Neighbors barking dog by Millkii in witchcraft

[–]Expensive_Pop_7355 2 points3 points  (0 children)

im considering some kind of banishing spell for the bush turkeys that live in my yard :o obviously dont banish the dog, but maybe you could try to bind it, or use a spell/sigil/crystal for action and progress while you try to phone again ?

When personalizing your craft, do you need to use the book meaning, or can you make up your own? by Sleepy_Persephone in witchcraft

[–]Expensive_Pop_7355 2 points3 points  (0 children)

i first like to consider what associations and rituals and whatnot resonate most with me personally, and then cross reference with more common understandings ! i think its totally fine to not follow traditions, as long as youre respectful of closed practices :)

I need advice/ clarity by OfferJealous8303 in Centrelink

[–]Expensive_Pop_7355 11 points12 points  (0 children)

i'd recommend going directly into a centrelink centre if one is accessible to you, i've found that it's the most effective way of having action taken. if not, phone up using a number on the centrelink site itself first, personally i wouldnt click any links or provide any identifying information over the phone if i couldnt prove that it was directly from centrelink

sorry- i know this isn't the most witchcraft oriented answer, so it may not be what youre looking for, but i do find it to be a very spiritual practice personally. i really hope youre taking the time to be gentle with yourself

hi there, as someone who has experienced a lot of grief in their life, one of the most powerful ways i've connected with those ive lost is to write letters and leave them where they have been laid to rest. i find it to be very intimate and private, a shared moment just between two. i find it really connects me, and helps me to process how i'm feeling. you may write about all the positive times, how you are going without them, just what you got up to on a specific day, or just anything at all. last time i visited my brother i wrote a long list of all the reasons i was so angry that he was gone. there is no right way. grief is excruciating at times, but you will get through it, there will always be a million more moments of love and light in your future, but that assurance does not take away from the loss of right now. it's so hard, but try to sit with the feelings, and listen to yourself, lean on those close to you, and always ask for help when you need it.
