What is shielding?
Shielding is the art of using intention against intention, energy against energy, positivity against negativity. When we create anything in our mind, it sets out to be created in real life; this is the basis of how manifestation works! Unfortunately, ideas, thoughts, and visualization can sometimes happen on accident when we daydream; yes, these ideas, thoughts, and visualizations can manifest on accident as well! These manifestations can be as small as a hit of harmful energy or run of bad luck. In order to protect ourselves from accidental harmful energy or intended harm, we counter those harmful manifestations by purposefully manifesting our own positive energy around us.In short, shielding is the act of visualizing yourself surrounded by positivity or positive imagery in order to reflect, dispel, or dissolve harmful intentions, energy, and manifestations. It’s protection against non-mundane threats.Wondering how you shield? We’ve got you.
