4.1 – Lightwork: Light Protection

Before any spiritual work, Light Protection should be carried out. There are many different methods and exercises. Here I want to show you a simple and very effective method, which is recommended especially in this time of transition, as many dark forces try to lure human beings to abandon their path or at least hinder them in their spiritual work. This is a threefold Light Protection – an exercise consisting of three parts.

We begin by turning to our guardian angel and spirit guide and thank them for the help they have provided. Now we ask our guardian angel to protect us during our spiritual work, to render dark forces powerless, and to support us during our spiritual work. We also ask our spirit guide to lead and assist us.

We become aware of the spark of divine light in our heart, which is our connection to God and our soul. We let this spark grow to a flame that gets bigger and bigger, and finally it becomes a small sun that fills our entire material body. It expands out through our entire aura, our soul, and enlightens it. Filled like that with light, darkness has no room inside of us. This light shines out far into the countryside and is a sign for other astral beings that light work is being exercised, and they rush to stand by your side.

Finally we ask for a beam of light from God which comes to us to form a protective and cleansing sphere. We are sitting in the middle of this sphere and within this sphere thoughts become pure, and all darkness and impurity stays outside. This is a cleansing of your thoughts and energies to keep darkness outside, because darkness has no room inside harmony and light. This is not the creation of a protective wall, instead it is a cleansing, harmonizing, enlightening, as well as raising of energies within the light sphere.

It is advisable not to imagine a protective wall, as such a wall symbolizes resistance. However, resistance gives strength and power to that what you want to avoid by resisting, thus causing the opposite effect of what you are trying to do. A protective shield is a temptation to the dark forces, to find weaknesses in your shield. It is important to realize that it is vital to accept the existence of darkness, and to fill yourself with light, as this is the only way you can truly protect yourself. Remember, where there is light, darkness has no room. Any darkness trying to reach you will only be enlightened, thus posing no risk to you, as it is no longer dark. Fear not the dark – just give it light. Darkness is part of creation just as you are, it is energy at a very low level, therefore do not fight it, but realize that being in and of the Light means darkness cannot harm you. Thus, practice being in Light frequently. This not only protects you, but brings you closer to your true self, as in essence you, your soul, are pure divine light.

This exercise can be completed within a few minutes, or can be expanded as a preparatory exercise for meditation. It is advisable to complete this exercise before any spiritual work, like meditation, light work, healing, and other work that is of spiritual nature. For a general protection from dark influences during this time of transition, it is recommended to complete this exercise at least once daily in the morning, and for optimum protection in the evening before your night rest so that it is also under the influence of light.
