❦Pure Consciousness/The Void State; and why it’s the easiest thing ever
1. Pure Consciousness
Pure consciousness, the void state, is the infinite stillness that resides within you, beyond the noise of your mind, beyond the chatter of your daily life. It is not something you need to search for or fight to attain it is your natural state, always present and waiting for you to remember. It is the silent observer, the deep, unshakable awareness that witnesses all things but is untouched by them. It is the vast sky, clear and endless, while the clouds of thoughts, emotions, and experiences simply float by. This state is not a destination; it’s the journey of remembering who you are. It is the absence of effort, the shedding of layers, the return to your truest self. The void is where time fades and all that remains is the stillness, the pure essence of being. So don’t stress it cuz it’s simple.
2. The Illusion of Effort
We live in a world that glorifies effort. We are taught that to achieve, to grow, to be worthy, we must do. But pure consciousness is the art of undoing. It is not a thing to achieve or a task to complete; it is the simple recognition that you have been whole all along. You don’t need to labor over it, or chase after it. In fact, the more you strive, the further you drift from it. The mind tells you that peace requires work, but the truth is, peace is already here beneath the surface of your thoughts, in the depths of your being. When you stop struggling, when you stop clinging to the fleeting waves of your mental landscape, you find that the ocean of pure consciousness has always been still and waiting for you. It was never out of reach. It has always been the space you breathe, the air you exist within.
3. Letting Thoughts Flow Like Rivers
In pure consciousness, you are not bound by your thoughts, nor are you defined by them. Thoughts arise, like waves in the ocean, but you are not the wave you are the boundless water. Emotions may stir like winds, but you are the sky. The more you detach from the stories your mind tells you, the more you experience the freedom that lies in simply observing. In the void, you learn to let go. Not by force, but by grace. There is no need to grab hold of the passing thoughts, the fleeting emotions. You simply let them come, let them go. In that letting go, you are free. Thoughts, like clouds, can float across the sky of your mind, but they do not change the sky itself. You are the sky vast, open, untouched by the weather.
4. The Lightness of Being
There is nothing you need to do in pure consciousness. There is no striving, no trying. In fact, the more you stop trying, the more you awaken to the truth of who you are. It is the stillness that exists before any thought arises, the space between breaths. It is the effortless awareness of simply being. This is where the beauty lies when you stop chasing the future, when you stop worrying about the past, when you simply are everything becomes light. There is no pressure. No need to change, to improve, to become. You are enough. In pure consciousness, you rest in the present moment, and that moment is all you need. The present is where your power lies cuz basically you are already home.
5. Accepting
Pure consciousness is also the art of surrender. It is not passive resignation, but an active acceptance of what is. Accept you are void. In the void state, you no longer fight against the current. You no longer struggle to shape reality into something that fits your desires or expectations. You surrender to what is, knowing that in this surrender, there is no loss only liberation. You stop fighting the flow of life and instead, you become one with it. You cease resisting, and in that moment of surrender, you discover an unshakeable peace. Life, in all its messy beauty, becomes a dance, and you are both the dancer and the dance. You are not separate from what happens; you are the witness, the experiencer, and the experience itself.
6. The Simplicity
The void state is where simplicity resides. It is not a place of complication, not a space filled with endless quests for meaning or purpose. It is the recognition that all of that is unnecessary. You are here, now. You are enough. In the void, the mind can no longer hold you captive with its endless distractions. In the stillness, you are free to simply be. You no longer need to grasp at external achievements or validation. You realize that all of life’s complexities are just ripples on the surface. Beneath, there is peace. Beneath, there is truth. The void is a place where all the questions fall away, where there are no answers needed, because you realize that you are the answer. You are the stillness. You are the peace. You are the awareness behind it all.
7. Pure Consciousness Is Who You Are
The deepest truth of pure consciousness is that it is you. It is the essence of who you are, the eternal self that has always existed, and will always exist. You are not separate from the void. You are the void. You are not your thoughts, your body, or your experiences—you are the awareness that holds them all. When you realize this, you stop searching for fulfillment, for meaning, for happiness outside yourself. You recognize that you are already whole. There is no need to earn it, no need to prove it. You are consciousness itself—unlimited, boundless, free. This recognition is not a distant goal; it is the simplest, most natural state you can return to at any moment.
