Thank you so much for your patience and time!

I'm fascinated with some of his answers! What does he think of atheists/agnostics, science,other religions like Judaism, Buddhism,Hinduism or people who are condemned by some of the Christians like homosexuals, trans, etc.(It's okay if he chooses not to answer). About his interventions, can't he just manifest the desired outcome since his God? Also, what does he think of Neville's teachings? Or loa in general since it has also roots in other scriptures I think. And are there any quarrels or skirmishes among cosmic beings? How do they resolve it? The Panoptican theory is definitely interesting. And does he think there is someone else watching over them(him and other eternal beings)? I'm also currently contemplating whether him or all this is just a conjuration on your part and mine. I also recommend watching the egg by kurzgesagt. And I'm going to hell fr lol. Anyway, convey my regards to him and I wish the both of you well:).( I also thank him for his lovely words. I'll be taking care of myself and I hope both of you do the same.💗)

i actually have a question for him too if that's alright! does he ever attempt to communicate with other beings? obviously, christianity/catholicism are both monotheism but him mentioning other deities is very interesting, especially since he said he was very lonely at first. can he talk to them? or does them being in "other realities" so to speak hinder that? since he's technically all powerful, couldn't he communicate with them if he wanted to? i can't imagine that he wouldn't be able to, especially since we can channel ourselves.

How to communicate with your subconscious mind

So in my last post, I said that I communicate with my subconscious regularly. How do I do that, and what does it help me with? That will be answered here! Feel free to ask questions if you have any 💕

You may feel guided to read this post! If you do, don't ignore that guidance!! That is your subconscious mind telling you that it wants to talk to you, and showing you how to do it!!

The process of communicating with your subconscious is incredibly easy!

Specify that you want to talk to your subconscious mind. This can be as easy as thinking "I'd like to speak with my subconscious." Now that I have rapport with mine, I usually just call out "Subconscious?" in my mind, and it answers.

Allow yourself to be guided to its answers. This is the trickiest part of the process, but it does get easier as you practice! Basically, don't force yourself to think anything: the first thought that comes into your head should be your subconscious mind answering you!

Pro tip! If you feel resistance in your chest, mind, head, etc. you're probably forcing your subconscious to say certain things, and that's not actually what it's trying to say! When your subconscious mind talks to you, it will feel like your thoughts, but smoother and more free flowing.

After that, the biggest step is just taking with your subconscious mind. Talk to it like you would a person, because it's literally just you, and you want to treat you well 🥰 It might take a little while to become comfortable conversing with yourself in this manner, but it becomes easier every time you do it!

You'll likely find that your subconscious has a personality similar to your own, but it may act how you'd like to act, or how you used to act, etc. It will appear in the way that will be the most comfortable for you, so don't worry about it! Remember that your higher self is literally just you: the you that exists on the 4D plane. It wants you to be happy, and it loves you dearly, because you are a part of it!

Benefits!

In terms of manifestation, you can ask your subconscious mind directly for things if you desire. Of course, it will give them to you, and it will reassure you that you have what you want as many times as you need! What you want may still take some time to manifest, but know that your subconscious mind will have more answers about the delay than anyone on Tumblr ever could!

Your subconscious mind will likely be able to guide you to answers and conclusions that you would not otherwise think of or consider. It knows what you need to do to manifest, and it knows what's stopping you. Don't be afraid to ask it questions! It would love to answer them so you can get what you want 💕

me explaining that manifestation is more than getting your desire, but a personal journey to discovering yourself and un-learning old beliefs that once held you back so really it doesn’t matter if it’s taking you a while to get the whole concept of the law because its not about the destination but the journey and the things you’ll learn.

Once again reminding everyone to start their research into the Greek and Roman gods with theoi.com. I cannot convey to you how helpful the translations and (most importantly) vettings are. Yes, yes, Ovid is on there, but it tells you about who said what, what they said, and the time period it was made. From there, you can continue your research and learn more!

Spirit/Entity Work and Spirit/Entity Work are two different things. Spirit/Entity work involves working with spirits/entities that assist the practitioner in their metaphysical and mundane lives. It's forming a relationship between yourself and the spirit/entity as a partnership to ask for their assistance in exchange for offerings or work to be done on behalf of the spirit/entities.

It's not always guaranteed that the spirit/entity you petition for help in whatever it is you need help with will actually agree to help you and that's okay one, respect their wishes and two, there are other spirits/entities you can reach out to for help with your situation. On the other hand the same goes if a spirit/entity reaches out to you for whatever reason, you're not obligated to work with them (whether at this time or at all) if you don't want to.

Spirit/Entity worship is when you devote yourself or an aspect of your life, practice etc. to a spirit/entity. It's you honouring said spirit/entity by living your life according to the values of said spirit/entity and the culture they originate from and by adopting their morals, values etc. and living your life in a way that not only shows respect and honour to the spirit/entity but the culture they originate from as well.

