Play Stupid Games, Win Stupid Prizes

I wasn't really sure what to title this at the start, as I had some options. "Automatic writing gone wrong.", "Safety First: Magic Edition", "Bad Ideas & Exorcism"....All would have been appropriate.

Yesterday, someone reached out to me over my Instagram page and she was not in a good space as a result of some particularly careless magic. She'd smoked a joint and thought it was a good idea to try some automatic writing, and while none of those things are particularly "bad" when someone has the talent for it, trance work has some serious risks for the uninitiated. Here, the uninitiated was initiated into the spirit world by a kind of trial by fire that likely did some serious damage, as she was possessed by the spirit of a sassy female that did not have her best interests at heart. 

As such, this is a Public Safety Announcement: if you're going to try your hand at magical endeavors, especially ones where some form of trance and/or spiritual possession are likely to occur, do so safely and sanely. The spirit world is a wide-open place and for every beneficial angel, respectful land spirit, or kindly demon you encounter, there are a whole lot of desperate, unsavory beings out there. You don't really want those entities taking control of you, as when they do so, they act out & generally do things that can get you into serious trouble.

Last night, this lass lost total control of her left arm for several hours as a result of her attempt at automatic writing. Up until the point at which I negated the presence of this spirit, it could have caused her to harm herself. There were several points at which she was near pointed objects that the spirit could have jammed into her eyes, throat, or neck, making for a very real danger when you're working with entities of this kind.

If you would like to attempt automatic writing and other such experiences, do so after you've made friends with sufficiently powerful entities to remove whatever it is you call to. If this is your end goal, your guides had better have the strength necessary to go to war over your body. If you are going to call something up, be sure you have the means of putting it down. Spirits exist, magic exists, and the capacity for both to do great harm to you exists if you're careless.

This isn't intended to be a fearmongering post, so much as its a reminder to be careful. I rather like you guys and gals, and would very much like to see each of you happy, healthy, and whole. That's quite difficult to achieve if someone is careless and/or negligent in their interactions with the other side.

Blessings,
Chris

That was definitely a contributing factor, Don, but simply desiring for something to happen doesn't make it so. This can influence receptivity and make it easier for a spirit to influence a person, but it doesn't remove all of the insulation one has.

Choosing to dose on a mind-altering substance and slipping into a trance cuts through all of those barriers, however, and while that's not a bad thing, it is certainly something to be careful about. That might seem innocuous enough, but experiences like this underscore how careful one had best be with unfamiliar spirits.

Blessings,
Chris

Guess based on anger I sense you can guess who this might be. What led to my situation seemed be a host of things. When I was a child was very depressed. So asked a spirit to process me instead of sying. Now why would I do that? I lived in a house filled with 2d shadow sports similar to one which have me issue later. It seemed every life time I messed with magic and got into trouble. OnE time made a pact which have me power but hurt alot of people. Apparel some of those spirits came back to haunt me. Then I had the feeling after becoming more sensitive that there was something rotten and wretched within me before I got into magic. Which attracted ississ. Then I can't help feel as if something reAched back in time to mess with me. It feels like I was set up as a kid.
Add to for whatever reason (some folks are gifted with brilliance of charm) I was gifted with the reverse of blessedness. Which led to deep sense of worthlessnes.

I know it sounds all.weird but it just feels for whatever reason I was marked for destruction.

From what I under stand reality is like a body and every part is a cell and evil is like disease. If stuff isn't in right place it gets cleaned out.

I know I crossing boundary and sorry. It when said happy and whole wanted to resolve this issie. If you get mad I don't blame you

My response was not rooted in anger, but rather in an understanding of the topic at play. Folks reach out to spiritual sources of help when their lives are unwinding, and so it is that spiritualism and magic are both deeply connected to the dual concepts of need and suffering.

Where need exists, the desire for assistance often grows. There's nothing wrong with that, but its important that those in such positions not open themselves up to greater harm as has been articulated here. Otherwise, this need and the suffering attached to it grows in depth and breadth and positive changes are not achieved.

Its for that reason alone that I've offered this article as a cautionary word. One can reach out for assistance and improve their experiences without doing something dangerous or foolhardy in the process.

Blessings,
Chris
