hi. i have no idea where to ask for help with this.

i like to consider myself a baby witch. i give tarot readings to my friends, try out basic spells sometimes, and use the law of attraction quite frequently but i don’t practice as often as i would like due to issues with my family, mental health etc.

lately i’ve been feeling extremely strange, like some sort of negative energy is following me. i have extremely disturbing dreams and wake up in the middle of the night with strange thoughts. i have an impending sense of doom constantly and feel like i’ve been drained of motivation. i could go on and on about strange experiences but overall something just feels off.

my gut is telling me this is something related to spirituality so i don’t know where else to go to ask for help.

my grandfather also recently passed away from cancer almost two weeks ago,(around the time this feeling started for me). it might be significant that he was a very spiritual person and actively practiced buddhism. i don’t know if any of this could be related at all but my father brought me some statues my grandfather used to mediate with and it felt right for me to put them on my altar, which is the only thing i’ve really changed spirituality wise in the past two weeks.

please help. if anyone has experienced this before/has any ideas about what this could be i would greatly appreciate the advice.

thank you for reading

Happy Thanksgiving 🙂

Hi All! This was initially posted in the introduction forum, but it was brought to my attention that this may be a better place for it!


"Hi my name is Rae! I have been a member of the site for nearly a year now and have enjoyed it so much thus far!

I am a senior anthropology student from Michigan who enjoys studying spirituality. As of the last year and a half, my focus has been largely on the witchcraft and pagan communities. So, when I found this site last year, I found it such a valuable resource.

This community has inspired me to shift the focus of my research to understanding the experiences of people who are joining the witchcraft and pagan communities, especially how people find their spiritual path and identity. So now I want to open it all up to you. I would love to speak to anyone who wants to share their experiences, no matter your level of experience or length of membership on this site or as a member of the witchcraft and pagan community. If you want to share a sentence or write a full novel, I'm here to listen. It's your story and you can reveal (or not reveal) whatever you would like!

The purpose of this research is not to make a spectacle of anyone, it is just to foster a greater understanding and to allow anyone who chooses to do so to help in increasing this understanding on your own terms. Any information you choose to share will be kept strictly confidential and your identity will remain anonymous, all I ask is that you are at least 18 years old.

If you are curious at all, have any questions or concerns, want more information, have any amount of interest, or just want to chat: please feel free to comment on this post, private message me, or feel free to email me at: vandesa4@mail.gvsu.edu

Blessed be!" 

Hey bud. Do you mean actual walks, or are you talking about dreams? I walk a lot…most days 4+ miles. I take long walks to stay healthy, but it also helps to sort out what's important and what's not, in life.

Very nice! We also have a database of Spells that we are trying to get people to contribute to. It's up in the menu under Research. Welcome!
