7 Ways to Handle a Psychic Attack with Grace and Power

Uncover the mystical truth behind psychic attack and learn how to transform fear into power with light-hearted tools and soulful wisdom.

Understanding Psychic Attack

When we speak of ways to handle a psychic attack, there’s a certain mystery in the air—a chill up the spine, a sudden storm of emotion, or a streak of bad luck that defies logic. Yet, behind the drama lies a hidden invitation: to awaken to your inner magic and take full command of your energetic space.

In the realm of spirit and subtle energy, a psychic attack isn’t always a villain in the dark—it can also be a mirror. Sometimes it reflects unresolved emotions, ancestral echoes, or the projected fears of others. But here’s the twist: recognizing it doesn’t mean succumbing to it. It means rising into your power with laughter, light, and the courage of a wild soul.

A psychic Attack Is A Spiritual Experience

In the world of energy and spirituality, the term “psychic attack” may sound like something out of a movie—but for many, it’s a very real experience. Whether you believe in subtle energy or are simply curious, understanding what psychic attack means can empower you to stay grounded, protected, and in control of your own energy.

What Is a Psychic Attack?

A psychic attack is generally understood as a negative energetic influence directed at a person, intentionally or unintentionally, by another. It can manifest in many forms—mental, emotional, physical, or even spiritual distress. Some describe it as feeling “off,” drained, anxious, or like you’re under a dark cloud with no obvious cause.

Deliberate Psychic Attacks

Psychic attacks, whether deliberate or accidental, are energetic intrusions that can profoundly affect a person’s emotional, mental, and physical state. Deliberate psychic attacks occur when someone intentionally directs harmful energy, such as hatred, jealousy, anger, or ill will, toward another. This negativity can manifest as sudden discomfort, confusion, illness, or emotional heaviness in the recipient, who may not know the energy isn’t their own.

Too Much Bad Luck

While occasional misfortune is part of the natural ebb and flow of life, an unrelenting streak of bad luck—one thing after another, without explanation—is often a sign of a psychic attack. These disruptions can manifest as unexpected expenses, appliances breaking, arguments erupting from nowhere, or emotional chaos that seems to shadow every step.

This is especially telling when such turmoil follows a season of success—be it a new job, a happy relationship, or spiritual growth. Psychic attacks are often rooted in jealousy or resentment projected by others, consciously or unconsciously, in response to your light. Their intent—whether fueled by envy or malice—is to destabilize your progress and dim your joy. If you’ve felt held down just as you started to rise, it may not be a mere coincidence. It may be time to cleanse, shield, and reclaim your momentum.

“Open The Pathway & Return to Sender” Ritual for Breaking Bad Luck & Psychic Attacks

Best performed on a waning moon or Sunday morning.

What You’ll Need:

  • 1 white candle (for purity and clarity)
  • 1 black candle (for protection and banishment)
  • A small bowl of sea salt or Florida Water
  • A mirror or reflective object
  • A pinch of rosemary or bay leaf (for clearing)
  • Your best strong voice and focused intention

Ways To Handle A Psychic Attack Ritual Steps:

How to remove curses and bad luck in life

  1. Set Your Sacred Space: Clean the area physically, then spiritually with incense, bells, or sage. Place the mirror in front of you so it reflects away from your body.
  2. Create Your Circle of Protection: Imagine you’re sitting in a circle with a strong barrier of light all around, three feet above your head and three feet under your feet. Sit with both candles in front of you, white on your right and black on your left. Place the salt or Florida Water between them. Light both candles.
  3. Speak Aloud: “By the light of truth and the flame of protection,
    All energy not mine, all harm sent to me,
    Be reflected back to source, no longer bound to me.
    I am shielded. I am sovereign. I am free.”
  4. Sprinkle a few grains of salt onto the mirror, imagining it sealing your aura with reflective light. Then gently blow the herbs across the candle flames, saying: “Misfortune dissolves. My path is clear and only light, love, and blessings may follow me now.”
  5. Sit in silence for a few minutes, feeling your energy field lighten. When complete, extinguish the candles and wash your hands in the salt or Florida Water.
  6. Say it like you mean it from your core. I am cleansed and free; good luck and opportunities follow me. And so it is.