8. Fear
The fear that “what if my family doesn’t come with me” when you shift to your desired life after the fear that “will my family die?? 🙁🙁” nooooo it’s all within you nobodies gonna die nobodies gonna disappear so calm downnn 🩷
9. Conclusion: The Easiest Thing to Do
Pure consciousness, the void state, is not something you need to strive for or work toward. It is not a destination, but a natural unfolding—a delicate blossoming that happens when you let go. Like petals slowly unfurling in the morning sun, pure consciousness reveals itself with ease, effortlessly and naturally. There is no force, no strain in its opening—just the soft, graceful unfolding of the truth of who you are. Each layer of thought, each wave of emotion, is like a petal gently peeling away, revealing the stillness beneath. At the center of all things lies the vast space of pure awareness, untouched by time or experience. You don’t need to chase it, grasp it, or push yourself to find it. It’s always been there, like the quiet center of a flower, waiting for you to notice. The petals of your thoughts, emotions, and external distractions may flutter and fall, but at the heart of it all lies the stillness of pure consciousness—the essence that has always been present, untouched by time. In the rush of life, we often forget that the beauty of a flower is not in its striving to bloom, but in the natural grace with which it does. Pure consciousness is just like that—it does not require effort or pushing; it simply is. It unfolds like a flower opening to the sun, in its own perfect time, with no urgency. When you let go of the need to force, to control, or to chase, you return to the effortless, silent blooming of your own awareness. In this space, you simply be. It’s not about doing, but about resting in the delicate simplicity of being. Each moment is a petal unfolding, revealing the truth that you are already whole, already one with the vastness of existence. No effort is needed, only the quiet trust in the process, in the natural unfolding of your own awareness. Like a flower in bloom, pure consciousness is not something to achieve—it’s the effortless, gentle return to the center of your being. It’s not about reaching for something outside of you. It is about peeling back the layers, one by one, until you reveal the truth that has always been inside. With each soft petal that unfurls, you get closer to the realization that you are the beauty, the stillness, the quiet force of nature itself. You are the flower, and the petals are just the expression of your being. Each layer you shed takes you deeper into the silence, the purity, the vastness of who you are. You do not have to force it, for just like the bloom, your awareness unfolds when you allow it to. And in that gentle, effortless unfolding, you return home to yourself, to the truth that you have always been pure consciousness, already whole, already complete. There is nothing to do. You are pure consciousness. You are void. You are god. Read that over and over until you understand.
how people who are victims of misinformation of the void and consciousness look at me when I tell them you can “enter” the void or “become” the pure consciousness simply by stuff like daydreaming, having inner monologue, or just really anything that puts your mind off 3D and it doesn’t have to be 4 hours of subliminals or 6283 different methods
simplified version of Neville's sayings*ੈ✩‧₊˚*
Cuz he be talking in riddles 😭 but I got you!👽
1. "Man’s chief delusion is his conviction that there are causes other than his own state of consciousness." → Everything happening in your life comes from your thoughts and beliefs. Nothing outside of you is the real cause—only your mind is.
2. "The drama of life is a psychological one and the whole of it is written and produced by your assumptions." → Life isn’t random. Everything you experience is the result of what you assume to be true for you.
3. “Feeling is the secret.” → Don’t just think it—feel it deeply.
4. “You are already what you want to be.” → Stop chasing and start being that person now.
5. “Change your conception of yourself and you will automatically change the world in which you live.” → Think differently about yourself, and your life will shift to match.
Go get itttt ! <3 + 222

Does inducing pure consciousness (or the void) seem complicated? I promise it is EASIER than you think! You just need to understand how your body and mind are working at that moment.
BODY SLEEPS, MIND STAYS AWAKE
The key to everything is this: when the body falls asleep and the mind stays awake, you are in pure consciousness.
Why? Because without an active body, the ego loses power. No limiting thoughts, no fixed identity, just YOU as pure awareness.
HOW TO DO THIS
Do this after you wake up at night (your body is already super relaxed and ready to go back to sleep!)
Lie down and relax, without moving.
Let your body fall asleep, but keep your mind awake. Count in your head or focus on an imaginary point in space. This prevents your mind from following your body into sleep!
If you feel tingling, heaviness, or a feeling of “disconnection” from your body, you’re there!
At this point, simply affirm, “I am pure consciousness” or “I am in the void.”
Boom. Your body is asleep, you are pure consciousness.
You will find yourself in an immense calm and darkness, with no body perception. No weight, no limiting thoughts. Just YOU.
You are in the void. You are consciousness itself.
And from here you can manifest anything instantly!
COMMON MISTAKES AND HOW TO AVOID THEM
✗ Waiting too carefully for the body to fall asleep (the paradox is that the more you wait, the less it happens! It's a bit like when you wait for a message on your cell phone, the more you check the less it arrives, right? haha) ✓ Ignore the body and focus on something neutral (like counting, singing, etc.).
✗Thinking that it's difficult or that it takes a long time. ✓IT'S EASY! The body falls asleep every night, just don't interfere!
✗Being afraid of sleep paralysis. ✓It's not a problem, IT'S YOUR ALLY! If you feel "blocked", it means you did everything right!
♡You don't have to "do" something, you just have to let it happen.The body sleeps every night. You just have to stay present with your mind awake.
