How to Know If You Have Negative Spirits Around You and How to Remove Them

Not everyone wants to have negative spirits around them. A good person can be bothered by negative spirits. Even though a spirit can’t cause you physical harm, you need to know that it can cause you to have subconscious thoughts that aren’t even real. They can also make you do things that you wouldn’t normally do, which makes you feel upset or lost.

They can take the energy around you and add more negative energy to it, and it makes it hard for you to let this energy go. Even if there are good spirits around you, negative spirits can come around to harass you or to stress you. Remember, demons and bad spirits aren’t your friends.

Spirits can be both human and non-human. They can be people, animals, the universe, nature, and different elements. There are spirits that are angels, demons, and even ghosts. Angels weren’t always humans, and they can only use higher power.

It’s important that you know negative spirits and what you can do if they come around you. Here are some things that you should do if you have negative spirits around you.

Why Negative Spirits Are Drawn to Us

There are many reasons why a negative spirit might latch on or stir up trouble, and it doesn’t always have to do with something you did wrong. In fact, a lot of good, kind people experience interference from lower vibrational beings. If you’ve ever wondered why these spirits bother you, it might be one or more of the following reasons.

Your Spirit May Be Struggling

This can sound harsh at first, but it’s not meant to make you feel ashamed. A person can have a good heart and still be carrying a spirit that’s out of balance or even a spirit that has turned negative over time. The truth is, our spiritual makeup shifts as we grow, and sometimes, we hold onto energy that no longer matches who we are becoming. A

Most people will have a time in their lives when their spirit feels heavy. This doesn’t make you a bad person. It simply means there may be an opening for spiritual renewal. You always have the right to ask for your spirit to be healed or replaced with one that’s more aligned with your higher path. It’s never too late.

They’re Threatened by Your Kindness

Negative spirits love to be around chaos, like jealousy or someone who has unforgiveness. If they come across someone who is happy and has light, someone who is giving and kind, someone compassionate and loving, they will feel threatened by this person. Being happy makes them angry, and they want to stop you from having peace.

This isn’t something that is personal; they just don’t know how to handle you being kind and loving. They don’t want to think of the personality that they don’t have. It doesn’t mean you can’t stop them; being kind is one of the best ways that you can protect yourself. They can come to try and stop you, but they can’t get through your light unless you give them permission to.

Your Environment Might Be Attracting Them

Sometimes it’s not about who you are but where you are or who you’re around. When you spend time in places that are filled with drama, hostility, or even just a lot of chaotic energy, you’re more likely to draw in spirits that resonate with that low frequency. Spirits tend to gather where their energy matches.

So, if you’re hanging around people who constantly stir the pot or engage in reckless behavior, that energy builds up and becomes a beacon for the negative. This doesn’t mean you have to isolate yourself. It just means it might be time to reflect on the energy you’re surrounded by.

You’ve Been Open About Your Vulnerabilities

Being open is a beautiful thing until it becomes a way in for something that doesn’t have your best interest at heart. When you constantly share your fears, struggles, or sensitive emotions in public or unstable settings, you may unintentionally invite in energies that want to use that against you.

Spirits, like people, can sense when someone’s guard is down. That doesn’t mean you should hide who you are, but it does mean being mindful of where and with whom you share certain things. It’s also helpful to develop a spiritual boundary system, so that even when you’re emotionally raw, you’re still protected.

Unintentionally Inviting Them In

Some people don’t realize that the way they interact with spiritual energy can actually open doors they didn’t mean to open. If someone is dabbling in Ouija boards without proper knowledge, cursing or taunting spirits, exploring haunted places just to provoke energy, or even glamorizing darkness for attention, then those actions can create space for negative spirits to enter. This kind of behavior is sometimes framed as “just curious” or “for fun,” but it can lead to energetic consequences.

The spirit world doesn’t operate like a game, and when you engage with the spiritual world in disrespectful or reckless ways, you send out a signal that you’re open to anything, even things you don’t want.

Getting Rid of Negative Spirits

Here are some ways to get rid of negative spirits:

Getting Rid of Your Own Negative Spirits

One way that you can get rid of negativity is to get rid of your bad spirit. Ask your spirit guides to help you and to help you reach your higher power. Ask the spirit to assist you and say something like, “Please help me, Archangel Michael. I feel that my spirit might not be up to good and I ask you to give me kindness in my heart and replace my sins with a new spirit. Please do this so that I bring kindness and love and not harm.

If you don’t believe in angels, you can just say something like, “I believe my spirit is up to no good, please remove this negativity and replace it with goodness and kindness, and don’t let me harm anything in the universe. Do this while you meditate. If you ask the spirits to help you, they will. They will love that you asked them, and they will help you.

Leave in the Spiritual Sense

If you feel that spirits are harassing you, try being invisible. This can make you invisible to negative spirits but also to your angels, guides, and good spirits. You will be seen by humans still.

Take time to meditate and relax your body. Ask the guides to help you. Think about your body in the position that you’re sitting and imagine that you are at home. Think of everyone in your home and around you, including your city. Imagine if everything around you disappeared, and the bad spirit was there looking for you.

Imagine that you look around and the negative spirit is looking at you. Then imagine that you are safe and your spirit guides and your family are in space, and there is positive energy all around you.

Find Different Friends

Sometimes the negativity that you get is because of the bad people around you. If you have friends who are always bringing you down or being negative, find new friends. People who are always angry and negative can make you feel bad and can bring negative spirits around you.

Talk to a counselor and stay away from people who make you feel bad about yourself or people whom you feel that you have to walk on eggshells in front of. Find people who are like-minded with you.

Take Care of Your Health

Try to make sure that you are taking care of your health. Go to the doctor, eat healthily, work out, and make sure that you are doing your best to be strong. Don’t be stressed and get rid of negative energy by being healthy and active.

Don’t Provoke the Spirits

Make sure that you aren’t provoking the negative spirits. Don’t complain or talk about them. Don’t make fun of them and don’t try to tease them or even summon them. They take what you do seriously, and they can come to you and stay until someone comes and removes them and so you don’t want to invite them in.

Don’t use Ouija boards or EVP apps to communicate or challenge them. Leave this up to your spiritual guides and angels.

Getting Rid of Negative Spirits on Your Own

It can be hard to get rid of negative spirits on your own, but you can do this. Don’t worry about hurting good spirits because your angels and your guides won’t be harmed. Negative spirits aren’t on the same vibrational frequency as your angels are, and so what you do to get rid of them won’t hurt your good spirits.

Final Thoughts

Meditate and relax, and make sure that you are talking to your spiritual guides to help you. Ask Michael and other angels to give you the power to get rid of negative spirits. Let them help you.

Imagine yourself with bad spirits around you, and then imagine that you are removing them one at a time. Imagine them dying and being taken to the underworld and replaced with spirits that are good and loving. Thank your guides for helping you to be protected and safe.
