You know when you get that “kick in the pants” reminder?
Well, I got mine
good and hard when I didn’t take time to protect my mental, emotional,
physical, spiritual and psychic energy before embarking on a ghost tour.
Last blog I said
I’d share self-protection spell if asked; someone asked.
I had planned to
write it while on holiday. Too bad, said the hands of
fate, all good plans of mice and men go awry.
My first day at
a lovely, quiet place I learned family and friends’ lives and homes were
threatened by a raging Northern California fire (worst in the states’ history).
In the midst of contacting family an offer to teach a workshop set for early November and I had to send a proposal
immediately. Internet connection was down.
Rather than come
home refreshed I was mentally and emotionally drained from worry and planning for the workshop.
To top it off I
was part of The Haunted Bay’s San Francisco Ghost Tour going back to a place I
had previously investigated (see link below). This time I was punched in the head and pushed by
an unseen entity. “Oh no! This doesn’t happen to me!”
Then why did it? Worn done mentally and emotionally, I did a brief protection
ritual without much focus.
Funny how fate will
slap you with one hand while with the other offers redemption.
The next day at
my “Wellness” class the teacher went through self-protection
techniques, some I’ve forgot and another learned.
I share from the class and from my book, “How to Talk With Spirits: Séances, Mediums, Ghost Hunts” (free on Kindle until 10/28/17 - See link below:)
Before and after
interacting with others in spirit, ghostly, and healing way, or at any
potentially unpleasant meeting, cleanse your energy.
Imagine
sitting in a clear white bubble. It can also be a pastel blue or
pink.
Smudge
with a smudge stick or encircle yourself with incense if you wish.
Ground
yourself by visualizing your feet (or go outside and stand barefoot on the
earth) standing firmly connected to the earth. Say, I am safe.
Using water to clean more than the body: Cup the water and let it
dribble up your arms as you move to the crown of your head, now wipe down your arms and out through your fingertips, flicking off as though riding
yourself of all negative thoughts and feelings.
Protection
Spell
Sit
in a quiet space with a white candle lit and incense and
flowers if you wish. You might add a crystal and/or a serene image.
Enjoy the beauty of that space. Pay attention to your breath, regular breathing, in and out, calming and easy. Do this for about five to ten minutes or longer.
Then visualize
a safe space, a circle of light colored energy surrounding you.
Say
aloud: Only good can enter herein.
Call in the Divine One whom you connect to: guardian, angel, guide, God, Jesus,
Goddess, Buddha, or Allah - you chose:
I
call in _______ to be with me. Together we create energy to empower my spirit
and protect me from all that can potentially harm me.
I
do this with confidence and pureness of intention with harm to none and only
for the greater good.
I
wear this shield of protection whenever needed.
So
Mote it Be. Therefore it is.
Sit for as long as you like enjoying the positive energy around you. Snuff out your candle before leaving.