That's why it's FAST and EASY.♡
Manifest what you want now bitch 🤭
how to script your dream life and use it with any method!
hello friends! today i want to share with you how i personally script my dream life, and how this script is both my void list, states list, and precursor to almost every manifestation method i've ever used. i love scripting because it is not only a method in and of itself but it is also a simple list of everything you desire that you can now manifest using any method you love!
check back later for a link to my notion template for scripting. in the meantime, here are the steps to creating your perfect script from scratch with examples! all you need is a place to write it down.
steps to scripting:
step one: time to brain dump! at the top of your page, write out every desire that comes to your head in list format. don't overthink it and don't worry if they sound silly or unrealistic; remember, absolutely anything is possible! you can write out a few desires to start or go hardcore and write out hundreds, whatever you feel inspired by. you can always come back to this step later.
step two: now its time to get organized! look at the desires you've written and figure out what subcategories they fall under. for example, "my eyes are light blue and gorgeous" could fall under the category of "appearance," and "i have $100,000 in my bank account" could fall under the category of "wealth and items." feel free to use any category name that makes sense to you.
step three: now that you have a couple of categories written out and understand the structure of the script, your mind might start to have even more ideas. "ooh, now that i see revision is a category, i guess there are a couple more things i'd like to revise..." or "why stop at one SP when i could have everyone chasing after me?" for step three, we go a little deeper into these categories and add more details of what our dream life will look like. you can also add new categories that pop into your head - in the example below, i've added "the world and society" and "skills and abilities."
note: the reason why i broke this up into multiple steps instead of "write out all your desires at once" is because our brains can be mean to us and make us procrastinate if something isn't done "perfectly," so that's why adding an extra step is important to bypass the perfectionism.
optional steps:
because scripting is such a creative and expansive process, we might think of ideas we'd like to manifest in the future but not right now/not instantly. i like to organize my script further by adding another category: "future manifestations." these are ideas that i would love to manifest at some point later on but not necessarily while my dream life is manifesting right now.
another idea is separating categories even further into "instant manifestations" (manifestations that happen right now without things needing to unfold) or "perfect timing manifestations" (manifestations that slowly unfold naturally and linearly), if you want to get specific! however, these steps are optional and just fun details for specificity and i can make a post on this later.
how you can use your script with any method:
scripting has been used as a successful manifesting and shifting method on its own forever because it specifically addresses one of the most important steps in the manifesting process right away - deciding what you want! by writing out what you want in your dream life, you can now decide that your script will manifest on its own or you can use any method under the sun to fulfill yourself within:
the void state: if you enter the void state to manifest, you could affirm "i have everything in my dream life script"
affirming: you can affirm "everything in my dream life script has come true"
visualization: now that you have all of your desires written out, you can create an imaginative scene where all of your desires from your script are fulfilled (or you can imagine looking at your script and smiling because everything came true)
subliminals: you can create a very simple subliminal where all of your desires are included, or even a sub where the only affirmation is "i have everything in my dream life script"
the possibilities with scripting are absolutely endless. i hope that this guide has given you the inspiration and direction to write your own wonderful and unique script. now, go and get your dream life! 💗
should i try LD'ing to shift? LD'ing is cool and all but tbh all i really want is to just shift. but since 2020 i havent even minishifted so should i try LD'ing? my worry is that even if i do LD what if i still dont shift. since 2020 ive had a few LDs where i tried shifting but when i went into the portal the sensations got crazy and it woke me up. but thats the most "progress" ive had. should i pursue this route or is that adding an extra step/more effort needed to try to induce LDs :(
Babe... I mean this in the nicest way possible, but I don't think your mindset toward shifting is very healthy right now.
You shouldn't try to lucid dream if you're only doing it out of desperation. If you don't like ludid dreaming or you don't really want to do it, then you shouldn't. Of course, if you are genuinely interested in it, then go ahead! But really, whatever method you use to shift, should be done because you genuinely want to do it. If you don't want to lucid dream, then don't.
Take some time to think about it.
If you know that you genuinely want to continue lucid dreaming and shifting through lucid dreams, then I would suggest these things:
Make sure you're calm and collected before you attempt the shift. Do some deep breathing, go to your happy place, meditate, do whatever you have to do to chill out!
You can definitely try portals again, but if they're just not working for you, you don't have to force it. Instead, you can try visualizing your DR, affirming that you're shifting/you've shifted, going through a door, or making your portal on the ground and falling through it. You can also try "falling asleep" in your lucid dream and affirming that you'll wake up in your DR! Basically, go with the flow and don't be afraid to experiment!
Practice going to "different" lucid dreams with portals. So instead of immediately shifting to your DR, cycle through different dreams and then shift.
Spend some time in your lucid dream first! I know it can be very tempting to immediately shift, but some people have had more success when they waited a little beforehand. Try doing something you like in your dream first for 30 minutes or so (or however long you like), and then shift.
On the other hand, if you've found that you don't want to lucid dream, I really suggest taking the time to figure out how you do like to shift. And I'm not necessarily talking about "successful" shifts here, I just mean which methods have you tried that you actually enjoyed. Some people like the raven method, some like the estelle method, some like sats, while others like simple intention. Figure out what you like to do and focus on that!! Don't try to force yourself to try out all these different kinds of methods out of desperation. Remember that the methods don't matter, you do.
Polytheism: the belief in and worship of more than one/multiple gods or deities. Ancient Egyptian/Kemetic and Greek religions were polytheistic. Some modern day examples are certain forms of Hinduism and various neopagan revival movements.
Monotheism: relatively new compared to polytheism, this is the belief and worship in a single god or deity. Judaism, Christianity, and Islam are the best examples of monotheistic religions, but even in some cases (mainly Christianity), this concept can get tricky. This will be discussed shortly.
