Parasites Beware
Discernment with Drainers and Deceivers
Protection lives at many levels. Sometimes it feels like a gentle embrace, a reminder to breathe and realign. Other times it feels like armor, the firm decision to say no and walk away. However it shows up, protection is a sacred act of honoring your energy, your time, and your spirit.
I wrote an article called Spiritual Protection: A Beginner’s Guide to Aligned Living where I share the foundation of this practice. That piece speaks to the essentials—choosing clarity, peace, and sovereignty as daily acts of devotion, remembering that your energy is sacred, and learning to hold yourself with intention. It offers a gentle doorway for those beginning to walk the path of energetic care.
This writing carries us deeper. It speaks to the realities we face when we step beyond the beginner’s threshold and encounter the messier sides of life. Pests who refuse to respect boundaries. Trolls who thrive on chaos. Clowns who mask malice as humor. Parasites who cling and drain. Schemes designed to deceive and scams that prey on trust. People who try to take advantage of kindness, who feed on light without giving anything in return. These forces are not imagined. They move through the world just as love and truth do.
Protection here is not about shrinking or living in fear. It is about discernment and sovereignty. It is about recognizing what belongs in your space and what does not. It is about calling your energy back when it has been scattered, holding your boundaries as sacred, and choosing freedom from the chaos that others may try to impose. This is protection as a living practice, rooted in wisdom, clarity, and joy.
Recognizing the Disruptors
Disruptors are not always obvious at first glance. They slip into conversations, opportunities, and relationships dressed in charm or distraction, hoping you will ignore the unease they carry. The pest pushes past your boundaries with constant demands for time and energy. The troll thrives on chaos, seeking to provoke and feed on your reactions. The clown hides cruelty behind jokes, leaving you questioning if you are being too sensitive. The parasite clings to your light, quietly draining without ever giving nourishment in return. The bully uses intimidation and force, pressing down on your spirit in an attempt to silence or diminish you, disguising control as authority, tough love, or even leadership. Scams and schemes arrive with promises that sound too good, weaving sweet words that disguise manipulation.
These disruptors are not limited to the people who carry them. They are frequencies that move through the collective field, vibrations that can ripple through rooms, conversations, and even our own thoughts. The troll is not only an external figure who stirs chaos. It can also be the restless voice inside that thrives on disorder. The bully is not only the one who shouts loudly. It can also be the inner critic that tries to dominate your light. Recognizing them means seeing how they appear both outside and within so you can shift the energy wherever it shows itself.
To see them clearly, you must first turn inward. The body and intuition are the first to signal when something is off. Pay attention when your stomach knots, when your breath shortens, when your shoulders tense, or when a sudden wave of heaviness moves through you. Notice the moments when your energy drops sharply after speaking with someone or when your spirit feels clouded in their presence. These are not accidents. They are messages. Your body is speaking what the mind has not yet named.
On the extrasensory level, disruption may arrive as a prickling at the edge of your aura, a flash of imagery, or an inner no that echoes before you can explain why. You may feel an abrupt mood shift that does not belong to you, or hear a subtle warning that tells you to pause. These cues are invitations to trust yourself. Intuition does not always speak in logic, but it always speaks in truth.
Recognizing disruptors is not about giving them power. It is about claiming yours. When you honor your sensory and extrasensory awareness, you stop mistaking their persistence for care, their flattery for sincerity, their force for authority, or their chaos for passion. You learn to see the pattern, feel the distortion, and trust your knowing before their mask falls away. With that awareness, you no longer confuse their noise for truth. You choose sovereignty over deception.
Awareness Practices
When something feels out of sync, pause and bring your attention inward. Breathe deeply and notice the state of your body. Ask yourself: Do I feel heavier or lighter after this exchange? Place a hand on your stomach or heart to sense if your body expands with ease or tightens with resistance. Close your eyes and see if an inner yes or no arises without forcing it. If the signal is unclear, step away for a moment and notice how your energy shifts when you create space. These small practices train you to hear the body and intuition more clearly so you can recognize disruptors before they entangle your light.
