PROTECTION - Part 1
AUTHORITY AND RESPONSIBILITY
Tonight we have an important lesson and IÂ’ll try to get through it all. We are all on the spiritual path now. And as you commit yourself to spiritual development, you are given the power and the authority and the responsibility to call upon and to use these powers for your personal use -- and to assist others. Now you'll need to learn a number of Spiritual Affirmations to help in this work. God or the Universal Mind or your Higher Self or the Universe (however you see it) is turning over this RESPONSIBILITY to you to do your own protective work. And as you move up the spiritual path, there are those entities who would like to see you falter or even give up your progress into the LIGHT. So, we need to learn protection and we need to USE protection.
............................
GENERAL PROTECTION
We've already met this affirmation before. Whenever traveling, by car, plane, train, ship, etc. or when sending your kids off to school and to give protection to your pets and your home, etc., you will find that this protection affirmation works well.
.................
In the NAME, through the POWER and by the WORD [of your power name] a Wall of the Living White Spiritual Flame [or Light] is built around me [or around your children, automobile, pets, home, etc.] , and I give thanks to [your Power Source] that it is done. AMEN.
................
This affirmation, when spoken aloud (like a army drill sergeant) has a lasting power of four to six hours and should be renewed as needed. As you use this affirmation, you may find the time of its effectiveness extending and as you develop ability to project this protection.
The Christian Form of the affirmation would be something like this:
.....................
In the NAME, through the POWER and by the WORD of the Lord, Christ Jesus, a Wall of the Living White Spiritual Flame [or Light] is built around me [or your children, automobile, pets, home, etc.] , and I give thanks to the Father that it is done. AMEN.
..................
Questions on this affirmation and how to use it?
Sagegreenspirit: IÂ’ve learned it a different way, so it doesn't have to be exact?
GS: Always put the affirmation into the words and forms that seem comfortable, that feel right to you.
WrenOwl: Yeah by all means, if you don't follow a Christian path, do what you have to do to make adjustments for your tradition
MsSouthernCalif: what about the purple flame?
GS: If you want to use the purple flame, yes, that works too.
WrenOwl: Violet flame.
MsSouthernCalif: Yes, violet. What does color have to do with it?
Sagegreenspirit: white means pure, MS.
Maianiofsantarai: I have heard it said that the dark can imitate white light, so golden is actually a better color to use. Opinions?
Lllsmom1: Use a color that feels protective to you. Personally I prefer the purity of white.
EthereaIDragons: Mia if that feels good to you then do so.
MsSouthernCalif: I will use Christ light, hopefully that will work.
EthereaIDragons: I also use a golden white light
.............................
NEGATIVE THOUGHTS
There are times when you may find your thinking is confused or clouded by negative thoughts or criticism or by emotional disturbances (like when you are burdenbed by hostile co- workers). Whether negative thoughts are self-generated or being sent to you by others, you can sweep these negative thoughts away by using the following affirmation (remember, aloud like a drill sergeant). But, take two or three deep breaths, then say:
...................
In the NAME, through the POWER and by the WORD of [your personal power name] I call forth the Spiritual White Light to sweep through my aura, cleaning and purifying my aura and filling my aura with the pure white spiritual light. And now that my aura is filled with this Spiritual Light, I give thanks to [your power source] that my aura is cleansing and purified and filled with spiritual Light. AMEN.
................
The Christian form of this affirmation should be obvious.
If these unwanted thoughts and emotions return within a very short time, say less than a half hour or so, you may reasonablely suspect that these adverse feelings and thoughts are being directed at you by an outside entity. And if you become aware that these negative thoughts are being directed at you by some one (or thing) else, you might use this affirmation:
..........
Beloved [your power name] I very humbly ask that all negative thoughts and vibrations being directed towards me -- be transmuted by Thy great love and sent out to bless the world. And I thank [your power source ] that whatsoever I ask in [your power name] is granted. AMEN.
..............
EthereaIDragons: Could a cord also cause that?
WrenOwl: Negative thoughts? sure!
EthereaIDragons: What about sudden sexual thoughts?
WrenOwl: Yes.
EthereaIDragons: OK. I had an incubus do that and I felt like someone or something touching me but I summoned up the light to surround me and it growled and went away. Happened while I was sleeping.
.................................
THE ARMOUR OF LIGHT
OK, now we have two powerful affirmations to look at: The CLEANSING AND SEALING and the ARMOUR OF LIGHT. The Armour of Light is the most powerful protection I know of on this plane. So I'll give you that tonight, and we'll take up the Cleansing and Sealing affirmation next week.
The most powerful protection that I know of for the individual is "The Armour of Light" or "the Armour of God". This armour appears to psychics and to those on the astral plane as a dazzling White Light completely surrounding the person so clothed. It should be used twice a day (morning and night) and again whenever you are apt to encounter "the dark side." It should also be used just before engaging in religious ceremonies, before doing rescue work on the inner planes, etc. For Christians, the Bible passages at Ephesians 6:11-17 and Romans 13:12 may be of special significance. However, I have beenb assured by my teacher, that these protective techniques were known by the mystics far before the time of Paul and were referred to as "The Ring Pass Not." Those on Paths of Light other than the Christian path will need to modify this affirmation to fit their own magical images and magical weapons and to substitute their own "Names of Power.
