STARTING in a religion is easy and accessible, just start praying.

STAYING in a religion is effort and work and learning, do your research.

“There’s no wrong way to practice, if you want to worship, just start praying. “ and “you have to have a basic understanding of the foundation of Hellenic polytheism before you delve in” are two things that can and will coexist.

What I've Done Instead of Shadow Work

This is going to be the last thing I say on the topic of shadow work, because, honestly I'm getting bored of the subject and would rather go back to talking about spirit work, or spells, or any of the many other subjects that I care a thousand times more about. Some folks seem to be hearing “I refuse to do any introspection” when I say "I have never and will never do shadow work". I have done lots of introspection, I've done therapy that follows evidence based practices, I just see no reason do try and guide myself through a method of therapy with little to no scientific evidence. But in case anyone's curious, or wants some tips, here's what I've done instead! Mindfulness exercises: I love mindfulness exercises that train you to think about your thoughts, but not judge them. Consistent mindfulness practice has really helped me become more aware of my internal thought processes, what I get hung up on, what I struggle with, what emotions I’m feeling and what caused them.

The Artist Way & Embrace Your Weird: These are both self help books for creative folks with a heavy emphasis on journaling and self expression. I found both of these helpful in different ways when I felt like I was struggling with creative burnout or felt like I was stuck in the daily grind of my day job.

Journaling: I keep multiple journals! One is a commonplace book that I fill up with on the spot thoughts, quotes, song lyrics, etc. just stuff I want to remember. The other I write in every morning when I first wake up, a continuation of the morning pages from the Artist’s Way, to just unpack and process whatever going on in my head.

Therapy: Actual real therapy with a licensed professional. I specifically see a pain psychologist because most of what we focus on is the impact my chronic pain has on my and developing healthy coping mechanisms for that.

I think what gets a bee in my bonnet the most about the few negative reactions I’ve gotten on this topic is that these folks seem most concerned about the trauma and “inner demons” aspects of shadow work. There’s always something about how dangerous or unhealthy it is for me or even those around me for me to have not delt with my trauma via shadow work. I don’t like that they presume to know my life and mental health history without having ever spoken to me. And I really don’t like the insistance that everyone has the same kind of trauma that needs to be healed in the same way.

also your magic concepts are dope af!

Do I now associate Ramen Noodles with Beltane? Yes. Yes I do.

I will not elaborate on that.

welcome to the witchy world new friend!

hellenism is technically the more appropriative incorrect word for Hellenic Polytheism! it’s the reconstructionist view of the Greek Gods!

I recommend some googling and doing some reading on reconstructionist vs revivalist paganism, as well as basics of modern Hellenic Polytheism. Google, not tumblr, there’s still some good scholarly articles out there!

as far as hexing/cursing, the ethics of “can I hex” is entirely up to the witch themselves. everyone has their own paths and ethics, and while some will try to teach you that hexing is evil or wrong or threefold law or whatever-

YOU WRITE YOUR OWN PATH IN WITCHCRAFT

hope this helps friend! welcome!

I'll make this account pretty later but im not worried about that rn. My main acc is @opposededds

But anyways! Im interested and starting to practice witchcraft/paganism/hellenism (im not sure what it is specifically) and i have basic knowledge of most things. But i have some questions.

Is there an acceptable reason to hex/curse someone (i know the two mean different thinga thats why im asking)

I believe i have a good reason, but i also know it can backfire so thats why I'm asking.
