How to Protect Yourself from a Negative Energy

Whether your house is haunted or you just want to take extra precautions to ward away negative energies, there are several steps you can take in order to do so. As a historic/ghost tour guide in Saint Augustine, one of the most haunted cities in the U.S., I constantly am cleansing myself of negative spirits. I had a tour years ago where a medium claimed something nasty was following me home each night and causing chaos in my life. She told me about the certain crystals I could wear to protect myself.

I personally wear a couple of different crystals but the big one that wards off negative energies is Black tourmaline/Obsidian. These two stones are so dark, they are said to absorb the energy and keep it from coming in contact with you. I also wear crystals that introduce positive energies such as clear quartz. Clear quartz is also referred to as the master stone because healing properties. The use of crystals and the belief of spirits is something that dates all the way back to the ancient Egyptians and Romans.

A lot of people may also use white sage to cleanse the bad spirits out of the air. White sage is purifying and is used in many cultures to ward off negative energies from location/buildings. Some people believe that holy water and salt may also keep away negative spirits. It is never a bad idea to douse your crystals in holy water or holy oil.

I, for one, use all of these methods if I ever feel like something has followed me home from a tour and I’ve always been able to clear the negative energies from me. If you have already tried all of these steps, there are certain kits you can order online with everything you need to protect yourself. If you’ve tried every last resort- contact a professional exorcist, spiritualist, or demonologist.

Have a scary good day,

  1. I am trying to help a women who is bring tormented by a ghost, it touched her and she was injured, can you help me?

    1. honestly, as long as Liam doesn’t affect you or your family in ways that are negative, I would just learn to live with him like a sibling. Siblings can be annoying at times but can help you in others. Liam might be like another sibling.

  2. Hi I have a ghost tour coming up but I wear a cremation necklace is this going to affect my experience at all will this attract spirit more or will it ward off spirit ?

  3. I believe an evil entity is trying to enter my spirit door, I heard 3 knocks repeated twice & had a vision of a being with an ominous presence, could you help me protect myself. I’ve cleansed the house multiple times with the white sage as a previous mentor suggested. I’m having terrible bouts of insomnia & im scared to sleep. I denied it access but it’s presence still appeared. My gifts have been getting stronger, & I’ve tried to remain respectful by not misusing them. I came upon a house the other day while on a walk & it was covered by nature. I didn’t go in but I think something followed me back. I’ve also been getting messages that someone may have cursed me.

    1. Something you can start with is placing amethyst on all your window sills. If your main door has a ledge above it, maybe place some there as well. Just small pieces are usually enough.

      If sage hasn’t helped, you can try palo santo smudging. It will at least fill your home with positive energies. Sage should have removed the negativity…🤔

      Other than that, either wear obsidian, or other very black gemstone. You can always place some around the home as well. Or have a Reiki Master come over and clear the negativity out. That has been my last resort. Fortunately, I haven’t gotten that far yet.

      Sending positive energies your way.

    2. Ooh! I forgot to mention..

      For the insomnia, which is usually brought on by tension, stress, and/or fear, Lithium Crystals are THE BEST!

      I have lived with depression, anxiety, and panic disorder most of my life. It has led to agoraphobia. I’m terrified to leave my home most of the time! Driving is a nightmare when I do get out. I’ve actually hallucinated it got so bad.

      Someone suggested Lithium, so I tried it.

      Holy Cow!! I was still a little uneasy about walking out my door, but everything else was gone! The anxiety, fear, depression. I actually enjoyed my drive and was rockin out playing the steering wheel drum set!

      Anyway, that might be something to try for your insomnia as well. There are other stone that seem to directly help insomnia, but I can’t think of them atm. I do swear by Lithium tho!

      Hope that helps.

  4. Hi! Fellow Floridian in Orlando here. Recently went to night shift and our park has several areas of dark energy and feelings of fear. What’s the best way of protection without making any entity angry. I don’t want any interactions. I’m intensely afraid of the dark, being alone in the dark, and paranormal so this new job will be very tough. Thank you for your help!
