The event
Time: During the day
Date: Early 1990s
Place: My flat on the Hernalser Gürtel 16/20, Vienna
I was in my mid-30s. I was at home. I became aware of a negative energy or entity coming down to settle in a part of my mind. It descended like a bird and came to rest on a place that was like a nest. It had found an appropriate nesting place in my spiritual brain to settle on.
I was aware of its arrival and of its nature. I thought, “Oh, I don’t like the feel of this thing.” I didn’t know what to do about it. I was stuck with it.
The takeaway
We read that the Holy Spirit descends like a dove. Well, I have experienced that a negative energy or entity can descend likewise, like a bird.
It’s essential to get rid of this kind of energy.
Background
I had been thinking negatively about a colleague who wasn’t astute. I had known her for years and it had become a habit for me to think negatively about her. And then this “bird” descended, this negative energy … because it had found the appropriate nesting place in me. Horrors!
Thoughts and theories

Afterword
Many years later, assuming that this negative thing was still with me, I repeatedly used a positive affirmation in an attempt to get rid of it. Again and again I repeated the affirmation, over many weeks.
The affirmation didn’t refer to any person, but rather to a negative mind-set that needed correcting. The affirmation made a very positive change to me.
I think the negative energy is long gone. Although I was aware of its arrival, I wasn’t aware of its (assumed) departure. I also think that it was around this time that I saw, for the first time, the end of the rainbow, meaning I got that pot of gold, that spiritual gain. (I didn’t record the date of that, so I can’t be sure of the timing.)
