Why is feeling so important? 🌊🌌

Because feeling is the core of kindness, empathy, and compassion.

Because feeling is the seed 🌱 that makes such flowers bloom: the desire to be kind, the internal drive of empathy, and compassion.

We have been nurturing distancing, forced detachment, competition, individualism, and we have overlooked the view of others, the value of exchange, kindness, the expression of affection… which are not obligatory things, in reality nothing can be obligatory, but precisely because they are not, they highlight our CHOICES.

And you, what do you choose? What have you chosen?

Do you still seek to feel?

How much has your life been mechanized and distant from the sensitive gaze towards yourself and others?

Take me to a transcendence type of place 

One that knows no limitations, time or space 

A place that silences my body and my mind 

One that connects me to a direct line 

To God, I mean. 

And I know I am one with the divine 

But this meat suit called humanity stops it’s radiant shine 

I call my higher-self back to its place, 

Here, in the now 

To help me with any challenges that I face 

I know I have the force within no matter what 

So, I call back my power, a power which cannot be bought. 

It's always been with me, that much I know now 

And in the present and on wards, I know longer have that doubt.

"God" for I have no other name to call them, is not like the Christian God of the Bible. They are not a man in the sky. My God who I am devoted to is the embodiment of the divine love. As in the love a tree has for the earth and the vultures love the carcass. Love that is dirty and messy and violent and voracious. This is not biblical sterile love. My God's goal is to devour and be devoured. Love as an act of violence. Love as consumption. Divine androgynous love. Creator of the King under the Hill and the venusian Lady of the Primordial Waters. The Bacchus/Christian like sacrificed God, consumed by their devotees to taste and worship divinity at its more primal and personal.

God.

“For the sake of my heart I’ll write these lines

I’ll tell the truth about my trying times

I hope you’ll understand me in these simple rhymes

Ascension was hard it was growth that I needed

Now I sit where I’m needed

All I had to do was just sit

All I had to do was just see it

Now I return from my grave,

It’s only Grace that I crave

But I didn’t know the truth of my past, I didn’t know that I could be brave

That I could behave, that I had lost faith

See God held my hand, as I sunk to the bottom

Never left me to die as I lost myself in Sodom

Gomorrah became my best friend till I was engulfed in the fires of Eden,

Lot’s wife told me about Adam, I didn’t know he was a heathen

But God understood us all

He told me to write it down during my fall

So I can rise in the fall

God understood my soul, He understood it all

Then They showed me the truth of their being

God exists in us all

Creation was a story of the power in my mind

Anything can come to exist, when you allow yourself to fall.

So God held onto my hand

And then it was Us against them all.”

btw 'syscourse' and plural infighting isn't accomplishing anything. back in the late 90s and early 2000s, the only communities and resources for plurals that were widely available were for and by non-traumagenic systems. the only people who were advocating for normalizing and accepting plurality on a large scale were non-traumagenic systems. if you did research into plurality 10 - 15 years ago, most of the results that came up would have been experiences written by spiritual and natural plurals.

many people at the time were expressing their dislike of forcing every single plural to identify as if they had trauma- many found this insulting to themselves, and rightfully so! no one should be forced to identify in a way they don't agree with just to rightfully be a part of a community they already occupy. this obsession with "you can only be plural if you have trauma" has only come about extremely recently. i found out about plurality through the otherkin community. i was actually told about DID by someone in the spiritual plurality community. people don't seem to understand that most non-traumagenic systems have respect for traumagenic systems and don't gatekeep their spaces to prevent us from entering.

older plural spaces on the web like healthymultiplicity accepted all plurals. the goal of the community was to show that you can live as plural and not have it be a tragedy or something to "fix". if anything, folks with dissociative disorders owe a LOT to non-traumagenic systems for pushing to normalize plurality without implying that we HAVE to integrate our headmates and try to stop being plural. a huge part of the early online plural community was there to push that plurals can and do live happy lives and shouldn't view their plurality as a bad thing

it's not going to make singlet society see us in a better light. it's not going to get people to understand plurality better. it's not going to get us better mental health resources. it's not going to improve the quality of care for dissociative and traumagenic systems. all you're doing is bullying someone else that you don't understand simply because you don't agree with them.

you're not going to recover from your trauma or understand your own plurality better by denying the existence of other types of plurality. you're not "making the community safer" by gatekeeping. telling other people how their brains work is policing their identities. whether or not you want to accept it, if you forcefully kick endos out of plural spaces, you are the cop you claim to hate.

fighting with people on your own team will never net you a victory. to every other dissociative and traumagenic system: endos are on your side. you are wearing the same jersey. you are made of the same flesh and blood. enough. come together to share your similarities instead of fighting over differences. celebrate the diversity that plurality offers. don't take someone else's identity personally. someone can share the space with you without having to match exactly how you identify. diversity is what makes a community thrive.

the mind's entrapment and the heart's path (wtf? come here and see)

when we consider that people also make wrong choices because they are also in learning processes,

repeating others' steps is literally copying and pasting their mistakes into your life.

Why are you so afraid to follow yourself?

The mind seeks what worked for others, but this has always frustrated you and will continue to frustrate you because no path is the same...

Just think about the feeling of frustration when you search the internet for an answer to a completely personal and particular question, and nothing comes up that truly resonates.

Why?