Standing upright and speaking in a forceful voice, you will say:
...........................
In the NAME, through the POWER and by the NAME of the Lord, Christ Jesus, I put on the full Armour of Light. On my head is the Helmet of Salvation. I wear the Breastplate of Righteousness. My loins are girded for battle. My feet are shod with the Wings of Peace and enveloped in the Flame of the Spirit of Almighty God. In my left hand I hold the Shield of Faith and in my right hand I hold the Sword of the Spirit. The Sword of the Spirit is the Word of God. The Word of God is unassailable, and having gone forth, must return fulfilled. Around me circles the Spiritual White Light and no evil may come nigh my habitation. Thus clad I stand, joyfully expectant, ready to do the Will of the Living Christ. And I thank the Father that whatsoever I ask in His Son's Name is granted. AMEN.
...........................
I find that this affirmation works well when done immediately after the cleansing and sealing affirmation which IÂ’ll give you next week. As it is a very powerful affirmation, I recommend that when you do it each night, you do it a couple of hours before your bed time. For myself, I've found that I am so energized that I find it difficult to go to sleep within a couple of hours after putting on the Armour of Light.
Most of you will find that the dazzling brilliance of the Armour of Light is disconcerting and even more than uncomfortable to those not so advanced on their own Spiritual Paths as you are on your path. As your own soul light amplified by the Armour of Light sends out a strong vibration rate that differs from the vibration rate of those who are not on your own path and from that of those who are not on any spiritual path at all, you will wish to "step-down" the intensity of your vibratory rate so that these others will not be made uncomfortable. So every morning, after putting on the Armour of Light, you will want to ask:
................
Dear Father [or your own Power Name source] I ask that today you will veil my soul light to all whom I contact, whether by person, by mail, by the internet or by telephone, and I ask that my aura be shielded, in the Name of the Lord, Christ Jesus [or your Power Name]. AMEN.
................
Sagegreenspirit: Wow, that is powerful! It hit me hard and was great.
WrenOwl: Okay..... for those of you on the other side of the spectrum here..... you can add traditions from your sacred texts into this affirmation.
GS: Now, look at the words carefully: We start out with the standard use of our power name:
.................
In the NAME, through the POWER and by the WORD of [your power name] I put on the full Armour of Light.
.....................
The Armour of Light was known and can be traced back to the Egyptians in the Western traditions and a parallel version can be found in the Buddhist and Hindu traditions. Then the affirmation (as Lady Eleanor gives it) goes on in a more or less Christian format. So those of you on other paths to the Light will need to modify the description:
......................
"On my head is the Helmet of Salvation. I wear the Breastplate of Righteousness. My waist is encircled by the Belt of Truth. My loins are girded for battle. My feet are shod with the Wings of Peace and enclosed in the Flame of the Spirit of Almighty God. On my left arm (or in my left hand) I bear the shield of Faith and in my right hand I hold the Sword of the Spirit. The Sword of the Spirit is the Sword of Truth, The Sword of Truth is the Word of God. The Word of God is unassailable and having gone forth must return (completely) fulfilled. Around me circles the Spiritual White Light and ALL evil and ALL darkness must remain far outside my habitation. Thus clad I stand, joyfully expectant, ready to do the Will of the Living Christ (or your power source). And I thank the Father [or your power source] that whatsoever I ask in His Son's Name [or your power name] is granted. AMEN.
..............
Now, those of you on other than the Christian path will have to do some work to adapt this affirmation to your specific path. But I really encourage you to work on the wording carefully so that it does fit your path. This is the most powerful affirmation that is generally available to us.
And you will want to use this affirmation at least twice daily, upon arising and before bed. I do suggest that you say the affirmation a good hour or so before bed as it brings so much energy with it that you'll not be able to sleep immediately after saying the affirmation. Also, this is the affirmation you should now use before your meditation periods and before any spiritual enterprise.
OK, now here are some uses for the Armour of Light: Say you have to ask your boss for a raise or face the judge in traffic court. Just before the encounter, put on the Armour. I remember with a smile, a darksider visit in my bedroom one night. I first put on the Armour of Light (said the affirmation). Then I asked the entity "do you really want to tangle with me?" and "POOF" the entity was gone.
..................................
HOMEWORK:
1. Rewrite and format the Armour of Light affirmation to fit your path and to have the words comfortable to you and to your inner child.
2. Start using the Armour of Light morning and night and again before any spiritual activity. Also, if you are in nursing, healing, counseling, teaching, etc., use this affirmation before your work, your classes, etc. Use this affirmation before meditation.
3. Continue your meditation, visualization and journaling. In your journal write down the Armour of Light affirmation and describe how you feel, what happens when you say it.
NEXT WEEK, The Armour of Light reviewed and the Cleansing and Sealing Affirmation.