While the interactions between the spirit/entity and the devotee isn't as much or as frequent as it would've been between a spirit/entity and their practitioner. Sometimes the spirit/entity will visit their devotee from time to time and sometimes spirits/entities do decide to bless their devotees in some way if they think that their devotees deserve it. Now this isn't something to work towards, neither should it really be an aim. Just be authentic in your devotion and good things might happen.

You don't have to be a witch/call yourself a witch to work or worship spirits/entities, neither does working or worshiping spirits/entities make you a witch. However, you can incorporate working or worshiping spirits/entities into your witchcraft if that's what you'd like, but remember you don't have to be a witch to practice either paths and neither does practising either paths make you a witch.

Before starting with spirit/entity work or worship decide which you like more spirit/entity work or spirit/entity worship? Which practice resonates with you more? For the rest of this post I will be talking in terms of spirit/entity work, because I'm a spirit/entity worker and have much more experience in spirit/entity work than I do spirit/entity worship.

Before delving into spirit/entity work decide which facets of spirit/entity work you'd like to focus on. There's general spirit/entity work (or eclectic spirit/entity work) where you work with a mix of different types of spirits and entities like deites, angels, the good neighbours, pop culture entities, demons etc. You could also look at specific facets of spirit/entity work like deity work (where you mainly work with deities) , ancestor work (where you mainly work with your ancestors) , demon/infernal work (where you mainly work with demons and other infernal spirit/entities (like underworld gods)), fae work (where you mainly work with the fae and other fae-like spirits and entities) and so on.

No facet of spirit/entity work is any less or more important or any less or more hard work than the other. They all have different ways of being handled and each facet has different rules and regulations than the other facets (some facets' rule collide in some cases). You don't have to decide immediately on which facet you'd like to focus on. Do your research, test the waters and than decide which facets you'd like to focus on.

Do a bit more research on the facet of spirit/entity work you'd like to focus on and also make sure you're in a comfortable place with the basics of protection, warding etc, the basics of energy work (or at least energy sensing), the basics of vetting (and when I say vetting I'm not talking about vetting them to figure out if they're some imposter spirit (but if imposter spirits are apart of your practice than sure you can do the vetting with this in mind) , I mean vetting in the way of getting to know the spirit/entity more), make sure you have a reliable method of divination yet (and if possible have someone you can trust and that's reliable who can confirm or deny your findings) and make sure you at least have some basics understanding of what boundaries are and the dos and don'ts of boundaries.

Say for instance you've decided you'd like to do deity work. If you've felt drawn to a specific (open and welcoming) pantheon like the Greek pantheon or the Celtic pantheon than do more research on the pantheon of your choosing, research the culture, the practices, the dos and don'ts of the culture and of course do research on the deity(s) you'd like to work with. Once you feel like you're in a comfortable place with the knowledge you have send out an invitation to the deity and hope they bite and reach out to you.

Remember even if they reach out it's not guaranteed that they'll actually work with you. They might just be reaching out to check out whoever it was that invited them. If they don't reach out, leave it at that, don't try and force the situation and just move on. There are plenty more deities in the universe who would be much more suited for you and your needs and interested in working with you.

You don't have to have had worshipped or honoured the deity before reaching out to work with them to start working with the deity, but if that's something you'd like to do than that's completely okay and you can do that if you'd like. You can also decide to do spirit/entity worship before you delve into spirit/entity work if you'd first like to get comfortable with the whole practice and if you're still trying to figure out what it is you'd like from this practice and no.

Remember you actually have to be willing to do the work if you do decide to delve into spirit/entity work (I think there are certain spirits/entities who do send their devotees tests and such, so you definitely also have to be willing to do the work when it comes to spirit/entity worship too). You can't just decide to reach out to a spirit/entity (whether they're a deity, angel, demon etc), if you're not willing or wanting to put in the necessary work.

There are a lot of spirits/entities that do not take kindly to their time being wasted for no reason and if this happens multiple times remember that the spirits and entities love to gossip and your name will definitely be shared if you think disrespecting them in such a way (not doing your work even after asking or agreeing to work with them and not keeping your end if the deal of whatever agreement you and the spirit/entity made before you started your working relationship together) will slide.

Contrary to what it might seem like according to social media (especially tiktok) spirit/entity work (especially deity work) is not that hard or overcomplicated. The only way it'll be hard is if you fight the spirit/entity on everything and don't want to do the work or face the tests. Having boundaries is good, but acting like a child and not wanting to do what you're told (as long as it's logical and it's in your ability to complete) is not going to make the working relationship any easier and it might end up making the spirit/entity leave because what's the point of them being there if you don't want to do the work?

When it comes to offerings and interactions it will depend on you and the spirit/entity itself, meaning while getting outside help is okay you cannot and shouldn't depend on outsiders when it comes to the relationship you have/want to build with the spirit/entity. Yes, you can find general resources and such on what a spirit/entity would like as an offering and you can ask other (reliable) practitioners on what kind of offerings a specific spirit/entity might like if you're just starting out.

