Protecting Your Energy to Rise in Power

Warning: Intense Content. If you’re in the midst of a spiritual awakening crisis, come back later. Not for the faint-hearted or spiritual minors.
If you’re here, it’s likely because you already feel that call stirring within you, and know this, you’re not alone. What I’m about to share is heavy, but it’s meant to equip you with tools for maximum vibrational emancipation.

Awakening isn’t a one-and-done event or a fixed moment in time; it’s a long, spiritual process that engages every part of your being your energy, your psyche, your essence. Early on, opening your energetic centers and your channel (through energy work or trauma, for instance) inevitably attracts low-vibrational entities and energies from the astral plane. You don’t need to see them in the “dream world” to know they’re there. You’ll feel it through physical, energetic, and psychological symptoms. From confusion to outright horror, these entities use tactics from the realm of death to deceive you, posing as your guides, feigning love or alliance, or dominating through force, fear, or disorientation. You might feel your energy grow heavy, drained, or siphoned off. If you don’t take action, this can quickly lead to serious consequences for your health and balance.

These challenges are surmountable with the right tools, applied swiftly. See the Practical Protection Guide at the end of this article.

MY PERSONAL EXPERIENCE

Experiencing intense spiritual and energetic phenomena didn’t automatically mean I was “awake.” I knew parallel planes existed, but I didn’t realize that simply working on my shadow self would bring me face-to-face with low-vibrational astral entities. I was terrified of confrontation, so I stayed silent, did nothing, and pretended they were illusions. I was partially wrong.

It started with seduction promises of getting everything I wanted, here and beyond. I didn’t react. Then the manipulation shifted to fear, confusion, and force. Consent doesn’t exist in the realm of death. My channel was wide open, and back then, I couldn’t close it. Dreams and extrasensory experiences became unbearable. Until one day, realizing I had no choice, I confronted them one by one. “Scared of you? No, I fear God do you?” That stopped when I purged their absorbed energies and learned to close my channel at will. Now, I activate my protections through transcendental meditation before any work. Since then, no attacks. My autonomous keys are active.

12 RECURRING SYMPTOMS OF ASTRAL AND OCCULT ATTACHMENT OR INFLUENCE

The following symptoms are consistently reported by energy therapists, former occult practitioners, and individuals in awakening phases, as seen in forums and social networks:

Chronic fatigue or drained energy, as if an invisible force is sapping your vitality, often amplified during awakening.
Recurring nightmares, sleep paralysis, or vivid, disturbing dreams involving dark figures or attacks.
Sudden mood swings, irritability, or inexplicable emotions (sadness, anger, inner rage), as if intrusive thoughts are being imposed.
Unexplained physical pain, such as headaches, body aches, or tingling sensations, with no medical cause.
Feeling watched, sensing an invisible presence, or cold spots in your environment, causing vibrational discomfort where the ego becomes a receptor for lower-plane influences.
Intrusive or negative thoughts that don’t feel like your own, disrupting mental clarity during awakening. An attraction to the astral plane, making you easily manipulated or impressionable.
Disorientation, doubt, confusion, mental fog, or feeling disconnected from reality, as if your vital energy is fragmented.
Heart palpitations, chills, or sudden cold sensations, signaling an energetic imbalance.
Intense, recurring ear ringing, dizziness, or head pressure, sometimes accompanied by suffering, deceptive clairvoyance, or potential psychotic symptoms.
Personality changes or loss of interest in usual activities, including sexual energy.
Social isolation or disconnection from loved ones.
Visions, hallucinations, or hyper-realistic dreams involving entities, often during intensified awakening phases.

Note: Consult a mental health professional if psychological or psychic symptoms persist.

WHY DO SHADOW WORK?

Many people get trapped in the astral plane due to an open channel, lack of protection or keys, or unhealed wounds that act as entry points for these entities. All of these block ascension what I call the rise to power.

Shadow work is ESSENTIAL for vibrational emancipation!
Yes, it’s painful. This path isn’t always full of light, and anyone claiming otherwise doesn’t know what they’re talking about. The laws of the death realm are designed to trap souls. During every stage of awakening, as long as your channel work isn’t done, these entities persist and they don’t let go.

HOW TO PROTECT YOURSELF?

Would you leave your house wide open before going to work or sleep? It’s the same with your channel. When it’s left open (or partially open), parasitic energies slip in easily. Unresolved fears, shame, guilt, wounds, or traumas act as breaches that entities exploit.

The key is closing your channel while working on wounds and opening it only when necessary, such as:

Transmuting emotions tied to lower energy centers.
Healing other energy centers.
Connecting with your guides.

HOW TO DO IT EXACTLY?

You can use meditation and visualization. Picture your channel what form would it take? A pool of water? A door? A shield? How do you close it? With keys? Consult an energy therapist to guide you effectively.

WHAT I DO PERSONALLY

Today, my autonomous keys work. Still, before sleeping, I always close my channel like this and maybe it can help you too. The liminal state is that moment between worlds, neither fully awake nor asleep, where you can shape your energy.

The first time I accessed the liminal state, it felt like walking a tightrope of energy between waking and sleeping, where I had to stay “conscious” in that reality to avoid slipping. That’s where I close my channel.

In the liminal state, I manipulate my energy. I trace three giant clockwise circles, three squares in the same direction, and three crosses from the upper left to the lower right and upper right to the lower left. I share this as an exercise below.

PRACTICAL PROTECTION GUIDE

Exercise:

Breathe deeply to center yourself.
Visualize tracing three circles around you, like a shield.
Add three squares.
Seal with three crosses to lock your energy.

These shapes create an energetic barrier against intrusions.
If you can’t access the liminal state before sleep, affirm three times: “My energy is protected, my channel is closed” to anchor it.

In the articles that follow in this series, we’ll dive deeper into the risks of neglecting this work, how to connect with higher guides, and how to activate protections, especially keys.

Feel free to share your experiences.
Take good care of yourself.
