Demystifying Entities, Part Three
How the heck do these things attach or, even worse, get inside our systems?
Welcome to Part Three in my ongoing series about entities! It feels a bit odd to say that I am happy to finally share this hard-earned wisdom with an appreciative audience. I still have a part of me that thinks this is bonkers and I shouldn’t tell anyone. Nonetheless, I am feeling a sense of satisfaction and relief in writing about this and learning that it resonates with and connects the dots for so many.
Have you read the first two installments yet? If not, you should start here first: Part One & Part Two. I share some of the experiences that have shaped my beliefs and understanding, from the spirit that “stuck” to me after a visit to Paris to the friend I lost to a powerful entity possession some years ago.
To review, I define an entity as: a living, intelligent being that has a distinct and separate existence from the rest of you and has a harmful effect. We have also discussed where entities come from (lots of places!) and why they are seeking to attach to humans (working through you is the most effective way to wield influence on Earth).
Now I am going to turn our attention to another question that I’m sure you’ve been asking yourself: How do entities attach to me or others and what can I do about it? This is an important question so let’s dive in!
I’ve previously covered that not all entities are able or interested in becoming parasitical. There are many reasons for this. You might have a really secure defense system that they cannot penetrate. You might not believe that an entity could attach to you or that they even exist. Or perhaps they’re just along for the ride, looking for another suitable host. Maybe your environment is less tolerable than they thought so they jump ship. The entity might not be strong enough to become a full-on energy parasite, either.
But what if you have weak defenses, you’ve met a really strong entity, and you think, nah, could never happen to me? Well, in the words of the late Steve Irwin, “Danger danger danger!”
Someone asked this week how I was so sure about all of this and how I know what I am sharing. If you can’t guess by now, it’s because I have had parasitical entities myself and luckily for all of us, I have learned a lot from these experiences. This falls under the category of life learnings that I can’t undo or forget. And sometimes I kinda wish I could, if I can be totally honest with you. Knowledge comes at a price and with responsibility and of course I learned that after I was being so open and curious with every kind of energy out there. Oops.
Let’s answer that first question and today, I’ll be using myself and my story as the example. How do entities get in? The simple answer is that get in where you have a weak point. They get in where you hold false beliefs about yourself, where there’s a chink in your armor, and where you are likely to make a tradeoff or agreement for whatever it is they might promise you.
For a moment, I want to you imagine yourself as the sum total of all your experiences, all the beliefs you hold about yourself and others and the thoughts and feelings you have on a daily basis. This is a (reductive) view of a layer of your energy body. It’s part of the intangible essence of you. This is not to be confused with your soul, which is a different yet connected, part of you. What I am asking you to picture is a roughly humanoid-shaped layer of energy that surrounds your physical body, comprised of the things I mentioned and more. There will also be ancestral imprints, trauma scars, the record of pregnancy losses, and your deep desires, just to name a few more components. These are the bits of data that I pick up when I am doing a healing session with someone and my job is to work with this entire system to bring communication and coherence within it, which creates healing. Many times, these bits of data in your energy body correspond with a physical part of your body. For example, if I have a client who has pregnancy losses and I am shown that, it will typically show up in the womb area.
I have noticed that a lot of identity issues tend to hang out around the solar plexus. In my experience, I find this area to be the “seat of self,” and it often holds issues around confidence, identity, and gut-level instincts. I share this because this is the exact area that I had an opening and therefore, the exact area that this parasitical entity got “in.”
Before you completely freak out, I want to be clear that entities do require consent. I consented to this thing, whether I fully knew and understood it or not. Our ignorance is precisely how entities take advantage of us and our lack of belief. All the better if we don’t think they exist! All the better if we think everything is love and light! All the better if you think, that could never happen to me! All the better if we think that just because a being says they are “good,” that means they are really good! Dear reader, I wish it were that simple. Sadly, humans are in a state of energetic toddlerhood and though we are growing rapidly, there are some who are actively working against us. Do not despair because there are just as many beings, if not more, who are working just as hard to help us and *spoiler alert* the game is already decided. Humanity made a collective decision some years ago to move up and out of the mess we made and there’s no going back. More on that another time.