Shield of Clarity
When the disruptor energy presses in, sometimes a single spoken prayer can cut through faster than thought. This invocation can be whispered, spoken aloud, or held silently in the heart to reset your field and remind you of your sovereignty.
Spirit of clarity, stand with me now.
I am light, I am whole, I am sovereign.
No chaos can take what belongs to me.
I walk protected and I walk free. Now.
Thank you, Spirit. Àṣẹ.
Unconscious Carriers of Disruptive Energy
Not everyone who embodies these disruptive frequencies is fully aware of what they carry. Many people move through the world on autopilot, repeating patterns they inherited, responding from wounds they never learned to heal, or grasping for connection in ways that take more than they give. To them, their behavior may feel normal, even justified. To those around them, the impact can feel draining, chaotic, or harmful.
The pest may not realize how often they cross boundaries because no one ever honored their boundaries when they were young. Constant reaching feels like survival, even as it disregards the needs of others. The troll may stir chaos without awareness that they are acting out the unrest inside themselves, projecting inner conflict outward so they don’t have to feel it alone. The clown who masks cruelty in jokes may believe they are only being playful, unable to see how their humor cuts deep. The parasite often arises from an unhealed sense of lack, clinging to others for nourishment without realizing they are depleting what does not belong to them. The bully, too, is not always a villain plotting harm, but someone reenacting domination because control once defined their safety.
When we see disruptors only as villains, we risk simplifying a much more complex reality. Harm is real and must be named, but intent and awareness are not always present. Recognizing this does not mean excusing the impact. Drain is still drain, whether it comes with malice or unconsciousness. What it does mean is that we can meet these energies with clearer eyes. Instead of being pulled into resentment or personalizing their behavior, we learn to see the frequency for what it is: a distortion moving through the collective, often carried by someone who does not yet see themselves clearly.
This perspective offers us two gifts. First, it strengthens compassion without sacrificing boundaries. You can acknowledge the wounded root of another’s actions without giving them permission to continue draining you. Second, it sharpens discernment. When you understand that not all disruptors move with conscious intent, you stop wasting energy asking why would they do this to me? and begin focusing instead on the choices you can make to protect your field.
Protection here is not about excusing or absorbing what harms you. It is about noticing the difference between malice and unconsciousness, honoring your own signals, and choosing the boundary that best serves your energy. You may meet the disruptor with distance, silence, or firm words, but the choice remains yours. The awareness that many people carry these energies unconsciously allows you to release unnecessary bitterness, set boundaries with clarity, and step away without carrying their shadow into your own field.
Discernment as Daily Practice
Protection is more than armor or defense. It is the daily devotion of discernment. Discernment is the ability to pause before reacting, to sense what is real beneath appearances, and to honor the wisdom of your intuition even when logic has not yet caught up. It is how you tell the difference between nourishment and manipulation, between a genuine offering and a disguised demand.
The body becomes your compass here. When someone speaks, notice if your chest expands with ease or tightens with tension. Pay attention to whether your energy rises in their presence or quietly drains. If you feel a sudden fog in your mind, a sharp ache in your stomach, or a weight pressing into your spirit, that is your inner guidance showing you the truth behind the surface. Discernment asks you to trust those signals, to listen to the language of your body without dismissing it as imagination.
Beyond the body, discernment is also the clarity of your inner sight. You may receive images, hear a word, or feel a strong knowing without explanation. These are not accidents. They are the spirit’s way of guiding you before the disruptor reveals itself fully. To practice discernment is to treat these cues as sacred, to pause long enough to notice them, and to honor their message by choosing accordingly.
Discernment is strengthened with practice. Each time you step back instead of rushing forward, each time you ask yourself if this path feels aligned, each time you choose silence instead of reacting, you build the muscle of discernment. Over time, this practice becomes second nature. You begin to cut through illusions with ease. You no longer fall for the performance of the clown or the charm of the pretender because you trust what you feel more than what you see.
