Energetic protection

You can clear or release any kind of energy

Right now, around the world, the energy of fear is rampant. Also, variations of the energy of anger / frustration / impatience / blame seem to be in plentiful supply.

Many of us who have some interest in our spiritual path are sensitive and intuitive. Sensitive people are more likely than others to be affected by the emotional and mental energy around them – and you may not know it. It feels like your own emotion. You really do experience the physical symptoms of fear or anger or sadness.

Your energy, emotions and thought processes are big factors in your quality of life. When you are feeling out of sync, it is useful to ask, “How much of this is mine?”

·      If much of the energy we are experiencing is yours, you can ask for guidance and support to move through it or release it.

·      If much of what you are feeling is not yours, you can ask to clear this energy in a comfortable way that allows you to do the things you want to do.

·      As always, when you clear any kind of negative energy, be sure to specify what kind of energy you would like to experience instead.

The universe always honors your choices – whether or not that’s obvious!

Put it into practice

The next time you are feeling anxious, sad, angry or just out of sorts, ask, “How much of this is mine?” and see if a number pops into your mind.

·      If the answer is a small number, that indicates that most of the uncomfortable energy is not yours. Ask if you can clear the energy in a manner that is comfortable for you and allows you to do the things you would like to do.

Or, you can simply ask to release all of this energy from your energy field in the easiest, quickest and most comfortable way possible and that it go somewhere that it can do good. Specify what kind of energy you would like to experience instead.

·      If the answer is a larger number, that suggests much of the uncomfortable energy is in fact coming from within you. Ask if there is some service this feeling is trying to offer you, or some message it would like you to understand.

You may find it helpful to have a coach or guide or trusted friend to help you with this process. If nobody is around, you might use journaling or a “dialogue with parts of yourself” technique to receive whatever service or message is available to you.  

 (I can help guide you through that process. If you’d like to arrange a private session with me, you can book an appointment at https://calendly.com/bonnie-hutchinson/inner-wisdom)

Once you understand more about the source of the uncomfortable energy, ask that it be released to go somewhere it can do good. Specify what kind of energy you would like to experience instead (for example, the energy of joy, confidence, calm, love…).

Energetic clearing and protection for locations

Imagine that you are out in space, looking back at the earth. Pick a spot where you sense there are clouds or pockets of dark or heavy energy that could be affecting the people who live there. It could be the energy of fear or confusion or anger or sadness. It doesn’t matter what name you give it. It’s just generic “heaviness” that weighs people down and clouds their thoughts and emotions.

Imagine that you have the ability to send little whirlwinds of white cleansing energy, whisking away the dark and heavy energy and sending it to someplace where it can do good. Then replace the heavy energy with whatever kind of energy is most appropriate at this time. (You don’t even need to know what kind of energy that is. Just state your intention that the replacing energy is whatever is most appropriate for the highest good at this time.)

Energetic protection 

Sometimes, even if you do not usually take on energies that are not yours, you may find yourself in a situation that is highly charged, where there is much fear or anger or sadness or confusion. If you know you’re going into a situation like that, imagine that you have “energetic protection.”

For example, you can imagine that you are inside a pillar of white light, or a bubble of loving pink energy. Imagine you are protected by whatever is the perfect kind of energy for you to be safe and even flourish. You will be fully present, able to see and hear what is happening, and you will be protected from any unhelpfuI energy.

I had a friend once who, when she was heading into a situation where there was likely to be dark energy, would imagine that she was wearing a swirly wizard’s cloak. No dark energy could affect her. She actually looked forward to occasions when she’d energetically put on her wizard’s cloak.

If ever there was a time…

It’s a turbulent time for humanity and the planet. We’re surrounded by unhappy and unhelpful energies. At the same time, all of us, all over the globe, are in circumstances we’ve not experienced before. If ever there was a time to be attentive to protecting ourselves from energy that does not serve us, this is the time.

Reflection question

What is one way you can protect yourself energetically
when you’re in an environment with turbulent or low-vibration energy? 

What can you do to send light to locations or circumstances
that appear to have much unhelpful energy?
