing, etc. If do a internet search of say protection spells, it should tell you how to do it. White sage is also common in American southwest native traditions, to make smudge wands with for cleansing spaces of evil spirits. If it is only ghosts that are bothering you, there are people that specialize in ghost removal and/or relocation.
If I were you I would sprinkle salt around your house in a clockwise manner. Make holy water by leaving a bowl of water in the sun for three hours..make the sign of the cross over the bowl once every hour for three hours . Go through your house with a crucifix and tell whatever ghosts you feel are around that they're dead and to Go to God.
How about the LBRP, if you're into Wicca and/or paganism? Whenever I used to do it, it always made me feel calm and protected. I think the main thing is to find something which gives you a strong sense of security and protection, religious objects and talismans (eg the Bible, crucifix, pentagram) seem to work for a lot of people. Also, salt as mentioned above. A friend of mine was having problems with an entity and she always kept a bowl of salt water in the room and it helped somewhat, although the entity was attached to a book she had and the only thing which got rid of it permanently was burning the book. It was spooky though, her story gave me chills...
There are plenty of protection spells against the awesome power of voodoo priests and other exponents of the dark arts, but some spells against unearthly figures and dark entities make the situation worse Be careful Hotwater
If you want to use Rocks/Crystals of any kind, I carry a piece of Black Hematite with me wherever I go (as well as amethyst, quartz, and herkimer diamond... heh. If anyone asks, I just say I like shiny things ) Black Hematite is supposed to reflect negativity, and has some other benefits... Other than that, I know a device that might help... ever hear of "Orgonite"? It's basically a crystal, some metal shavings, and resin, all in a certain way... the idea is that it takes in negative energy and changes it into positive. Assuming these spirits really are evil, orgonite would definitely give them a reason to stay away from you. I'd suggest a piece of orgonite affectionately dubbed the "Holy Hand Grenade" It's usually conically shaped with 5 crystals in it. I'm going to be making one for myself as soon as I gather the final things I need (Resin, metal, and a mold >_<) It's pretty easy to find instructions on how to make em, or you can buy em from someone if you don't feel like going though the hassle. Just shop around first, a lot of people like to rip others off... lol A general rule of thumb is tons of fancy crystals doesn't help, since a lot of times it just creates an unbalanced or chaotic energy. Simple is good. And cheaper. Which is also good. And more simple than all that... have you ever just tried a firm "No" when they are near? Or simple ask them firmly to leave you alone? Sometimes it works. One final thing is a technique called "boosting" - It's best done while SMILING, so get a nice real smile going before starting. You essentially think of something that makes you feel love... keep it in your mind until your heart is all warm and tingly and whatnot, then keep concentrating on this feeling, making it as strong as you can. Next, you imagine that this feeling of love is actually an energy, (Which you usually send towards people who just 'need a hug' to help make them happier, hence, "boosting" them) Now you imagine this feeling/energy as a green flow, coming from your heart, and surrounding you in a cocoon. Similar to the white light thing, but like I said, this technique is usually used to help others feel happier. I just adapt it to use as a minor shield when I'm feeling crummy. Oh, and... first post ^_^ Hi.
Shielding can be done with whatever makes you feel safe. Instead of white light, I've known friends to use things like stone walls, hedges, thorned rosebushes, metal, a tornado (with them as the eye), fire, tree trunks, swords, etc. as their visualizations with varying degrees of success. It might also be prudent to make sure you aren't attracting/producing such "dark entities" with your actions, imagination, or other psychometaphysical tools.
