My JOURNEY WITH ENERGY WORK (WITH SOME VERY RELATABLE PARTS)

-And mentions of Demons( cos, clickbait) 😁

So, I was a deeply spiritual child who talked to deities and source relentlessly. I had lots of past life flashbacks without knowing what they were and saw certain spirits very clearly as if they were you and me.. standing there.

As I grew older, I became disillusioned with religion. There were very real problems and I was being given really impotent solutions like:

Be good. Be nice to others always. People please. Turn the other cheek. Don’t stand up for yourself. Karma will get them. You do the ‘right’ thing always. Look like a good person. Dress modestly. Act like a girl. Virginity is sacred, without it you are nothing. Menstruation is dirty. Stay in your light. Just pray and God will take care of it. Do some meaningless rituals none of us understand. Accept EVERYTHING as if it’s God’s will. Except when things go wrong, then it’s your fault for being a bad person… or God has a plan

Fu***ng nobody knew what was happening and why, and everybody was just being mindlessly tossed in a tempest of discomfort, and called it God’s will.

Anyway. There were too many holes in this rhetoric for me to buy into it. So I walked away from it completely.

I decided that I’d rather be in a storm of my own making than be trapped in a cycle of “divine timing”, guesswork and vagueness.

However, the divine still reached out. In dreams, Kali came. I was drawn to the Virgin Mary at one point. I did nothing tangible about any of this at the time. (The truly divine isn’t pushy or disrespectful of free will)

But throughout all of this, I had a growing hobby of being drawn to everything society considered alternative.I read books on witchcraft, sorcery, philosophy.. I read translated versions of religious texts( mostly to understand the inconsistencies at the root)

And I bumbled through life.. with a lot of mishaps and pain. And theoretical spiritual knowledge I didnt act upon. And a whole load of other understandings that I know now that has been accumulated through my soul’s reincarnation arc.

By this stage, the modern world had diagnosed me with depression, anxiety etc... At no point, was it taken into account that I was perhaps having a very normal response to the bu****it around me 🤷‍♀️ - this is a personal experience and I’m not saying it is an universal one. But at this stage, radical responsibility was not a thing i connected with either.

That came later when I consciously made Kali a part of my life.

The medication however, was numbing and comfortable. But there was a gnaw in me that indicated that nothing felt resolved. And my life showed it. All the patterns, the events, the experiences were being shaped by my shadow- that very unconscious part of all of us that Jung talks about.

So I turned to Reiki cos it’s popular.. a socially acceptable woo woo modality and it helped. I decided to go ahead and get attuned up to Reiki Master so I could freaking solve myself.

But then I kept hitting a particular ‘spiritual’ rhetoric that there was a limit I could reach with feeling free in my life and energy before I had to accept that is how it was.

(And trying to find answers to this brought me down a path I didn’t realise i had to be on)

I accept death be it grudgingly or not. I accept that I cannot change other people in the way they run their lives. But i don’t accept ongoing bad behavior or experiences in my life, and I don’t accept a lot of other things that we are told we must.. cos.. status quo🤷‍♀️

For me, everything that feels like f**kery must be solved. If the modern world has no solutions then i’ll find an integrity-laden esoteric solution somewhere.

Some solutions do take longer than others but are solutions nevertheless.

I don’t accept a status quo that implicitly says we are powerless in the face of so MANY things. I don’t accept the fact that I have to be resigned to letting my own shadow or ‘karma’ or other unseen things control my life. All the hindus with their scriptures and interpretations of it are laughing at me rn. 🤷‍♀️

I wanted to be a co-creating conscious director.

But with all of that rar rar in my soul, i found that reiki only took me a certain distance. I was doing it every day on myself and there came a day, where.. it just stopped working on me. And yes, i was creatively using all the master symbols 😂

It worked on others that i laid hands on, but not on me. And I was livid and frustrated.

I hit a wall with that but it was handy that I was still channeling elemental Dragon frequencies- like Reiki but different-And a bit more woo woo and less ‘normalised’ in the Muggle world.

