The Aftermath of Alien Attacks
how to shake their energetic holds
Q | Hi Libby! I hope you’re well. I’ve been enjoying going back through some of your highlight deep dives that I missed when they were live. I’ve been recovering from a rough year of what I now understand to be attacks and reading your words has been so soothing. So first and foremost a huge THANK YOU for all the effort you have put into sharing your insights and experience. It’s so healing.
One question I have for you is around the aftermath of dark situations or attacks. Has it been your experience that energy actually lingers in specific locations as a result of alien or demonic attacks? Or is it more that the aliens or demons use the memories of those experiences as unbroken ties as another opportunity to attack because they’re hoping there’s still potential for a wobble? And does the answer change the approach that should be taken at all? I hope this question makes sense!
A | I have a note in my calendar that reads, “It’s always aliens.” This reminder is written there because whenever paralysis sets back in for me, I go through all of the permutations of what I might have done to prompt it. Was it too much of this? Not enough of that? Am I heading in the wrong direction? With the return of the pain and the inability to move, it’s easy to spiral into beating myself up over believing that I’ve done something wrong.
Spoiler alert. I haven’t.
Even when it takes me literal months to come to the realization, it’s always aliens. They’re using the energetic echo of previous attacks and attachments to continue their hold on me. No matter how clear I am on knowing this, a sort of amnesia of awareness falls over me when I’m back in their clutches and can’t shake them loose. It’s part of their devious ways.
Energetic Muscle Memory
Particularly when we’ve been in their clutches for an extended period of time, our bodies — energetic and physical — become accustomed or calibrated to that predicament. It’s part of what keeps us alive. Our acclimations are the difference between discomfort and demise. The downside of that is the energetic muscle memory that has developed. Our systems are quick to return to that state when put under that stressor (or similar ones) again.
Sproing!! This kept us safe once before, says the body. I know what to do to protect us again.
Aliens and demons know this and use it to their advantage. They have a long history of manipulating humans and have been present on this planet for ages and are incredibly studied in all of the right buttons to push. These groups understand the human mind and body far better than their galactic counterparts. Galactics are just beginning to get the hang of how a human body works and are often still baffled by it.
Traces of Evil
Imprints of the attacks by aliens and demons can be left in all sorts of ways and in all sorts of places. We’ve all had those moments where we walk into a space and shudder knowing darkness has been there. Those are the easier elements to avoid. Feel the ick. Leave the space.
But what happens when that remnant is within your body? How do we handle it when it’s the echo of a thought reverberating to control our mind? Things get trickier. And yes, that’s absolutely by design — those jerks.
You can be completely free of the actual attachment or clear from an attack and still have this kind of thing bubble to the surface. It’s infuriating and at times debilitating. Often it feels like the rug has been pulled out from under you and everything you’ve learned about how to fend off darkness vanishes from your brain. Send out a lifeline.
Phone a Friend
In these moments, it can be impossible to reorient yourself. This is not a shortcoming. I can’t emphasize this enough. Does it bear repeating? THIS IS NOT A SHORTCOMING!! Again, it’s by design. If the aliens and demons can knock you off of your game and disorient you, they have the upper hand. They could never beat you if you were on even footing.
Do what you can to regain your bearings enough to reach out to a trusted friend who understands the nature of these attacks and their after effects. Chances are the voices in your head will tell you that you shouldn’t and that you’re a burden or that you can’t inconvenience someone with your stuff. Reach out anyway. You’ll never silence them. Learn to act in spite of what they’re saying.
Ideally you’ve established this connection prior to the echoes and the spiral. It can help to have a signal or code for when you’re in this space. Beginning a text with “knock knock” or another turn of phrase that lets the receiver know that you’re not quite yourself is often easier when asking for help is already being faced with a whole host of horrible internal voices trying to dissuade you from not going it alone.
Send the text. Pick up the phone. Listen to a trusted friend when he or she tells you that you aren’t crazy — because you’re not.
Little By Little
Over time, your body will learn that she doesn’t need to return to that place or revisit that reaction. It can absolutely feel like you’re backsliding when those same symptoms and thoughts and indicators take hold. You’re not. Each go round will be recognized more easily. You’ll bounce back more seamlessly and experience shorter and shorter durations of ugh. That’s the incredibly technical term for these bouts. You’ll begin to spot the signs before the aliens and demons hit all of the elevator buttons forcing you to stop at every floor.
Perspective on all of this can be enhanced by revisiting your progress. Where were you a month ago? A year ago? When this all started? You might be too close to see the forest for the trees of how far you’ve come. Create a photo album on your phone that highlights those shifts. Congratulate yourself for your perseverance. It would have been much easier to have given up the fight long ago. Glug, glug, glug. You chose not to be a little, defeated puddle of a human. That’s worth celebrating even if you haven’t made your way all the way through the toil.
There’s no one size fits all approach. Wouldn’t that make life easy! Much of this depends on which group of aliens or demons has been attacking you and your own makeup. The more you can continue to articulate what thoughts are yours and which are being implanted in you, the better. It gives the interference less of a stronghold.
Keep Going!
Big hugs to you as you continue to bounce back from a rough year. I’m so glad that my words can play a part in you finding your footing. These periods can feel so isolating. I speak from experience. As small of a consolation as this may be, know that you wouldn’t be facing attacks if you weren’t having an impact for the positive on this world. They don’t bother people who aren’t significant.
Rest. Regroup. Keep going! In the immortal words of Chumbawamba — I get knocked down, but I get up again. You are never gonna keep me down. You’re in excellent company.
P.S. Sometimes you need to throw a bit of a pity party and acknowledge how profoundly this sucks. Do so and then keep going.
