Spirits Drawn to Darkness: The Link Between Negative Mental States and Spirit Attraction

Dear Friends

M

y siblings and I grew up in a yard situated in a very rural town on the island of Jamaica. Our land was very fruitful with citrus fruits, cashew trees, mangoes, and other goodies cultivated by my father. As a child, I loved our space and often explored the terrain with my older brothers. In my neck of the woods, when people die they are often buried on the land of the family home. My first memory of a tomb was one that sat on our property underneath a massive avocado pear tree. I can't say I fully remember what the story of that death was, or the person enclosed within, but it was there. The adjoining land to our property was also a graveyard. I can remember having scintillating playtime on all those graves. We would skip, hop, jump and even laze atop them. Awwwww the joys of childhood innocence because we were never scared!!

 Fast forward a few years later it began to feel like everything that could go wrong went wrong. My mom had a terrible motor vehicle accident and was away from home for almost 9 months. My most beloved sister even got pregnant and left home. I started to feel the weight of the world on me. Following that, I lost one of my brothers to gun violence. My whole being began to be even more detached and devoid of happiness. The land I roamed so freely as a child has now taken on an eerie feel everywhere I went. All light became darkness and my sweet dreams turned to nightmares. My transformation left me full of fear and dread even though I was never alone. Little did I know that this was the beginning of a long and painful journey. 

 My friends, have you ever felt like you were being watched or followed, even when there was no one around? Or, have you ever had the feeling that a room or a place was haunted, even though there was no logical explanation for it? If so, you're not alone. I have come to realize that many people experience these types of occurrences and often wonder why they happen. My experience has led me to conclude that there is definitely a link between our negative mental state and spiritual attraction.

The Link between Negative Mental States and Spirit Attraction

S

pirits and other entities may come closer to us when we are facing negative mental states like depression, anxiety, or terror. These supernatural beings can intensify our issues with mental health as they feed off our negative energy. But, how do spirits specifically target individuals who are facing bad mental states? Simple: The energy we emit attracts spirits. We are more likely to be targeted by evil spirits when we are in a poor mental state like depression, worry, or terror because these emotions produce a powerful aura of negative energy around us. These ghosts feed off this bad energy, which in turn intensifies our problems with mental health. They may drive us to perceive strange experiences like unexplained sounds, shadows, or even physical sensations.

An important point to note is that this phenomenon is not limited to those who are diagnosed with a mental health condition. Anyone who is going through a tough time emotionally or spiritually can be targeted by negative spirits. There are also persons who are Spiritual beacons and will naturally attract energies. Spirits can also make an appearance in places where traumatic events have occurred, feeding off the residual energy left behind.

 The good and bad in my life often seemed to run parallel to each other. I lost my father 1 month after I gave birth to my first child. I was hit so hard and struggled to deal with reality. 6 years later, my mom died after battling cancer while I was in my last year of college. It's like I was pushing myself to the limit to achieve my goals and in the same breath, I'd have so many more aspects of myself falling apart with the worst ways to cope. At first, when I encountered some of these challenges I cried like a baby.

Symptoms or signs spirits are attracted to you

T

here are a variety of symptoms or signs that can indicate that spirits are attracted to you. Some of the most common include:

• Unexplained noises, such as knocking or whispering
• Shadows or movement out of the corner of your eye
• Physical sensations, such as feeling a cold breeze or being touched
• Feeling like you're being watched or followed
• Having vivid, disturbing dreams or nightmares
• Seeing unexplained lights or orbs
• Having a sense of unease or dread in certain rooms or places
• Experiencing strange smells or odors
• Feeling a presence or energy in a room, even when you're alone
• Having electronic devices malfunction or turn on or off unexpectedly

It's important to understand that being targeted by spirits in this way doesn't mean that you're "crazy" or "imagining things." It simply means that your negative mental state is attracting spirits to you. It's important to seek help in improving your mental health, as it is the first step to reducing the amount of negative energy emitted, and protecting yourself from negative spirits.

Remember that not all spirits are negative, some may be peaceful and some may be trying to send you a message. So it's important to not jump to conclusions and seek professional help.

Protecting yourself

1. Clear your energy: One of the first things you can do to protect yourself from spirits attracted to your negative energy is to clear your energy. You can do this by using techniques such as meditation, visualization, or energy work. This will help to remove any negative energy that may be lingering around you, making you less appealing to spirits.

 

2. Set boundaries: Another way to protect yourself from spirits is to set boundaries. This can be done by visualizing a protective shield around you, or by using crystals or other protective items. This will help to keep spirits from getting too close to you and feeding off of your negative energy.

 

3. Release negative emotions: Holding onto negative emotions such as anger, fear, and grief can make you more attractive to spirits. It's important to release these negative emotions in a healthy way, such as through journaling, therapy, or talking to a trusted friend or family member.

 

4. Connect with positive energy: Surrounding yourself with positive energy can help to counteract the negative energy that may be attracting spirits to you. This can be done by spending time in nature, connecting with loved ones, or participating in activities that bring you joy and fulfillment.

 

5. Seek the help of a spiritualist: If you feel like you are constantly being targeted by spirits, it may be helpful to seek the help of a spiritualist. They can help you to understand and communicate with the spirits that are trying to reach you and can teach you how to protect yourself and reduce the amount of negative energy you are emitting.

 

6. Use Essential oils: Some essential oils like sage, palo santo, and frankincense are believed to have spiritual purification properties and can be used for smudging and energy clearing.

7. Practice gratitude: Gratitude is a powerful tool that helps to shift focus from negative thoughts to positive thoughts. Practicing gratitude can help to raise your vibrations and make you less attractive to spirits

 It is important to remember that spirits are not inherently evil or malevolent. They are simply energy, and some of them may be attracted to negative energy as a source of sustenance. By taking steps to protect yourself and reduce the amount of negative energy you are emitting, you can reduce your chances of being targeted by spirits, and improve your overall well-being.
