Cho Ku Rei amplified negative energy?

First time protecting my space with Cho Ku Rei and something weird happened when I did.

I verbally said Cho Ku Reí and traced the symbol on all four walls, ceiling and floor of my bedroom (alongside rest of my home) alongside intention to cleanse and protect.
That night I experienced sleep paralysis and a frightening negative presence that I felt I had to fight off plus asked my guides and angels for help. Eventually it went away thankfully.

I smudged the next day and it has been good since, but found it odd that would happen after “Cho Ku Rei-ing” my bedroom.

I know I traced it correctly.. and I rarely get sleep paralysis, so I don’t believe it was a coincidence but rather that somehow something I did (or didn’t do) attracted a negative energy/entity or amplified something existing?

Now I’m afraid to use this symbol for clearing/ protection.. Any insights or advice greatly appreciated!
