Men Are Fucking Destructive And Women Allow It

 

Men have created their wars to continue to hoard resources on this planet for centuries. Resources that the planet has more than enough to give since the dawn of time.

Men have created weapon after weapon, one more proficient than the next in killing. Killing to the point it can take out giant droves of populations with the flip of a switch. Weapons that got better at detatching themselves from seeing their "enemy" die before their eyes. Weapons that no long shot one bullet at a time, but now bullets that can rip through flesh till the face is not recognizable. Guns, bombs, disease, and famine. Guns offered without the slight idea of what "really" they will be used for, whether it to make the process of robbing, raping, or killing easier for the holder. Guns given without a second thought to kill innocent children in classrooms, teens in school hallways, or a civilian in a war torn country. Bombs for the countries, bombs for the towns, and bombs for anyone. Releasing engineered diseases in the air, gasses to melt the flesh and burn out the eyes, toxicity for the very air they can breathe.

Men have dedicated entire armies for killing, pillaging, and raping. To take by force what is "theirs", to silence, and to put their knee on anyone considered "other" or a "threat" to the "order".

Men have pumped us full with artificial drugs that numb our senses and make us captive in our own bodies. Synthetic drugs tainted from the purity of the original plant, and once taken to your lips makes you addicted. Makes you want to ruin your body by making you a slave to their fake drugs, a slave to the fake feeling, and a slave to the need to ravage your body and your mind. Addiction, pills, needles, and all of that toxic jazz.

Men slaughter this Earth left and right, and sing about the distant stars they will soon inhabit and make just as dead as this planet they are already on. They talk about it and talk about it like some silent mantra of how they will conquer yet another distant land and make it a dead slave like this Earth. Watch them chop down the trees, chop them all down till you can't breathe. Watch them shoot those animals for fun and not for food or necessity, watch them shoot them all down till they are but a memory and a word in a book. Watch them run down the forests for their new malls and condos, to get more green in their pocket instead of on their planet to ensure they can actually exist. Watch them cut down the branches of a tree, strip and pick and tear till there's no fruit to be given, no animals to climb it, and nothing for you to grip at anymore. Men spray their pesticide because "it keeps the bugs away" or because they don't want you touching these medicinal plants and want you to take these synthetic fucks in your system instead.

Men give you the stupid box- or should I say the tv- not to make you feel connected to the world at large, but to keep you stupid and afraid. Flick through the channels, see those Housewives being dysfunctional and emotionally toxic to other women? SO FUNNY! See these news channels talking about rape, your prices sky rocketing, people getting gunned down, acts of violence and acts of violation, your free will being tainted? SO FUN! Doesn't it all make you want to go outside and live? To think the world is a safe place, that people are good, that your country isn't dying before your eyes, that the end of the world isn't here, that you can trust, that you won't get bashed in your head once you leave your house? DOUBTFUL!

Hell, let's even give them more technology and apps to make them feel insecure? To make them sell their soul and their attention and make them EVEN MORE dead than they already are!

Men abuse and use, take and destroy- that doesn't need any more of an explanation, especially if you are a woman and fear walking down the street alone at just past 6 pm.

Men burn the world at their feet.

They do it every fucking day.

And we let them.

Women have allowed men to destroy, kill, and annihilate everything since they walked onto the scene the 1000 of years after we came here.

Why?

Why do we let them?

Why do we let our creation run so rouge?

What happened?

Oh, I know

Women go tired of being the gods, and thought having a little "vacation" would be fun.

Women got tired of the power and the responsibility.

Now look where we are at.

Now what?

More Than a Damn Bubble Bath: The Journey of Self Care

The topic of self-care is one that I feel is spoken of often, but is spoken in a tone of “it is easy, just do it!”

But that’s the thing about it, self-care isn’t a random chore you do out of the blue, a quick fix, or simply drawing a bath. Self-care is a journey of acceptance, compassion, and the uprooting of damaging beliefs.

I am a woman, so I’m going to tackle this from my perspective of being a woman, being seasoned into the circle of womanhood, and how I move through the world as a woman with the anatomy of a female.

Being a woman is a brilliant experience, but with that experience comes a multitude of lies that we are conditioned with, things we are told are appropriate, that we “have to” do, and feelings we choke down our throat because “a lady shouldn’t say that”.

With this brainwashing we receive from our parents, peers, society, and the world at large, we develop terrible habits.

