Portals are very attractive to magicians and new age healers, as they provide access to other worlds and dimensions. However, there are serious dangers that few seem to heed.

In Christian literature, The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe by C.S. Lewis is a good example of a portal where the children discover a whole new world at the back of a cupboard. Time is suspended – what can seem a lifetime in the portal is barely a few minutes in this world.

Magicians use portals to enter Universe B, or the dark or other side of the Kabbalistic Tree of Life. A portal is an entrance to a tunnel; the problem is not just what is in the tunnel – by definition we do not know who built the tunnel, how long the tunnel is, the purpose of the tunnel and what is at the end of the tunnel.

Multi-dimensions

The fascination for new age workers and shamans of portals is that they appear to connect star systems with this planet, which allows them to channel information from far off places. Practitioners often talk about multiple dimensions – the more the better! The problem is that accessing these dimensions is illusionary – you cannot see higher dimensions unless you have been raised to look down on them.

Portals and Treasure

Many things can be found in portals – treasure is a good example, if you are lucky, but who put the treasure there? Is the treasure cursed? How do you tell?

Shamans often use them for soul recovery, which does kind of work.

Portals and black magic

Black magicians use them to attack victims, steal energy from victims, and hide vital aspects of their victims. Some portals are used as prisons. In all of these situations, finding and releasing items of black magic is of course laudable.

The problem with portals

The problem is that most people who enter them do not know what they are doing. There is a mis-match between their model of the universe and the reality represented by the portal – therein lies madness.

One of my clients regularly works with portals, and she is very good at it. She travels the country, finding places where the portal connects to the Earth (It is always from another universe or star), and she works with shamans and healers to clear the energies. She has told me many interesting experiences, and she loves her work. Eventually she asked my advice about a particular portal. I was not interested in he details, I had to tell her, because the only sensible thing to do with a portal is to close it! There was a sharp intake of breath. “What about sacred spaces like Glastonbury?”

There are sacred spaces on the Earth, very powerful, but they are not portals. The problem is that people who are either well-meaning, or with sinister intent connect portals to sacred spaces. If you find a portal close it down. People who work with portals become a portal themselves, like a multiple occupancy building. They lose their identity. Any kind of spirit can come and go through them. My client knew the dangers of portals as she got seriously physically injured working on one several years ago. The injuries persist to this day. Having already had such bad experiences she started to listen to me. Once she started to close them down, we were at last able to work on her health problems and remove the entities in her body that were causing her so much pain.
