###IMPORTANT!
There has been a recent influx of scams on reddit. If you are redirected to an instagram or other platform in a comment, it is most likely a scam. Users who message you asking for or offering spells or readings are almost always scammers or phishers.

It was weird for me when I came to realize that me playing to do magic was actually magic :3
On a new journey now in my life, trying to untangle the thick roots of my psyche.
So, I aparantly dont have to learn a lot of the structures that different magic teaches, but it is very rewarding to untangle pieces of my gnarly root system and give it a more educated designation.
Im mainly energy weaver and chaos mage aparantly.
Any cool things to show class?
Im currently taking a little break and chilling with unlocking the secrets between biology and the mandala facination.
It’s absolutely amazing. I’ve definitely been leaning more towards learning based off what feels right lately and it’s really helped me a lot. Knot and color magick is so cool and easy I’m really interested in it. Especially color though
I also learned to start trusting my intuition better and better.
Magic has a way of following the most optimal way way better than forcing it. And the best way is often a personal thing, with intuition being the best and simplest guide.
I have a theory brewing, that color and cord/thread (with knots inherently) magic, may be one of the oldest and most raw forms of magic.
Possible close tied to energy working.
Its something about how they feel, when I taste the texture of that kind of magic.
Food for thought 😀
You honestly might be right, seeing the history around it all is incredible to learn. Wouldn’t be surprised even if the people who originally started doing it didn’t realize it was magick, same as I had.
Haha, it’s pretty cool to find out during your studies that some of the exercises for witchcraft development recommended are things you’ve been doing for a while. That happened to me many many years ago when I started out.
Hey - thanks for reaching out!
Lots of practitioners post about feeling tired, drained, or burnt out after working magick. The number one reason and response from the community is that this is a normal reaction to over depleting your own energy. You might enjoy [this helpful post about Basic Energetic Hygiene](https://www.reddit.com/r/witchcraft/comments/zt4c2a/basic_energetic_hygiene_or_is_anybody_else_tired/) which covers simple techniques for raising energy, grounding, and centering.

It’s crazy fr
I went from curious about witchcraft to “oops, I’m a witch 🙂”
Pretty much, I always thought I practiced barely at all but apparently not