Accidental Psychic Attacks

On the other hand, accidental psychic attacks often stem from worry, fear, or emotional intensity toward someone we care about. Though rooted in concern, these powerful thought-forms can still energetically burden the recipient, who may unknowingly absorb those fears. In both cases, the affected individual may then pass on that energy unconsciously to others, continuing a chain of emotional disruption. Awareness, spiritual hygiene, and energetic boundaries are key to breaking this cycle and restoring harmony.

Contrary to popular belief, not all psychic attacks are malicious. They can arise from strong negative thoughts, jealousy, resentment, or fear projected by others, even unconsciously. Just like words and actions can hurt, energy can. It could stem from jealousy, cross words, and be unintentionally sent by a friend, sibling, colleague, or someone you ran into in some way who doesn’t like you or dislikes something you did that they took offence at in some bizzar way.

Psychic Attack While Sleeping

Psychic attacks during sleep are often experienced as unsettling dreams, sudden anxiety upon waking, or an unshakable feeling of heaviness or dread. While the body rests, the spiritual field can be more vulnerable—especially if emotional stress or energetic imbalance is present. These attacks may stem from unresolved energetic ties, negative entities, or even envy or malice projected by others.

Whether subtle or intense, the effects can leave you drained, irritable, or disconnected from your inner peace. Fortunately, awareness is your first shield—along with grounding rituals, protective crystals, and calling in your guides before going to sleep.

Night Terrors Full Blow Psychic Attacks

Psychic attacks often occur during sleep

Night terrors experienced by psychics and empaths are more than just bad dreams—they can be full-blown psychic attacks. Those with brightly colored, high-vibrational auras shine like beacons in the spiritual realm, drawing the attention of wandering lower entities that feed off fear. These attacks are engineered to induce terror, creating energetic openings from which these beings can siphon your life force.

You may feel like you’re wrestling to escape, unable to move your body, while your spirit struggles to break free—this is not imagination but a spiritual confrontation. Often, these come from lower elemental spirits or hungry astral parasites.

Spiritual Discernment

One of the most deceptive tactics used by spiritual parasites during psychic attacks is to mimic the presence of someone you deeply love or trust. They cloak themselves in familiar energy, appearing in dreams or spiritual encounters as a cherished friend, a lost loved one, or even a divine figure. But as your spirit reaches toward them, an unshakable sense of dread, heaviness, or inner alarm reveals their true nature.

That feeling is not fear—it is spiritual discernment. Trust it. The moment you feel that energetic shift, do not embrace them. Back away immediately. These entities are not who they pretend to be—they are energetic predators attempting to infiltrate your aura through emotional attachment. Stand firm in your light, and command their illusion to fall. Speak with authority:

“You are not who you claim to be. I reject this false presence. Archangel Michael, shield me now!”

Your discernment is your sword—wield it without hesitation.

The key to stopping them is visualizing yourself surrounded by pure white light and calling upon Archangel Michael, the great protector. With a single call—“Archangel Michael, protect me now!”—his sword of light cleaves through the darkness, and the attack ceases instantly. You are never truly alone; your light is more powerful than any shadow. There is nothing to fear but fear itself.

Shielding Before Sleep – “Circle of Light” Ritual

It’s a lot like grounding

If this happens frequently, do this ritual every night for at least four weeks. Sit comfortably on your bed. Ensure your bedroom is gridded with a piece of selenite ( to welcome in angelic energies) and black tourmaline (to guard against negative energies). Also, place a lapis lazuli or amethyst under your pillow or nightstand.