Perhaps because the answer is not outside?!

Or because there is no encyclopedia in our existence with all the answers to every personal situation each of us has.

The mind seeks the quickest path,

which often will frustrate you, in the short or long term...

The heart, however, feels, lives, and vibrates with what truly makes sense on your personal path.

The amount of love I feel for a person is understood by me, and I cannot expect others to understand and feel the love I feel. The amount of happiness I feel in a career is felt and understood by me...

In other words: there is no experience by proxy.

It's the same as p0rn0gr4phy. People try to transfer themselves to someone else's external experience, FAKING feelings, desires, and sensations, but it's so false that it becomes a repetitive and vicious cycle, of roller coasters rather than something stable, true, and lasting.

After all, they are not experiencing it; they are manufacturing their own feelings.

Experiences MUST be lived by us.

I said it before and I repeat it now: there is no experience by proxy.

In the process of experience, we must connect, feel, perceive, because each experience will have a unique meaning depending on the person.

And each experience will occur according to what you need to learn and be now. Break free from the chains of patterns... connect to YOURSELF.

It is much more enjoyable and personal when it is about you, with you, for you (and I'm referring to anything in your life!).

It is important to understand that things must be what our essence wants to seek and achieve, not what others say it should be.

The other's path made sense to them. But it won't necessarily make sense to you (and there is more than a 90% chance it won't make sense to you).

Especially when we consider that people also make wrong choices because they are also in learning processes. Repeating others' steps is literally copying and pasting their mistakes into your life (adding this mistake to another: that of already avoiding yourself).

It’s like copying someone’s test in school or college, but doing this in life is even more serious because you will always be copying from others, and unlike a test, getting out of this mistake will cost a bit more time and energy.

So, why not start today reflecting on WHICH STEPS YOU HAVE TAKEN? And if you have been doing this to follow someone specific or society, stagnating or regressing in your own process of evolution? Why are you so afraid to follow yourself?

That is why a person gets so frustrated when seeking ready-made answers; when they watch videos looking for ready-made answers to their situation or what should be done.

There is no protocol for life. The script is your own path, to be discovered, painted, and filled in by you.

Look INSIDE, not outside.

That is why we don't understand the processes of others, let alone our own. It’s a mirror. When we don’t understand ourselves on our own path, we distance ourselves from our essence and from what the heart truly wants to point out.

When we don’t understand ourselves, how can we understand others?

And then we gradually distance ourselves from other attributes linked to the essence: intuition, empathy, sensitivity.

Because everything becomes mechanized, and thus, we disconnect from feeling, from self-connection, and from connection with others.

And, doing this, patterns are reinforced,

after all, people were constantly doing exactly what did not resonate with them, but which the world viralized and determined as right (but which worked for one, two, or a small group).

And then you distance yourself from understanding everything that is within the essence (intuition, connection w/ yourself, self-knowledge, truly knowing others) and everything that is particular and unique also becomes increasingly imperceptible to your eyes... becoming incomprehensible as well.

When you need answers, look inside, not outside.

Zuko's eyes watered against his will when the ghost of a woman he did not know smiled at him like he was her child.

Zuko decided right there and then that maybe, just maybe, this too was something he came to find.

Ghost-Mother takes a look into Zuko's soul in For the Spirits Chapter IX: A Rider Alone.

More than a stranded soul, Kya holds all the love of the Old Tribe and the means to calm a coming tempest. Zuko won't ever forget her.

(He won't be allowed to.)

“Low Spoon” witchcraft doesn’t exist.

This is a post for all my disabled siblings. (But it applies to broke or low-income siblings as well.)

By the way, you heard me. What does exist is capitalism, consumerism and scarcity, all things that don’t belong to witchcraft. Witches in the past were mostly poor, unprivileged and unhealthy individuals with just one skill: knowledge. Yes, for today’s americentric standards they’d have been called “low-spoons practitioners”.

No fancy candles? No cauldron? Just one heavily used tarot deck?

Yes, no fancy candles Susan, you can keep those paraffin toxins to yourself.

Cauldron, Deborah? I have no money to waste for your pinterest aesthetics. We cook in this house, I can simply use a kitchen pot.

Mais oui Elizabeth, just one old tarot deck. It’s used my dear Elizabeth, you know… that’s something that happens when you actually use… tarot instead of purchasing 15 decks, then ending up using just one or two of them and leaving the other 13 to collect dust and resentment towards you.

*Sigh*

This is all to say, witchcraft doesn’t need a 9-steps process to be achieved. Calling it “low-spoons” practice just means “high spoons” practice is the norm. It is not. Most importantly, it never was. You don’t need 30 specific crystals to perform a spell, you don’t even need one most of the times.

— Addition: If you fit into the “Low Spoons” type of witch and you noticed that your spells or rituals don’t work, then let me share one of the possible reasons why they fail: you followed a “low spoons” recipe or spell preparation, consciously or unconsciously gave the title “too much power” (your subconscious registered your spell as something lesser than a proper ceremony) and any energy that you and the ingredients released just plopped like a pudding on the floor.

Branding something as “lesser” in spirituality can lead to two results: failure or high delays. Yes, the herbs you use still have, nourish and release power, but without YOUR faith, their power alone can do so much; in most cases, your subconscious skepticism rejects your desired manifestation leading to a delayed or completely failed magickal attempt.
