Defence against Energy Vampirism

[SkullTraill]

What are some ways in which you protect yourself from energy vampires?

Obviously the easiest solution is to distance yourself from these people. In my experience at least, energy vampirism mainly occurs in person, or at least when in some form of communication with people.

Let's say you're in a situation where you can't immediately cut contact with people. How then would you take measures to defend your energy? Be that occult measures or mundane.

Some tactics I employ, mainly from the physical proximity angle, I long ago developed from the inspirations of Anton LaVey, Robert Greene and Dennings and Phillips include:

1. Avoid eye contact, or at least prolonged gazing.
2. Try not to face them directly - as in keeping turned slightly to one side. This to try to protect energy centers and project aloofness.
3. Keep any conversations only to what is necessary and tune out any of their emotional hooks and lures.
4. If they try to get close, stay mobile in a natural way and try to keep physical barriers between you and them, like a table or something.
5. If they invade thoughts and emotions somehow - especially for no reason - intentionally develop a sense of inner hostility without violating social boundaries. A way I see this as the desiccation of Mars energy vs. the moisture of Venusian energy. Outwardly an impersonal businesslike attitude while avoiding direct rudeness, unless they provoke it.
6. Try to avoid them mooching, such as when they ask to borrow something or to bum cigarettes. Avoid accepting gifts from them or anything where some kind of sympathetic bond can be assumed.

I could think of more, but it is dependent on the situation. I view what I consider and have experienced as "vampirism" as a hostile act, a form of psychic warfare. Most people I meet who are vamping are seeking someone to latch onto and are unconscious of it. It's really sad in the case of people who are really ill and need to latch onto the energy of others, especially if they are close relations - in those cases some inner distance with due care is needed as these are not enemies.

Shielding and warding is a great first step. Even simple methods like the 12D Shield or Auric Shields can be effective since the vast majority of energy vamps are what I call "unconscious" (meaning they don't know that they're a psy vamp) but you can beef it up using various methods (other spirits, protective talismans, etc). Reinforce these shields weekly.

energy vampirism can happen over the internet as well, cue the troll video joke. Although i dont practice energy vampirism (other peoples energys are quite redundant to me) it can definitely be done over long distances. If you arent aware of the drain to reverse it then the rest such as shielding, using mantras and such just adds resistance and the rest depends on your defence vs the vampire's skill and ability.

Even if you arent a vampire it can be very easy to accidentally drain people around you when you inadvertently try to recharge yourself.

i find researching triggers works. i have one old one. the word is source and it should feel neutral so it can be seen as concept. to me it feels like a disease. and when i take a look at the word i see white stuff and sores. thats not a good view, a wrong connection so to say. i did not feel evil intent as one would feel with magick attacks, more like a sorry i didnt know. because i have done this for so long now i know the sorry is a human and the wrongness is a 'war'. in my world its microsoft vs linux and me the nitwit saying dos and linux are loving each other why the fuck are you attacking me.

i think a lot of people who work with it like site owners, crypto dudes and dudettes, it department people can agree with me that overall microsoft and its owners did a lot of stupid/wrong stuff in the world.

source code should be free.

the human who said sorry in this story, is the one dragged into vampirehood and ratting for a party he/she doesnt even know exists. so find the war and step out. thats how you dont defense, but divert.

skull ban me all you want, but im writing how i defense against energy vampirism as asked in the header of the topic. if diverting isnt defending then id say ok off topic, but either way i used diversion as defense.

one might think a discussion would be more appropriate then using your staff member power. off topic as explanation for the warning when one is asking is either showing that the question didnt clarify what you are really asking or that you really dont know what im saying cause you dont know what im trying to explain.

anyways it comes over as if you feel attacked and are hiding behind your staff membership to me. i like you thats why i write this. no other reason, cause we bumbed heads a lot of times and this example had nothing to do with that.

with Love,
Lou

If you notice someone is “draining you” the simple act of bringing absolute presence to yourself can completely devoid the other person of the emotional reaction they are seeking from you.