  1. Close your eyes and visualize a brilliant sphere of white-gold light expanding from your heart, growing to surround your entire body.
  2. Say aloud or silently: “I call upon Divine Light to encircle me now.
    No being or force may enter my space without my conscious consent.
    My body is sacred. My spirit is sovereign. I command all energies not aligned with my highest good to leave now.
    I am shielded. I am safe. I am protected.”
  3. Envision the light solidifying like crystal armor, glowing and impenetrable.
  4. Thank your spirit guides, angels, or higher self for their protection.

Repeat this ritual each night before sleep.

Signs You Might Be Experiencing a Psychic Attack

Particular objects, especially crystals, mirrors, and glass, are natural conductors and energy deflectors. These items reflect our physical image and interact with the spiritual energy flowing through a space. When there’s a strong concentration of negative energy—whether from emotional conflict, spiritual intrusion, or psychic attack—glass can act as a sponge or barrier, absorbing the intensity until it can no longer hold it.

Mirrors may suddenly fall and shatter, or a flower vase or a drinking glass may crack without any logical explanation. These breaks are not mere accidents—they’re energetic warnings. The sudden destruction is a sign that the object has taken the brunt of a hostile or harmful force. If such events occur in your home, it’s often a clue that someone sends you negative energy or “bad vibes.” It’s a call to cleanse the space, fortify your energy field, and shield your environment with spiritual protection.

While it’s important not to jump to conclusions, common symptoms associated with psychic attack include:

  • Sudden fatigue or heavy energy
  • Frequent headaches or trouble sleeping
  • Unexplained fear, anxiety, or depression
  • Persistent negative thoughts that feel “not yours”
  • Strained relationships or miscommunication out of the blue
  • Bad luck or strange obstacles popping up consistently

These signs can also indicate stress, trauma, or illness—so be sure to consider all angles and, if needed, seek professional support.

Cleanse Your Environment

Saging yourself and your home is a timeless ritual for spiritual protection, clearing away stagnant or negative energy with the sacred smoke of white sage or other purifying herbs. To sage yourself, light the tip of the sage bundle until it smolders, then gently wave the smoke around your body, starting at your feet and moving upward with intention, paying special attention to the heart, head, and hands.

A Quick Way To Cleanse The Energy with Sage
Smuding with sage sticks

Hold a clear thought or spoken affirmation as you move the smoke, such as “I release all energy that does not serve me; I am protected and whole.” To cleanse your home, open a few windows to allow energy to flow out, and walk through each room clockwise, wafting the smoke into corners, doorways, and shadowy spaces where energy tends to collect. Visualize your home filling with light and peace, anchoring a sense of sanctuary in every room.

Guard Your Windows and Doors

Salt has long been revered as a powerful tool for spiritual protection, and one of the simplest ways to use it is by shielding your windows and doors to block negative energy from entering your space. To create a salt barrier, sprinkle a thin line of sea salt or Himalayan salt along window sills and thresholds, with the intention of sealing your home in light and safety.

As you lay the salt, speak or think a protective affirmation like, “Only love and light may enter here.” You can enhance the ritual by mixing the salt with protective herbs such as rosemary or crushed bay leaves, or by drawing small protective symbols in the salt for added strength. This creates an energetic boundary that discourages unwanted influences and helps keep your sanctuary calm, clear, and aligned.

Protection Knot Stickers

Psychic Protection Knot Stickers are designed to protect you, your loved ones, and your home. Place these stickers on your favorite objects to keep portals closed from unwelcomed visitors and unwanted negative energy.

What do I mean by portals? Portals are found in mirrors, religious symbols, religious objects, figurines, statues, artwork, wall hangings, and sometimes watches/jewelry/accessories. Technically, anything can be used as a portal. You can buy them from our store or make them yourself.

