Thread: soul sucking during dreams and meditation

This has scared the crap out of me and is why i joined this site

Okay, I'm a light sleeper and rarely remember my dreams but lately i've been having dreams about energy being sucked out of my body. sometimes its not even a dream, more a feeling i get when i'm lying in bed meditating or trying to get to sleep. It was horrible last night, i heard the floor creaking, the roof creaking like someone was sneaking around (everyone was in bed and the cat was outside) i also heard a rustling noise (like someone wearing a raincoat in the wind) thiis was all in my bedroom. i got up and turned all the lights on in the house, i grabbed my rose quartz, put on my onyx ring, pentagram ring, celtic cross and ankh thinking this might protect me (i also have a ring for good luck i brought off some voodoo shop online, but i had that on already), Put my oil burner next to my bed and put some lavender oil in it (i'm still working on my oil selection but lavender calms me) and after a few hours of sitting up in bed, all the lights on with my partner sound asleep beside me, i was feeling terrified and was chain smoking cigarettes to keep me awake. Eventually i couldn't fight my tiredness any longer and attempted to go to sleep, i was in the process of falling to sleep, just about there, when something shoved me, I let out a quiet scream and turned the light up, my patner put her arm out and hugged me and she had no idea what had happened the next morning.

I had a dream the night before about a spirit hovering over my bed trying to suck out my soul, i could feel myself being drained of something and woke up panicking, i feel it sometimes mildly during meditation and last year when i was in a really deep meditation it felt like something tried to rip my whole soul out of my body. I used to get halucinations out of the corner of my eye that looked like a smoky and silky version of death following me around.

I had another weird dream 2 years ago where a harpy took me up into the sky and i asked it if it was an angel so it hurled me to the ground and i felt the impact of me hitting the ground just before i woke up screaming.

I'm scared i'm going mental, i'm getting worse, getting too afraid to sleep and i have no idea what to do.

I'm not on any medication other than hormonal supplements, so i dont think its caused by medication i'm taking. I'm under alot of stress and have gone through alot of bad experiences in my life

does anyone know much about this or had similar experiences?

Have you tried Banishing and Shilding ?

You have to make sure that you look after yourself on all levels (mind, body and spirit) and learn to get grounded quickly, when you start becoming anxious, when these things occur, in your weaking state.

Stress will weaken you, unfortunately. So de-stressing your self has to be a priority asap.

I'm looking into banishing and shielding now, I'm still very new at all this and very scared. What's the worse that can happen, can my soul really get sucked out of me?

No, I don't beleive it can.
However , you might find yourself being very drained, though.
Look at the different threads here and go from there...

Vampyres tend to dream walk when they need energy desperately as a survival mechanism. However, if it is including during meditations - this is because during sleep and meditation people process the energies they've taken in all day.

It is similar to how a person who eats thanksgiving dinner just wants to sit and do nothing for a while because they are digesting everything. Same happens with taking in energy. Sleep and meditation help process that.

Im 2 scared to sleep now. Whatever is doing this to me isnt even waiting for me to sleep anymore. i saw two glowing eyes and yelled at it to get out of my house, then i felt multiple waves of energy flow through me, like cold shivers. i dont know whats happening to me. i rang emergency psychiatric Services coz i feel like im losing my mind, they they sending someone to check up on me tomorow. problem is i can still hear the f ucker moving around my house

Just keep yourself as calm as possible and remember nothings going to suck your soul out.
It is a good idea to get someone to have a look at you tomorrow.
Til then ground yourself. Feet firmly on the floor, become aware of your breathing. Try and slow it down. The faster your breath is, the harder it will be to stay calm. Stay firm, you will get through the night.

I agree with Light.

If you end up visualizing yourself as a tree, with your hands and fingers as the branches and your feet and toes as the roots... and you reach down into the earth and slowly breathe... increasing the breathing and taking the energy into yourself more and more. Each inhale used to take it in and each exhale used to stop the intake. When you're done you can draw the roots back into yourself. This will help you stay strong and grounded with the power of the earth. If you need to move quickly or just need a quick boost you can do the same thing with the wind... it might make you feel flightly though, so the earth is more suggested.

Banishing spells like the Lesser Banishing Ritual of the Pentagram work, or The Star Ruby. However, you could also summon a spirit or god/goddess and have them assist you in getting rid of the spirit.

Life, Health, and Strength to you.

Worst that could happen is you lose sanity or get sick. A spirit that is powerful enough to kill you wouldn't be able to manifest in this reality because it would severely limit its' power... along with other consequences. It is probably feeding off of your fear. You are either Awakening and becoming aware of energy (most people aren't this sensitive to spirits because they aren't aware) or you are actually loosing your mind. You should still seek professional help if the problem becomes too severe.

I think you have dormant energies that are coming up, but you're suppressing them out of fear. Perhaps, negative traumas or experiences are causing the disturbance and it is not due to magic, or maybe your version of magic is causing you to fear the unknown, and unleashing unresolved trauma from your past. Remember, you are in control...but the mind is also an organism with potential to heal and in the process, we can sometimes feel at odds with the universe...