As funny as this is this is actually real and relevant in that draining can be done from anywhere. Its much easier in proximity but you can specifically drain people over distances. Hence my reply wasn't offtopic, and it is crucial to understand defence. Ofcourse if your energy is very mature thats a different case and passive is always a better option through your own progress with energy.

Some classes of angels i know have very matured energy that they can heal you just by talking to you even though it is not their intention to heal.

energy vampirism isnt immune to be messed with so there are some defences you can use here other than reversing to prevent a drain in the first place while common defences such as defence rituals, mantras, shielding only add resistance.

Infuse their draining flow with the worst of your own energies. Dump the venomous putrid stuff into their nasty suckery.
If you master the art of condensing your own terrible energies into some crafted astral artifact, you could direct it into their pulling force, counter attacking effectively and screwing them up.

there are 2 better accomplished vampirisms that this doesnt work against.

The first is skilled, they can drain from around them, anywhere and can drain specifically or by instinct. This will just block the flow or restrict but may not stop. This only accounts for a tiny portion though.

The 2nd which i fall in is when doing a powerful direct magick and i drain from around me or from any convenient person available to perform it, which is why despite the pain to purposely avoid doing this i find the world disrespectful to me taking the effort to hold back. poisoning does not do a thing here as its not just a single person being drained but an entire area and poisoning wont work against this despite what you think. It takes a certain spiritual development to manipulate a lot of energy on such a level and theres details out of topic related here and in relation to how some supernatural biologies work too. However i solved this thanks to power type angels who shared their source of power but the implementation to solve it is very difficult.

Im not really an energy vampire but draining for any sort of instinctive direct magick feels like 2nd nature to me.

Interesting. This would work similarly to a natural filter, I suppose. I'm not familiar with more advanced practices on vampirism.

I'd say that the target must know they are being drained, of course. But it takes some wit for a magician to know they are being drained by or even around an actual vampire (if the vampire don't spill the beans, of course), so this sort of target isn't oblivious, therefore, probably not the best target. I'm assuming that vampires share a predatorial mentality, which tends to avoid difficult targets and invest on weaker ones.

This practice of poisoning is based on personal experience and it worked beautifully, even if against a very inexperienced wannabe that was super obvious about it, lol.

A question. If a target has very noxious energy, like a terminal drug addict of simply a very sick person, would the vampire drain it anyways?

Just drain their energy back. Now nobody is gaining any thing or losing anything

If you are attacked by a real vampire, then there is simply no way to defend yourself. However, if you are attacked by a vampire-jerk, then counterattack is the best defense.

 

[Kalypto]

If I were in a situation that pushed me to be around someone who is an energy vampire. I’d switch into a mode where I’m drawing from something larger than my personal reserves. For me, that looks like channelling energy, bringing in light, kinda the way Reiki practitioners talk about, letting the universal current move through them, rather than letting anyone feed directly on my own battery.

When I do that, the “drain” doesn’t hit me the same way. I’m not giving them anything personal; I’m letting energy move through me like a river that doesn’t lose water just because something touches the surface.

Alongside that, I’d layer in practical measures.
Breath is the first one: slow, steady exhalations to drop my nervous system out of fight‑or‑flight, because an overactive system is an easy target for anyone who unconsciously grabs at other people’s bandwidth.
Grounding is the next. I like to "Feel into" the heavy draining feeling, and focus on floating out of it

And then there’s the boundary work itself. Not aggressive, just firm. A quiet internal statement like “My energy is tailored to me, and can only be contained and swayed by me” does more than people think. It’s a psychological boundary, an energetic boundary, and a behavioral boundary all at once.

If the situation allows for it, I also redirect the dynamic. I keep my answers shorter, I anchor my attention in my body instead of getting entangled in their emotional field, and I avoid taking responsibility for fixing whatever they’re bleeding out. That’s the mundane side of occult shielding, less mystical but just as important.

