The Hidden War of Perception: Glamour, Control Tactics, and the Alchemy of Awareness
A Sovereign Path Series Epilogue- Truth Beyond the Veil: Electronic & Energetic Manipulation
If someone had told me a year ago that energy could be used to distort communication or even interfere with how information is received online, I would have smiled politely and changed the subject. The idea seemed too far-fetched—more myth than possibility. I believed in energy healing, intuition, synchronicity—but the notion that anyone could consciously manipulate those same energetic currents to control outcomes? Or somehow apply those skills to electronic communication portals? That felt outside my reality.
Yet reality has a way of stretching you when you walk a spiritual path.
Recently, I found myself in the middle of what can only be described as a form of spiritual warfare—an initiation I never asked for, yet one that reshaped everything I thought I knew about energy, perception, relationship dynamics, and power. It began with subtle ripples: messages that failed to send at crucial moments, online posts that seemed to stall or vanish, psychic readings and tarot pulls that felt strangely “off,” as if the current of truth itself had been rerouted. At first I blamed algorithms, timing, coincidence. But patterns kept repeating, and my intuition kept whispering: this isn’t random.
Through a winding path to clarity, I began to understand that I was witnessing the deliberate use of energetic manipulation—a combination of black magick (the willful bending of energy to override another’s will) and glamour magick (the veiling of perception through illusion). The intent wasn’t curiosity or experimentation; it was control—the need to dominate outcomes, to attempt to hold power over truth itself.
Realizing this was disorienting at first. But beneath the shock, something steadier rose: conviction.
Because when you are sovereign—in mind, body, and spirit—the concept of coercing another person’s energy is not only foreign; it is deeply repellent and unsettling. It violates the natural law of freedom and the sacred right of choice that every soul carries. My work, my heart, and this space I am trying to build, are rooted in the opposite current: liberation, empowerment, and truth.
So I choose to write about it—not to sensationalize, or in any way induce fear or doubt, but to illuminate. To shine a light on a topic that isn’t often discussed but needs to be, as it is all around us.
Because awareness breaks spells. And truth dissolves illusion. And once you see how these patterns of control operate, you can no longer be unconsciously bound by them.
This post is both a reflection and a declaration: that sovereignty is non-negotiable, and that light, once awakened, can never be dimmed.
What I didn’t realize at first is that none of this is new. Humanity has always wrestled with the unseen—different languages for the same truth. Every culture has its stories of energy used for healing and for harm, of perception bent through intention, of power seeking to shape reality. The names change—glamour, binding, evil eye, psychic attack, manipulation—but the pattern remains. When energy is used to control rather than connect, the current turns shadowed. And that shadow is what we must learn to recognize and transform.
The Larger Landscape
Across cultures and centuries, mystics have described unseen forces that shape perception:
• Glamour in Celtic lore—fae enchantments that made a thing appear fairer or invisible.
• Bindings and curses in magick—acts meant to silence or restrict.
• The Evil Eye in Mediterranean tradition—the gaze that drains vitality.
• Mass persuasion in psychology and media—the manipulation of collective attention.
Different language, same principle: energy, emotion, and intention can influence how reality is perceived.
When wielded responsibly, these currents can heal or inspire. When twisted toward control, they become the shadow we call black magick.
Understanding Black Magick
In esoteric study, black magick isn’t about darkness or aesthetic—it’s about coercion.
It is any energetic or ritual attempt to intentionally override another’s free will.
Rather than aligning with cosmic flow, it tries to bend it. And in doing so, it inverts and distorts spiritual law.
Common patterns include:
• Projecting emotion and will to confuse or silence.
• Binding a person’s symbols—name, image, website—to block communication.
• Seeding fear or self-doubt so the person restrains themselves.
Even among practitioners, this path is known to backfire. Manipulating another’s sovereignty traps the manipulator in the same web of distortion they cast.
Energy, Emotion, and the Digital Mirror
Many sensitives notice that energy and technology interact strangely.
From a grounded view, our emotional and electromagnetic states influence how we engage with technology, not its circuits.
When we’re anxious or charged, timing glitches, uploads stall, and focus slips; when we’re calm, everything flows.
Energetically, we say the current is clear; psychologically, we call it coherence.
Either way, our internal state becomes the interface between vibration and machine. It is through this energetic space that manipulation and distortion can be willfully injected.
How Glamour Magick Operates
Glamour is the art of perception management.
Rather than attacking, it re-colors attention. In other words, it alters, or manipulates how you view something.
It can manifest as:
• Others overlooking what’s right in front of them.
• A fog of indifference around something normally magnetic.
• Emotional confusion that blunts discernment.
Glamour doesn’t rewrite truth; it veils it—like mist over a mirror.
Its fuel is consent through doubt. The moment we reclaim certainty - the moment we speak the truth, the illusion collapses.
Recognizing Energetic Interference
These patterns don’t prove external manipulation, but they signal when awareness is needed:
1. Repeated glitches or blocks when expressing truth (ie. you try to send a text or publish a post with multiple errors out of the blue and no internet instability).
2. Sudden exhaustion or throat tightness before communication.
3. People misinterpreting clear words.
4. Feeling unseen or energetically muffled online or in person.
Recognize and use these as a reminder to ground, clear, and reaffirm your intentions before posting and communicating.
De-Glamouring: Returning to Clarity
Remember that TRUTH breaks the illusion - always.
1. Name the distortion. “This is fog, not fact.”
2. Ground into the body. Breath, spine, feet, earth—embodied, grounded presence breaks enchantment.
3. Reassert sovereignty. “Only truth moves through my words.”
4. Clear emotion. Cry, move, write—release static before you speak again.
5. Repost or restate. Action from coherence re-aligns energy.
6. Seek witness. Shared truth multiplies light; transparency helps to dispel illusion.
Truth is frequency. When you broadcast from grounded, embodied truth and coherence, distortion cannot sustain itself.
The Lesson
Scorpio teaches mastery through exposure: nothing healed stays hidden.
By facing manipulation head on - rather than fearing it, you transmute it.
Control loses power when it is met with consciousness.
Truth is not fragile—it is alchemical fire. And it can literally dissolve illusion instantaneously.
There are many ways electronics, communication, and energetic fields can be influenced. Two of the most common—and least discussed—are black magick and glamour magick. Until recently, I was unaware that these tactics existed within the spiritual or digital space. But I can tell you first-hand that they do—and that in the hands of a skilled energetic practitioner, they can be unsettlingly effective.
Why would someone do this? The motive is almost always control. And you don’t seek to control another person unless fear is sitting at the root. Fear of loss. Fear of exposure. Fear born of envy or greed. In this case, perhaps all of the above.
For those who walk a sovereign path—aligned in mind, body, and spirit—the idea of coercing another’s will without consent is deeply disturbing. It violates the very current of liberation, justice, and empowerment that defines spiritual integrity. I cheer for the freedom and ascension of others, and in my small corner of the world I’m choosing to shine light on this subject—to speak truth where illusion thrives in silence.
Because once awareness enters the room, the spell is already breaking. Seeing through distortion strips it of power, and every trial becomes a teacher. Each encounter reveals wisdom about energy, discernment, and the unshakable nature of truth.
So the next time something feels “off”—that post that took far too long to upload, the warning message that arrived strangely late, the potent social post that seemed invisible, the reading that felt misaligned—pause and consider whether energetic interference might be at play. Then bring it into the light.
Distortion and illusion cannot survive exposure to truth. And, as the old saying reminds us, the truth really does set you free.
Wishing you clarity that dissolves distortion—and truth that shatters illusion and binding,
Seraph