As a woman, you are conditioned to always be in the sacrifice seat. You are expected to give, give, give, and give without anything but a crumb in return. And you are expected to like it, and not fix your mouth another way about it.

You experience it every single day. You have to cook dinner even when you are tired, do the laundry otherwise it won’t ever get done, put on makeup even though you are tired because you always have to look your best, you have to show up to work to give 100% even though your menstrual cramps are leaving you in the fetal position, you have to compete and fight for your position at work even though it makes you emotionally uncomfortable, don’t eat too much cause goodness forbid you don’t look like those cut and pasted photoshoped images society puts on a pedestal, you cannot speak about how you love sex and how it makes you feel good because “girls shouldn’t talk that way”, you cannot speak your mind and be confident in yourself because you are a “conceited bitch who thinks she knows everything” and goodness forbid if you “scare” off the boys, you have to watch and take care of your siblings even though you had plans that you had to cancel on because “good daughters take care of the family and put them first no matter what”, that you have to be there emotionally for your friend even though she is never anywhere to be found when something is hurting you or makes you feel upset, and the list can and will go on and on.

Why is it that the list goes on and on?

Why is it that women are just expected to give and give till there is nothing left? Till their inner well is dryer than the Sahara Dessert with nothing left for themselves?

There’s more than enough reasons and culprits why. You can see it in the systems of patriarchy, family structures, racial traditions, religious traditions, group think, peer pressure, and many more.

That’s why, when I see articles online or hear people talking about “self-care” I know they do not speak the whole truth and what it truly requires to have self-love and care for your person.

Self-care and self-love includes actions, but it is a lot bigger than that.

I recently started doing Shadow Work, which is the integration or acceptance of those aspects of yourself that you were taught were unacceptable, wrong, or not worth being loved by family and other groups when growing up, and it has revealed a lot. Doing shadow work is no easy task, it forces you to realize that you are not perfect, that you have to make space and compassion for yourself to properly heal, to face your traumas and emotional triggers head on, remove the internal blockages, and to be present with all of those heavy emotions that the world at large tells you to not look at and “let go”.

Shadow work forces you to uproot every tinge of pain, unresolved events that hurt you, relationships that killed you inside, and to take a strong hard look at the actions you commit against yourself every day. This work connects you back, it integrates all of those small parts you carved out of the beauty of your whole self just for a little bit of love or acceptance…and it teaches you that it is okay, that you are okay, and that everything you felt and feel is okay with reasons why you did it. I cannot begin to say how scary it is to peer inside of yourself, but how beautiful it is to feel that compassion and acceptance for yourself. If you are interested in more content about Shadow Work and where to begin if you are interested, these women are phenomenal when it comes to discussing and giving tips on how to tackle shadow work:

Kelly-Ann Maddox, who specializes in Shadow Work and is absolutely phenomenal with the way she breaks it down and processes for going through it with tricks, tips, and even tarot spreads. This is a link to the first video in a playlist of hers, she’s absolutely divine:

Shadow Work Playlist

Teal Swan, is a spiritual teacher and intuitive who provides an analysis of Shadow Work as well, and also processes on how to emotionally heal yourself, learn acceptance, and stepping into yourself and the authentic self. Here are 3 of her videos covering shadow work, and you can check out her other videos on her channel for tips on healing emotionally:

What is Shadow Work?

Diving Deep (Shadow Work)

Shadow Work vs. Positive Focus

Journeying into self-care and love is no easy task. It requires you to stop punishing yourself, to stop giving till you are dried out, and to stop being the sacrifice for everyone around you. You must learn to say “no”, to say “not today”, to say “fuck off”, and to ultimately say “no, I come first”.

Just being able to say “no” as a woman feels difficult, mostly because it is you setting up boundaries, setting rules, and being strong enough to vocalize what displeases you. Women are taught right out of the womb to do what deep down displeases them, which is why you must practice the life style of self-love and care. Yes, self-love and care is a lifestyle, because every single day you must practice it, train yourself not to punish or make yourself suffer, and make small but sure strides to self-acceptance.

Believe me, I wish it was easy, but working on yourself isn’t. It is a journey that requires your patience, compassion, and for you to show up for yourself when no one else will.

Now, I wouldn’t feel right just talking about this, without providing solutions to the problem I see.

