#SPIRITUAL MANIPULATION

How is saying the ego is your enemy toxic? What about every religion that believes in the importance of ego death?
Within particularly toxic forms of New Age and New Age-adjacent spirituality, people who have doubts or hesitations about what they're hearing are told that these thoughts and feelings are just their ego trying to resist. I'm sure you can see where this is a psychological manipulation tactic that could lead people into some very bad places.
The practical reality is, these people telling others to surrender their egos want to replace it with their ego, so other people become an extension of themselves. They usually call it "unity consciousness," but let's be real, it's the closest thing to getting assimilated into a hivemind as there is in real life.
The modern New Age movement often teaches people that if they feel uplifted and positive, then what they're experiencing is from spirit; but if they feel confused, doubtful, or fearful, then they are "in their ego." They claim that this is spiritual discernment, but in reality it's a thought-control technique; it keeps them focused on the anti-intellectual feel-good New Age stuff and makes them ignore ideas and thoughts that challenge them.
As for these other religions, I can't comment on them because I don't really have experience, but I can say that they'd need to be evaluated on a case-by-case basis.

hey loves, let’s talk about one of my favorite energy-cleansing rituals: egg cleansing. it’s a practice rooted in ancient traditions (think mexican curanderismo, filipino spiritual beliefs, and other cultures) and is all about removing negative energy, bad vibes, or even spiritual blockages. i’m obsessed with how simple, yet powerful it is. if you’re feeling drained, stuck, or like something just isn’t right, this might be exactly what you need.
here’s a step-by-step guide to help you try it out:
ingredients
• 1 fresh egg (organic if possible—keep that energy pure!)
• a glass of water, salt, (chilly flakes and black salt)
how to perform an egg cleansing
1. set your intention:
• before starting, center yourself. light a candle, burn some incense, or say a quick prayer/affirmation like:
“i release all negativity and invite peace and clarity into my life.”
2. prepare the egg:
• rub some salt on the egg (massage the egg with salt) hold the egg in your hands and infuse it with your intention. visualize it absorbing all the bad vibes, negativity, and heavy energy that’s been lingering
3. cleanse your aura:
• starting at the crown of your head, gently roll the egg over your body. move downward head, neck, shoulders, chest, arms, stomach, legs, and finally your feet. don’t forget your back and sides if possible.
• as you do this, visualize the egg soaking up all the negativity. you can say something like:
“this egg absorbs all that does not serve me.” “this egg is absorbing all the negative energy” “i can finally start on a clean slate now”
4. crack the egg into water:
• once you’re done, carefully crack the egg into a glass of water (add some salt too in the water). be gentle; you don’t want to break the yolk right away.
• look at the egg and water for any patterns, bubbles, or shapes. these can symbolize the energy it picked up:
bubbles or spikes: negativity or tension.
cloudy whites: emotional heaviness.
cloudy water: signifies confusion, stress, or emotional overwhelm.
blood spots in the yolk: can indicate psychic attacks, curses, or unresolved trauma.
multiple bubbles in the yolk: represents people or situations contributing to your stress.
floating yolk or egg white: suggests unresolved emotions or health concerns.
a clear yolk and water: you’re in the clear, babe!
5. dispose of it properly:
• pour the chilly flakes and black salt mixture in it and flush it down the toilet or bury it far from your home. never keep the egg it’s carried away the energy you want to be free from.
pro tips for the best results
• perform this ritual during the waxing moon or full moon for heightened power.
• try doing this while in showers (naked) i did it like that
why it works/ why i did it
it’s not just about the egg. the act of intentionally focusing on your energy, visualizing negativity leaving your body, and creating sacred time for yourself is powerful af. combine that with the natural spiritual conductivity of an egg, and you’ve got a low-key yet magical ritual.
if you’ve ever tried this or plan to, let me know your experience! spiritual hygiene is just as important as physical hygiene, and rituals like this remind us to check in with ourselves.
so, yesterday something huge happened in the cosmos—pluto shifted into aquarius. if you know anything about astrology, you know this is massive energy. like, i felt it immediately. this shift brought this overwhelming urge to reinvent myself, release the old, and just become. but before stepping into this new chapter, i knew i had to cleanse myself energetically, spiritually, emotionally. i needed to clear all the stuck energy weighing me down. that’s why today, i pulled out one of my favorite rituals: the egg cleanse. it felt symbolic, like cracking open a whole new version of me. with Pluto entering Aquarius, this is the time to embrace transformation, growth, and that next-level glow up.
if you want to join me on this journey of becoming a higher self. please comment, like, reblog, and follow let's embrace the glow of together.

