Thank you for your replies! I'll keep the precautions in mind. Although I must say it's very intriguing how he doesn't know about his origins. And what does he think of the Christians and humans in general? What does an eternal being do for eternity? What does he look forward to? Thank you for answering again :)
He said after realizing he existed, he just sort of... existed for a long while. There was nothing except him and other higher beings but he was separate from them so he was lonely. He was lonely to the point that he made things and people.
"Life for me had no meaning until then. I did not bring meaning into their lives, it was the other way around. They brought meaning to mine", was what he said when I asked him
For the most part, he likes humans. Since for a long time he was alone, he's comforted by their existence. It doesn't mean he likes or supports their every action or everything that happens to them but for the most part, he tries to never intervene or interfere as much as possible. He can get disappointed but not to the point that he tries forcing a different outcome, he's done that twice and it has never ended well so he just doesn't anymore. Interference can only be done on a minor scale now, he says
He both likes and dislikes Christians but he doesn't want you to misunderstand what he means here. He likes that there are people who believe in him but he doesn't like when they twist or overuse his words. He likes that some Christians are very good people living by his words but he is also worried that if his word wasn't out there that they wouldn't be those types of people. On a core level, he likes Christians but he doesn't like it when people twist his words or follow his words like they're law. Basically tl;dr he's not a dictator (someone who dictates your entire life) and doesn't like it when Christians treat him as such & he doesn't like it when people use or twist some of his words, laws, or values to their own benefit. I paraphrased heavily but he thought Jesus was a cultural reset but we're going back in circles apparently 😀
He said that for him, for a very very long time, life had no meaning. He realized that if he was going to live forever then what was the point in wallowing in meaning nothing. He decided one day that if he was not born with meaning, if he was not made with a core meaning, he would make one himself. He looks forward to simply existing. Everything he does or sees is equally meaningful to him and he doesn't need one big major meaning to his very long life. He said he can't speak for other eternal beings but watching his children makes him happy. He sometimes interacts with them and his other creations.
"One would think I would've lost hope in my children or in my creations after the many many years I've seen them repeat and repeat again and again the things I have told them not to do and yet I never stop trying, neither do they. I find that in every year that a major event has taken a chunk of hope from me, there had been an equal amount of 'smaller' events that had restored it. I live and I choose to live with hope"
I hope you have a better understanding of the funky but equally wise man up in the heavens who has a really loud voice (He is surprisingly both nihilist and optimistic). And yeah, its definitely super interesting that he doesn't know about his origins. He was so confused to be asked a question that he just doesn't know the answer to
this is so interesting! thank you for answering!!

UA here, I’m not very sure. I’ve always been able to just tap in and out of the astral realms. My mother says it’s because I’m made of the stars so it’s easy to leave this fleshy meat suit and crawl into the heavens/astral realms. I just kinda, sit/lay down, tell myself I’m ready to fly and I do. It can be a bit scary and I deffo don’t recommend others to do so with out first learning how to protect their energies and how to properly come in and out of AP, but it is fun to do. I actually-🐛🦋
That is sure interesting!

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!
Enjoying my work? Consider supporting me for as little as $1 on ko-fi!
small reminder that this reality isn't the blueprint. why tf would one singular reality dictate the whole damn multiverse??? you are allowed to script and shift to whatever reality you want, even if it's deemed as "unrealistic" from this reality's standard. you are allowed to have EVERYTHING you desire, don't let this reality limit you from what you truly want.
hi <3 this isn’t meant to bring up bad memories or anything (please don’t feel like you need to answer) but with the hardship you went though, how did you stay consistent with having a strict mental diet? like how did u change ur life in a week by sticking with it, as I’m struggling really bad with homelife and feel like I’m just too drained daily bc of it. I’ve read your ‘how I changed my life’ post and I’m trying to apply the law but it’s like I never reach the sabbath state, even with persisting and affirming. (this isn’t meant to be a trauma dump I just need advice !)
don’t strain yourself, my dear. affirming is a technique, don’t do it if you don’t want to.
you’re not trying to get into the wish fulfilled, you’re already there. it’s the end state. take it easy on yourself.
close your eyes and ask yourself, in your imagination, do you have your dream life? say yes to imagination because that’s the only truth. that is what creates reality.
“I tell you the truth, the Son can do nothing by himself; he can do only what he sees his Father doing, because whatever the Father does the Son also does. For the Father loves the Son and shows him all he does.”
imagination is the father, the outer world is the son. it has no will of its own, only to serve and reflect what you claim to be in imagination.
now bask in this feeling that you do have it. not you will - you do. you have it now.
return to this state whenever you want to - it’s your end, your truth.
there’s no extra work you have to do.
with a mental diet, I only affirmed on loop whenever the intrusive thoughts that came affected my mood/mental state. for the others, they remained powerless so there was no point in going against them, just shift your awareness and let them pass.
