131. Demystifying Spells

When people hear about spells, they are automatically quite scared. And I get it. Not only has pop culture got us quite afraid of spells (as in all of these situations, these words typically quickly actualize in a very scary, painful, or unfortunate event or series of events), but the victim of this spell never sees it coming. On top of that, they are typically incredibly helpless in regard to the energy that has taken over them.

Well, I have some good news and bad news. The bad news is that yes, spells are real, but the good news is that you can proactively intuit “bad” energy coming toward you or for you, and you do have power in regard to the energy that you are processing in this lifetime.

If we take a step back and think about spells, we must understand that the spiritual world is quite like the physical world. So in essence, let’s pretend that someone who casts a spell on you is like someone who throws a punch at you. From the perspective noted above, this would mean that you have absolutely 0 defenses. Yes, it’s true that in some instances you may be slightly blindsided, but at the end of the day, you can always defend yourself. In the physical world, the stronger you are, the more able you will be to defend yourself. And the same goes for spiritual. The more spiritually aligned you are, and the higher your vibration, the easier it will be to reject (or transmute) this type of negative energy.

So what exactly is a spell? Well, quite frankly, it’s just an intention. We consider spells to be some type of sorcery with words unknown to us, but the reality is, we are casting “spells” all the time without even knowing it. If we set any type of intention, that’s a spell. The only real difference between this and what would be considered a proper spell is that, oftentimes, spells bring in elements of physical reality. So for example, someone may state an intention over and over again (as words do have energetic power), or a particular set of words, as well as pairing it with, say, lighting a candle, or using certain types of herbs. The difference is that since everything in our physical world has an energetic signature, some are quite simply more powerful when it comes to delivering results. But we can do this on our own, as well, with enough fortitude and repetition. Over time, witches have become quite good at understanding what is most effective, and therefore these specific spells continue to be passed down. Consider that every physical manifestation has an overarching theme. So let’s take a candle. A flame represents renewal and rebirth, so this may be paired with starting something new in regard to a conceptual intention. And this continues to go on and on with every single object.

I liken it to being prepared for a big game. If you simply say that you’re going to win a game, that’s a great headspace and intention to be in. But what about your most effective pair of shoes, or the best basketball you have? And what if you do more, such as refine your diet or meditate, in order to prepare. All of these things are energetically positioning you to have a better outcome. It’s the exact same thing with spells. Spells and our physical reality go hand in hand. Hypothetically, if I wanted to create a spell using any particular object I find, I can. With enough emphasis on my thoughts, feelings, and emotions, who knows, this could be more effective than traditional spells. It’s also worth noting that although spells have been tried and true, energy changes over time. For example, perhaps certain flowers which were traditionally used in spells held an incredibly strong energetic vibration in the past. But as our world evolves, energy regarding different items changes. This may not be as effective anymore.

So to sum up, you do not need to know spells to make them. It’s all about intention, and however you feel it’s right to create and set this intention. You’ll want to make sure that if you get into “spell making”, you want to keep it as high of a vibration as possible. In other words, your intentions should be out of love, vs. demand or force. Or any negativity. Nothing good ever comes out of setting negative intentions. You’re just asking for that karma to come back to you. Trust me, it’s not worth it.

So how do you protect yourself from spells? It’s kind of complicated. Being incredibly aware of your energetic state (being in tune with your thoughts, feelings, emotions, and physical body) is the first step. I think that this somewhat goes hand in hand with being at a high vibration, or in other words, just taking care of yourself as well as you possibly can. But part of this awareness is knowing and understanding when you’re going through periods of energetic shift, and knowing what a negative presence in your life is. The likelihood is that we are all dealing with negative energy right now, and may be unaware of it. We may be suffering from anxiety, depression, misalignment in regards to our wants, feelings, desires, or life purpose. These are all “blockages” that we have from living our best, and most authentic life. Knowing that we are worthy of love, and that we can overcome self-doubt and achieve our dreams, is really important to being our best spiritual self. Overcoming our fears, as well. When we are in a negative energetic state, this negative energy sort of becomes our reality. We think that there’s no way out. That everyone is out to get us, that there are no options, or that there’s no good in the world. But it’s really just a projection of our own reality. Our reality can shift and change so incredibly fast. And I truly believe that intention setting is part of this. By proactively seeking out new opportunities and working toward being your best self, you can know and understand intuitively what is working for you, and what is serving you. And ultimately, as you continue to grow, you must let go of what is not. Throughout this process, you’ll start to refine what is authentic to you (although it may continue to change). As a result, you will know what is negative for you. And you’ll start to become more apt to removing this negative energy, because you realize that it’s not you. It’s just energy. You are incredibly old, brilliant, and beautiful. And anything in your life, or any feelings that you have against this, are simply a false reality created by some type of negative energy. Likely from the outside world or from a past life, which is just plaguing you. It no longer needs to be a part of you, and I ask that you give yourself permission to let it go. Sometimes this can be a relatively easy process through acknowledgment and acceptance, but oftentimes we must seek out new experiences and opportunities that are more positive related to the particular concept and theme. So for example, if you have trauma with relationships, consider what you can safely do to improve your relationship with yourself, as well as others. Seek out positive experiences versus rejecting or avoiding them altogether. This allows this negative energy to essentially fester and warp our reality moving forward. It also serves to work against us due to the law of attraction.

The most important thing is to not be afraid if you feel or know that a spell has been cast on you. There are ways to remove it and not be plagued by it. By “giving in” to feeling that you are a victim without any power, you ultimately land in a self-fulfilling prophecy. Do not allow fear to eat you alive. You can absolutely overcome not only a single spell, but ultimately anything and everything in this lifetime. Although the “end result” may be precisely as you envisioned it, we are not intended to be victims of suffering in this lifetime. Continue to proactively strengthen your “spiritual defenses” in the meantime, so that you are less susceptible to negative energy in general.
