Do you guys ever experience attacks from astral creatures?

[valkarath]

Had a very interesting experience last night.

I got attacked during my sleep by a beastial creature. I thought I was awake, but I guess I was in the astral version of my room.

I heard this beast-like grunting noise coming from my left side. I couldn’t move and I couldn’t speak. I had a pillow on my left side and it was getting shoved into the side of my head and shoulder by a pretty powerful physical force. I felt “something” laying down my left arm, like it was pinning my arm.

And then I realized this damn thing was humping me.

I realized I was under attack. I did a quick “system check”, but I wasn’t being drained.

So I started tryingg to breath in energy, but found it difficult to do. After the third deep breath, I finally managed to gather enough solar energy to shove it out in a wave and croak out “I banish you by the power of the Sun.”

Yeah, I know a little dorky, but it worked.

And that’s when I woke up in my physical form. I could feel the energy still there and move my left arm through it.

I layed in bed trying to call my spirit companion to me, but it was difficult. When she finally came, her energy felt weird, off somehow. I prepared myself for this “spirit” to try impersonating her, but it didn’t.

I just couldn’t communicate with her. I finally felt her energy “click” into place around my back and she felt normal again, but I still couldn’t communicate with her.

It was like this thing was interfering with our ability to communicate.

And that pissed me off. I got out of bed, put on my clothes, looked right where I felt it, and said “You wanna dance? Let’s dance, mother fucker.”

And then I went into full on sorcerer mode.

Pulled out the bowl of water to open the gateway, called Raphael to me in his warrior form for protection, and contacted my spirit companion.

I didn’t want to get of the energy until I knew where the attack was coming from. I thought maybe some dumb magickian on here might have decided to try his skills out, but that wasn’t the case.

She explained it was a creature from the lower astral planes. I asked her if this was the “astral wildlife” I’d heard Robert Bruce talk about. She said it was.

She told me I’ll get attacked like this from time to time as I open gateways.

I asked her the most effective way I could have handled it and she told me to “use my sword”. I haven’t been attacked in so many years I forgot I could even do that. lol

So I switched to badass sorcerer-warrior-god-mode (shifted into my godform) and summoned my sword into my hand.

Quite frankly, I was pissed this thing humped me. Talk about disrespect. I’d knock a dog across the room for it, so I wasn’t going to let this little pissant get away with it ether.

(This attitude is a huge shift for me. Before I would just have banished it away or quietly unmade it, but I’m definitely awakening the more fiery emotions in me as I work through the 18 Flames.)

So I said aloud and in the astral “You want to hump ME? Come hump me NOW!” And I felt that immediately it didn’t want to.

So I “willed” it before me. I couldn’t see it, it was invisible even in the astral, but I knew exactly where it was.

I attacked it with a combination of sword blows, kicked it, knocking it to the ground before me. I breathed in energy and projected it through my sword at it.

I could finally see it as a small cowering shadow. So I breathed in more energy, leapt into the air, yelled out a battle cry in both worlds and came down on it with a killing blow.

I closed the ritual and finished up with a final Solar Banishing Ritual to get rid of any residual energies lingering around. My apartment felt much cleaner. I checked my bedroom and the energy was definitely gone.

I called out to my spirit companion on the way back to bed and felt her energy settle around mine. It was nice.

You guys ever have any experiences like this? Do you ever randomly get attacked by parasites that slip through the cracks?

Any advice on setting up a defense system to keep them from getting through to you? I’d like to have an automated system to handle the defenses, but still want to know when I’m being attacked. Kind of like a notification popping up.

Yes, it happened quite a lot when I was younger, also when I did healing work sometimes what looked like (to use a metaphor) a random piece of string was actually the end of the end of the tail of an enormous astral RAT, so healing one tiny thing for one fairly ordinary (non-magician) person could piss off some SERIOUS astral motherfuckers, so I got used to dealing with it.

I still get attacks, even just being vocal on a forum will land some of those (white-lighters are always the worst, they think they’re doing The Right Thing and attack without hesitation) - I mostly just neutralise, defend like you described there, or occasionally if I’m in the mood, do something nastier, but I don’t make a habit of sharing all those ideas online!

Honestly you have the basics right there, you can structure weapons and know how to empower and use them - you also have the stance, you showed no mercy or doubt, so just trust your own judgement and don’t let people put rules or limitations in your head.

I had no-one to do that as a child and I think that’s a GOOD thing!

[valkarath]

You know, it’s funny and awesome that you mentioned it happened a lot to you when you were performing healing.

I actually created and charged a healing amulet for a dear friend last night with Raphael.

That’s pretty interesting.

So just create thought forms and power them with my intention as usual?

Is there a way I can add a more physical component to that?

I’m learning I’m more powerful when I’m performing physical actions on this plane while performing astral actions at the same time.

Then something that you create knowing what works FOR YOU is the way to go, you’ll have your own symbols and powerful imagery that is the best place to turn.

[valkarath]

You and your damn wisdom, Eva. I feel like I need to write “the answer is within you” on the chalkboard a hundred times. Time to go back and watch “The Wizard of Oz” on repeat. lol

How powerful can these astral nasties get?

The negative thought forms I’ve experienced from other people were fairly weak, but sneaky as hell, draining me while I was asleep until I learned enough to stop it.

But this was much more aggressive and obviously had a bit more power. Enough to interrupt my own natural flow of energy.

It was about the size of a small bear.

I’m not afraid of them and I guarantee you they will regret tangling with me, but I’m just more curious about them now.

[Lady_Eva]

I don’t know exactly what you attracted, so it’s probably best to ask your spirits for details, I’ve found it most useful to not worry or overthink attacks afterwards, because it just places more of your attention on them in an unhelpful way.