I’m going to share a highly redacted and simplified version of my story and let’s see how many red flags you spot on the way. A few years ago, I became aware of someone who was sharing a message that sounded too good to be true. They said that everything I had been previously taught was wrong and there was a better way. They seemed to have all the answers and I envied their lifestyle. I had some misgivings about how this person spoke to others but I brushed it aside because, truth be told, I wanted to build a stronger voice myself. They made me feel special and singled me out for attention. I was in a place of great instability in my life and this was exactly the confidence boost I needed. I had always struggled with feeling weird, fitting in, and never could explain my gifts in a way that made sense to others. Suddenly, someone was there who explained everything! This person told me I was exceptional, though not as exceptional as them. They offered me a super easy way to continue the connection and promised to teach me everything I needed to know. I bought into the whole thing because it sounded so much better than anything I had been told before. I bypassed and ignored many, many things because the power of feeling special, included, and valued was the exact elixir I needed for all the spots I held wounds of being excluded, bullied, and shamed.
Over time, this connection had an increasingly terrible and haunting effect on my life, my body, and my family. I gained weight. I looked puffy and bloated. No matter how I ate or what I did to work out, my body wouldn’t (couldn’t) shift. I was exhausted all the time and wanted mostly to be left alone. I was irritable and unkind with my family, a truly sad thing that I am still repairing. I lost other people in my life and couldn’t see how this connection was affecting me because I was absolutely hypnotized. Or, more accurately, I was possessed by a parasitical entity to which I consented unknowingly. And no one could tell me anything about it because there was a cold arrogance that overtook my usual generous, warm energy. I could not see it until the spell was broken. And after that, I couldn’t unsee it. Once the spell is broken and the wound is healed, there is no going back.
One of the first things I noticed (and tucked away in my mind) was that I couldn’t make my eyes “look happy,” even when I genuinely felt happy. Looking back, I shudder. See for yourself the “during” and “after” photos.
These photos were taken exactly a year apart. Both days I took the photo, I felt happy. And before you ask, yes, both photos are edited/filtered. The photo on the left is heavily edited because I spent 30 minutes trying to take a selfie that captured my joy and… I couldn’t. I couldn’t get my eyes or my energy to covey joy, only heaviness. So I “fixed” it with a photo editing app, added filters and lighting, fixed my skin and even tried to add some light into my eyes. As you can see, I had limited success. On the right, a year later, I had spontaneously lost a few pounds after the entity was removed and my inner joy and peace had no trouble showing up in my eyes. There’s some skin-smoothing filter from Instagram but that’s it. Apart from the exact distance of a year apart, I chose these photos because both are selfies, both are filtered, neither one is a forced smile, and I’m even wearing similar colors. Whew. What a journey it has been.
How many red flags did you notice in my story? How many times did I ignore a misgiving or doubt? More times than I can even count, I promise. The way that parasitical entities work is by cutting you off from your heart and muting your senses. So even though I had misgivings, I found excuses. If my heart felt heavy, I hardly knew because my senses were highly influenced by something else. My usual intuition was offline and the whole time, I had thought this could never happen to me. The parasite let me go a pretty far distance from the connection point but it was never going to let me go willingly.
What finally changed this for me? A friend who had the same entity called me to tell me about the removal she had and as soon as she told me, I knew it was true. I called a trusted healer who worked specifically with these things and she removed it. The healing began immediately. I could share so much more of this story and maybe someday I will. For now, you know what is most important.
Some will tell you that entities only hang out in “low vibrations” and I want to be very clear that that is too simplistic to be fully true. We all have “low” and “high” vibrations within us and they don’t translate into “bad” and “good.” They simply are. As for so-called “low” vibrations? I have yet to meet a person who carries no shame, no remorse, no wounding. This, dear reader, is part of being human. Terrible things can happen here which leave terrible impacts and scars on each of us. We are the sum of our parts, our experiences, and the people we come from. Not all of those things are “high vibe” and that is ok.
I can hear you asking, “So what do I do? How do I protect myself? What if I think that I or someone I love has a parasitical entity?”
I will go into great detail about this in the next installment of this series. For now, what I want to leave you with is the simple but never easy answer to the first question about self-protection: You must heal all the places in yourself where you believe you are less than, where you hold shame, where there’s a pull to get love because your own love doesn’t live there.
Simple. Not easy. And, of course, this is what I do so you’re welcome to reach out, stay connected, subscribe, or work with me.
As an example of what I speak of, I will share the prayer that spontaneously arose as I sat in contemplation with the two photos of myself above.
I love both of these women in the photos. I love myself without condition, to the best of my ability. I forgive myself for not knowing what I didn’t know. I forgive myself for putting myself in harm’s way. I love the little one inside who needed to be loved and was reaching for love however she could find it. I love myself now and forever, I heal myself through space and time, I break the spell of anything or anyone who would wish me harm, even unintentionally. I call all of myself home now and reject any energies that do not serve the Highest Good for All, within and without.
You are so much more than you were told. You are so much more loved than you think. And now is a great time to start remembering. Until next time!