Crystals Grids

Psychic shielding your home with a crystal grid is a powerful and beautiful way to anchor protective energy into your space. Begin by choosing crystals known for their shielding qualities—black tourmaline, obsidian, smoky quartz, and selenite are all excellent choices. Place these stones at key points around your home, such as the four corners of your property or each room, creating a geometric pattern that forms a protective net of energy.

Super Charge The Crystal Grid

You can amplify the grid by placing a central crystal, like clear quartz, in the heart of your home to act as a conductor and enhancer. As you arrange each stone, set a clear intention for safety, peace, and energetic purity, visualizing a dome of light expanding over your space. This crystal grid acts like a psychic shield, deflecting low vibrations and keeping your environment spiritually secure and harmonized. I use Selenite and tourmalated quartz in each corner of each room.

Wear the Right Crystals

Wearing smoky quartz or lapis lazuli as a pendant over your heart chakra serves as a powerful personal psychic shield, blending spiritual protection with deep inner alignment. Smoky quartz grounds and neutralizes negative energy, creating a calming barrier between you and chaotic external forces, while lapis lazuli enhances intuitive wisdom and wards off psychic interference with regal strength.

When worn over the heart, these stones not only shield your energetic core but also help you stay emotionally centered and spiritually clear. As a pendant, they rest at the gateway between your inner truth and the world, acting like guardians that transmute lower vibrations before they reach your sensitive heart space. Set your intention as you place the pendant each day—inviting protection, clarity, and sovereignty to radiate from within.

Call Upon The Archangel Michael To Cut The Cords

Call upon Archangel Michael to protect you

Call upon Archangel Michael and his legion of angels with clarity and trust, inviting their presence into your energy field. Visualize Archangel Michael, radiant in divine light, holding his mighty sword of truth and protection. With strength and love, ask him to cut all negative cords and energetic bonds that may have attached themselves to you—whether through fear, doubt, past connections, or unseen influences.

See These Negative Cords Dissolving

See these cords dissolve in flashes of light, releasing you from anything that no longer serves your highest good. As the angels work around you, feel your energy clear, lifted ,and restored. With a grateful heart, thank Archangel Michael and his divine legion for their unwavering protection, guidance, and grace, knowing you are safely held in the shield of heavenly light.

Who Is Most Vulnerable To Psychic Attack?

Anyone can experience a psychic attack, but those who are psychic empaths, spiritually sensitive, or energetically open may be more susceptible. Energy healers, intuitives, lightworkers, and those undergoing spiritual awakening often report such experiences as they tune into the subtle layers of reality.

Being emotionally ungrounded or lacking healthy boundaries can also leave you more open to energetic interference.

Defend Your Energetic Boundaries

When faced with a psychic attack, picture yourself as the hero in your own enchanted tale. You’re not just defending your energy—you’re dancing through shadows with a lantern in hand. Crystal talismans, salt circles, protective chants, and full-moon baths become part of your toolkit—not because you fear the dark, but because you know how to shine.

The energy behind a psychic attack can’t hold if you refuse to feed it. Laugh out loud. Call on your guides. Write your fears into a candle flame and watch them melt. You are a sovereign being cloaked in stardust, and no stray thought or low vibration can claim what is divinely yours.

Ways To Handle A Psychic Attack: Protection!

How to Protect Yourself

The good news? You have far more power than you might think. Here are ways to strengthen your energetic defenses:

Psychic Shielding How To Strengthen Your Energy Shield
When you need to strengthen your energy field
  1. Set Clear Boundaries
    Just like in everyday life, strong personal boundaries protect your energy. Be mindful of who you share your space, energy, and emotions with.
  2. Cleanse Your Energy Field
    Use tools like sage, palo santo, sound bowls, salt baths, or visualization to cleanse your aura regularly.
  3. Ground Yourself
    Grounding connects you back to the Earth and helps you release unwanted energy. Spend time in nature, walk barefoot, or meditate with the intention of rooting yourself.
  4. Use Protection Techniques
    Visualize yourself surrounded by a white or golden light. Some use crystals like black tourmaline, obsidian, or amethyst for protection.
  5. Call in Spiritual Support
    Whether you pray, call on your spirit guides, angels, or simply your higher self, connecting to your spiritual team can be powerful in times of energetic distress.
  6. Don’t Feed the Fear
    Psychic attacks lose power when you stop giving them your energy. Center yourself, reclaim your control, power, and trust in your inner resilience.


