Fear of Psychic Abilities Part 1
I was reading an article tonight and it was talking about when you open up your psychic abilities, you will be attacked by all kind of negative energies. People would have you think that when develop psychic abilities you will be attacked by…well…EVERYTHING.
Somehow you would become wide open and people would suck out all your energy. Then all kinds of negative things would we swirling all around, just waiting to attack you. Psychic vampires would be hiding behind every door. You would be glowing in the dark, signaling, “Come and get me. I am wide open. I am helpless. I am vulnerable. I am weak.”
So the article got me thinking, “Holy cow, no wonder people are afraid, if they believe all this stuff.”
Let me offer a little reassurance here. I studied psychic energy at the Institutes for 9 years. And, since I was so interested in the process, I would conduct experiments, every day, on my own. In all that time, and all that intensity, I was never attacked by outside forces, or energies, or anything scary. Nor have I ever had those experiences to this day.
The one negative thing I will tell you is what I did experience. Once when I was doing a meditation, a “friend” of mine psychically attacked me at a time when I was vulnerable. He had arrived at class late and saw a chance to get me. It was a power play on his part. He did not like me being more powerful than him, and he decided to attack me when I had no protection.
In a classroom, atmosphere when there is trust of your fellow classmates, all protection is down. And, yes, if you voluntarily lower your psychic protection to someone, you can be vulnerable. This particular classmate was almost kicked out of the classes because of what he had done.
That is the only instance in which I was attacked. And let me give you a word of advice when you attack someone you are then the vulnerable one.
“What do you mean by that?”
The student who psychically me had to use his own psychic energy to do it. Then I could read everything about him off of his energy. He would have been at my mercy if I had decided to retaliate. But instead, I felt so sorry for him that I felt the urge to actually protect HIM.
My psychic problems are more with psychic vampires. Psychic vampires are people who drain your energy. They are usually friends, acquaintances, or family members. In other words, they are people close to you that you are more open with.
Psychic vampires primarily do their energy sucking through conversation, they talk to you and then they leave the room full of energy. And you feel very weak. That type of person drains everyone around them if they can. They thrive on other people’s energy, since they don’t know how to replenish their own energy in a more natural way.
Most of the time, my being drained some by psychic vampires is in the form of “You have to help me. You have to listen to my problems.” And those problems are never-ending.” Psychic vampires don’t want to solve their problems, they just want to whine about how bad their lives are. They can get you so tied up in their lives that you can’t live your own life.
I suppose you could call that a psychic attack, since they do take your energy, but it seems so natural, almost like a part of life. It is not scary. And besides a psychic vampire causes only a slight problem, it is really easy to go get some more energy.
I guess the worst attribute of a “psychic vampire” is their sneakiness. They drain your energy before you even know what is happening.
I get a lot of questions from people who are afraid of psychic vampires. They are afraid of having their energy stolen. They panic. They fear they won’t have any energy left. They think they will be so weak, they will never recover.
The way to handle a psychic vampire is just to walk away from them. Don’t engage in conversations with them. Just say, “No.”
But if you insist on interacting with psychic vampires then you better learn how to replenish the energy you will lose. To get some more energy just go outside, take your shoes off and visualize energy coming back into your body, up through your feet. Or better still go to the beach and get some good energy there.
This is no big deal, there is energy everywhere. It might be a little inconvenient, but no real problem.
Psychic vampires are a nuisance, but nothing to be fearful of. So relax and enjoy playing with psychic energy.
Read my lips…
Oops, I forgot you can’t see me.
I will try to raise my voice a little.
“Can you hear me now?”
Developing your psychic abilities is not scary. It is fun. It is exciting. Sometimes you will be so uplifted you will feel like you are walking on air. The best, most exciting time of my life was spent during those years at the Institute spending my days testing the limits of reality.
Tomorrow, in Part 2 we will talk about beliefs and psychic energy and I will give you a very easy psychic shield to use.
