I just made the mistake of trying to channel alone.

[Minyatur]

I just now called for a contact to channel from, and began writing down the answers to my questions. after about two pages, I suddenly realized that

A) my challenge to the channeling source was half-hearted, and I did not receive a very affirmative "Yes" in response.

B) Every answer that I was receiving was dragging down my heart, slowly making me feel more depressed and glum.

I had a jolt of fear/awakeness/excitement/alertness. I closed my eyes, and clearly saw an entity, distinguishable from my regular negative thought-forms, doing something with intent, but sort of struggling at it. It was pulling and wrapping and trying to connect things with it's long noodly metaphysical arms. At first I was afraid, because this has never happened before. But then I realized it was really having a hard time, it was rather frantic, and it got more frantic once I realized what it was trying to do (attach to me more permanently, and then probably suck my energy until I rid myself of it).

I observed it for 20 seconds or so out of sheer curiosity, my mouth was gaping open. Then I realized the longer I waited, the more power it was gaining over my being, and the more fear I was experiencing. So I IMMEDIATELY furrowed my brow, and said, FIRMLY AND CLEARLY, "You Need To Leave. LEAVE." and projected as much love as I could through the center of my brain, towards it (I tried to love it as I sent it away, and I truly did love it, because it was teaching me how to use discernment in the future, and how to handle negative entities like itself). Since it was already struggling without resistance, it was gone instantly. After the "smoke cleared," so to speak, I felt a little bit drained, but also relieved and at peace. I've never felt so grateful for being alone, haha...

Okay, so that's what happened. I'm not going to try channeling again anytime soon, I'm definitely too inexperienced to do it alone. I'm kind of flustered right now, I've never encountered a negative entity, ever, not even on my mega-deep LSD or DMT trips. And now I just met one, sober.

Has anyone here had to fight off a negative entity? If so please share. I'm really thankful for the experience, now I have some sort of idea as to my strength as a metaphysical entity. I kind of feel delusional though, as in, did that really just happen? Or am I crazy?

Did you experience actual spirits (not negative entities) on LSD or DMT? On magic mushrooms I had a few experiences with spirits, like literally opening myself to be a channel so that something talks to my friend (happened with 2 of them), feeling the emotional body of another self within myself, that was neat. I made a friend stop with me more than once in the mountain's forest near my home because I would feel a spirit that was there to heal, could feel their pain. I'd make us stop and make him scan the surrounding space to see if he felt something and he always ended up describing the exact vibe I was perceiving from the exact direction. One time we both diverged from our path and walked toward a tree and put one hand each on it, we could feel great sorrow from this old tree that was falling apart, like a strong feeling of not wanting to leave this place and I'd try to mentally tell it it will move on to experience so many great things, I found it really hard to remove my hand and leave the tree. We had a not-so-neggie friend that hung out with us on more than one trip and which seemed to be like messing with us or either teaching us something. I have another friend that always had a negative entity on himself at each and every trip he did, it's like hard not to feel the presence from it as it was directly harming him. My sober state is not so open to outer energies (much more so at the time than now), so that was quite the unusual experiences. I did quite a lot of them last year and none so far this year.

About show-off with negative entities, I had more experiences when I became a self-taught christian because of a friend. I was like heavily harassed and my defense was, yeah you guessed it, the power of Christ, so idk if that's what you're looking for.. As for now I usually take an interest in what energy the negative entity sends me and feel like I discover things about it like I'm following a trail with genuine interest and then it leaves suddenly. I felt like actually sad maybe 2 times about it, also somewhat upset it left. I never really had much visual experiences but one time (christian days), I was praying eyes closed and it's like everything got flipped upside-down for a few seconds and I saw 2 shadow persons fronm their back talking about me and I know they were plotting against me. I wasn't so sure about the origin of the "Vision" but now I'd say the Higher Self. (I bet the plotters are still there hiding)

My other mean of defense is that I tell negative entities that whatever is my polarity when I am out of here, I will surely pay them back their focus a thousandfold. That even in positive polarity, I will tear of their shell of darkness from them bits by bits until I uncover their light self buried within it that reaches out to me. I can't know whether I can even go through with that or not, but it sure always made me smile a whole lot to say.

I'm being attacked all the time lol, I've also reached a conclusion that they are able to influence you only in time/space, space/time is usually fear based and is easily rejected (spooky flying object)
but I've never actually managed to channel another entity, they are awaiting at the depths so to speak

Channeling is not so hard, unless you block it on a conscious or unconscious level.

I think the time/space idea is quite good, space/time manifestations are more like windows.