Discernment is not about suspicion or paranoia. It is about sovereignty. It is choosing to see clearly, to pause before opening the door, to walk with awareness instead of distraction. With discernment, you move through the world with grounded confidence, knowing that no matter what form the disruptor takes, you have the inner clarity to recognize it and the authority to decide how you engage.
A Daily Discernment Ritual
Begin your day with a simple check-in. Place one hand on your heart and one on your stomach. Close your eyes and take three slow breaths, asking quietly, What does safety feel like in my body today? Let the answer rise as sensation rather than words. As you move through your day, return to that baseline feeling. When you encounter someone or something that shifts you away from it, pause and notice. Ask, Does this bring me closer to my truth or pull me away from it? End your day with gratitude for every moment you trusted your awareness, no matter how small. Over time, this practice sharpens your discernment until it becomes a natural extension of how you live.
Reclaiming Scattered Energy
Every draining encounter leaves an imprint. A careless word, a manipulative scheme, an aggressive demand, each one has the potential to pull threads of your energy away from your center. You may walk away from a conversation feeling heavy, scattered, or strangely empty, as though something vital has been siphoned out of you. This is not weakness. It is simply the nature of energy. Wherever your attention flows, your power follows.
Reclaiming your energy is the sacred practice of gathering yourself home. It begins with awareness. Notice when you feel depleted, foggy, or disconnected from your own rhythm. Instead of dismissing it or pushing forward, pause and honor the sensation as a sign that pieces of you have been left behind. The first step of reclamation is recognition. You cannot call back what you refuse to acknowledge has gone missing.
The body and spirit respond powerfully to intention. Close your eyes and breathe deeply, imagining your inhale pulling threads of energy back toward your core. Exhale and release anything that does not belong to you. Speak the words, I call all parts back to me whole, now. Visualize golden strands of light weaving back into your body, filling the spaces that once felt hollow. See yourself becoming whole, radiant, and intact again.
Sometimes reclamation is not only energetic but also practical. It means stepping away from conversations that never leave you feeling seen. It means ending cycles with people or patterns that continually drain without giving. It means remembering that your time, attention, and presence are not free for anyone to consume. Reclaiming scattered energy includes the choice to close those doors firmly so that what belongs to you cannot leak away again.
On a deeper level, reclaiming energy is also about forgiveness—not of the disruptor, but of yourself. Forgiving yourself for the times you ignored your intuition, for the times you gave away more than you had, for the moments you mistook persistence for care. Forgiveness is a form of reclamation. It dissolves the guilt and shame that tether your energy to the past, allowing those pieces to finally return to you.
This practice is not a one-time act. It is a rhythm. Each day, each moment of awareness is an invitation to call yourself back, to gather every scattered fragment until you stand in the fullness of your own light. With practice, you no longer wait until exhaustion forces you to notice. You reclaim as you go, keeping your field strong and intact, remembering always that no one owns your energy but you.
When you notice yourself feeling scattered, pause and close your eyes. Place both hands over your heart. Inhale slowly and say silently, I call myself home. Exhale and release what does not belong. With each breath, imagine pieces of your energy returning from every direction, flowing back into your body as streams of golden light. Continue until you feel steady and whole again. End with gratitude, whispering, I am present. I am whole. I am protected.
Power in Refusal and Play
Not every disruptor deserves a battle. In truth, most of them thrive on reaction. The troll feeds on your outrage. The clown hopes you will take the bait of their cruelty disguised as humor. The bully wants you to shrink or lash out so they can feel victorious. Parasites thrive on the energy you give them by over-explaining, over-giving, or over-extending. Refusal is the power they cannot touch.
There is strength in silence, in the simple act of not engaging. Walking away is not weakness, it is wisdom. Choosing not to play their game denies them the attention and energy they crave. It is a reminder that your light does not need to dim in order to confront their shadow. Refusal is a shield. It says: I see you, and I choose not to be moved by you.
