I used to think communication was the key until I realized comprehension is. You can communicate all you want with someone but if they don’t understand you, its silent chaos.
Please, don’t joke about someone’s weight, facial features, insecurities, trauma, appearances, misery and scars. Know that those things are very sensitive. Please be kind always.
Success!!! It rules!!! 🎃

“Imagination is a necessary ingredient of perception itself.”
— Immanuel Kant, Critique of Pure Reason
Seriously…Don’t. These are things that I have stupidly done, or I have seen someone else do. It would be wise to listen.
Do not give spirits your name: To many people and cultures, your name holds a lot of power. I may not know much of anything about the fae or fae witchcraft in general but I have read many witches are not a fan of giving out their name. Lots of witches go by their ‘witch’ name for this reason. I’ve even read you have to say you may call me (insert name here). But I don’t even like the idea of calling people by their name when we suspect spiritual activity. Imagine hearing a malicious entity calling you by your name. Growling it. Whispering it in your ear. I don’t even like when people here know my damn name when they’re alive. Imagine unseen forces having you, having power over you by your name. Don’t give them your damn name.
Do not challenge a spirit without knowing what you’re getting into: I stupidly called out a poltergeist in my spouses family home and I called it verbatim, “a little bitch”. Talk shit get hit still applies and I got socked in the eye. My eye was aching and burning for minutes after I said what I said. The spirit didn’t want to be seen and I was threatening it. Be prepared for anything to retaliate. Cause it just might.
Never Panic: I don’t care that you’re scared. I’ve been scared. I’ve been choked. You. Don’t. Panic. You’re going to do nothing but feed the damn thing that’s scaring you and that is no good. You won’t think straight when you panic, you won’t be rational if you panic and you can’t communicate well when you panic. It is okay to take a deep breath even right then and there. And just try and calm yourself. It’s okay to be scared, but do not panic.
Don’t be afraid to stand your ground: Let them know you’re not to be fucked with. Don’t falter to them. Speak your piece and be firm and kind. If they are posing an issue, you let them know you’re not going to stand for it. Stand your ground.
Don’t just assume the ghost you called for is there: Spirits are just as capable of lying just like you are. You ever hear your name with a voice you’re familiar with? You ever hear whispers in your ears that sounds like someone. Make sure you know you’re speaking to who you wanted to speak to.
It's sad how so many memories are never captured. It just gets lost in this eternal river of time. It just disappears with the person. The world will never get to see those beautiful memories.
2 Big Tricks In Life That They Don't Tell You About:
Be straight up whimsical. Find beauty in everything you see. Force yourself to see that beauty if you must. Just do it. Theres so many things in this world that can be found beautiful in so many different ways. Today I looked at my pen as I was noting something down and thought of it as beautiful because I have been using it for such a long time. I also made art I didnt really like but I submitted it anyway and the receiver found it so beautiful that it helped me see it as beautiful too. Everything can be beautiful and lovable if you open your eyes wide enough
Get strange. Be weird. Let small things become part of your soul. Talk about everyday things as if they were extraordinary. Indulge. Indulge a lot. In everything that makes your soul shine bright. Have some strange beliefs. Be happy , even if you might be feeling completely neutral / numb (<- A "fake it til you make it" kind of thing - though its good to keep in mind that it doesnt work for everyone all the time. Do what you think is best for you). Make things that appeal purely to you. Prioritize yourself and your own heart , soul and mind. Embarrassment / cringe is temporary and a speck of dust compared to this whole life ahead of us. Authenticity is the precedence. Be the strangest & cringest version of yourself
