This protection idea is a simple technique you can use
anywhere/anytime to keep yourself away from harmful psychic
forces other people make in contact near to you. It has been
tried and proven as effective.
Simply put, just imagine a boundary/shield/force field surrounding yourself when in doubt of any people who are near. There are unlimited ways to make this. Using the hands, circle completely around yourself while picturing a shield of an electric force field. Imagine your force field to be so solid that nothing can penetrate. Follow it all around your body or simply imagine a rigid flat field in front of you. Imagine it harder than the hardest steel, totally safe from any person's harm. Use the imagination often to develop your boundary any way you want. Be creative.
You will notice that, yes, when some people come into contact with this shield, it will actually make a static "zzzz" at the point of someone going into it. You might also experience a "boing" or "bang" phenomenon as other people's energy bounces harmlessly off your shield. IT IS MAN-MADE BUT A REAL AND LIVING THING, although temporary. It will weaken if there is doubt of it's effectiveness and strengthen if there is faith. The main symbol is a circle.
As a circle limits, so you will find that this
force can limit/slow you down during normal talking/being/doing
things in the world. This is a normal thing that happens. It is
an effect of a circle which can define things helpfully, but, at
the same time circumscribes/limits things. Work with this feeling
of limitation. Don't panic. Just accept it and you will once
again be able to act and have your shield at the same time.
As an artificial made thing, it is subject to ending. To some,
it can be like an outer branch of a tree grown too large for
support, so it hangs low, like a burden. But let me tell you- it
works.
Wherever you use it you will find it to work. You might not
even notice it helps at times when it does. But, it can be a
fortress of rock, a temple of safety from the world, an abode of
the best brick, the strongest concrete blocks with the doors and
windows safely bolted shut.
I often used to panic when people on the street would walk into my space. Something seemed wrong about a particular person walking near. The panic was an indication something was being invaded/violated in myself, or was about/had a chance to be. Very often, sure enough, the person would mumble/say/shout something as a mocking gesture, usually just as they were walking by me. What was happening was I was giving out a signal that I was soft/weak/vulnerable. That's all some sick people need to take out their aggression, verbally, using you as the scapegoat.
I no longer panic or hurt very much when angry or intimidating
people come into my sight on the street. I remain humble but calm
in knowing I am safe, even though I have a funny feeling about
someone near me.
I also carry pepper spray and have learned self defense, which
adds to my calmness.
In the end I finally come down to a personal, spiritual question- what will God say when he knows I used such an artificial thing in my life? Well, I am counting on him to forgive me and let me move on to other things, rather than dooming me to fight my own shadows as an enemy forever. God helps those who help themselves. In a final closing, treat this idea of protection always as a special gift and you will be rewarded. As with all gifts, prayer, meditation, conjuration, invocation, contemplation,(whatever!) on this gift of protection will reap some rewards.