Atheism: Many atheists further emphasize that atheism itself is not “a religion,” but quite the opposite, being instead the simple lack or absence of any “religion” whatsoever. On the other hand, some religions such as Buddhism and Jainism can be characterized as “atheistic” in nature, insofar as they do not recognize the existence of god(s).[x] But even then, this will vary on geography; for example, there are gods in Tibetan Buddhism, albeit they are seen as a level below a Buddha. In addition, atheism historically did not always mean the absence of belief in a god/gods. It could also mean an individual did not believe in the “mainstream” practices at the time; an example would be early Christians in the Roman Empire. The Romans generally liked to incorporate the deities of conquered lands to their practices, and would allow conquered peoples to continue practicing their own religions. However, since the Christians denied all other gods including the Roman ones, they were declared atheists and faced rebuttal from their neighbors (this is much more detailed and complicated scenario, but for another post).
Agnosticism: This term comes from the Greek gnosis (meaning “knowledge”), but modified with that same sort of negating “a-“ prefix that turns theism (the belief in God or gods) into atheism (the lack of belief in God or gods). So, agnosticism (literally “a-gnosticism,” denoting a lack or absence of gnosis or knowledge) simply refers to being “without knowledge,” one way or the other, regarding God (or gods). Strictly speaking, agnosticism technically refers to the view that definite knowledge about God is impossible or unavailable; colloquially, however, agnosticism is often used more loosely by many people to refer to their persistent personal uncertainty, one way or the other, about the existence of God. Many agnostics so identify themselves simply as a shorthand means of indicating their own noncommittal indecision — a kind of “the jury is still out” position, somewhere midway between theism and atheism, neither fully believing nor fully disbelieving but suspending judgment and remaining open to either possibility. [x]
Animism: Polytheism frequently occurs in indigenous religions blended almost seamlessly with animism (from the Latin anima, meaning “life,” “life force,” “soul,” “spirit”), a view which holds that the world is filled not only with gods per se but also with a vast multitude of spirits of all sorts. Life or “spirit” is ubiquitous, according to animism, with even seemingly “inanimate” objects — rocks, mountains, rivers, wind — often regarded as “alive” insofar as they are each believed to be “ensouled,” each such natural feature possessing a separate and distinct spirit of its own. Add to this mix of gods and nature spirits the lingering (and often meddling, or otherwise influential) spirits of deceased ancestors, and the spiritual universe of polytheistic and animistic cultures begins to look like a pretty crowded place! [x]
Deism: This term comes from the Latin deus, which (like the Greek theos) simply means “god.” (Such terms as “deity,” “divinity,” and “divine” are also etymologically related to deus.) Accordingly, deism literally translates as “god-ism” (just as theism does, too). One might therefore be forgiven for assuming that deism and theism are synonymous — two alternative terms for the exact same thing. However, such an assumption would be incorrect. In practice, Deism as a distinctive term has come to refer quite specifically to a particular religious perspective (one quite distinct from the monotheism of traditional Christianity) that came to prominence during the 17th and 18th centuries, in the wake of the European Enlightenment. Deism holds that God initially created the universe, but subsequently left it to its own devices, allowing it to run unencumbered by further divine adjustment, guidance, or meddling. Deists therefore do not believe that God ever interferes with natural law, or intervenes in human history; hence Deism affirms no miracles, no prophecies, and no divine revelations. [x]
Henotheism: Another relatively new term for an ancient p.o.v., henotheism refers to the worship of one god while simultaneously acknowledging other gods. In other words, henotheists need not deny the existence of multiple gods, all of whom may be legitimately worthy of worship, but they choose to devote themselves only to one specific god (out of all the available gods). Vaishnava Hindus, for example, may primarily worship Vishnu or any of His incarnations, but still acknowledge other gods such as Shiva.
Omnism: Omnism is the recognition and respect of all religions; those who hold this belief are called omnists (or Omnists). In recent years, the term has been emerging anew, due to the interest of modern day self-described omnists who have rediscovered and begun to redefine the term. It can be thought of as syncretism taken to its logical extreme. However, it can also be seen as a way to accept the existence of various religions without believing in all that they profess to teach. Many omnists say that all religions contain truths, but that no one religion offers all that is truth. [x]
Pantheism: this term refers to the belief that God is in everything and everything is in God. The pantheist view maintains that there is no personal God as such, and that “God” and creation are one and the same. Whereas traditional monotheistic religions such as Judaism, Christianity, and Islam typically maintain that God alone is divine, pantheism asserts that everything is divine, because everything is God. Like everything else, pantheism comes in various forms; some versions of pantheism amount to little more than reducing God to a synonym for nature or the cosmos, which is considered sacred in and of itself. [x]
Panentheism: Whereas straight pantheism insists that God and the universe are identical, panentheism allows that God “contains” the universe within him/her/itself, while also extending beyond the universe (so that God is not limited to, or exclusively contained within, the cosmos).
Trinitarianism: This term mainly applies to the Christian churches who maintain that God is a Trinity (Father, Son, and Holy Spirit). As mentioned in the beginning of this post, such a view has caused confusion and controversy for believers and non-believers alike over the past millenia. It is understandably confusing to claim that a religion is monotheistic while also saying that God is Three distinct Persons. However, Trinitarian theology is a topic for another post. However, triune natures of deities are not limited to just Christianity. Check this post out for more information.
