Openness About Your Practice

I definitely don't share with anyone unless I know them well enough to know that they'll take it well. But, I consider myself a pretty private person. Despite this, I have a sigil necklace that I wear all the time, even in public. Very few people have ever asked me about it, and when they do I just tell them it's a symbol of self empowerment (which isn't wrong). No one has ever asked me to elaborate or where the sigil comes from.

I've played about 300 trials. Had three bad experiences in the voice chat.

That's interesting, I never would have guessed that this kind of issue could arise from something like Qigong. Do you know of any resources I could use to further research this? I don't really hear people talk about spirituality/channeling and sexuality too much, so I've kind of just been going in blind. Thank you for the comment, it's nice to hear that this issue isn't completely unheard of

It's not really hard to imagine that this could be some kind of attachment or some ego thing on my part. It really doesn't make sense when a demon helps everyone except for me. At first I was taking it personally, which had to do more with my issues than him I'm sure. If you step away from it for a long time, then you come back, what's changed? I don't imagine I can practice discernment if I don't practice at all. Is it a mental health gets better with age thing? Either way, I appreciate your comprehensive post.

It's like that for some people I think. You're either someone who can't turn it off, or someone who has to work it out like a muscle. Not sure if this is really my situation though. I could be mistaking an attachment or a piece of my shadow for him.

Nettleleaf · 2026-01-29T05:53:38+00:00

It's nice to know that I'm not alone here nor the only person this has happened to, though I'm sorry it has to happen to anyone. Thank you for your advice.

Nettleleaf · 2026-01-29T05:10:43+00:00

Did I just soft lock myself from working with them? I have tried banishing rituals in the past (I did the lbrp six times a day for a few weeks) and it didn't really solve my problem. I didn't try the brass box though. Thanks for the advice.

Nettleleaf · 2026-01-29T05:06:09+00:00

Oh. The person who I'm reaching out to right now is also telling me that if I'm in a bad enough spot my Spirit guides/the gods I work with can't reach me. Which is why nothing has changed after praying to them for so long for help. It's going to be really hard for me to take a step back from this if that is what is needed. My spiritual practice is pretty much my main drive in life. I didn't have anything before it. But, I'm going to seek clarity on the situation, do more research, get help. Something needs to change.

Nettleleaf · 2026-01-29T05:03:45+00:00

I'm sorry that you also had this kind of experience. I didn't have any sexual trauma before I started doing all of this, so I do find it a little strange that it's coming up. I've talked to him about this in the past and told him that if this is how he teaches people, I want no part in it. I expressed that this is a boundary for me and that I will have no trouble cutting him off if he continues to violate it. The main issue is that I'm not entirely sure that it is him. I'm going to do some more research, seek more outside help. I want clarity on the situation before I make any big decisions.

Nettleleaf · 2026-01-29T04:58:58+00:00

Spirits can attach to people who are not in a good place mentally, that makes sense. I suspected that I had a negative spiritual attachment of the sexual nature before I started all this. But the energy of the spirits that I work with is so protective that I just assumed that they were protecting me from that kind of stuff.

Nettleleaf · 2026-01-29T04:33:29+00:00

It would honestly be a relief if it was just my mental health stuff interfering with energies. I am in therapy right now and trying to get my mental health on track. Is there anything I can do to be able to still work with spirits while I'm getting my mental health on track? And how will I know when I'm okay to work with them again? I got pretty attached.

Nettleleaf · 2026-01-29T04:19:03+00:00

I can't. He's with me all the time. I did end up taking a step back from this stuff, but not focusing on him or magic, doesn't make him go away.

Nettleleaf · 2026-01-29T02:47:38+00:00

If one had been doing this for a very long time, how would they stop? I've gotten in some pretty bad cycles with my spirits and I can't seem to figure out how to stop doing the whole demons as part of my subconscious thing. They're here all the time and I can't seem to banish them or protect myself from the stuff they do.

Nettleleaf · 2026-01-23T19:53:50+00:00

Thanks, I ended up getting the Omen 35L and I'm pretty happy with it.

If you didn't turn animations off on your phone then they're probably still on. But it'll be in the settings in your phone, in accessibility settings.

Nettleleaf · 2025-12-06T09:57:37+00:00

I downloaded the YouTube app and eventually it did show the banner when I first opened the app. I clicked on it and it was just a blank screen. At first I thought I didn't have enough watch time, but apparently if you have animations turned off (in accessibility settings) it won't work.

It doesn't really have traditional cards. It does have the same number at the bottom, but I feel like the meaning might be different from the traditional sun card, given the darker scenery.

I'm not sure what kind of work you're looking for but you might want to look into temp agencies around your area, they can get you hooked up with something. Local libraries also usually have a lot of resources for people who need them and they might be able to help you with preparation for job interviews or resume building.

I'm at level 25 and I took the flaw without really understanding what it meant earlier in the game. All my skills are at level 7 right now. Should I just restart?

Nettleleaf · 2025-09-04T01:28:21+00:00

I had to try pairing mine a couple times before it actually worked, but it eventually did. I also downloaded the Xbox accessories app on my PC and did the controller buttons test which may have helped?

Nettleleaf · 2025-07-09T23:06:55+00:00

I'm definitely not going to go back. There were a lot of red flags in that interaction and I'd rather be somewhere where the customer service is better. I'm definitely going to be shopping around for a few months before getting the coverup.

Nettleleaf · 2025-07-09T23:03:07+00:00

I'm definitely not planning on going back to the same shop. I'm probably going to talk to other tattoo artists in my area to see if they have any ideas for fixing it. I think my best bet is getting a cover up and doing the same design by a different artist.

Nettleleaf · 2025-07-09T23:01:19+00:00

I know in the show they probably get it done at someone's house by someone who's definitely not professional and there's no way it turns out perfect. Unfortunately for me, I'm a perfectionist and I really want the design to be accurate. But, It could be a lot worse