So i did some deeper layers of work.

But i still wasn’t getting the final piece of the puzzle.

So this time, I just surrendered to Kali. Like fully. I trusted her, felt her.. ( I don’t believe in blind faith/surrender to the universe or God or energies we cannot see, feel or verify- for a variety of reasons) and asked her to show me what to do.

I don’t believe in that unbalanced statement that the divine is within us so we don’t need to seek outwards. Like bro, if the divine was within us and also external, why wouldn’t we just use both to maximise our chances of stepping out of the f**kery?

Anyway- this governs the premise of the work i do.

And my trusted divine guides brought me through a number of energy work sessions with family and friends that took on a more raw, non-linear and ‘shamanic’ feel for the lack of a better word.

And this is how I ended up throwing out a f**kload of disempowering conditioning around light versus what is perceived as ‘dark’ and ended up working with the highly protective, nurturing and stabilising energy of the Divine Underworld.

(It’s also how i was initiated into the different levels and types of spirit/entity f**kery)

Not the chaotic abyss Matrix hellscape that a lot of people have been misled into perceiving as hell.

We have to at some stage confront the lies, guard rails and distortions that have been written, presented or misinterpreted with regards to what is truly divine and what isn’t… because that is where our path to sovreignty, liberation and spiritual mastery lie.

Some people genuinely have soul frequencies made of the stuff of lighter realms. I came to realise that mine generally.. isn’t-Which is why I do a lot of sacred healing with dark and divine energies that are grounded and benevolent.

There are wounded aspects of the light and wounded aspects of the dark, and then distortions around how they are presented to us which is why some of us have a knee jerk response to some of these very sacred and liberating aspects of spirituality.

It is easier to stay in the wounded light and say “stay in your light” or “God has a plan” or just “vibe high”.

But I wanted lasting results, real answers, clear and grounded directions- and a clear understanding of karma and ‘fate’ so that i wasn’t perpetually locked into ‘good girl conditioning’ and fear based programming.

And I found it after not being able to find it in the false lighty murkiness of the “love and light” only space.

So my practice has changed. I do deep shadow work with the grounded energies of the sacred underworld.

But what about the Demons, you ask? The malevolence?

That is a whole another post but if it helps, some demons can be chaotic but will leave you alone if you leave them alone- like most deities.

They are also sovereign and not cut off from source-means that they don’t take from you what you do not willingly and explicitly offer- like deities.They do not possess and they respect free will.. like deities..because they are deities within a different cultural framework.

What we should be worried about are entities and spirits that are cut off from source energy.

What we should be worried about are entities that pretend to be demons and take on the appearance of demons to possess. The divine underworld isn’t responsible this type of malevolence. Neither are they traipsing around the divine underworld seeking to cause harm. In fact, if I were to facilitate the release of one of these entities, I’d use underworld energy 🤷‍♀️

Cos.. divine.. and benevolent..

But anyway I digress. I started this post to show how things have changed for me with regards to my work.

And to also put it out there.. that I do this work to shape better or if not, the best bloody outcomes in my own personal life.

Because I, we.. all deserve it. We dont have to be the pawn piece of trauma imprints, repression, suppression, karmic loops, curses,low level entities/spirits and more sophisticated entities/spirits that we don’t even know are there.

And.. not everybody will have the same experience. For whatever valid reason, some people will deal with less of the above in their personal lives. Others will sit in varying degrees of discomfort and delusion, and will continue to have shutters pulled over their eyes about who/what is running their lives- not always because its their fault.

Some ppl can live their entire lives not having to think about this 🤷‍♀️ and it’s not because they are too high vibe or anything we’ve been told in the ‘love and light only’ space. There are many reasons why.

But look, if you’ve legitimately faced and cleared all the trauma imprints and wounding from the entire reincarnation arc your soul has been on(including your current life), and released all sophisticated and non-sophisticated attachments sitting on some of those-and there’s nothing left for spirits/entities to hook onto-good on you 😁

Ps- this ⬆️is what I refer to as Shadow work.