Unitarianism: On the other hand, this term is often used by Christian churches who affirm that God is not of a tri-fold nature. It can also refer to other religious views that hold strict monotheistic views of God, such as Islam, which claims that God can neither beget nor be begotten (i.e., Jesus being the son of God).
A deity is a mystical presence, like a god, that is worshipped by individuals who believe it commands or wields influence over a characteristic of existence. In the witch world, many worship or work with deities or spirits. However, you never need to do this to be a valid witch, and always hold magic within yourself as well.
Worshipping is to believe, honor, and venerate a spirit or deity. This means not only believing in their existence, but admiring their power and displaying gratitude and loyalty towards them.
Working with an entity is different than worshipping, although many consider it important to start worship before working with any spirit or deity. (That doesn’t mean stop when you start working with them though!) This is when an entity comes through with energy, messages, and is willing to guide you.
Aspects are a phrase utilized across various beliefs and in theology to illustrate a particular manifestation or perception of a deity or spirit. Subject on the religion, these may possibly be separate, overlapping, or methods of perceiving or conceptualizing the deity in a distinct context.
A passionate or fervent believer in a particular religion, deity, or spirit. To explain further, an individual who is completely devoted and given almost exclusively to conviction, and one who is spiritually committed to conscientious obligations, principles, and ceremonies.
An act of prayer, offering, or ritual, generally cast in private. This can range from playing music, to writing poetry for them. Devotions are often considered to occur solely in the mornings in some cultures.
In Hellenic and European primitive times, an epithet was a informative term to be associated with or occurring in place of the name of a deity or spirit. These epithets are repeated continuously in their ancient literary works, and this phrase is used to specify the characteristics of a deity or spirit.
A distinct Goddess you feel most linked and relaxed working in alongside, and can often be demonstrated within themselves. The amount of Matrons an individual may have is a subject to preference.
An offering is to put forward something to a deity is to show and recognize allegiance, appreciation, and passion. Offerings are usually given in devotions, in veneration of, and general rituals.
A human being that an entity is conducted to answer when consulted, they convey messages through this deity with the ability of communication of them. Oracles are considered to be dead to many, although there are reconstructionists today.
A distinct Goddess or God you feel most connected and comfortable working in conjunction with, and is often displayed within their temperament. The number of patrons a human can have is a matter of choice, although most individuals choose one as their principal spirit.
A priest is a human certified to execute the blessed traditions of a religion, deity, or spirit. A Priest is regarded as an authority, and often requires an initiation. This is also sometimes referred to as a High Priest.
A priestess is a woman certified to execute the blessed traditions of a religion, deity, or spirit. A Priestess is regarded as an authority, and often requires an initiation. This is also sometimes referred to as a High Priestess.
To venerate is to worship, respect, and admire another. Metaphysically, veneration is often used as a term of worship to a spirit or deity. Unquestionable and unconditional belief can be associated with this term.
The Gods are everywhere, you just have to look. They’re not trapped stagnant in the myths and stories, nor in the stale histories of cultures long past. Omnipresent in their own ways, the Gods can connect with anyone at any time.
Athena can be found walking the aisles of a Harvard library, in the study room with a first generation college student, or in between the cardboard pages of a child’s first board book. Knowledge isn’t limited to the elite or the privileged, and neither is Athena.
Apollo can be found in the galleries of prestigious art museums, in the bedroom of an aspiring anime artist, or in the imagination of a child scribbling with crayons. He is on the stage of a sold out stadium as well as in the back row of the cheapest seats. Art and creativity isn’t limited to those with influence or connections, and neither is Apollo.
Hephaestus can be found in the offices of any corporate building, under the machinery of a blue collar factory, or in the joy of a teenager as they receive their first paycheck. He is found in the Paralympics, boosting the athletes onward, and he is also sitting with the hospital and rehab rooms of those recently disabled. Hard work is not limited to anyone’s status or abilities, and neither is Hephaestus.
Aphrodite can be found on the covers of fashion magazines, in the dreams of an hopeful makeup artist, and in the playfulness of a child playing with their mother’s lipstick. Aphrodite can be in the appeal of sexy fishnets or the allure of a well tailored suit. Beauty and love are not limited to one’s gender or skills, and neither is Aphrodite.
Hermes can be found flying alongside the highest reaching airplanes, the fastest driving cars, and on a seat on public transit in rush hour. He is the luck that saves the lives of a vehicular accident, and the thrill in that first payment on a used car. Luck and speed are not limited to how far or how fancy your transportation can go, and neither is Hermes.
Zeus can be found behind the bench of a supreme court case, in the office of an overworked pubic defender, and in the thunderous laughter of a new father. He is in the welcoming smile of a stranger to those in need, and in the homeless being invited in. Justice and hospitality are not limited to one’s power or status, and neither is Zeus.
Hera can be found in a fabulous wedding with hundreds of guests, in the celebration of a long lasting marriage, or officiating the ceremony in a courthouse. She is in the “I love you”’s before bed, the hands held in the car after a first date, and in the hospital room of an elderly couple saying goodbye for the last time. Love is not limited to the length of one’s relationship, and neither is Hera.