If my security software blocks a malware intrusion, I don’t worry about it, obsess about the author, or wonder how many more I’m likely to get, I just check the files are gone and run scans, and then get on with, y’know, looking at amusing photos of cats or whatever i was doing in the first place.

The people who think most about astral attacks are usually the ones who experience them the most, and I’m not sure which way the arrow of cause > effect flows there, but I find it suits me personally to deal with anything efficiently, then move on with things. JMO though and like I said, other people’s actions shouldn’t be overly important in guiding your own.

I think good defences that are active beat being always reactive to whatever may be flying randomly round the aether. JMO.

[valkarath]

and then get on with, y'know, looking at amusing photos of cats

Wow. I fuckin’ love you, Eva. Seriously. You are just fuckin’ awesome. lol

Perfect way to look at it. Lesson learned. Back to Grumpy Cat. lol

You know, every time you respond to one of my threads, I feel like I should just bend over and say “Thank you, Mistress. May I have another.” lol

Note to self: shall type future replies wearing elbow length latex gloves… okay enough of that, I’ve not even had breakfast yet, as you were! :o)

[valkarath]

Thank you so much for your mentioning that it happened to you when you were performing healing work, Eva.

That was a key piece of info I needed to shift my perception and understand a connection between last night and the healing work for my ex-wife.

She’s suffered chronic pain her entire life, from when she was a child. Her father was an alcoholic and she told me many times about her laying awake at night, worrying about him. She still has insomnia problems all these years later.

I was performing some exercises today in preparation for accepting the Second Flame of the OAA this weekend. I just finished inhaling a great deal of energy into my third eye chakra and was feeling light-headed for a few minutes.

My ex-wife called asking me to bring her something and told me she was really hurting bad today. My first thought was “Damn, the amulet must not be working” or she just couldn’t let go of the chronic pain because she identified so strongly with it.

As I was taking the item to her, I intuited the astral nasty from last night was a parasite dislodged from her.

So I talked to her and told her my suspicions. It made a lot of sense to us considering everything she’s told me and our experiences together.

Her neck, shoulders, and lower back were killing her, so she laid against me and I ran some energy through her spine. I also mentally intoned Raphael a few times and asked him to join me.

All of a sudden, all the tension released from her body, and she slumped against me. In that moment, I had an image flash into my mind of all of her chakras covered with these nasty bug-like parasites crawling all over them, burrowing into them, biting them. Some chakras only had one or two, but a lot of chakras had three or more.

I told her what I saw and let her know we’d figure it out. On the way back up to my apartment, I remembered this thread about BlackCashmere clearing out her own parasite.

She’s got the free time next week to come up and try it out while I support her. I’ll let you know how it works.

That’s why I love this place. We’re sharing ideas and experiences back and forth, creating a huge knowledge base that we can all refer to again and again. Amazing.

In Psychic self defense by Robert Bruce it says you can use salt packs, some salt with water in a bag in another bag and put in socks at night, strong magnets are better, you can make a magnet pad with magnets and tape and put those in your socks, that will keep them from getting in and also strong essential oils like tea tree oil. You can also use garlic slices.

[Biosynth]

A beast grunting at your side… sounds like some naughty scene out of a Freddy Kruger movie.

[valkarath]

Thanks, Somery. I haven’t read his “Psychic Self Defense” book. Pretty interesting techniques.

Biosynth … lol. Wait until the scientists discover what frequency spirits are on and can capture them clearly on film. I can just see it now “spirit porn”. Ugh. lol

[Biosynth]

Some of it actually might be decent (depends what race of spirit you are talking about). Anyway, what exactly is this entity? Well aside from lower astral vermin/scum, keep in mind that the Psychic Space of the Collective Unconscious of Mankind in itself has its own scum… like peoples dirty thoughts in themselves can be thought of as lower realm entities. =)

[valkarath]

I had created a healing amulet for someone close to me. When Raphael started healing her, I was attacked.

It turns out her chakras had multiple parasites from the trauma she suffered as a kid. Thanks to a forum member who shared some intelligence with me, we discovered a larger, nastier entity had attached itself to her through the parasites.

Raphael gave me an exorcism ritual to perform, while Raphael and Belial together helped me tweak it to account for the larger, nastier entity.

About a week and a half ago, I performed the “Rite of Parasitic Exorcism” (as I’ve come to call it) with the help of Raphael, Michael, Gabriel, and Uriel.

As of today, she is still completely free of the chronic pain from her lifelong struggle with fibromyalgia. Turns out it was the parasites and the entity causing the pain.

[The_Cusp]

Had a few random attacks like that, but not in awhile. Lately, I get things randomly presenting themselves.

The more complex the thought form, the more unpredictable it is. That’s why a sword is better than a gun. That’s exactly what you’re doing when you use a sword.

@valkarath

I could finally see it as a small cowering shadow.

That makes me think it might be a rogue thought form it’s self. They tend to look like that when seen.

I use to get attacks like these a lot in the beginning until a thought about using a Dreamcatcher came to me. I bought it from a local indian shop and she did a cleansing with sage and gave me extra sage to burn in my room. Once I started using it, the attacks stopped immediately. Just make sure to hang it over your bed and that the suns rays hit it every morning to clean it out from the night before.

Calling upon the power of Sol( the sun) by vibrating and visualizing it before bed and commanding protection by it’s power as I sleep has worked wonders for me when I moved and lost the dreamcatcher. I would then banish the excess solar energies in the morning.

I have also called upon the archangel Michael to protect me and others and he has never failed to do so to my knowledge