I do not believe in automatically matching energy. To mirror the disruptor is to give them what they came for, to step into their field and play by their rules. Matching chaos with chaos, cruelty with cruelty, or force with force only scatters my energy further. Protection is not mimicry. Protection is sovereignty. I choose to remain in my rhythm, to respond from clarity instead of reaction, to guard my joy instead of offering it up as fuel for their fire.
Playfulness, too, is a form of protection. When you laugh in the face of disruption, you dissolve its power. When you hold your joy close, disruptors cannot reach it. Laughter lightens the energy, making it impossible for parasites to anchor themselves to your field. Joy is defiance. Joy is sovereignty. It reminds you that your spirit is untouchable, even when disruption presses in.
Power in refusal and play is not about ignoring harm. It is about discerning what requires your voice and what does not deserve your breath. Some battles are worth fighting. Many are not. The art is in choosing, conserving your energy for what truly matters, and refusing to hand it away where it will only be wasted.
The next time you encounter a disruptor, pause before reacting. Take one breath and silently say to yourself, I do not feed what does not nourish me. If the moment allows, smile—whether outwardly or inwardly. Feel the weight of their energy bounce off your joy. Imagine their attempts dissolving into dust as you turn your focus toward something that brings you laughter or delight. Each time you do this, you strengthen your ability to refuse without resistance and to protect your light through joy.
This is everyday protection, but there are also deeper layers waiting to be explored. In future writings, I will share about advanced protection through archetypal forces such as djinn, succubus, siren, and fury energies. These currents carry their own unique wisdom and power, teaching us how to work with primal forces to shield, transform, and reclaim. They are not for the faint of heart, but for those ready to walk with the raw edges of energy, they offer profound guardianship.
Boundaries in Action
Protection is not only spiritual or energetic. It must be lived in the practical world, expressed through the choices you make each day. Boundaries are where the spiritual and physical meet. They are the gates that determine what you allow in and what you keep out. Without them, even the strongest intention leaks. With them, your energy remains intact.
Boundaries can be spoken, silent, or energetic. They live in the words no, not today, this does not belong to me. They live in the choice to block a number, delete a message, filter your inbox, or step away from a draining conversation. They live in the pause before saying yes, where you ask if the commitment aligns with your energy or if it pulls you away from your truth. Every boundary is a declaration of value. It says: my time, my body, my spirit, my focus are sacred.
These acts are not small. They are rituals of self-respect. Cancelling a plan that does not feel aligned is as powerful as casting a circle of light. Refusing to answer a call that pulls you into chaos is as sacred as burning incense at your altar. Boundaries are everyday spells. Each one strengthens the container that holds your life.
Setting boundaries can feel uncomfortable at first, especially if you are used to giving more than you receive or being the one who holds space for everyone else. Yet discomfort is not danger. It is simply the stretching of old patterns as you step into new authority. Over time, boundaries stop feeling like walls and start feeling like wings. They give you the freedom to choose, the freedom to rest, the freedom to create from a place of fullness rather than depletion.
Living Protected, Living Free
To live protected is to live free. Freedom is not found in isolation but in sovereignty. Living protected means remembering that disruptors of all kinds will always exist, yet they cannot claim your light unless you hand it over. Living protected means you trust your discernment, reclaim your energy, honor your boundaries, and hold your joy as sacred.
Protection for me is about moving with clarity and not living in fear. Protection is the devotion to myself that says, I am worth protecting. My energy is worth guarding. My spirit is worth honoring. When I live with that awareness, nothing outside of me can truly diminish me. I walk steady, I walk whole, and I walk free.
There are times when I may choose to entertain these energies, not because I enjoy the drain, but because I recognize the lessons they carry. Disruptors are mirrors. They show me where I am still tender, where my boundaries need strengthening, where my discernment sharpens. Even bullies and trolls have been my teachers, reminding me of the power I hold when I choose how I engage. Protection does not mean rejecting every shadow. It means learning from distortion without letting it scatter my light.
