TW: THE WORD " BLOODSHED" HAS BEEN USED IN CONTEXT OF MY EXPLANATION.
What is a spiritual principality?
The word principality is derived from the Greek word “archon” or " arche" which literally means “prince” ," ruler" or " first power".
In theology, demonology, & deep folk magick, the term “SPIRITUAL PRINCIPALITY” is not just some random ghost, wandering spirit , or a low level demon. A spiritual principality is a massive high ranking, ancient spiritual intelligence that rules over a geographical territory or over a collective group of people. This entity does not possess people, but it does shape the atmosphere, the climate, the laws, and spiritual conditions of that entire region.
Spiritual principalities are very territorial and rule over natural landscapes such as mountains, desserts, forrests, or over massive bodies of water.
The social structures of the world is what spiritual principalities absorb and mirror back into the society, for example, if there’s tons of chaotic people doing heinous crimes onto one another, looting, just doing really vile stuff, the principalities absorbs that, and then reflects those things, turning the notch up by like 200, and then these things will happen so often, that it becomes normalized, crime becomes normalized.
Changing the physical foundations of the regions that spiritual principalities may claim domain over, does not help. There could be excessive gentrification, new stone work, new paved roads, new houses and neighborhoods built, but if the spiritual aspects are not confronted and dealt with with spiritual offerings or cleansings.
To banish a spiritual principality is a whole different ball game. In order to banish a spiritual principality, you are essentially kicking the high ranking , territorial, high ranking , governing intelligence out of its political seat. It’s much harder since the principalty has legal jurisdiction to govern whatever region it may be governing.
In order to banish it, first and foremost, the entire region that’s being governed must stop the bad, heinous crimes, and come together to a full and complete understanding of the goal which is to banish. They must cohesively come together and petition this governing spirit by first apologizing for all the bad and bloodshed that the land has absorbed, the the collective must invoke God to evict the principality from the region it governs. God essentially revokes the legalities of the principalitys domains. Then to keep the region locked and guarded, a spiritual community must be created by a tremendous amount of smaller churches and places of worship whom is all on the same page as one another , and collectively handle guarding the gates from it ever returning.
Of course, a spiritual principality CAN return. If the community becomes too set in the peaceful life they’ve created and the guarding of that spiritual entity starts to slip, it can definitely come back, and 7 times stronger. It can also come back if the community turns back into what it used to be and stops holding each other accountable. If the new generations left to care for or guard this, it can come back. Or if the political gates unleash systemic chaos , this can open the gateway for the spiritual principality to return back to its original domain.
Do you think your neck of the woods may have a spiritual principality governing the region? Why or why not?