Artemis can be found in the fields and forests of nature, in the calm breath of a hunter, or in the tears of grief for a lost pet. She is the courage in the voices fighting for respect and in the cheer of progress made. Equal treatment peace is not limited to those who hold the power, and neither is Artemis.
Hestia can be found in the jingle of a first-time homeowners’ new keys, in the shared dinner of a multi-generational home, or in the exhausted smile of a single parent. She is the warmth of a household and the love shared within its walls. Family and support is not limited to those you share blood with or in the size of your dwelling, and neither is Hestia.
Ares can be found in the measured steps of a solider over seas, in the joyous tears of a spouse when their loved one comes home, and in the flag wrapped around a coffin. He is in the voices of those calling for change, in the recovery rooms of the wounded, and in the minds of those struggling with trauma. Safety and wellness are not limited to one’s demographics and neither is Ares.
Hades can be found in the grief left behind after a death, in the weight of responsibility of leaders, and in the darkness of winter. He is with those who cry and fear for their lives, and in the scars left behind the pain can be too much. Loss and recovery is not limited to those strong enough to withstand it and neither is Hades.
Persephone can be found in the joy at the first warm day, in the love bridging distance between lovers, and in the will of those daring to strive for their dreams. She is the wonderment of a child at a honeybee, and the beauty found in the darkness. Energy and strength is not limited to the times of light and color, and neither is Persephone.
Demeter can be found in the engines of the machines in a field, in the bounty of a community garden harvest, and in the first sprouts of an amateur gardener. She is the change of the seasons and the rebirth of the new year. Change and plenty are not limited to those with capital or land, and neither is Demeter.
Dionysus can be found on the floats of a pride parade, in the movements pushing for equality, and in the bedroom of a closeted teenager. He is both the euphoria and dysphoria felt by some in their bodies, and in the community embracing those who feel lost. Rights and identity are not limited to those who one loves or how one looks, and neither is Dionysus.
Poseidon can be found on the decks of a ship in a storm, on the docks with a father teaching his son to fish, or in the serenity on a sandy beach. He is the joyful screams of children running from the waves and the persistence in one learning how to swim. Power and possibility is not limited to the oceans and or one’s skills, and neither is Poseidon.
I’ve heard of god spousing a bit but there’s lots of contrasting information about it and what it actually is. Would you mind explaining it?
I'm sure there are multiple specific definitions for each person's practice, but in general it's belief that you can have a romantic relationship with a God. In many cases it implies entering some sort of spiritual marriage, bond, or a similar relationship implying closeness, intimacy, and uniqueness of the tie between the worshipper and the Deity (hence "spouse"), but that isn't necessary.
For a myth example... Think about Ariadne, who was a mortal married to a God; or Hyacinth, who was a mortal in a relationship with a God - and other mortals that happened to be picked by and taken into a Divine-mortal relationship. For less intense examples: think about Cassandra who was devoted to Apollo as a lover would, or about other priests and priestesses who would see their Patrons as their lovers. Christianity does it too btw.
This concept, but applied to everyday worship. Some people find comfort in knowing they are loved as a lover or a spouse, but of course it doesn't make anyone less/more than another if they're in a relationship like that. It's just a way some people choose to perceive their faith and their Deities. Nothing harmful done. 🌞
Another EFT tapping video now the video i was searching found it . In this it's easier to understand again I'm saying that Affirmation should be customized any Affirmation you want say and tap on point . Highly recommended for void , sc or even manifesting it doesn't matter. Just into mirror start Affirming and taping . Do it in the morning right after waking up .
Hello! If you've wandered into deity or spirit work sects of the magical community then you've probably encountered the phrase "devotional act" at some point.
To some folks, this may be obvious, but to plenty of us starting out we had no clue what "devotional acts" were or how to do them. Here's a quick guide to get you started!
Thankfully it breaks down easily!!
Devotional: of or used in religious worship. Act: take action; do something; behave a certain way
So put this together and we get acts that you do as a way of worship! You can do these actions as offerings to whatever entity you're devoted to or even as a one-time offering to a being you don't usually work with.
This is often a way of thanking the being you're interacting with or is used to appeal to or petition an entity for their power or wisdom.
Now, the type of devotional act is going to vary based on who or what you're devoting said act. However, I've compiled this short and non-exhaustive list for you to check over and perhaps take inspiration from!
Pray
Sing
Dance
Work out/exercise
Create art
Recite poetry
Clean up and maintained areas relevant to or protected by the entity
Listen to music that reminds you of the being
Cook
Meditate
Spend time with them
This is a very simple and basic list, if you want to get more detailed ideas please look into the lore and mythology of the entities you work with or are trying to petition or talk to others who work with them. You can also simply ask the being yourself what they would like you to do!

