While perusing some old threads, I found a pretty good one here:
[url=http://becomealivinggod.com/forum/general-discussion/aura-strengthening-and-magickal-protection/]http://becomealivinggod.com/forum/general-discussion/aura-strengthening-and-magickal-protection/[/url]
It should have been in this sub-forum, but the thread is probably older, ha!
Anyhow - what do you do to defend yourself from magick/spirits/psychic bombardment and influence?
A healthy body and balanced mind with a positive outlook seems to work. I think these attributes fend off alot of negative energy. As for serious demonic attack, never experienced it so wouldnt know.
What Brutus says is correct but you also need incenses, certain plants, salt, water, light, a strong mind, certain words of power etc. Everything is relative according to the type of attack. All the above work from my experience.
There is a mirror visualisation that S.Connolly mentions in several of her books that I find effective. Also I have borrowed techniques from the Don Jaun books, specifically a method of tensing through the core to protect against have my energy accessed during slightly turbulent evocation.
I agree with both Brutus and Soundwave’s advice. I find it’s relative to the situation. Let’s say negative thoughtwaves are coming from a mentally undisciplined co-worker. Imagining a mirror/s attached to the area of your body that it’s being directed at(quite often the back of the head)reflecting it all back to the sender can really make that person become poisonous to themselves, polluting their own aura with negativity.
Also encasing oneself in golden light that is emanated out from the Dan Tien, which tensing the core can help with for this method on the exhale, solidifying a protective and repellant barrier.
Regarding the attack coming from a more spiritual origin, the core tensing method can also help with this along with repeating and identifying with the I AM mantra. Assuming your divinity and right to protect yourself. The calmer and controlled you can be the better, especially emotionally. LBRP for general maintenance of a protective aura.
In my limited experience this is all I can offer but have found them to be helpful.
Apparently there is some sort of vampiric attack against certain members of the forum at this point in time. Pretty interesting topic relating to the practice of self-defense:

I use the Omnipotent Protective Barrier of Light of Carl Nagels Babylonian Sacred Words of Power, which calls Adad the Babylonian God of Storms
Just recently I morphed a couple of these self defense ideas and techniques together as an experiment as well as a protective measure and it seemed to work very well;
*Sit still in a light meditative state and begin to imagine yourself breathing in golden energy down through your crown into your chest area, swirling the energy around your heart chakra and on the exhale, feel it moving evenly outwards through your body until you get a sense of a golden orb surrounding you. Three or four yogic breaths should be enough to create and sustain this feeling/image.
*Next, imagine yourself in the center of a huge hexagram, so that your entire body is in the center of the six-sided shape. Within the center of a hexagram, energy is balanced and it is very difficult for anything to enter. This is a psionics premise which Uncle Chuckie explains in one of his books. Even holding a pendulum over the center of a hexagram on paper will produce very little, if any movement, so it is with this in mind that when imagining yourself in the center of a huge 9 foot or larger hexagram you will feel a balancing or centering effect and a sense that you are within a very tight and protective energy field. Viewing each section of the two triangles of the hexagram as solid circular steel or gold(suit yourself on diameter)will help with the three dimensional visualization that comes next.
*Once this visual picture is felt with decent enough clarity(by this stage you would have sunk deeper into a trance state)you can begin to slowly spin the hexagram clockwise around you, picking up tremendous speed until it essentially is moving so fast that it looks like a massive three dimensional hexagram surrounding you, pulsating and deflecting with immense motion any incoming attack, disintegrating and burning it off as it hits the perimeter.You can also use the power of the force in motion to begin to pull out any impurities and effects of energetic pollution from yourself by scanning your body at this point, removing everything unclean and foreign within your energy field, while still maintaining the emanating golden orb around you, you will feel the golden vibrations from the bars of the two opposing triangles creating an intense protective field. Once you reach the desired feeling of protection and empowerment, begin to slow the momentum of the hexagram down until it stops.
Uncle Chuckie mentions that energy cannot enter the center of the hexagram but things sent out from the center can be much more powerful, so the implications for using this ritual to influence your world via magical methods could also be considered.
Interesting that you mention the hexagram, I use a merkaba, essentially a 3d hexagram, with mirrored surfaces for my shield. I am going to incorporate some of your visualisations and see how things go
It’s pretty much the same thing. If you can visualize the merkaba then you’re already there. The only difference would be the spinning force component which seemed to generate some extra power and adds an energetic build up of force to direct as you will. It can be a little complicated, for me at least, to try to visualize the 3D hexagram to begin with(holding a multi angled shape), so therefore beginning with a 2D hexagram and going from there kind of makes it easier. The slow spinning builds to the point of the 3D image. Imagining a golden hexagram in your chest also helps.
[quote=“YogaApprentice, post:7, topic:1255”]I use the Omnipotent Protective Barrier of Light of Carl Nagels Babylonian Sacred Words of Power, which calls Adad the Babylonian God of Storms[/quote] hi iam new and i wanna ask dows the babylonian words work well?
is your 3d hexagram 2 4-sided pyramids?
I have found that pure, raw will power overcomes more then one might think.
It definitely does. However (and I think I’m paraphrasing EA here) imagine how powerful you could be if you funneled that pure raw will power into a sigil that has already been used for hundreds of years for protection. Don’t sell yourself short.
@Virdon Djinn, I tried your morphed exercise last night as a post ritual cleansing and I have to share. Some interesting events occurred during and after the exercise and, in fact, this post was interrupted by yet another out of the blue event. I am going to be working with this more.
Greetings can you show me this morph ritual and cleansing

This is the technique I basically use and recommend. Visualizing your aura surrounded by a shimmering energy field (or egg/cocoon of light) which absorbs and reflects negative energy.