Self-love and self-care is vital for you to bloom in this dimension as a human being in this life rotation, it shows that you have the divine capacity for turning the love you have outward, inward. I suggest, as an exercise in this, to take a mirror. It can be any type of mirror, whatever is accessible to you, and stare straight into the mirror, looking into your eyes. Look deep into your eyes, don’t look away. Be present with yourself, fall into your eyes, making sure you breathe in deep down to your stomach filling it with air through your nostrils, then exhaling through your mouth. Be present. Then, after a couple of moments gazing and breathing, state 1 self-punishing, damaging, or hurtful behavior you have towards yourself. This could be any of the ones I previously listed, or any moments when you felt you gave so much with nothing in return. State that instance 3 times to yourself in the mirror, while looking into your eyes. Then ask yourself why you do it.

Whenever you feel you haven’t gotten to the root of that action, keep asking yourself why. Always dig deeper than before. Then, while still gazing into your eyes, ask yourself, what would make you feel better than doing that harmful action, what would make you feel good instead of punishing yourself or giving too much. Jot down the answer, or repeat the answer 3 times to yourself while gazing in your eyes in the mirror. Breathe deep, then break the gaze.

Now, make conscious physical steps in the direction of that answer you told yourself, of what would make you feel better. These steps can be small, or they can be direct and quick. As long as you make steps forward, you are on the right track.

I suggest, also embarking or researching more on shadow work. Shadow work will help you work through internal problems of non-acceptance and shame. Look at articles, websites, take out books, buy books, think it over, watch videos, and ultimately get the idea in your mind.

Next, I suggest carving out time for yourself. Being able to sit in your own silence is a very powerful thing. You can think your own thoughts, say what you want without censorship, and meditate on what you want for yourself. This doesn’t have to be a lot of time, this can be 10 minutes if that’s all you have or time before bed.

Finally, be compassionate to yourself. Most often, people tend to treat strangers on the street better than they treat themselves. We have to learn to direct that inward. We have to look at ourselves as the friend, the lover, or the new person we ran into. Be patient with yourself, be understanding towards yourself, and give yourself time to cry or feel vulnerable. These moments of emotion are not a time for you to berate yourself. Be kind and cradle yourself instead.

I hope this helped, and I send you much love.

Real from the Fake: Psychics and Readers

For my birthday, I decided to go to a Psychic. I wanted to go because I haven’t got a reading in years, and part of me wanted to know if the messages would be the same as last time. Also, I just really wanted to do something fun and up my alley for my birthday.

I drove over to a new local psychic shop, and when I went in the setting was very light and welcoming. However, when the young psychic began the reading is when everything became a tad not so good. 

Now, I’m not addressing those who are truly versed in their art. Psychics, tarot readers, mediums, and those who offer true valuable services to aid others. That should be apparent.

But, when you study the tarot and palmistry, and watch as someone who builds their business off of those talents proceed to butcher the arts. I kind of have a bone to pick.

Before she even proceeded to begin, I told her I’d pay for the full package: tarot card reading, palmistry reading, and psychic reading. Then, when she decided to ask if I’ve done any of this before, I told her the truth. I told her I studied palmistry and tarot, and that I’ve got a reading before years ago.

Then, she proceeded to text on her cellphone once it went off during our session, told me to hold my dominant hand open without analyzing it, shuffled the tarot cards, and placed all 78 cards of the tarot deck down on top of each other without the use of a spread.

I don’t care about the money, $100 is nothing for me to worry about, especially since money is energy that will come back to you when you drop resistance.  But, when I sit and think about the amount of hours, months, and years it took me to study tarot or the time it takes me fuddling between my palmistry book, stretching my hand to exhaustion, and how beautiful the art of these gifts I felt a silent rage in me.

People like this taint the beauty of the spiritual, and give those who dedicate their lives and time a bad name.

You hear and see it often.

Someone taking interest in the spiritual arts and debating getting a reading, and then that one person says something along the lines of “they just take your money, they don’t really see anything, they’re fake, or they’re taking advantage of you”. Heck, you even see it on TV too.

It really pisses me off, especially since this woman had a full blown store. I know so many people involved in the spiritual or occult who would kill to have their own shop where they can spread their message and heal the world. 

However, it doesn’t do much to complain unless solutions are present to combat the problem.

