@journeywithme2 Does not sound crazy at all. Thank you so much for reminding on this key energy work.

I taught psychic protection in our Center's Development Classes for years. Psychic/Etheric Protection should be a daily thing, by everyone, not just empaths. Psychic protection is as important as brushing your teeth or washing your face, rather than something to use only during a crisis or dark time. It also works best if you choose one visual/affirmation/technique. It is best to reiterate your visual or statement throughout your day, starting when you first wake up, at the beginning of every meditation, when you get in your car or walk into a room or store full of people, and always as you go to sleep. This should take no more than a moment once you have decided on what visual or words you are going to use. And of course, any time you feel fearful, reiterate it, as much as you feel you need. If you find yourself repeating it in your mind during a time of fear, just go with it. It strengthens in power every time you place the thought into the Universe.
The first step in determining what you see or say is which “name” (there are many) of the Creator/Protecting Energy with which you resonate. This can be an angel, or “Father/Mother God, or Kuan Yin, Buddha, Mary, Jesus, Krishna, Ganesha” whichever name for the Creator or Higher Being that you believe in, and are comfortable with. The final protection visual or words should not be a long drawn-out event, but simply a statement into the Universe. This sets protection into the etheric with strength and emphasis, and becomes a personal shield. I like to visualize myself in what I call a “Glinda the Good” sphere, which is made of Christ and Buddha Consciousness. I put it around myself, my car, my house, my loved ones. Like literal shields/fences, your protection statement needs care and sometimes repair or adjustments, just like literal boundaries.
The more you voice it, the more powerful it will become.
The etheric is not a solid dimension; using the energy of the etheric requires repetition and belief to keep thoughts solid. Sometimes it can stop a situation, and sometimes it can mitigate it. Sometimes it is miraculous. When I was five months pregnant with my youngest son, and was driving my eldest son and my sister to lunch, we were hit head on by a drunk driver. At the time, I called my protection “White Light” as a way to tell my young son about protection. “Christ consciousness” was not a viable understanding for him at that age. We were all in the front seat. When the drunk hit us, I was somehow pushed sideways over my son by an invisible energy. The steering wheel was pushed in exactly where I was sitting, yet not only was I not even bruised, but my child was born on his due date four months later. Neither my older son nor my sister were hurt. We were all shook up, and I suppose, bruised, but none of us were injured in any serious manner. (These boys are 45 and 52 now!) At the hospital, my son, who was normally a talkathon, had been very quiet. The nurse asked him how he felt. His response was, “My Mom always puts the White Light around us. (Pause) But it was still scary.” The nurse wasn’t quite sure what to do with that, so she just smiled. The car was considered totaled. It was towed away. There is no way three people in the front seat of a car hit head-on would be uninjured, let alone a pregnant woman. Yet that is exactly what happened. These days, I tend to think in terms of “Christ and Buddha Light” still formed into that “Glenda the Good Sphere,” but it is really that same “White Light” my first teacher told me to use, not just while being an intuitive reader, but for everyday life.
Find what you resonate with, and then strengthen it throughout each day. It may not keep the evils of the world always completely away or inert or weak, but it will give you strength, trust, and the awareness of both the visible and invisible around you, as you go about your life. It isn’t magic, it is belief and trust in that which we cannot see. To quote a song by Richard Marx and Linda Thompson:
And isn't faith believingAll power can't be seen.
But invisible protection IS most certainly “there.” You just have to believe and trust in it.
Namaste ❤️
My issue is that people sometimes like to attach themselves to me, presumably because they know that I '"see" them and I care, and I will (usually) listen. I can't be everyone's mama, or savior, or therapist. So I tend to keep a wall up to some extent. And I sometimes deliberately avoid people who keep coming to me.
I'm an introvert who needs a lot of space, and time in my own head. I admire people who are able to be everyone's mama or daddy, but I can't do it. How do such people maintain any boundaries?
@tesseract About 5 yrs ago maybe, I got into my car and heard “thank St Michael for keeping you safe in the car.”
I paused, looked around, and didn’t argue! “Thank you St Michael for keeping me safe in the car.” I say it every time now, not out of fear but to remind myself that I’m protected.
@ana I believe that my boundaries are effective even when I empathise with and care about others. However, it's important not to blur the lines between myself and others to the extent that I take on their feelings as if they were my own. I am always aware that I am a unique individual with my own thoughts and feelings, and they are a different person with theirs. It's great to be able to understand and have compassion for others' feelings! But I always remember that their feelings are theirs and that they don't become my own feelings. If I keep this in mind, I am free to say 'yes' or 'no' to my counterpart. I am free to say 'yes' or 'no' whenever I like, and doing so helps me maintain healthy boundaries while I can be a really good mama - if I said yes to it. Otherwise, I may become overwhelmed by their feelings and lose track of my own feelings. Therefore, it's important to me when I am compassionate, to be always aware also of my own feelings and not get fully caught up in the other person's emotions. If I find myself getting caught up, the most important thing is to focus again on my own feelings and make them a priority. To do this, I need to be aware that I have every right to do so. Having compassion for my counterpart is enough; it makes me a wonderful, kind and caring person. However, I don't have to become one with the other person. If I would, I would not be able to keep my abilities to be a caring person for the other person in need.
@earthangel Archangel Michael is my protector where ever I am. I asked Creator to send him to me to watch over me in some very severe circumstances and he has been with me ever since.
I ask for spiritual protection, but I have to be honest with you:
There are some individuals when they are in the same city make me feel ill, and I am unsure if I am just picking up on the energy of the collective, but I doubt it. It's almost as if my "antennae" recoil and wither. And then I feel like I need to take a shower or something after.
I try to add rose or frankinscense to clear it, but it is not enough.
Thank you all for sending good energy. You know who you are.
@anya Being a caregiver, especially 24/7 in your home, can literally drain the life out of you. I cared for my mother with Alzheimer's for several years, and it is true that many caregivers pass on before those they are caring for, because the unrelenting responsibility and stress is draining. The brief 1-hour per day that hospice came to shoulder that responsibility, was the relief and highlight of my day. The best thing you can do for yourself & those you look after, is to take a 1/2 day once a week (more if necessary), to get away in a different environment, and release all thoughts of responsibility during that time; just enjoy taking a fresh cleansing breath so you have the energy to carry on. We often tend to internalize our stress and show a calm exterior while inside we're in a crushing frenzy of worry, fear, anticipation, and many other self-destructive feelings. Shortly after my mother passed, I was in intensive care for heart issues I've never experienced before. Then depression and feelings of my own impending death (partially brought on by the heart meds, I think). Not a happy time. Took years for me to recover and feel "normal" again. So, do take those breaks from unrelenting stress and being constantly alert and 'on guard' in order to protect your gentle soul; you will have another chapter of life ahead of you.
@anya To care for a family with several ageing people, I would recommend to you a choreographed campaign from a light being team. For a choreographed campaign by a light being team, you need three things: the campaign, the light being team and the choreography. Go into meditation with your Higher Self and those of the people to be cared for. Ask that the Higher Selves call and send you the best corresponding light being team - these can be angels, people, animals, plants, etc. Then go into meditation with the light being team, your Higher Self and the Higher Self of the people to be cared for. Ask all the Light Beings and Higher Selves involved for a joint care campaign and a joint choreography of it, and pray that it is in complete unity with the will of the highest Creator and that it is for the highest good of all involved. Then trust and allow the miracles that go with it to happen in your life. Your personal part of the choreographed campaign can this way be exactly suited to your powers and your abilities and your growth potentials. Namaste
