What is Entity Clearing?

Updated: 16 hours ago

Entity clearing, also known as spirit clearing, negative entity removal or energy clearing, is a subtle yet powerful process designed to release negative energies, spiritual attachments and entities that can influence a person’s life, health, space or environment. The term “entity” in this context refers to non-physical beings or negative thought forms (as is often the case with ‘curses’) that may be intended for a person, object or location impacting physical, mental, emotional and spiritual wellbeing. Entity clearing is a technique used in energy healing practices, shamanic traditions and spiritual healing modalities to restore balance, health, peace and vitality.


What Are Entities?

Entities are often described as disembodied spirits or energies that lack a physical form but are able to attach themselves to living beings or spaces. These entities can range from lost human souls (spirit attachments or sometimes called ghosts) wanting to live out their karma, aliens and reptoids with a negative and interfering agenda, negative energy imprints, energetic parasites and intended psychic attacks, curses or black magic. Entities are not always malicious and in most of my clearings this has proven to be the case, but their presence can be disruptive and disorientating causing emotional, mental or even physical distress.


Entities can also manifest as thought forms - energy patterns created by concentrated emotions or intentions, often negative in nature, which become self-perpetuating and can latch onto people or environments. These attachments can subtly influence a person's thoughts, behaviours and moods, often leading to a sense of unease or imbalance and in severe cases psychosis and schizophrenia.


How do NEGATIVE Entities attach?

Entities can be picked up in a variety of places and situations. It is usually through vulnerability and a feeling of helplessness, invitation (consciously or subconsciously) or through fractured energy fields often caused by drug and alcohol use. Occasionally it can happen when your light is strong and the entities would like to experience it. Some of the most common locations and circumstances include:


  1. Physical Spaces (Homes and Buildings): Old homes, hospitals, psych wards or locations with a turbulent history, can be breeding grounds for entities. These entities may be attracted to the energy of conflict, death or trauma that has occurred there, creating an energetic imprint and opening that can attract spirits to linger.


  2. Crowded or Negative Environments: Spending time in heightened energetic places such as hospitals, nursing homes, prisons, pubs, cemeteries or crowded public spaces can expose a person to negative, fearful or discordant energies. These entities can attach themselves to you if you are vulnerable or unaware of how to protect your energy as they enjoy looshing or feeding off the negative energy in these environments.


  3. Traumatic Events: People who have been through trauma, such as abuse, sudden loss, accidents or surgeries may become more susceptible to energetic attachments. These experiences can create openings in a person’s energetic field that entities can exploit and ‘play’ with.


  4. Low-Vibrational Emotional States: When people experience extreme fear, grief, anger or sadness, their energetic field becomes weaker and fractured, making it easier for negative entities or energetic attachments to attach to them.  It is often in these low mood states that vulnerabilities show up.  Entities love vulnerability.  In vulnerable states of being people will often ask for help - “somebody help me”.  This is a direct invitation to an entity. The key here is to ask for specific help from positive sources. God, the Divine light, Source, Angels, a spiritual guide, just not “somebody”!


  5. Intoxicants or Altered States: Drug and alcohol use and even deep states of altered consciousness, can lower and open up one's energetic defences, allowing entities or lower vibrational beings to attach.


  6. Psychic or Spiritual Openings: Individuals who practice certain forms of meditation,  astral travelling, engage in deep psychic work or explore spiritual practices without proper protection or grounding techniques can unintentionally invite entities into their energy field. 


Entity Clearing for Individuals

Entity clearing for individuals is a healing process aimed at removing unwanted or intrusive energetic attachments, curses, negative entities or blockages that are affecting a person's wellbeing. These attachments can often manifest as emotional or mental disturbances, such as uncommon anxiety, depression or a sense of being drained of energy. Other examples are sudden and sharp pains in the body that have no explanation of how they developed or arrived, displaying different mannerisms to the norm or constantly sensing someone 'there' or on your 'shoulder'. By clearing entities, individuals can regain their vitality and sense of self, helping them to reconnect with their bodies and higher consciousness.


Here are some of the key benefits of entity clearing for individuals:


  1. Mental Clarity: Many people who experience energetic attachments feel confused, foggy or mentally distracted, experience headaches and a strong sense they are ‘not feeling themselves’. Clearing entities can help restore clarity of thought and improve focus.


  2. Emotional Stability: Negative entities can contribute to emotional instability, exacerbating feelings of anxiety, depression, fear, sadness or anger. Entity clearing helps to restore emotional balance, allowing individuals to feel more grounded and at peace.


  3. Improved Health: Energetic attachments can drain a person’s life force, leading to chronic fatigue, apathy, illness or discomfort. Clearing entities allows the person to reclaim their vital energy, which may result in better physical health.


  4. Spiritual Protection: Entity clearing can help an individual reclaim their energetic sovereignty, preventing negative forces from affecting or blocking their spiritual growth and wellbeing.