Frequently Asked Questions and Answers: Psychic Attack


Q1: What is a psychic attack?
A: A psychic attack is the projection of negative energy, intentions, or emotions toward another person, either consciously or unconsciously. These attacks can cause emotional, mental, physical, or spiritual distress and often manifest as fatigue, confusion, bad luck, or fear without a clear cause.


Q2: How do I know if I’m under a psychic attack?
A: Common signs include sudden exhaustion, disturbed sleep, recurring nightmares, unexplained mood swings, frequent arguments, financial mishaps, or a general sense of being drained or watched. You may also notice items breaking or strange patterns of misfortune following a period of success.


Q3: Can psychic attacks happen accidentally?
A: Yes. Well-meaning but intense thoughts—like fear, worry, or obsession—can unintentionally affect others, especially if they are emotionally or energetically linked. These are known as accidental psychic attacks, and while they’re not malicious, they still require energetic clearing.


Q4: Who is most vulnerable to psychic attacks?
A: Empaths, psychics, healers, and spiritually open individuals with bright, high-vibrational auras tend to attract attention from both people and entities—especially when they shine brightly or experience spiritual growth. Their light draws in both the curious and the hostile.


Q5: Can psychic attacks come from spirits or entities?
A: Yes. Some attacks originate from lower-dimensional spirits, parasitic entities, or elemental beings who feed on fear, anger, or chaos. These entities may appear in dreams, mimic loved ones, or induce sleep paralysis to weaken your spiritual boundaries.


Q6: What should I do if I suspect a psychic attack?
A: Immediately ground your energy, call in spiritual protection (such as Archangel Michael), and perform a cleansing ritual using tools like sage, Florida Water, or salt. Strengthen your aura with affirmations, cut energetic cords, and avoid engaging with low-vibrational people or media.


Q7: How can I protect myself from future psychic attacks?
A: Daily practices such as energetic shielding, spiritual hygiene, calling on your guides, carrying protective crystals (like black tourmaline or obsidian), and staying emotionally centered are key. Boundaries are both spiritual and practical—honor them well.


Q8: Can I unintentionally send a psychic attack to someone?
A: Yes. Strong negative emotions—especially jealousy, anger, or obsession—can form thought-forms that affect others. Mindfulness, forgiveness, and energetic clearing help prevent this. Always send love, not fear.


Q9: Do I need a psychic or healer to remove an attack?
A: Not always. You have the power to protect and cleanse yourself. However, if symptoms persist despite your efforts, a trusted spiritual healer or energy worker can help identify and clear deeper attachments or karmic entanglements.


Q10: What’s the difference between bad luck and a psychic attack?
A: Bad luck tends to be random and short-lived. A psychic attack often brings a series of unexplained challenges, emotional instability, or spiritual disturbances, especially when one’s energy has been high or one’s success triggers envy in others.

Be Mindful of Who You Let Into Your Energy

Whether you view psychic attack as an energetic phenomenon or a metaphor for emotional strain, the underlying message is the same: be mindful of what and who you allow into your energetic space. Awareness is the first step to protection, and self-empowerment is your greatest defense.

Remember, your energy is sacred, and you have the right to guard it fiercely.

Remember, You Are More Powerful Than Psychic Attack


So the next time a psychic attack rattles your windows or stirs the wind, smile. Let it remind you that your magic is alive and well, and you’re walking between worlds with your heart open and your energy protected. The universe loves a soul that remembers who they are.


Until next time, love, light and Angel blessings
