Bear with me.
A little over a week or two ago, I had an odd experience during sleep paralysis. I wrote it down in my dream journal but I’m unable to find it. What I recall: A figure of a smallish woman? crawled over my back and gripped/ hugged me from behind. It/she had a snake-like voice and even hissed like a snake. I grabbed it’s wrists (very thin, very cold) to create some distance and asked who/ what it was and it only laughed at me. Then it hissed by my ear, it was almost like I could feel it’s snake tongue rattling against my neck. That was the end of it and I woke up shortly after. I should mention that the interaction felt strangely erotic, though I wasn’t in anyway aroused.
Just now, I decided to sleep-in because I’m sick and thought I might try to relax and see if I’m still capable of experiencing full-body astral vibrations. I’ve never fully astral projected but I have experienced the vibrations on-and-off for about 15 years now. It takes a long time as I go from a fully conscious state to my body falling asleep, and I get vibrations beginning from my chest (My Anahata chakra I think) that branch towards my shoulders and hips but stop there.
I then felt a pressure on my lower back. In the past when I’ve experienced these vibrations, I have often felt an uncomfortable sqeezing pressure there. Everytime I tried to concentrate on a meditative state and visualise (I was visualising a blue ball of light from my centre trying to spread across my body) the lower back pressure would become more intense and I got distracted. The pressure become so unbearable that I asked spirit what was causing it, because I don’t have any lower back issues in real life or while I normally sleep. I felt like it was some kind of blockage.
Instantly, after I asked I felt the pressure transform into a body of sorts with it’s legs and arms wrapped around me. The arms specifically were tightly wrapped around my shoulders. I knew then it was an attachment of sorts and asked what it was. It was silent for awhile and I told it to speak and that I would hear it, that I wasn’t afraid of hearing its voice. Bizarrely, it said “I love you” in a whispered voice and kissed my cheek. This time, the presence didn’t feel explicitly feminine but more sexless. I can’t remember exactly what I said after that but it was something to the effect of, “FUCK OFF” and then the vibrations ended. I then (unwillingly) entered into a state of arousal before finally waking up from my sleep paralysis.
Obviously, I didn’t connect the two dreams until now. It’s not required reading but I did make a post [here] about how I once came into contact with a parasitic entity of sorts many years ago. There was a blood exchange. Get mad at me later, I know it was stupid but I was a teenager and it wasn’t intentional. I mentioned in it that I had contacted a medium psychic about it. What I didn’t mention there was that the psychic specifically mentioned that it rests on my shoulders. And what I didn’t mention was that back in my teen days when I would contact spirits through the oujia board (I KNOW, TERRIBLE IDEA AND I DON’T TOUCH THEM ANYMORE), I also encounted a spirit that spelled “I love you” over and OVER again. Freaked me out and I ended it there but now I’m thinking back on that.
Since then I have been slowly learning about different magick tradtions/ systems. I’ve really just started from the basics but I’m most interested in Hermetic magick and standard Western esoterica and Wicca. I’ve been taking my time intentionally so have not done any spells including protection or banishment spells. All I do is practice some basic spiritual hygiene which mostly involves cleansing my space rather than myself. I’m a little worried that I’ve pissed this entity off, getting disgusted by it rather than tolerating it.
So, some questions:
- Is there a beginner friendly spell you would recommend to banish this attachment, or is there something I can do the next time something similar happens? Like a chant, or visualisation, or some kind of deity who would be willing to help me?
- What is the difference between a lesser entity/ parasite and a succubus/ incubus? I know the former can be manifested as a snake, but the slightly erotic undertones and the (very fake) “I love you”'s make me think of succubi. Apologies to those who enjoy working with succubi and find the comparison ridiculous, I just don’t know much about them yet. Are they also considered parasitic?
I want to avoid anything elaborate or hiring a medium to do the cleanse for me as I’d rather be conservative with my money. But I’ll consider anything that is recommended to me.
