I would be careful with manifestations. People on internet claim they work, but at the same time, those who went too far, and wanted to get out of this because they realized it's bad, had some scary things happen to them. It's better to not dab into this in the first place, we should not play with magic because it has consequences. Even the white magic, it can try to look good, but it has the same dark forces that are behind it as other types of magic. The source is same, demonic.
Also be careful about the books, I've heard many (I guess mostly those easily available) books on spells and magic lie on purpose to mislead those who want to use it, probably to get them into trouble and play a joke at them, and ofc to not make the secrets kept for millenniums easy to get to. But even if you got the right book, playing with demons and spells is the worst thing you could do to yourself and your family. Forget a peaceful normal life, if the dark side lets you in peace for some time and gives you wealth, God himself curse people who do magic, as well as three generations of their children. God's mills grinds slow but sure.
The best protection from evil I know is Jesus. Having Him as my lord and savior, and relationship with Him. Why complicate things?