However, it's also important to build your own relationship with the spirit/entity and figure out what works and what doesn't on your own (with the help of the spirit/entity of course) because one, what an offering a spirit/entity might like from one practitioner might be an offering the spirit/entity doesn't like or want to get from you and vice versa and two, like I mentioned while getting outside help is okay you cannot and shouldn't depend on outsiders for every single thing when it comes to your relationships and your practice in general.

With interactions, the basic idea is to be as respectful as you can be and make sure to address the spirit/entity by their proper formal title (if they have formal titles) like King, Queen, Marquis/Marquess, Duke, Prince etc and definitely don't call them lord or lady if they do have a formal title because even if you think it's respectful to some extent "lord/lady" hold little to no importance compared to most of spirits/entities' formal titles.

If you're not certain how to address a spirit/entity ask them. If ask them if you can address them by their formal title or if there is another way you can address them. Always ask the spirit/entity yourself what they'd prefer you call them by, while it's fine to ask for extra confirmation from a RELIABLE source, don't depend on others, especially not ones who insinuate it's okay to disrespect a spirit/entity's title (i.e. reffering to a Grand Marquis with something as insignificant as "Lord") when it comes things like these.

This is my own personal gnosis gathered through my own personal experience as well as research I've done. If you don't resonate with the below than that's okay, what's not cool is disrespecting me just because my experiences are different than yours

My soul is craving to understand what direction will lead to fulfillment

I feel you. I don’t know your story or your path, but if I can give an advice (not necessarily to you, it can apply to anyone going through something similar obviously) is that I noticed that a lot of people feel as if they HAVE to find a direction to take.

But sometimes there just is no direction, maybe you’re alive to have fun and do many things that simply make yourself happy.

But if you actually have a calling, the pressure of having to find something fitting for your soul might block you from actually finding it. It’s like you’re putting standards on yourself to find “the perfect path” either after other people’s expectations or your own.

Even without realizing it, you might be blocking what genuinely makes you happy from reaching you. For the time being, I’d suggest you to have fun with life, and do everything you want, try different things or research about activities that might interest you. One thing might lead to another and you’ll naturally find what your soul is craving for.

It’s like when you try to remember something forcefully, but the more you think about it, the more confused you get. But then once you stop trying to remember, it pops back in your mind. Or like trying to stop a hiccup! Hahah most of the times you just have to forget about it to solve the problem.

I’ve met people that do a job for 30+ years and then wake up one day and leave their life behind because it’s simply not what they want to do anymore. That takes a lot of courage! But if you built yourself from scratch once, you can do it again, no matter how many times people try to take it away from you. You get more experienced and more mature, and no one can take what you have learnt away from you. That is, unless you let them have the power to do so.

Believe in yourself and let yourself have fun for a while, become different people, explore different lifestyles. It doesn’t make you fake or a wannabe. Losing yourself doesn’t actually mean losing yourself. Sometimes you get stuck on autopilot and don’t realize that an old mindset or old patterns simply don’t work on the “present” you.

I hope you find your contentment, whatever it turns out to be.

Witchcraft 101: What Is the Difference Between Grounding and Centering ?

What Is the Difference Between Grounding and Centering ?

☽🔮☾🕯🃏🌕🕸✨🍃🍄🧿🌙✩ 

Trying to learn witchcraft and wiccan traditions on one’s own can get really complicated: there is just too much information out there, and not all of it is useful. A particularly difficult topic for new witches tends to be grounding and centering. This two terms are often used intercheangeably, but they mean different things and they are to be used at different times. In this article, we are going to explain the difference in a clear and concise manner. Centering and grounding are both related to energy work: they are both ways to steady your energy.

Grounding is a much more powerful practice: when you are feeling depressed, anxious, lost or stressed you might feel like you have lost your connection to yourself and to the Universe. That is when you should do some grounding: this practice allows you to tap into the energy of the Universe and draw power from it without exhausting your own resources. There are numerous ways to ground yourself: meditation is a very powerful one. Sit upright on the floor, with your palms touching the ground, and envision all the parts that touch the floor growing roots. Envision yourself as a tree, drawing energy through your roots, your head sprouting branches and leaves. Keep visualizing until you feel calm, at peace and connected to the Universe. This is only one way to ground: there are many others and all involve some kind of connection with nature. Some people prefer envisioning a flowing river washing over them, some like to walk barefoot on the grass, some prefer lighting a candle and concentrating on the fire.

Centering is a much softer experience that involves concentrating your own energy. Whenever you are feeling jittery, slightly drained or not effective enough you should ground; and it is a good practice to always ground before a spell. To properly center, you will have to locate where your center is: usually it is somewhere between the breasts and the midriff, close to your heart. If you are unsure of where your center is, picture something you love very dearly and meditate on it. It can be your pet, your best friend or your parents. The area where you feel that powerful fuzzy feeling of deep love and satisfaction is where your center is. To center yourself, sit in a comfortable position and concentrate on that deep, loving feeling and in your center. You will know you are properly centered when you feel happy, safe and at peace. You can also center through any activity that makes you feel happy, safe and relaxed: petting an animal, taking a nice bath, dancing, singing… anything that makes you feel at peace, alive and whole !
