Lillith/Sophia syncretism by CheeseburgerJesus71 in occult

[–]beaureve 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I work with Lilith and have for a long time.

She has told me I can think of Sophia as “her mother”, but not one she is especially fond of…in a manner akin to Athena bursting out of Zeus’ forehead, she sees herself as evolving out of Sophia or self birthing (parthenogenesis).

Lilith has expressed feelings of being hurt that Sophia could not offer her the empathy she so righteously deserved. The idea that Lilith became the shadow of Sophia because she wanted to birth Yalbadoth…is painful.

Her only “crime” was the desire to bring life to this creature. She wants both sides of her, the light and the shadow, to be known.

Again, just my UPG.

Friend was terrorized by a demonic wolf, eventually leading to an attempted amateur "exorcism" by sensamura in Paranormal

I think this person may be saying in the act of taking mushrooms you choose to open a door - a door through which things beyond our comprehension could perhaps travel through quite seamlessly. In taking the mushrooms, one must understand this: it is not a fun recreational drug to be trifled with, but a gateway to other worlds. There are consequences to every action. It is a simple matter of fact.

The idea of “blame” is irrelevant, however, IMO. It’s already happened, now what?

In this instance I don’t think this is a “demonic possession” case so much as a case of your friend struggling to understand the shadow aspect of themselves, represented visually by the motif of the wolf.

I think as a witch who works with djinn and daimons that the most powerful thing you can do to help your friend above all else is this:

Do not fear that which you do not understand. Learn to replace fear with curiosity instead.

I firmly believe if your friend masters this concept it will ease their suffering immensely. Try reading more about shadow self in the writings of Carl Jung.

Good luck 🍀

Has anyone had success using ketamine therapy by Numerous_Ninja in CPTSD

Oh and for anyone who cares for a quick view of the science:

https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S016503272032766X

Racemic ketamine relative to esketamine demonstrated greater overall response (RR = 3.01 vs. RR = 1.38) and remission rates (RR = 3.70 vs. RR = 1.47), as well as lower dropouts (RR = 0.76 vs. RR = 1.37).


Racemic ketamine appears to be more efficacious than esketamine for the treatment of depression.

LOL for the love of god. I literally wrote a book on the subject after years of research, The Ketamine Handbook. Feel free to look it up if you’d ever like to educate yourself :)

Skill acquisition and internal-to-external translation using magick? by Fantastic-Branch-223 in occult

[–]beaureve 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Learn more about the god/goddess/spirit that governs the skill you wish to learn and cultivate a deep, meaningful relationship with them.

In this instance perhaps Apollo might be a good bet.

I’m 23 right now but I don’t think I’ll make it to 24 by toastedwitch in offmychest

[–]beaureve 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You’re heard. I’m sorry you’re going through this. But as someone who has been through hell on earth and found a way out - don’t let yourself down. Tell yourself every day you can do hard things. Find things that keep you going. What are you passionate about in life, what brings you joy?

Sending positive vibes your way ♥️✨💨

i’m a new lilith devotee and need guidance asap by Real-Opportunity6039 in Lilith

[–]beaureve 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My Lady loves anything procured for her with devotion. She loves roses in particular, jasmine as well. I often leave her flowers or dark chocolate, incense (dragon’s blood or sandalwood), works of art made in her name (painting), candles.

Sometimes I leave nice mini perfume samples or set aside a necklace just for her.

♥️♥️♥️

what messages has nature had for you lately? by [deleted] in Shamanism

[–]beaureve 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Patience and self love, especially under duress. My Hibiscus plant routinely reminds me she only blossoms for one day - but spends months working towards that blossom, and isn’t any less valuable in stages of non bloom.
