As you walk along your soul path, identifying and achieving your soul’s purpose and developing your spirituality, it is a good idea to protect yourself. After all, you wouldn’t step outside without a coat to protect your body from the cold and rain, would you? Likewise, when you open yourself spiritually, it is better to protect yourself from lesser energies. Many techniques exist to help you do this; here, I will explain exactly why it is important, and give you a couple of easy ways that I find most effective. Although I must say in all my years of working psychically with spirit I have never experienced low spiritual energies just low human energies. I don’t feel there is anything out there to fear other than fear itself.
To get to grips with the idea of psychic protection, you must first understand that everything in the universe vibrates at different levels. Although your body seems real and solid, it actually consists of trillions of cells made from trillions of sub-atomic particles that are all vibrating in space. Trees and rocks vibrate slowly, while people vibrate more quickly. Emotions and feelings vibrate faster still. The more positive your feelings, the higher you vibrate. The more negative your feelings the lower your vibration. Nothing is how you imagine it, yet what you imagine does become your reality. So the more you use your imagination, the more real it becomes. The results of the psychic protection techniques I will talk about can be measured on certain specialised cameras, so you can see the results of your thoughts becoming your reality. When opening to Spirit, you want only to be open to the very highest, most loving beings that vibrate on the highest levels. You need to protect yourself against lower vibrations and feelings – whether they are your own, or belong to other people.
Everyone suffers from negative feelings, such as jealousy and anger, on occasion; it is part of the human condition to do so. But you do not want to put these negative energies out into the world to hurt yourself or others. The law of the universe says that whatever you focus upon you will put out into the world, where it will be magnified and come back to you. So you must to learn to protect yourself from any negativity put out into the world by yourself and others. You do not want to leave yourself open to these lower vibrations.
The angelic methodOther ways of protecting yourself are just as simple and even faster. If you are walking or driving anywhere and you feel unsafe, for any reason, you can quickly ask your guardian angel or Archangel Michael to protect you.
1 Imagine your guardian angel’s wings, whatever colour you see them as is right for you. Or imagine Archangel Michael’s wings, which are dark blue.
2 See the wings wrapping themselves around you so nobody can see you, and nothing can hurt you. You are protected. This is a really good technique for emergencies in everyday life because it is so quick.
You must perform a protection technique before beginning any spiritual work, including meditation, as it is essential not to leave yourself open to lower vibrations. Now you have taken your first step on your journey towards spiritual enlightenment and you are moving towards fulfilling your soul’s purpose. The Chakra method
A protection technique using your chakras (see here for more information on Chakras) 1 Allow at least half an hour of uninterrupted time. Turn off your phone and find a quiet space. Make yourself comfortable in a chair with your feet uncrossed on the ground. You might like to put on some relaxing music, burn incense or aromatherapy oils to get yourself in the spiritual frame of mind. Lighting a candle is a good method but please ensure you don’t leave it unattended. 2 Focus on your breathing. Imagine your foot chakras opening. With each out breath you grow roots out of your feet and into the Earth to ground yourself. Then focus on your in breath. With each in breath you begin to draw Earth energy up through your body. The Earth energy can be whatever colour is right for you at this moment. 3 As the energy rises up through your body, feeling warm and soothing, you notice your body relaxing more and more until the energy reaches your base chakra. 4 Breathing in and drawing the energy up with each breath, you start to open your seven chakras from the base upwards. Open each of your chakras in turn. 5 The base chakra is red. The sacrum, just below the navel, is orange. Solar plexus, just above the navel, is yellow. The heart charka is emerald green and pink. The throat charka is blue. The third eye, between your eyes, is purple. Finally, the crown chakra, at the top of your head, is either white or indigo. 6 Imagine drawing down universal energy from above to join with the Earth energy. Here the Earth and universal energies float around and into your aura, forming a hard shell of clear crystalline energy through which only positive energy can move. Any negative energy will be transformed into positive energy and sent back to where it came from. Relax inside this energy for a few minutes. This is the same technique that you should use before attempting to meet your spirit guides or receiving messages from loved ones. 7 Begin to close down by shutting your third eye, seeing the purple fade away and so down through the rest of your body. Close your base chakra and breathe up your roots back into your feet. Lastly, close off your crown chakra, leaving yourself full of white light with a clear crystalline shell of protection around you. You have now opened, protected and closed yourself down again. You should get into the habit of always doing this before performing any spiritual work. Make sure you always close down again before returning to everyday life.
