Spirit energies are always present, whether we notice them or not. Many people have experienced some form of interaction or presence at home, but they are often overlooked, especially if it is subtle.
The nature of this experience will differ from person to person, depending on their level of openness to the supernatural as well as their beliefs and fears. To some, it is a form terror. Others find it comforting.
Let’s see how these energies can affect your life and how to clean up your environment if necessary.
- Attitudes and beliefs about Spirit Energies
Your level of skepticism or open-mindedness in regards to the supernatural will also define your experiences. If you are comfortable with spirits, and you acknowledge their existence, you will be more comfortable in their presence.
It’s not only about how you grew up, but about your culture. A spirit’s presence can be primarily about love and protection. However, it could also serve as a warning or guidance. This mindset focuses on the positive aspects of a spiritual experience rather than fear.
If you’ve been skeptical about them before, you may react with fear when you detect something unusual. You feel scared because you don’t know what’s happening.
Most people fear things they don’t understand, but they also associate these things with evil forces.
This may also be related to the way spirits are portrayed in the media. Most commonly, they are defined as frightening encounters. People who are skeptical will naturally associate them with demonic entities since they’re portrayed as harmful.
- Spirit Entities Types
The different types of spirits can also influence your experience. Spirits can have many different intentions and come from a variety of origins. Most often, the spiritual presences in your home are your deceased loved ones.
Not all spirits are bad. There are also many positive spirits who enjoy your company, spend time with you, and help you.
There are also spirit guides or family spirits, as well as the classic guardian Angels, who are more likely to assist in serious situations. They are warm and give a sense of peace, but there are still people who don’t believe in them.
You’ll feel more comfortable if you’re open to this kind of encounter.
On the other side, there are spirits with unresolved issues and negative thoughts. They are easy to identify by the feelings they produce, such as annoying noises, cold spots, or even aggressive behavior.
- Assessing the true intentions of a spirit
Fear is a natural reaction when dealing with spiritual presences, but it can escalate to cause excessive fear and distress.
A lack of tolerance can also be dangerous, as people may encourage negative activities and put themselves in danger.
Understanding how spirits work, and their intentions is key to finding the perfect balance.
It’s important that you interact with the spiritual activity to understand its purpose before making a decision. A objective evaluation will help you determine whether you misunderstand or have false beliefs.
After you have assessed yourself, try to determine if the spirit is attempting to communicate. Do you feel comfortable in your own skin? Do you feel hurt? The right boundaries are the foundation of a balanced relationship.
You can clean the environment if you decide to get rid of the spirit.
- How to Clean Your Environment
Here are some techniques to help you chase away a spirit.
- First, emotional healing. Bad energies attract negative spirits. You must remove such energies from your home. Speak to your partner, sort out your family or seek professional help.
- Smudging is a great way to purify the air. Incense can be used to cleanse all areas of your home. You can also burn sweetgrass or sage to clear the air and set your intentions.
- Purification of water is equally important. According to your religious beliefs you can sprinkle holy water around to chase away bad spirits. Recite blessings as you do this.
- Create a positive barrier or space with your imagination. Visualize angels surrounding you. This light can be imagined, but it will protect you from unwanted energies.
- Clean your home from the inside out. Decluttering and getting rid of negative items is part of a general cleaning process. Avoid anything that brings back bad feelings.
- Sprinkle salt around the house to keep away unwanted spirits. It has cleansing properties so sprinkle it around windows, doors, and walls. You can make your own salt-based cleaning spray and use it for your cleaning tasks.
- Some crystals are better than others for protection. Amethyst and black tourmaline, for example, are perfect for any home. They absorb negative energy, so place them near doors and windows.
- Other protective symbols may also be helpful, depending on your religious or spiritual beliefs. Examples include the Star of David and the Eye of Horus, among others.
- Mirror reflections can be just as useful. Place small mirrors on doors and windows. Make sure they face outward. They will reflect away negative spirits.
Before deciding what you should do, it is important to identify the spirit’s nature. Your beliefs will determine how you interact. There are ways to avoid a spiritual presence in your home, no matter how uncomfortable you feel.