I recommend, when going to a reader of any kind, do a little research. Research so you go in knowing what the person will be doing, the process, what it is you will be getting done, and ask questions. Begin by researching the place you will be going to, go onto Google, and check out the reviews. If there are no reviews, then the store still might be new and starting. Then, do some research on what service you will be getting done. If palmistry, watch a little video on YouTube about certain lines, and what they mean. If tarot reading, search the web for tarot spreads, and find out what the major and minor arcana cards mean. When you go into the store, talk to the person who will be reading you, and do some light conversation. Ask how long they have been doing it for, ask them how they will lead you through the process, and be observant and open to the experience. 

Research before going to a psychic’s store, it will pay off. That’s pretty much where I went wrong. I got so excited about one positive review 20 minutes before going and neglected to see the other reviews and overall ratings and comments.

Psychics and Readers provide a valuable service to this world, they give us healing by connecting us to the other side or the unseen so we can make valuable changes in our lives for progression. They are valuable to the ascension process of this physical plane and the beings that inhabit it. Their gifts are glorious and wonderful, sacred and powerful. 

Ever heard of the Oracle of Delphi? 

Yes, they are that level important in this world. Thus, I consider their art sacred and special.

However, let’s be honest, there are people out there who take advantage of those seeking guidance and put on the label to exploit for negative gain. 

It is important that we raise up the true mystics so they can shine their knowledge on those who need it, and that we steer clear of those who are false. 

Yet, it is important that we realize that not all mystics are the same. They move and work in different ways, but it is evident, just as I came to realize, that you can spot the fakes right away.

Research is power, use it and take it seriously before visiting a Psychic or Reader. Really think it over, and do your due diligence.

Enjoy your readings!

Spell Writing 101: Speaking Your Desires Into Existence

“Say what you mean, and mean what you say.”

My mom says it, my grandmother said it, and when writing spells it is essential.

The words in a spell isn’t mindless banter, clever rhymes, or empty words spoken into some random void into the middle of nowhere.

Words are power, and when you are a witch, words are twice as strong.

There’s a sense of bending to your will when forming sounds into words with the twist of your tongue. Shifting vibrations into spoken phrases, and fixing your lips to physical communication sprung from your mind.

That’s all it is.

Words are your thoughts made physical here in this realm.

Your mind is a link to a different level of reality with its’ limitless keys and doors, and when you speak, you thrust your thoughts forward into the physical 3^rd dimension.

I cannot begin to list off what I have achieved by speaking what I desired into existence, a good portion without having to cast a spell, anointing candles, or casting a circle.

To write a powerful spell, the great thing is, it is super simple. You just have to “say what you mean, and mean what you say”.

You must speak your spell as if it is already done, as you already have it, and without the words “need, want, please” or any form of begging or asking.

To be a witch, you do not ask, you take.

You make all in this world yours.

Of course, if you are working with deities, spirits, or elementals, you’d do well to communicate with them in the air of respect and reverence they rightfully deserve.

But, eliminate all forms of neediness in your words.

 Here is an example:

 

You are about to cast a spell for money, here is an effective line:

“$100 is in my pocket, $100 is mine, and I spent it on (insert what money will be used for)”

See? 

For a powerful spell you call what you desire into existence, by stating it is already done. To make it even more powerful, you visualize in your mind that you are doing, using, or interacting with what you desire. Such as, you are doing a love spell, so you would visualize or imagine being kissed and feeling their lips on yours, being hugged and the warmth of their body on yours, or with the man you desire. 

Words must all be in future tense or already done phrases, because the mind itself does not comprehend time. Your mind does not know the difference between right now, different dimensions, time as people describe it, or reality. That is why your mind is so cosmic when it comes to pulling what you desire forward, because it has no limits besides what you accept.

You must have noticed whenever you watch a witch movie, the witch always happens to rhyme as she speaks her spells. Well, you do not have to do that! But you can if you like. I enjoy making my words rhyme because when I go to speak my spell out again (I speak my spell 3 times, because 3 is a powerful number in the craft), it helps me to remember so I don’t have to look at my grimoire the whole time. If you need help rhyming, a useful site I use is Rhymezone.com and be sure to use a Thesaurus to change up the words in your spells to make it have “spice” if you wish.

Now, just to cover yourself when doing money spells of a large amount, hexes, curses, or jinxs, be sure to be super specific. Be sure to say you don’t want people dying or getting hurt for you to receive the large amount of money, and if you do not want people to be killed during your baneful magick, be sure to speak that in your spell. Be specific!

Enjoy your spell writing, and remember: say what you mean, and mean what you say.