Everything can be considered energetic vampirism, be it humans, tv shows, news, what have you. It is about capturing of your interest, your attention, in a sense, manipulating your emotional state (energies, thoughts, beliefs).
"Where focus goes, energy flows"
That's my distilled version of whatever books one can write about the subject.. just noise...

When we discuss about toxic relationships and toxic masculinity (because it is trendy) and narcissism and bla bla bla... well, mostly wounded women lash out in that direction we can observe the idea of "he drains me, he sucks out my youth, my energy, my life out of me..."
Well, I share this example because it is so popular that anyone can stumble upon these and is relevant to the context.
One, people are not trees, in a relationship where there's this "effect" of energetic vampirism, the affected one can learn how to use healthy boundaries, might learn how to say No and so so many other lessons.
My guides and other entities are so glad and willing to share some of the happenings unfolding behind what we define as negative.
In this particular context and example with a toxic relationship in which the victim feels drained of energy of their life force, there are lessons to learn and lessons to teach.
We think in box kind of way, limited by our own experiences and knowledge but scenarios like the following are the most common ones.
In a relationship, a human experience relationship where there's states of conflict, arguing, abuse, physical, mental, even sexual in nature, that is what we experience at the human level.
Most of the times is painful, exhausting, mentally, physically and even spiritually heavy.
There's bad blood between the two (parties of the relationship), there's drama, there'... well, everybody knows how pushed to the negative extreems a relationship can be.
But at the soul level, there's nothing like that.
I've seen (because I can) so much love at soul level and so much, let's say crying when the symbol, the avatar of the abuser pushes the painful limits and the one abused suffers and endures and doesn't take a stand, or maybe they need to learn as I've previously mentioned a lesson about boundaries, or to lash out or even return the behavior to the role of the abuser... There are so so many lessons and so many entities which watch, observe, learn for our lessons, form our behavior, from our responses, from our lack of response.
I've seen "demons" undressing their role within the collective consciousness and they too were serving the idea of Light.
I've seen so many loving souls taking the role of the abusers for the human experience and I've seen so many guides literally paving the path as it is written in the soul's contract.
That is power, to take a role of a beggar and teach the world a lesson, to take the role of a child affected by cancer to teach the world a lesson, to take the role of the abuser to teach a loved one how to gather and find their power to stay strong and adopt a verticality in their core essence... it is a "sight" many would not accept with a human limited and analytical mind. Yet it is part of the Existence of all there is.


How to defend yourself from energy vampirism?
Push your limitations, adopt healthy boundaries, know yourself, don't accept and don't give away your power.
Remember that you have choices (even if these choices are not so obvious or easy to take)
Trust in yourself and even if you have doubts, know that doubt is teaching you that there's something more there.
Fear is also a messenger, don't run from what you fear, understand the message.
Abusive and violent physical behavior, trees can't move so easily, humans do.
Understand that where you offer your attention, in that direction your energy goes. If you feel betrayed, wounded, you feel injustice and you have not found a way to "right those wrongs" then stop being a victim and keep them close. Let it be experience from which you learned and not active wounds.

I've suggested so many times on various platforms that cord cutting rituals, should be done from a state of forgiveness, acceptance and love otherwise, the negative energy, the emotions with a negative impact will drain the energy...

But of course sometimes we need to lash out on others so we don't have to deal with our own lack of action, attitude or whatever. It is much more simpler to point fingers and say "they should change" instead of working on ourselves and not allow such behavior to happen again or to touch and affect us in a negative way.

"they are responsible for me feeling so down and exhausted, and miserable..."
Nope, what you feel is within you, only you should have access to those energies, states, emotions otherwise, that will be the ultimate slavery method... an exterior action to be able to screw you up inside without you moving a finger...
Nah... it is an agreement. Lack of action, lack of self-control is the an agreement.
"I don't oppose my vampire in any way, it is an agreement to keep offer my energy..."

A perspective, doesn't need to sound like a fact, I am aware that some need to explore other experiences.

Be well