And this is the space I generally work in these days.

And strong spiritual hygiene, consistent and deep shadow work and practices that cultivate a high level of discernment are the basic expectations and standards I hold myself to.

Momentum, movement and puzzle pieces falling into place this week. The energy of shedding speeds up. Anchor, ground and engage in aligned action steps.

My hibiscuses hadn’t flowered for 5 months and didn’t look like they were about to. And I needed some for Kali on Deepavali night so I reached out to her playfully to give me some flowers i could use as offerings.

And I got three flowers almost immediately😁

Her presence is always abound in my 3D life so it makes me glad I chose the hand of the divine to co-create instead sitting in helpless f**kery.

As there has been a lot of that in my past.

It is not always smooth sailing as she brings ne through initiation periods for expansion and skill integration. It gets tricky when I have to ascertain if something is a manifestation of Divine will, free will, spirit manipulation or a combination.

But I suppose that is the bit that lays the groundwork for my work.

But what I will always be grateful for is the resonance in me that is the resonance of Her. And knowing that she’d kick my ass back into alignment when I fall out of it.

And it is through Her grace and the grace of other Divine Feminine Archetypes, that I’m shifting almost exclusively into offering Energy Healing sessions with Goddess frequencies.

It is all about sitting with it and healing through stillness this week- A precursor to the cosmic reset if we’ve been doing the work.

Just a picture of an audacious cat who
stole my spot- Charlotte the nemesis.

Have a great week everyone ❤️

Let’s normalise having normal responses.

It’s only problematic from an energetic pov if we stew in that frequency longer than we need to.

Goddess Durga slew an asura for being consistently problematic. So A s**u n sit the f* down,if warranted, is spiritual growth especially if you’ve had one or more lifetimes in fear-based people pleasing frequencies.

Healing is not about learning to regulate yourself amidst dishonoring experiences or behaviour. It is about gaining the strength and clarity to either disengage or alchemise. And knowing when to do which.

BEING UNGOVERNABLE

but not being a dick, is hard work I’ve noticed.

(This is a disclaimer to dispel the notion that being ungovernable means to to continue being an unchecked ass)

I’ve always had the disposition of being ungovernable even as a child much to my mother’s chagrin.

But the message coming through this week through my guides, for myself and anybody that this resonates with, is this:

Be ungovernable. Or work towards becoming ungovernable. It doesn’t happen overnight. It doesn’t happen through discounting authentic spiritual integrity.

It happens with deep awareness, deep connection to the divine that is you, and a deep connection to what is authentically divine.

I am very ungovernable these days much to my mother’s consternation( she’s a favourite part of my stories, yes😂)

Anecdote: There are about two people whose advice I seek with regards to emotional and spiritual well-being for they’ve:
1.done the work
2.have the most discerning daily protective practices and
3.have worked extensively to progressively liberate their third eye.

There are a few others whose thoughtful insight I respect

And then there are a few whose information around physical well-being or the logistics of plants-growing or cooking etc I value.

And they all do not advise. They are not pushy. Their lived experiences allow them to present it in an expository fashion, and if it resonates, I integrate it.

I like exposition from lived experiences rather than advice because it takes into consideration my sovreignty and capacity. And it is that model I like to use.

Not to mention that most of society tends to be people advising others from their stage of healing(or non-healing) without deep self awareness and reflection. I grew up in a culture like this. Worked in cultures like this.

And thus, ended up making my own rules for myself.

For me, it is normal and sovereign to:

-thoroughly assess the validity of the source trying to govern(to any degree) my thoughts, beliefs, emotions, behaviour, practices, habits and lifestyle

-ascertain if the energy projected has vampiric, distorted or divine frequencies

- take control by cueing people when I want advice and when I just want a listening ear

-politely decline or ignore the advice of people whose experiences, knowledge and understanding do not match mine. It is not an insult or put-down but an objective observation that helps add relevancy and value to my life.

-seek insight from people whose depth, breadth and knowledge matches or supercedes mine in the area I need advice in-And age is not a determining factor here.

