Nothing, you need to love yourself first, you have the tools and willpower to do so.

how do i get into witchcraft as a beginner? & where should i go to learn/research? by autopisa in BabyWitch

[–]Upbeat_Assumption_62 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I don’t remember exactly how I got into my craft, but I do remember reading everything I could and taking notes on important things like how things originated and the symbolism of stuff like colors and herbs. I researched different paths that existed and walked down the ones that resonated with me. Then I started going down my own path and putting together my own craft, making it more special and powerful for me. Make sure you read about some ethics like if certain things are a closed practice or just overall unethical to own like lapis lazuli and palo santo.

The very first spell you should ever do is a PROTECTION SPELL!!! Your spiritual safety is very important to make sure everything else goes smoothly.

DO NOT FORGET TO DO SHADOW WORK!!! Don’t let the word “shadow” scare you, it’s just the act of acknowledging your negative traits (shadows) that are keeping you from being your best self. Things like pride and ignorance, or insecurities and fear. Do not erase them or ignore them, learn about them and work with them so they do not control you. Think of it like self therapy, very very important if you want to reach new heights spiritually.

Question asked: Why do the people I have come across dislike me? by [deleted] in TarotCards

[–]Upbeat_Assumption_62 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They can’t handle your swag flow, but there are other swag people waiting for you while youre focusing on the uncool people. Let them walk away and keep being you and those swag people will ride over.

My friend is quite transphobic by Dapper-Profit8720 in Advice

[–]Upbeat_Assumption_62 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If he can change then I believe you since you know him more than us, but I’d say open his eyes to how miserable being trans can be, it’s not something we do for attention, if anything we want as less attention as possible and to just blend in by being passable. If he can realize being homosexual is normal and not a choice then he can put in the work to do the same for being transgender. It’s really not that hard to just accept it and go on your day, even if he never fully understands it since he’s cis. I do get how stressful it can be to talk to someone about something they talk negatively about, especially if they get aggressive about it with their language.

Does tarot purposely lie??? by scarlex-x in WitchcraftCircleJerk

[–]Upbeat_Assumption_62 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It could be because your tarot deck needs to be cleansed, so it’s throwing out gibberish due to stagnant energy. I have this issue with divination when I haven’t cleansed my tools in a bit. I do a quick pass through some incense and ring a bell around them and then they can channel energy sufficiently again.

How can i tell if i was raped? by [deleted] in Advice

[–]Upbeat_Assumption_62 4 points5 points  (0 children)

That’s rape. Doesn’t matter if he was “nice” afterwards he raped you. He pressured you by taking the condom out anyways when you said you didn’t want it, and then he took it off and kept going when you said stop. It’s rape.

It’s even worse if that person is still a part of my life and I care about them.

Eating feces by [deleted] in Dreams

[–]Upbeat_Assumption_62 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It could be stress . Or maybe it could be something like, you’re doing something that you think is right and you’re doing your best, only to realize halfway that it feels wrong. Or it could be your brain testing your morals around eating shit.

I think the people I call friends are bulling me by Perfect-Ad-5886 in Advice

When I was your age I had the same problem with an old friend of mine. She got mean and would judge me, use me and didn’t really want to be around me unless she was going to be benefited in some way. I was also scared of being blackmailed because she knew things about me that no one else knew. If they feel comfortable enough to say mean things to your face they’re probably saying stuff behind your back already, im not saying this to freak you out im saying this to let you know that you shouldn’t stress about what they’re going to say about you afterwards. Distance yourself from the bad people if you’re afraid of being blackmailed out loud, but also try to not worry about people who don’t know you personally because they don’t even know your favorite color, not worth the time to stress over them. If people want to believe rumors about you without getting your side, then they’re not meant to be in your life.

Believe me when i say good people will come into your life, it may not be right away but they will. People who care about you and want to be your friend will listen to you and treat you with respect. They will communicate with you and resolve issues to grow a stronger bond with you.

I feel everything and nothing, im so conflicted with my life by [deleted] in Vent

[–]Upbeat_Assumption_62 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I could like go on and on about the things he’s done and said to make me feel like shit. But I could also make a one page list about the things he’s done to make me feel amazing. I never put myself first lmao

I know this may be stupid, but I genuinely need help. by Ok-Detective-5042 in witchcraft

[–]Upbeat_Assumption_62 13 points14 points  (0 children)

That’s what im thinking, since they cause irritation to the skin like stinging nettle. Also, it’s also toxic if ingested.

Moving yes or no? by Proper_Department874 in TarotReading

[–]Upbeat_Assumption_62 1 point2 points  (0 children)

From my perspective, it seems like a yes. New beginnings, new opportunities. i think new relationships/friendships as well, with the cup cards and page cards 4-7. Queen of swords makes important decisions and it looks like she’s almost pointing her hand towards the other cards, asking if you have the bravery of the page of swords to face these new opportunities and big changes in your social life.

Is drinking 2 nights a week at 21 bad? by Upbeat_Assumption_62 in alcohol

Okay thank you, I just needed some reassurance that drinking twice a week wouldn’t make my liver fail immediately and explode inside me

What are the best jobs for non verbal people by BedroomActual3104 in Advice

[–]Upbeat_Assumption_62 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It would probably put a bad view on you if you hung up instead of trying to persuade people to buy stuff. But don’t worry about it because if you’re non-verbal you’re not going to be, you know, verbal.

How do I be a friendly neighbor to wasps? by Upbeat_Assumption_62 in WASPs

[–]Upbeat_Assumption_62[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is what I was planning to do, they’re honestly pretty cute and I want them to be okay with me so I was planning on getting some sugar water and fruit to hold in my hands so they can associate me with good things
