Psychic Self Defence & Spiritual Health - An article by Maya (2009) Please email me if you would like to receive a free copy of the Mayastar Information pack in pdf format by email. This has information about Psychic Self Defence, the occult and Wicca in it that may be of interest to you as well as much more information about Mayastar! I receive a number of emails through Mayastar Academy and Maya Magickal from people that feel they are experiencing negative effects of what they perceive to be psychic attack or the effects of black magick levelled against them. And so I have decided to put this guide together so that if you fall into this category. At 18 I was initiated as a High Priestess in Gardnerian Wicca and during my years with the coven (and subsequent studies and solitary ritual work), I learnt a good deal about these things so I feel qualified to offer you advice on how you may be able to help yourself with these things. I now work shamanically and using traditional witchcraft techniques that harness the forces of nature to effect change in a person’s life. You can find out more on www.mayamagickal.net I am happy to work magickally to create a protection barrier around you using my Protection Spell – and sometimes a combination of two or three spells performed over the space of a month can resolve any problem by making sure whatever the perceived cause of the situation may be, the actual situation is covered by the working; often what is perceived as a psychic attack from another person or entity is not quite what it seems; our rational minds try to put a ‘name and face’ to the situation and we can end up envisioning a situation that’s rather different to the fact of the matter. But my spells are worked in a way that ensures that no all bases are covered so you don’t need to determine the cause or define the situation for them to work. But let’s have a look at some facts about what is commonly called ‘psychic attack’… What is Psychic Attack? The most common beings that involve themselves in affecting humans on an energetic level are called ‘lower astral beings. These beings are not necessarily evil or demonic or ‘soul suckers’; but they can be very mischievous and the energy they emanate can inspire paranoia or compound the negative thoughts or feelings of the individual involved. This in turn can attract more negative beings to them and left unchecked, the situation may escalate. This kind of situation can often arise at times in our lives when our own psychic defences are low due to emotional problems; such as following a relationship break up, during adolescence, following bereavement and (the worst culprit) 'playing' with ouija boards...practising occult work that involves invoking demons (usually called 'High Magick' as opposed to 'Low Magick' which involves invoking and working with neutral energies of nature). It's worth considering the amount of 'pride' involved in thinking you can 'invoke demons and tell them what to do without having any negative effects! Pride comes before a fall after all! So those who do ‘dabble’ in ‘High Magick’ are taking a serious risk. It is important to be aware of these things but also vitally important to keep them in perspective; if you lose perspective, things will inevitably seem a lot worse! The lower astral beings that can interfere with us are not physical beings; most have never been human; and all of them (in accordance with Universal Law) MUST LEAVE IF YOU TELL THEM TO!! It’s as simple as that. The quickest way to get rid of them is to tell them to go away! The problem that people have is that they experience a bout of negativity from one such being and allow it to frighten them – and this fear just encourages them; in effect, you could say they feed off of fear; though they are drawn to any negative vibration – fear just happens to be the lowest of these. What Can You Do? For your part, you would need to practice regularly any energy healing/attunement based course techniques you learn; this would help you keep your 'energy' up. And also make sure to be grounding yourself regularly. And, should you sense the presence of a ‘negative entity’, simply make sure you don’t over react emotionally but instead, forcefully tell it to ‘go away’ (simply telling it to f*** off is perfectly effective – you don’t need to know latin!). I've done this myself and found it very effective! If you are experiencing any physical symptoms or feeling depressed on an ongoing basis, you absolutely must seek medical advice from your GP. The same goes for if you’re experiencing hallucinations (visual or auditory) – it can be very hard to tell whether the manifestation is internal or external, but it’s always best to make sure all bases are covered and you ensure your own mental/emotional/physical health is kept checked too. Regular self-healing treatment with an energy healing modality can support you even if your problem originates with a physical/mental/emotional cause. But it’s always best to deal with any problems on all fronts; using whatever ‘tools’ are available to you in order to achieve the best result in the shortest time. What Can I do? It’s impossible for me to give advice that will sort every problem out. But Mayastar deal with problems on a holistic basis so, my advice would always be to deal with any problem on every front in order for the most effective solution. There are protection based energy healing courses that you might be interested in. For information, follow this link... and of course, I am happy to work magickally on a person’s behalf. Even if it’s a case that the person isn’t sure the problem is on an energetic level, I am happy to work magickally on a ‘being on the safe side’ way. If you are concerned that there are negative entities around you or someone levelling negative magick towards you and it’s affecting you, email me and I'll be pleased to discuss the options with you.
