03 - Quelling Demons with Zhong Kui

In today’s lesson on Welcome to Magic School, I’m going to share with you a recent experience I had, part one of which was a definitely demonic nightmare, and part two of which was a shamanic journey in which I revisited the scene of the nightmare and literally slayed the demons that came to haunt me.

I’ll be sharing about what that experience was like, how I knew the nightmare was demonic, how I prepared for my journey in the material realm, and what happened in the spiritual realm once I entered the trance state. That includes what I did to prepare myself in the spiritual realm, how Zhong Kui came to me as a helping spirit, how I determine the true nature of spiritual entities, destroy demonic entities, and what lessons I brought back for life in the material realm.

In Today’s Lesson:

  1. Physical steps you can take in the material realm to prepare for a demon-slaying mission in the spiritual realm via shamanic journey;

  2. Actions you can take in the spiritual realm to protect your energy and fight spiritual foes;

  3. What facing demons in the spiritual realm can teach us about living our best life in the material realm.

  4. Plant Magic Minute: White Angelica for Energetic & Spiritual Protection

Today’s Homework:

  1. Subscribe, rate, & review (pretty please)! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

    • Welcome to Magic School can currently be reviewed on Apple Podcasts, Stitcher, Podchaser, and Audible.

  2. Embark upon a demon-slaying quest!

    • Go on a shamanic journey. (See resources above for suggested audio tracks.)

    • On your journey, ask your guide or guides if you have any demons plaguing you. If not, congratulations!

    • Unless you’ve just had the most amazing energetic reset of your life, you probably have at least one. Ask your guides to prepare you—if they have any tools or advice to give you for fighting your demon(s). If they do, accept with gratitute; if not, you can use anything you learned in this lesson.

    • Ask your guides to take you to your demons and support you in defeating them. You can use the techniques you learned in this episode, or if your guides or your intuition lead you to do something different, that’s cool too.

    • Don’t forget to have the demons reveal their true forms and get their names! This can reveal a TON of useful information. You can ask your guide/guides for the name(s) of the demon(s), they should be able to tell you.

  3. Then record your experience and tell me how it goes!

    • You don’t have to tell me everything, I understand some of this may be private, but I would LOVE to hear anything you’re willing to share with me about your experience. Let me know if you would prefer to remain anonymous, bc I would LOVE to share about your experience and any questions you may have on next week’s homework review.

    • If you’re cool with having your experience featured on the podcast, I would LOVE IT if you would send it to me as voice messages on Instagram (@welcometomagicschool)! Then, you might even get to hear your very own voice on next week’s lesson.
