The energy we carry—and the energy around us—can be deeply impacted by the thoughts, emotions, and intentions of others. If you’ve been feeling unusually off balance or drained, you might be experiencing a psychic attack. Learning to recognize the early signs and knowing how to protect yourself can make all the difference in keeping your energy field strong and clear.
Here are five common signs you may be under psychic attack and what you can do to protect your space:
1. Flies Showing Up Unexpectedly
In many spiritual traditions, flies are seen as symbols of spying or unwanted attention. If you start noticing flies appearing around you or your home for no clear reason, it could be a red flag that someone is projecting negative energy your way.
Energy Shield Tip: Cleanse your home by burning sage or palo santo, and visualize a protective golden light surrounding you and your living space, acting as an impenetrable shield.
2. Feeling Like You’re Being Watched
Have you ever had the unnerving sense that someone is observing you even when you’re alone? This may suggest that your aura is being tapped into without your permission, leaving you feeling vulnerable.
Energy Shield Tip: Carry a grounding crystal like obsidian or black tourmaline. Repeat the affirmation: “I block and revoke all unwanted access to my energy field.” Feel your boundaries strengthen as you say it.
3. Disturbing Dreams or Sleep Paralysis
Strange, vivid dreams or episodes of sleep paralysis can sometimes hint at energetic interference, particularly on the astral plane while you sleep. These dreams may leave you feeling anxious or unsettled even after waking.
Energy Shield Tip: Tuck a piece of black tourmaline or amethyst under your pillow, and call on your spirit guides before bed to protect your dream world. Setting this intention creates a spiritual safeguard while you rest.
4. Deep Emotional Fatigue
If you’re waking up tired, feeling emotionally depleted for no obvious reason, or struggling to stay grounded despite resting well, your energy might be leaking or under attack.
Energy Shield Tip: Spend time grounding yourself daily—whether that’s walking barefoot on the earth, taking a salt bath, or practicing a short meditation to recharge and seal your energy field.
5. Gossip, Conflict, or a String of Bad Luck
Negative energy doesn’t always stay in the unseen realms—it can show up through conflict with others, misunderstandings, gossip, or even random bouts of bad luck. These disruptions may indicate psychic turbulence in your field.
Energy Shield Tip: Try a cord-cutting meditation to release energetic ties to those causing harm. Carry an evil eye talisman for daily protection and burn protective herbs like rosemary or bay leaves to cleanse your surroundings.
Remember: Your Energy Is Sacred
You have the right—and the power—to guard your energy fiercely. Regular energetic maintenance, grounding rituals, and spiritual boundaries aren’t just luxury practices—they’re essential forms of self-care. Stay rooted, stay intentional, and honor the sacred space of your soul.