BACKSTORY
So I decided to fully immerse myself in "persisting" and fulfilling when I listened to Lonely one by LOVA because I spent around an hour just sobbing because I related to the song.
the week that I started was around Easter break and I was under the most amount of stress I have ever been through and I could see it the effects on my body
I was breaking out with huge pimples even though I was on accutane, I was averaging 2 hours of sleep a day every week for 2 weeks, my period had going on for 2 weeks, I was losing weight rapidly (was under 35kg:( ) my anxiety was at an all time high because I got harassed again(sexual assault victim). I used to have severe depression and have had multiple failed attempts of suicide. AND YES I WAS DESPERATE AS FUCK TO MANIFEST THIS DREAM LIFE OF MINE WHICH IS NO LONGER A DREAM
in the mornings I would be super anxious but I learned how to deal with it and get myself into the state super easily
HOW I DID IT
I GOT OFF TUMBLR: you know how many times I doubted myself only to realise I was doing everything right
I also read and listened to Edward Art MULTIPLE TIMES
Within a week of fulfilling and persisting, I had manifested my dream life. just like that. I woke up one morning and everything I had ever desired was right there. and it was super easy.
all I did was affirm(to remind not to get), visualise and feel. I would only do these methods if I wanted to, if I didn't I wouldn't.
Within a few days, the anxiety lessened so much and it started to feel natural.
this was a question on Bambi's " how I manifested with hard circumstances " post which has now been sadly deleted but I remember copying this because it gave me hope at the time I copied it (don't hope, just know)
"But isn’t ranting “not letting the old story die out?” you and i could rant until our minds are cleared, just as long as you flip my thoughts, you are on the right track. I rant for 2% of my 24 hour days. The other 98% i was persisting in the fact that creation was done. as “time” went on, it began to feel more natural and I felt more at ease. I held onto that feeling because I knew this was when I would get my desires and I did."
and that was when I knew I shouldn't give up and I just kept going even when I wanted myself to just get on tumblr and overconsume
I actually nearly decided to see what I was "doing wrong". I clicked on one of Aphrodite's posts but I didn't read it. I just asked myself if I would look through it if I had my desires and I wouldn't and since I already have all of my desires I didn't.
Whenever the anxiety was too strong and I could feel the frustration and desperation building up, I would just rant and it helped me calm down and get back into the state super easily.
why?
because STATES MANIFEST THOUGHTS DON'T
which is why you can rant.
you know how many FUCKING DOUBTS I had, but I didn't even give them attention coz they didn't deserve any and how many times I wanted to just give up, but I was like NO, STFU, I DON'T WANNA LIVE MISERABLY ANYMORE and now I'm not :)
The affirmations I used:
It is done
I am living my dream life
I am in my desired reality
The 3d will conform as long as i keep persisting
Imagination is the real reality
I also daydreamed, but since imagination is the real reality they were real
WHAT I MANIFESTED
- desired appearance
- name change
- family change
- skills (drivers licence etc)
- apartment and furniture
- wealth
- a bunch of random materialistic things
- desired friend group (I absolutely love them!)
- desired uni and always getting good grades
- outfits from pinterest
and a bunch of other things
- I also ended up manifesting an sp without even knowing and he's pretty much I everything I scripted him to be(scripted a year ago because I didn't really care for a relationship) but this happened before I manifested my dream life
after a year and half of being on loablr I finally manifested my dream life. and you can too
(there was probably over 100 things I wanted but I realised what I want is not much, nothing ever is when you know about loa and yes, i was super desperate)
you don't need anymore information other than @angelsinluv states post and fulfillment challenge
you shouldn't ever be stressed or worried while manifesting whatever you want, because you wouldn't stress if you had it
TAKE YOUR TIME
YOU GOT THIS
Do you have any book recommendations to learn more about roman paganism and roman festivals? I'm interestes as a neo-pagan witch expanding and changing their craft. This is where my inspiration led me but I struggle to find sources.
Roman books and writings, mostly. That's the most authentic you can get with Roman polytheism & festivals. No one knows their own religion better than the people who practiced it but you have to vibecheck them for political agenda because a lot of these writers lived under tyrannical rule.
Cicero, Livy, Varro, Virgil (with caution), Ovid (double checking), Plautus, Horace, Tibullus, etc. I recommend looking through NovaRoma, Perseus.edu, or Penelope.edu for original Latin texts. Latin Library works too but it usually doesn't have translations.
Some books that aren't Ancient but have decent information:
A Dictionary of Greek and Roman biography and mythology
Roman religion in Livy
Malevolent Gods and Promethean Birds: Contesting Augury in Augustus's Rome
Omens and Augury in Plautus
A Dictionary of Greek and Roman Antiquities
The Roman Festivals of the Period of the Republic
A Companion to Families in the Greek and Roman Worlds
I have PDFs/links to all of these sources, so if you can't find something, just ask me.
Hope it helped!

Types of Witches Part 2
Intelligence types, personality types and magick
This could very well be me reading way too much into my own theories about magic. However, I do believe that intelligence types (verbal, spatial, intrapersonal, etc) play a part in how one works magic. Likewise, I also feel that personality types play a role as well. All of this culminates into a unique magical practice for each individual person. For the purpose of this post, I will be using my own personality type and intelligence type and relating it to my magical practice.
Let’s start with intelligence type, I am a linguistic-verbal intelligence type. My focus is writing, books, and speech. Along with this comes the physical traits of having hearing as my strongest sense. When I get scared watching a movie, I cover my ears because that is how I take in information.
