Yeah, I kind of compare it to catching a cold. I also attract psychic vampires who want to just drain me dry, since I am a healer. They just LOVE my energy! I have to keep myself superduper clean.CopperFox wrote: Whenever one is actively working conjure on a regular basis it is to be expected that you will attract outside energies, entities and spirits. The energy you send out into the spirit realms / subtle planes of being have a ripple effect, like a stone on a lake, and naturally the beings that dwell in the lake want to see who is throwing stones. We are more visible and attractive to them, because we acknowledge their (mostly) unseen existence.
It's not just us by the way. My boyfriend was a Buddhist monk for 10 years and he catches the nasties too. It took me a while to figure out why he would become so hermit like. He just did not know how to protect himself from the nasties. Whenever you have some spiritual background, you are a beacon for all types of stuff.
Cleanliness is next to Godliness for a reason.
