Spiritual Cleansing: A Handbook of Psychic Protection

Everyone should have knowledge of the unseen world and how it can affect you. Because it is Real. Valuable information to spiritually protect oneself.

I have owned and used this book for years. It is important to note that when reading this book, it is not written in a typical "new age" style, nor is it written for those of the pagan faiths. This book is spiritual first aid for the spiritual person, and a first step for those aspiring to be spiritual practitioners. The author, Draja Mickaharic has given the reader several methods of psychic protection against all manner of harmful and negative energies floating around out there. I highly reccomend this book, and hope that you will get as much out of it as I did.

I think it's a great book to cleanse and protect oneself, especially from negativity. Many choices which is always a great thing and items are easy to find.

There arent many books available on the market that deal soley with spiritual cleansing. I was happy to find this one, Draja Mickaharic has given the reader a basic understanding of spiritual and psychich protection as well as guidelines on either choosing a spiritual practioner to work with or perhaps being one yourself. I especially liked the authors reccomended system of treatment for general therapy. The author gives the following seven suggestions. 1. Read this entire book and make note of what you feel applies to your particular problem 2. Take the beer bath for Malochia (evil eye) 3. Quiet your house with ammonia and the salt floor wash. Begin using amonia in the drains. 4. Begin sleeping with water. (a glass of water under the bed to catch harmfull energy) 5. Investigate any particular problem and take remedial baths, use incense, etc. 6. Keep your house quiet by frequent physical housecleaning and floor washings. 7. Begin systematic and regula prayers to your Creator according to your religous beliefs, praying on a daily basis. This excerpt was taken from page 91 of SPIRITUAL CLEANSING by Draja Mickaharic 1988 paperback edition. The whole book is like this, filled with helpfull suggestions and workings which can be utalized by anyone. As a side note, if you work with the catholic saints i would like to reccomend HELPING YOURSELF WITH SELECTED PRAYERS in addition to this book. Together the two books contain a wealth of spiritual help.

Those who think magic is nothing more than psychology, visualization, symbolism, and going through theatrics will probably not care for this no-nonsense practical guide to generic folk-magic cleansing and protection practices. Those who recognize the real ancient techniques and natural laws of sympathetic and contageous magic will find this to be a treasure trove of information and help.

This small, but valuable book is a formulary for the cleansing and protection of the body, your animals, and the environment in your house and office. He discusses the magical properties of the different types of water, herbs, herbal combinations, and tools, such as eggs and mothballs, which can be used to remove negative energies and establish energy screens for psychic protection. Included are spells and other formulas that you can use to focus your intent to increase positivity and abundance in your life and surroundings. Included are recipes for baths, incense mixtures, and floor washes. This may be the only book to my knowledge that collects this type of information in one place. I have used many of the procedures myself. For example, I used the "egg procedure" (where you rub an egg all over the body of your pet, and then flush the uncracked egg down the toilet) to remove negative "vibes" from my cats to lighten up their attitudes about a new home to which we had moved). I found the principles of cleansing and protection for the various methods described by the author to be both easy to do and quite effective in their results. Mickaharic does emphasize repeatedly throughout the book, that it is *not* wise to improvise any of the methods and components (such as herbs) described in the book, without completely understanding the magical implications, meanings and intent of each part of the spell. It is my guess that the author is from Eastern Europe based on his knowledge of traditional herbal floor washes and fumigation recipes to keep one's home environment psychically purified.