Entity Clearing for Spaces, Workplaces and Building Sites

Public spaces such as workplaces, office buildings and other physical locations such as land and building sites can also become energetically imbalanced due to the presence of unwanted and intrusive negative entities and energetic blockages or unexplained

stagnation on workplace progress or development of land and building projects. Energy blocks can also show up in not being able to sell a home, continuous and repeated issues with health after moving into a new home environment, sudden blocks in career and relationship disharmony or problems with laying foundations and forward progression within building and construction. Entity clearing for spaces involves identifying and removing these attachments to restore harmony within the environment and clear issues causing disruption.


Why is space clearing important?


  1. Unresolved Energy: In homes or buildings where there has been conflict, death, repeated arguments, corrupt or inappropriate behaviour, high stress or emotional trauma; energetic imprints can linger in the space. It is just like physical clutter that builds up only this one is energetic and the congestion cannot be ‘seen’. These energies can make people feel uncomfortable, restless or anxious and hinder good intentions and progress.


  2. Health Implications: Negative energy in a space can affect the health of those who occupy it. People may experience headaches, tension, sleep disturbances, nervous system complications or a general feeling of being unwell when in these environments. Think about those times when you have walked into a room after there has been an argument. The energy is very much “alive and raw” and you can cut the air with a knife!  You may find you leave the room without even realising why.


  3. Lack of Harmony: A space filled with negative energy can feel "off" or disharmonious, causing tension and making it difficult for individuals to relax or feel comfortable. Clearing energetic attachments can restore the natural flow of energy, creating a balanced and peaceful environment.


Common Space Clearing Methods:

  • Smudging: Burning sage, palo Santo and other sacred herbs to cleanse and purify the space.

  • Sound Healing: Using sound such as bells, singing bowls or tuning forks to shift the energy of a space and clear stagnant or negative energy.

  • Intuition and psychic communication: Using focused intention, intuitive sensing and communication with the spirits and entities to clear the space.


What an Entity clearing Session Involves

An entity clearing session typically involves several steps, whether it’s for an individual or a physical space. The process is generally conducted by a trained healer, energy worker or psychic and can vary depending on the modality being used. Here is a basic outline of what my session might entail:


  1. Initial Assessment & permission: A phone call or zoom call to connect with the client to discuss and identify any energetic imbalances, when they may have started and what effects it has had. This discussion also includes verbal permission to clear. It is important to note here that this is energetic work and is not restricted by time or space.  It is a discussion and clearing that can be done remotely but only with permission to work with a person’s energy field or private space.


  2. Grounding and Protection: Off the phone/zoom call - In a quiet space and before beginning any clearing work, I will ground myself and the client, ensuring there is protection from any negative influences during the process.


  3. Energy Clearing: The use of various tools and techniques such as intention, psychic conversation, intuitive sensing, divination methods, sound, light or smudge sticks to clear the attachments or entities on a person or in a particular space. This may also involve calling in one’s spiritual guides.


  4. Integration: After the clearing of negative attachments, I carry out integration work to help the individual or space adjust to and anchor the new, clear energy. This may involve chakra balancing, energy healing and specific protection techniques to restore balance and harmony.


  5. Follow-up: Some sessions may include a quick phone call to check in immediately after the clearing, where the individual is guided to maintain their energetic boundaries, protect their space or learn specific practices to prevent future attachments. Occasionally an additional session may be required to complete more clearings as they arise.


Examples of Entity Clearing Cases


1. One client of mine that worked in a jail instantly noticed a change in thought patterns and questioned her mental health when she heard a voice scream inside her head. She recalls the exact moment when she knew something was different. She started to walk like a man, noticed her eating behaviours were uncouth and became more aggressive in her conversation.  She had taken on a male entity that was an ex-criminal who had died in the jail many years ago.


2. Another client started having vivid dreams of knowing she was going to kill someone.  She described the knowing of not being able to stop her behaviour ; like a werewolf under the full moon. When I questioned where she had been recently, she mentioned  she attended a funeral, followed by a walk through the cemetery with a friend afterwards.  I discovered an entity attached via the cemetery that was a female murderer in their lifetime on earth.


Both clients returned to their normal selves immediately after clearing off the entities.


3. A third client was introduced to me through a family member having concerns for her schizophrenic brother who was in a mental health ward of a hospital.  Doctors were in a state of not knowing what to do as he was heading downhill fast. I was asked to do a clearing as a last resort by the family member (after she gained permission from her brother).  I found the client had multiple entity attachments and cleared the majority in the first session. I was excited to hear that the following morning he had stabilised and the Doctors didn’t understand why.  I followed up with a second clearing 10 days later and removed all traces of negative attachments that were present at the time.  Within a few weeks the doctors were so impressed with his improvement that he came off the registry for schizophrenics and returned home with no more episodes.  I never directly spoke with this man, however I believe he is doing well.


Conclusion


Entity clearing is a profound and transformative practice that can release negative influences, energetic attachments and entities from individuals and spaces. By removing these energetic blockages, individuals can experience improved mental, emotional and physical health, as well as greater clarity, sense of freedom and a return to balance. Whether in a personal healing session or clearing the energy of a home or workplace, entity clearing can restore harmony, promote wellbeing and help create a sense of re-alignment with one's higher self and highest intention. Regular entity and space clearing practices can help to declutter personal space and allow clear and positive energy to flow in.
