Never Neglect Your Psychic Defenses

Experienced psychics and mediums understand the importance of spiritual practice and energy work for psychic protection. Responsible readers and channelers know they must cleanse, clear, and shield their auric field on a regular basis. But many of us, including myself, are at times guilty of neglecting or even forgetting to properly maintain our energetic health and safety.

Although we all have access to an infinite supply of divine energy, and our soul is always protected by a higher power, we must bear in mind that we are in fragile physical form while we are in this world. We must therefore for maintain and protect ourselves, both physically and spiritually.

By neglecting to shield our personal energy field as professional psychics, mediums, and healers we do not only expose ourselves to undesirable energy interferences, but we potentially also jeopardize the quality of the guidance we offer to others.

Psychic empaths are especially vulnerable to various energies. When our auric defenses are down, we allow others to siphon energy off us (many doing so unintentionally). You usually know who those people are who ‘drain’ you more than others. Perhaps they are depressed, unwell, or just simply very ‘needy.’ Even pets can be needy, particularly when we are working with rescue animals.

Certain places and crowds can also be very draining. Emergency rooms, hospices, funeral homes, court rooms, or any space where there has been intense trauma, emotional distress, discord, violence or physical pain can have a detrimental effect on the well-being of the energetically sensitive person.

Psychic self-defense is one of the most important topics that I can teach. It is a useful practice for your every day life. When you are opening yourself up to the world of energy, there are things you need to be aware of, and precautions that you need to take ~ John Edward

Personally, I find I have become even more sensitive to other people’s energies since the Covid-19 pandemic. Although there are still days when I can leave home energized, do various errands, and return home feeling fine, this is becoming less frequent. These days, I more often leave home feeling great, only return home inexplicably drained!

A spiritual event I attended last week was just what I needed to remind me not to slack in my psychic protection. During a talk on ‘spirituality and spiritualism’ the facilitator reminded us to never underestimate how an angry or depressed person behind you in a supermarket queue can affect one’s energy, if you haven’t put on your psychic protection, particularly if you are feeling a bit vulnerable yourself.

The highlight for me was a wonderful protection meditation we did that is simple, yet powerful. The facilitator invited us to imagine ourselves sitting on a beautiful lotus flower, encompassed by its soft petals. Then, as we increasingly felt ourselves becoming calm and comfortable inside the protective flower cocoon, we envisioned ourselves becoming completely encircled by a clear crystal ball. Around this crystal ball a band of flames then flared up, emanating outward to deter and burn up any and all negative energy which may come near us.

Psychic protection is extremely important for everyone — especially those who practice magic, astrology, tarot, and mediumship. Basically, it’s using self-care as a defense against negativity and bad energy ~ Lisa Stardust

The talk certainly was a wake-up call for me. After so many years of unpleasant encounters and awful experiences involving bad vibes, one would think I might have learned my lesson by now. Well, I realize how irresponsible I have been in recent times, and I am now taking decisive steps to correct this.

An empowered, healthy aura normally serves as a protective barrier to external energies. Yet, for the spiritual practitioner and energy worker it is necessary to further fortify our auric protection as part of our daily lifestyle. This can be achieved through various metaphysical practices and techniques, which can range from very quick and simple to highly sophisticated.

No matter what practice or method you prefer, be sure to maintain your protection consistently. In future, I certainly intend to, no matter what.
