Nevertheless, sometimes we are (I hate this word) victims of spiritual attack, and there are methods that can be used to combat the attack. The ones I will suggest should work decently in both cases mentioned. 1. Just one spell will not do. Set up a regular banishing routine. The LBRP, the Lapis Lazuli Circle of Light/Setting of the Wards of Power (Aurum Solis), the Tantric Banishing (or any of the banishings) given by Nema in "Way of Mystery" will do nicely. (I heartily recommend that book, btw.) 2. After you banish, meditate. Try Zazen or Mimi's "Star Exercise". This will help calm your mind to discern what is going on, as well as strengthening your powers of concentration and (I believe) your subtle bodies. Making or buying a witches ladder (which Mimi also sells) and repeating a mantram is a good form of meditation. 3. Take a spiritually cleansing bath. I love these. 4. Get some Frank&Myrhh, or Rosemary insence. These two types of insence, I notice, make nasty spirits and entities hack like they have bronchitis. Angelica is a strong protective herb you can use in charms. 5. And, finally, there are spiritual entities that are protective in nature that are beneficial to everyone. I am talking about Archangels- not the fluffy hallmark beings on your Christmas cards, but the servants of the Most High called upon by Hermetics and Magicians over centuries. Michael is excellent for protection and gettting rid of evil spirits, and Raphael is wonderful for the healing that comes afterward. I've worked with both of these spirits and I don't know what I would do without them. Here are some books that I would recommend for you, that deal with protecting oneself from astral nasties. Protection and Reversal Magick by Jason Miller Best of Luck, Kitty
The Magic Sheild by Francis Melville
Angels: Companions in Magick by SilverRavenWolf (yes, I am recommending a $ilver book. This one is fluffy a bit, but has some good pointers for beginners in working with angels magickally. So deal, guys.)
