One of the repeat items we all have to deal with is
protection. This post is dedicated to energetic protection.
Let's start by getting a visual idea. The physical body has
an immune system to protect it from disease. We can either, support and
strengthen the immune system through supplements, a balanced lifestyle, dietary
choices etc., or we can weaken it through neglect of our physical bodies,
stress and toxic exposure.
Similarly, we
have a system that protects our energy bodies. Imagine yourself watching a
cartoon and you can virtually see the energy in vivid color. If the energetic
immune system is strong, the person is surrounded by a bubble of bright light
possibly tinted in light shades of gold, white, pink, violet or green. This
bubble allows light to filter through and purifies/transforms shadows and slimy
green energies heading its way. Like a trampoline, unfit energetic clusters
bounce off, so that the soul within the protection bubble can maintain its
truthful self-expression. As you know from experience, there are times when we
happily cruise through life, well protected, capable of holding our alignment
even in the midst of challenging energetic circumstances, while at other times
the slimy green and black specks make it through and we get sick. When that
happens we want to apply some tools to strengthen our protection and to learn
valuable lessons, as to why our energetic immune system was compromised in the
first place.
1. First of all a couple of 101 reminders:
a) Darkness is the absence of light.
b) The Divine Forces (i.e. Guardian Angles) are not allowed
to help unless you ask for it.
So the first thing you want to do when you feel like your
protection has been undermined or you need a boost, ask for help!
c) Ask the divine beings to put a protective bubble of white
light around your whole being in all time and all space (Visualization of a
space-suit like white bubble where negative energies bounce off,
Chakra-Meditation (see post), Flower Essences i.e. Golden Armor by Green Hope
Farm (see post on Flower Essences) are useful additions to this step).
2. Get in the habit of regular energy clearings. The same
way you need to take a shower to maintain your physical cleanliness, it is
important to cleanse your aura, home and work space regularly in order to keep
your energetic immune system strong. If we go back to our cartoon image you can
see that if there are grey smudges in our light bubble, they would appear like
cracks and these cracks can undermine our protection (If you are not familiar
with clearing procedures yet, I will dedicate a future post just on clearing,
in the meantime you might wish to already read the post: The importance of art
and objects).
3. If you are dealing with a continuous collapse of your
energy protection it is important to start troubleshooting since there are many
possible reasons why a soul creates energy cracks due to internal, karmic
patterns (read posts on Psychic Sponges, Energy Vampires, Enchantments and
Curses).
a) The first step is always to have the awareness and ask
the right questions.
Observe the situation and notice if a pattern has been
established: "Every time I meet with so-and-so I feel drained. I wonder
why?" "Whenever I go to crowded places, I start to feel heavy and
tired. What is the reason that I can't stay in my frequency yet?"
b) Scan your system for negative/unresolved emotions like
guilt, fear and empathy. We all have moments where we don't feel like we
deserve to be in the light and
well-protected while we see other souls suffer. That is one
of the things we all have to learn on our path to enlightenment. Can you enjoy
your own good karma while others are still battling in hell? Do you allow
yourself to have full divine support, even though you have made mistakes? How
scared are you of other people's jealousy towards you if things start going too
well? Are you addicted to drama because you are getting love and attention from
your environment when you suffer? Is your soul committed to suffering because
you feel that is the only way you are going to learn and evolve?
These are just a few examples that can lead you to potential
internal saboteurs.
When you find an internal aspect that undermines your
protection find ways to transmute that aspect. Often times, it is as simple as
to make a different choice.
I.e. I am choosing to lead by example and stay in the light,
because I can. That way I'll inspire the souls around me to do the same. Other
people's jealousy is not my problem; my job is to stand in my truth, not to be
a slave to other's dysfunctions. I am here as a student, not a master of this
reality; therefore I do deserve a second chance and forgive myself for any
wrong doings.
Going back to the cartoon example, the negative emotions
have the power to create cracks from the inside. When you fill the cracks with
light by transforming the negativity your bubble once more will be intact.
4. As always, this is by no means a complete guide on
protection. Add any other tool and method that works for you and stay open and
curious, Awareness is the key and all the answers needed will be provided, just
stay open and curious!
