I have seen threads about people being attacked by "things" (I'm unsure of what to call it exactly). I have heard of people being possessed or attacked by invisible ( or visible ) forces.
To date, while I have encountered unexplained things that have frightened me and have felt threatened by things I could not explain, I have never had some long drawn out battle to rid myself or a situation of anything. Nor have I feared anything in many many years.
Now, I'm not inviting anything with my questions, but I am curious as to how frequently these things happen. I've always considered myself well protected, though I couldn't begin to tell anyone how. Perhaps I've just been lucky.
Are attacks, threats, ect frequent and something I should be concerned about?
Forgive me if I sound ignorant, I just really do not understand all the protection spells and threats from other beings.
The fact that I'm watching " The exorsism of emily rose " has nothing to do with this, I swear! =P
Interesting question, i'd also like to know... But not to protect myself from it, i'd kill for something that strange to happen! Thus, a few provocation tips will be greatly appreciated...
Unfortunately, i'm more likely to suffer a vicious attack by (less-interesting) humans for having said that... oh, well.
Here is some personal experience, the more out there you put yourself in magick, astral or even spirituality the more attacks you will encounter, as the soul expands it stands out like a volcano in a sea of darkness, everyone needs to know basic shielding, if you get into a habit of shielding every night before going to sleep it will become a solid construct which only needs to be recharge every couple of days, also, Know Thyself, know how your body, mind and soul feels and is supposed to feel, and when it isn't feeling the way it should try and analyze why till you isolate the problem, is it from yourself or an outside force, if you cannot do this by yourself there are quite a few truly gifted people on the site who will be able to see through you to the cause.

Kao is right about the more you put yourself into magic the more you will encounter. Shielding is the beat way to deal with this. While you meditate make a bubble around your body. It can be as big or as little as you want. Make it out of what ever you wish. It can be just energy or you can place a wall around you made of any material. Some people have shields up even before they know they do. Sometimes they are placed by others, sometimes they are made from the subconscious. The more you work with your shields the easier it becomes to create and maintain one. For they do need to be repaired from time to time. As you work with your shields you will know when something has been deflected and when something has not. If you have any further questions, as always feel free to pm me.
