Pablo's spirit heirarchy
Serphim
Cherubim
Principalities
Thrones
Archangels
Angels
Archons
Sylphs
Dryads
Nymphs
Water Nymphs
Fairies
- I really love Pablo's paintings. I think you may have answered a question I have always had about his paintings.
I deeply resonate with most of Pablo's work, except for the Fairies, Nymphs, mermaids. I have never seen any of this stuff on Ayahuasca, but I have seen angels and archangels. Honestly not sure what Sylphs, Dryads or Archons are, so I will do a bit of research and find out more about it..
I do know that "Fairies" are generally considered to be Elemental beings or non-angelic, non-demonic beings that are inorganic co-inhabitants of this world. They are known to have a strong dislike of most people and they tend to be serious tricksters. The Torah explicitly forbids dealing with these types of beings on any serious basis as they are predatory by nature and tend to have ties to demonic spirit. Elemental beings are generally used by sorcerers with bad intentions in order to accomplish dark side magic.
Personally the elemental beings do not like me. Salvia has shown me this fact.

this is just my opinion so don't take it as concrete truth obviously...i know the experiences are incredibly subjective..but i feel the entities - negative or positive vibed..are there to help you they're not your enemy. if you don't let them in thats when they can get a bit nasty. you shouldn't have to fight them off if you surrender to them in the first place .. the negative entities i've encountered have always been negative for a good reason. they are usually showing me something that i'm doing wrong in my life. if i ignore them i have a very hostile feeling experience, but if i pay my full attention to them, they usually end up showing me something incredibly important about my actions, and end up treating me with positivity if i listen to them and don't fight
Are you certain what you are taking about is Demonic or dark entities? because I have had angelic entities show me the bad in myself for sure, and they get "mad" when you try to ignore them. The only way demonic spirits have ever helped is by pushing me to my limits of endurance by being my perfect enemy and forcing me to become a worthy opponent, like the saying, what does not kill you makes you stronger.
- I personally believe the Demonic forces are the means by which the universe tests us.
Kabbalah recognizes that the Demonic forces are an important "part" of the whole system.
However to say that one should surrender completely to them doesn't seem like it would come to a good end. For example I had an experience where A Possessed person was threatening to physically hurt(kill) themselves and others. Obviously in this situation I could not just let the demon be, so I had to drive it out of the person so they would not hurt themselves...
I have noted that when a demon possesses a person, the person becomes incredibly self destructive/destructive to others on many levels. I believe possession can also be psychologically damaging to the extreme and so personally I don't see much benefit in allowing yourself to become possessed, which is what can happen if you completely surrender to a demonic entity that is trying to take you out, it would be like lying down in front of a charging rhino, IMO.
sounds like you have a world of experience in this stuff that I shouldn't really be diagnosing either.
