Breaking the illusion: Why Doreen Virtue Left New Age for Christianity

The reason Doreen Virtue converted is not because of a spiritual awakening but because of precisely this… 

The personal development and self help bubble is a billion dollar enterprise.

If you’re tired of personal or SELF development, you need to read this…

…we have all heard of her, have her tarot cards, read a book or two…she is the OG of angel talk and therapy, tarot cards and bringing New Age to the forefront (and making Hay House REALLY known…and successful)

She had an awakening where she met… Jesus and after reading a passage in the Old Testament interpreted a paragraph into “she is doing Devil’s work”.

What she was experiencing was her spiritual bypassing of the dark up until then, nothing more and nothing less.

We all love marshmallows.

The light and fluffy side of life, the warm sun and ocean breeze in Santorini, a drive through lavender fields.

No one enjoys the hard conversations with clients, team members, family members or spouses...we tend to avoid it all costs.

I have said this multiple times, back in the day, we did not have 50 healers to a village.

The shamans, medicine people were often outcasted, they were different, they were misunderstood, feared, revered.

Today, this profession has become shiny, a trophy, another accolade.

When you’re pre-occupied with the Light, you will bypass the dark. And with dark I mean attachments, semi - and full possession and all the things that go beyond past life clearing, twin flame awakening, chakra balancing, reiki healing, crystal therapy, tarot readings etc

I am happy about the documentaries coming out calling out an industry obsessed with band aids.

During my work, the first thing I have to do is clear all the dark no one else can and has, the harm that has been done. This comes with...a lot of trauma.

This often means you will feel worse before you feel amazing again.

In many cases, clients have done ayahuasca journeys, where soul pieces have been stolen, soul fragmentation has taken place, a lot of "recreational" drug use with unqualified healers.

When a home has had numerous low vibrational spirits for years, the healing is great, but the ramifications of years of influence on my clients mental and emotional bodies is great too. This is a critical part where the real work often begins.

In an online world, without protection and filters - you will take on spirits, low vibrational thoughts, emotions, spirits of mentors, their mentors, clients, their clients, groups etc. You will be susceptible to A LOT. Lethargy, binging shows, anxiety, panic attacks, negative thought loops, depression, pulsing on your third eye, feeling a push and pull on your heart chakra (that is connected to the astral) can all be indications for spirit influence), barely or rarely leaving the house can all be indications of influence.

If you don’t know how to discern between what is yours and what is not - this will affect you.

Not everyone is affected either. Some clients come to me with natural protection. They good. They can go eat those marshmallow 'till the day they die. Not a care in the world.

For most of my clients, this is not the case, there is attachment and influence for years.

I think the problem with the development of the self is that it becomes an addiction, like the rest of the social media bubble. In this space, spirit influence or psychic vampirism is hard to discern.

The search - for more. More money. More clients. Let’s climb higher and higher selling what makes sense and the collective has deemed “right” even though it feels far from home.

Doreen realized that what she deeply believed in and was selling to millions of people was “leading her followers astray” even though she was just leaving out a critical part.

“After my salvation and conversion to Christianity, that’s when spiritual warfare started to occur in my life. It was palpable and deeply troubling.

At first, I went to discernment ministries and read books that told me to cast out demons in Jesus’ name. They said that I had the same authority as the disciples. So I would try these methods, and things would settle down for a little bit. But then it seemed like the spiritual warfare increased.

Now I realize that new Christians should not try to go head to head with demons. Demons can outsmart people. We should instead pray for Jesus to cast out demons.

In studying the Bible, my husband and I focused upon the Ephesians 6:10-18 description of the armor of God, and also Jesus’ temptation in the wilderness. We understand the power of God’s Word, and so started playing audios of the Bible in our house, and the spiritual warfare settled down a lot. God gives us these tools to deal with spiritual warfare.”

There is no such thing as a spiritual warfare.

As incarnated souls, we have power and authority over the unseen world.

“There is no such thing as a spiritual warfare.

As incarnated souls, we have power and authority over the unseen world.”

In no part, are you innocent, a victim or martyr unless you want to be.

But choosing a side never works. In no area of life. We choose love, compassion - again and again.

Her knowledge of the Light would have made her an incredible healer after her awakening to her spiritual bypassing of the dark. I still love her card decks and angel numbers book. The energy is very high vibrational.

But the truth is, people choose sides because we live in a society that has indoctrinated us with a bad vs good mentality.

She is good.

She is bad.

She does XYZ.

Most of the evil I see, lives in the minds of people. Most of the dark is created through jealousy, hate and anger. By all of us.

I have been outcasted, blasted as dark, a past team member and past clients have gone behind my back, warned others about me.

We live in a positive universe that is constantly co-creating WITH us.

This means that the more intentional you become about your thoughts, how you think about others, when you start cleaning up your side of the street without immediately assuming you are a healer - just…healing - the less work I will have.

I don’t mind going out of business - I welcome it.

Until then, I know that 99% of “healers” would NEVER want to do what I do.

Alas, I come back and do my work because quite frankly, no one else can.