In terms of my personality type, I am INFP-T. This breaks down into Introvert, iNtuitive, Feeling, and Perceptive. The “T” is for Turbulent meaning that I’m chaotic in both thought processes and in terms of action.
Now for the breakdown of how these relate to my magic. Intelligence type is how I express myself, I use speech and writing to express myself. My personality type is expressive of in what way my power is activated.
Introversion being that I like to practice alone without fear of being judged. On that front, I turn my thoughts inward and dive into a story or book or just journal.
Intuition is my drive. I am driven less by the prewritten spell work of others and more by what I hear when I interact with books or characters. My intuition is also how I know things will work right no matter how odd the components of a spell seem.
Feeling is my empathy for others. Without my empathy for others, I would be unable to tap into the deeper aspects of my power. This is also linked to my psychic abilities. My ability to feel the emotion behind the words of someone else.
Perceptive is how I see the world. Changing one little detail in a story or in an occurrence could have a domino effect. As an autistic person, my abilities to perceive the world is very different from a vast majority of the population. Perception is also linked to visualization, crossing the barrier between what is fictional or written and what is real. Speech and incantations fall into this. This is also where the power comes full circle. Linking back to my intelligence type.
Turbulence stands apart and on its own for various reasons. The first reason being that this is the spark. The fire that blazes deep within me. The is is passion, creativity, and insight. Turbulence is tapping into the chaos of the world and changing the way things are through the methods described above. This could be writing, or incantations or even pulling raw energy from a story. Turbulence is the core of my power. When I speak passionately about something, I can hypnotize people, this also links to my physical abilities. Touching someone while speaking passionately will amplify the effect.
So there you have it. This is the breakdown of my power via my personality type and intelligence type. It goes by many names and you can take your pick. Wordcraft seems most appropriate seeing as it’s defining of writing and eloquence. However, Bibliomancy could also be one. Whatever the term used to define this craft, this power, it is intrinsically a part of me. So what is your intelligence type and personality type, how does it link to your power?

Traditional witches want to honor the “old” ways of practicing their craft, and will often focus on working with the local history and spirits of where they are or where they’ve come from. While these witches do old history and customs in high regard, there are absolutely contemporary traditional witches practicing today.

Not many people will be able to understand what Wordcraft is. To remedy this, I have compiled the list below along with a few alternative ways to define Wordcraft. Please note that this list is not definitive. There are always going to be more powers and abilities that have yet to be discovered.
Alternative ways of defining Wordcraft:
- The writer’s witchcraft
- Word witchery
- The magic of words
- Eloquent Enchantment
List of Wordcraft abilities:
- mimicry of powers and abilities of characters (limitations of physics do apply)
- creation of paper charms (aka petitions, wish cards)
- character communication (bibliomancy)
- potion creation (energetic infusion of described potions into water or liquid)
- spell casting (using books as inspiration for incantations to create change. Can also be off the cuff casting)
- verbal empathy (the ability to tap into knowledge of a person by reading or hearing their words)
- magical storytelling (can write stories and works that create magical effects)
- persuasion (some Wordcrafters are extremely persuasive and can lace their voice with magic to charm people)
- spell writing (can take any spell and rewrite it into pure incantation form. Can also create new spells for others)
- Reading magic (by reading a book, a wordcrafter can intuitively pick up the type of magic held within.)
In short Wordcraft is all about fluidity and words.

This is really a raw thought and I’ll meditate on it later but.
Why are we perceiving myths about Poseidon’s roughness and aggressiveness as a person hurting a person instead of reading this off as the unpredictability and uncontrollable, destructive nature of the sea?
What type of a witch am I? This can be so stressful on the beginning of your journey. Like me... you may be looking up different types of witchcraft and which titles. The thing is you don't know yet what your journey is going to hold. Looking back I connected with different types of witchcraft. The witchcraft that you connect with may determine what title you'd like to give yourself. The good news is you don't have to decide right now because it's a journey.
Keep An Open Mind: To limit yourself in saying that you are a particular type of a witch and only do one type of witchcraft... may stifle your growth in your craft. You don't know what you connect with yet... I didn't. You have already claimed that you are a witch... it's a title. What type of witchcraft you go towards is your personal journey. Being a witch is enough. ✨
- when shuffling, pay attention to the cards that fall out of the deck. sometimes they have a special message for you.
- questions aren't always necessary when reading. letting the cards tell you what they need to helps to develop your intuition, and the relationship between you and your deck (or the spirit you are working with, depending on how you divine information).
- when reading with multiple cards (i.e. as a spread), try and string the cards together rather than interpreting them by their individual meanings:
recurring suits, themes, symbols, and numbers
proportions of suits and uprights vs. reversals
position of the cards (e.g. if people are present in the cards, where are they looking?)
colours of the cards (e.g. do any of the cards stand out more than the rest?)
- although each card has a core meaning, different decks with different art could emanate different "flavours" of the core meaning.
- draw a clarifying card if something confuses you, but try not to draw any more than two cards per reading.
It’s amazing how in just about three years of practicing witchcraft, I’ve gone from the mindset of “I must follow every single thing that other witches post online,” to “I’m doing what I want.”
