Thread: Guarding your energy

To be honest though, I think the guy is just so wound up in his miserable life that he can't help but to expel all of his crappy energy into my little spongyness. His emotional stench is so strong, just being in his house is enough to ruin my day. :/ But I've learned to set up shields and now its not so bad. I have three shields, seven if you include each individual layer of my third one. They really help in blocking out peep's emotional crud. Although, I do have one question. If you are in a crowded area, say at a large stadium at a football game or in a crowded school hallway, and all of the sudden, you feel this pain shooting through your brain, are you being mentally attacked? Let me clarify what the feeling is like. Its like someone takes a long slender blade and slices it through your brain, or someone placing a tin bucket on your head and then beating it with a baseball bat, or someone hitting you over the head with a bolt of lighting. It REALLY hurts, and it sometimes makes me physically stumble and my vision will go in and out. When this happens, I usually concentrate my shields and mentally draw myself in, and after a few painful throbs, the sensation leaves. I know its not a migraine, I know what those feel like, and it usually only happens in crowded places, so what is it? Would you consider this an attack from a psychic vampire, or something else?

It could be many things.

Learn some astral shielding techniques. Chanting is great for harmonizing ones own thoughts, and blocking out psychic pollution.

You are very accurate. I, myself, am a PV. I studied Social Dynamics as well as applicable Psychology and Sociology, which also gave me the ability to be a practicing Social Vampire. It came quite naturally. However, this was done as a survival mechanism. My father neglected me and my mother left; I was also living out of my car and working at a Cafe by age 17. Until the age of 25 I lived a transient life up and down the Eastern U.S. and into Canada. My social abilities were my ultimate survival tool, so learning how to not get pegged as a PV or SV was important. Also, it is just my way to manipulate people and social settings for the better. That which I take from people is happiness and belonging, however I have to get them to feel that way first so that I can share in it.

There are other ways than physical interaction to absorb the energy needed from other people... A photo of a happy-looking couple found on the ground at a gas station sat on my dashboard for a few days until I felt I had vamped all the positive energy to be had from that moment captured in time. Out of respect, I thin burned the picture.

There are PVs and SVs though that are nothing like me. The only thing you can do is extricate them from your life or ignore them completely. This can be challenging with more experienced people that would drain your energy.

EDIT: Another thing to look for is someone that exhibits strong Extrovert qualities then disappears and becomes a severe Introvert for a time before popping out again.

Also, as a side note... It is important not to confuse vampiric qualities with projection abilities. I read in this thread that someone felt they were getting all the negative emotions of their sad friend, as if their happiness is getting sucked into them. This would be vampiric only if your friend's behavior pattern changed afterward.

If he continues to be sad he may have untapped empathic projection, or the person themselves may have unrefined vampiric qualities and is accidentally sucking them from his friend. Ethical PVs do this on purpose to take away pain. There are not many ethical PVs or SVs for that matter... Especially if they discover their ability. Perhaps better that most walk around undeveloped.

EDIT: For the sake of not posting another post...

An Occult protection visualization is to imagine two snakes of the same color forming a circle around you by biting each other's tail. Now have the snakes rotate around your feet and then slowly, deliberately imagine the snakes rising up like a hoola hoop all the way to above the crown of your head. Then, imagine the snakes eat one another completely above your head and vanish. Any time you feel anything wrong with the flow of things, repeat this visualization.

You can also carry ground black pepper packets from McDonalds or something in your pocket. Pepper, not salt. Pepper is spiritually protective, salt is a spiritual deterrant or barrier.

I'm posting because I finally can without having to log-out and use the phone app. I hated having to do that but thought I was doomed to post that way forever.

But Shockwave must have completed all the improvements. Yipeee!!! I am stoked.



I am sooo happy

how about sociopaths?

Thanks for starting an interesting thread on Psychic Defense! Psychic Defense is needed especially if you practice Lucid Dreaming, Astral Travel or any other work on higher planes.

There are many different psychic protection techniques out there. Psychic Defense techniques are needed while you are still unexperienced on the higher planes. They are also very handy in our every day life since they can protect us from negative energy and there are special techniques that help to recover the energy you have lost in the past (turning off energy leakage in the past can give you a great energy boost in the present). I suggest looking deeper into the question of Psychic Defense if you want to feel safe on the higher planes.

I personally conducted an online seminar on psychic defense and it turned out to be a 9 hour webinar, and still not all the techniques were covered. The best Psychic Defense techniques is actually living in your own truth under protection from the your higher self! But until you reach that state there are always psychic defense techniques that you can use.