Spirit Work II
Spiritual Imposters
Before committing yourself to a deity or spirit one must communicate by learning about the entity in question, making certain they are who they say they are. Discovery of a spirit you thought you were working with is something else that leaves one feeling betrayed, upset, and oftentimes empty. Knowing the signs can really help discern things.
Mental Sock Puppets
A mental sock puppet is the result of talking to yourself and concluding self-talks as something else. The ego talks, you listen to yourself. Not a spirit. Or you establish contact but are incredibly biased hearing your thoughts. Not theirs.
It acts in accordance to your expectations.
You received no new information.
It’s only as knowledgeable as you are.
It only abides by your will. No one else.
It gives no signs unless you’re looking for them.
These are easy to get rid of if you identify the problem, recognize the problem, and let the narrative and ego go. No one needs to hear it. No one wants too either. You only end up hurting yourself and other people if things get too out of hand.
Lying Spirits
Some spirits are opportunists. They can portray an illusion pretending to be someone they’re not in order to gain loyalty and trust. They can take the form of a deity, guide, companion, or anything else that you would be most receptive to. This is why it’s good to know the basics to energy work and magick. Remember to learn different energies and how they feel to you. Remember to analyze the situation, yourself, the spirit, the environment, and working before proceeding forward. A lot of these malevolent entities like to feed off you or cause more drama that’s not necessarily needed.
Spirit Work and Continued Relationships
Veneration and Practice
This is about worshipping the deities or spirits you work with and highly depends on your practices and influences you choose to use and construct.
Most times there will be an altar setup or shrine dedicated to these spirits. Offerings of food, drink, incense, and trinkets would be a way of showing your dedication and interests of the spirits. There are other forms of interaction I have seen before.
Connection through art, music, nature, and meditation are just some of these other mediums. You don’t have to make this complex, and sometimes people have busy schedules making veneration hard to come by.
Try to keep things simple and remember it’s always okay to take a break due to circumstances. Spirits understand life comes first.
Patrons and Matrons
A Patron and Matron are deities that a devotee has a connection to. Its beyond standard devotional relations and is the main contact point for guidance and protection. It’s important to recognize that these types of relationships are built. They are not assigned.
Wicca is known for the patron and matron concept where duo theistic practices entail encouraging practitioners to seek out two divinities. The patron and matron would represent the divine masculine and divine feminine.
This is not a requirement in most practices, but in Wicca it is recognized in many circles.
Fallow Times
There are times where communication between you and the spirits can be difficult, and that’s okay. It happens with everyone. It doesn’t mean a spirit has left or that you’ve lost your ability to communicate. This feeling is temporary, and it’s a reminder that whenever this does happen, you need to take care of yourself first. Get the rest you deserve and try again later. Remember, this is normal due to circumstances – including stress, environmental factors, and any sort of disturbances one may have.
Oaths and Vows
There are many reasons why an individual would take an oath and vow. That’s between the practitioner and the spirit. This promise can come about for many different reasons, and even sometimes at the request of the spirit. However, this isn’t required if you are just working with them. It doesn’t mean control or status either. You can’t parade this around to get your way in certain situations. It doesn’t look good or help. Be aware of that. Remember why you did this, and what does it mean for you. That’s the most important part.
Displeasing Spirits
Those that are new to Spirit Work sometimes worry about displeasing the spirits. Repeat after me, deities and spirits who choose to work with you won’t get mad at you for being a human.
They will know there will be shortcomings, quirks, and variations.
You have NO obligation to listen to ANY person on this subject otherwise.
IF you do upset a spirit or make it angry question yourself as to why. Remember, communication is the key, and sometimes frictions can happen.
IF the behavior seems off and out of place, you may be dealing with an imposter. Check your sources and confirmation methods before determining the circumstances.

Kai Winn is one of the scariest, most sinister villains in all of Star Trek, and did a lot of horrible things, but her talking down to Kira about mourning for her boyfriend who died a horrible traumatic death just a few months ago is what makes me hate her the most