- shut down unsolicited advice

- stop having relationships with people whose distortions wholly form their worldview, actions and ‘fun’ activities.

-disregard advice of gurus or spiritual folks who cannot present balance in their statements. Polarity or acute duality is a red flag for me.

-disregard religious teachings or philosophy that seems polarising ( though some truths can sound polarising- such as the existence of benevolence.. and the existence of malevolence- though not in the way we have been socially taught)

-question and contemplate bite-sized or snapshot reel or social media advice on anything

-not engage with reels or light language, channelings or readings from people’s whose energetic protection practices I’m unaware of or seem murky

-approach everything with my own discerning evaluation- No matter how much we admire(or fear)the author, speaker, celebrity, teacher, psychic, sorceress, family member, boss, government, official or friend…(Refer back to point 1)

- read and research to challenge or solidify truth or discuss it with someone whose emotional/mental/spiritual/physical growth and knowledge I know possesses breadth and depth.

- create practices to consult with my soul and authentic guides whilst being aware of trickster spirits and energies with misleading guidance

- not take psychic insight or advice from people whose current lives, patterns or behaviour I don’t want to emulate. And also acknowledging that we all have patterns in our history like that😂

It is hard for some to accept that their psychic, cosmic seeing and advice are filtered through their blockages and the entities they don’t know they have. There is no shame in this, just work that needs to be done. (I had swung the other way with constant doubt because of said blockages and entities, and have had to find my way back through the inner work).

I have moved away from the people in my life who have been pushy and not respecting of cues/ expressed boundaries. And it is liberating.
Distortions laid upon distortions leads to misalignment and that’s not my vibe. So I’ve normalised that too.

For my mother, I cut cords and healed some of the energy between us so now I can exist in the same space with impenetrable walls( cool witch tip 😂).

I know I have drawn comments of being arrogant and “too educated” from my own family members when I stood in the space of being ungovernable. But my discernment is my strength and the failing is theirs, for valuing their ego above someone else’s sovreignty.

So it doesn’t bother me. Sovreignty is mine and our divine right.

In a nutshell, we’ll trigger and annoy people by being ungovernable. But we won’t trigger the right people… the healed people or those that are deep in their own healing..they know and get it.

It can take work. I still have to immerse in my practices to stay ungovernable. But if we are living the life we want, that itself is proof of alignment and we can stop being fearful that we might miss out on something if we don’t take on ALL the advice coming at us from everywhere we turn.

And I did write this mostly for me.

(On an unrelated note, here’s a pic of me trying to be all cool at the zoo.. and an elephant for no real reason except that i like it)

Happy Saturn’s day everyone.

Just taking a break from my usual research reads on witchcraft, sorcery and religious texts 😃to read some juicy fiction.

Everything is energy. And what I chance upon at the library( or anywhere else really) usually tells me what I’m magnetising or what is in my field.

I love how my guides and soul impart advice through themes, historical information, plot, characters etc. Very satisfying for both the (ex)Literature teacher and witch in me.

Incidental bibliomancy has always been a huge part of my life from the moment I learnt to read.

Still love a good serial killer fiction book but that’s a social introspection or shadow work journey for another day 😁.

A fun and safe way to connect with your spiritual gurus or guides is to set an intention to receive a relevant message from an authentic divine guide, pick up a random/chosen book and read a random page or paragraph and see what it says… and voila, bibliomancy.

Today’s haul was interesting( to me) and I’m looking forward to see how it deepens my perception of whatever is happening around me atm.

Divine insight isn’t just limited to non-fiction texts. And I often find that fiction(even shows) tend to channel ancient esoteric wisdom to a certain degree as it is the nature of the world to reveal itself in narratives- be it knowingly or unknowingly

Ancient ways, ancient magic, ancient systems.. all weaved in plain sight under the guise of fiction has been a key facet of human civilisations.

Anyone else find it to be this way too?

And on that note, may we all fill our cups in whatever way feels nourishing and nurturing to us this weekend… and find ancient magic that balances and glorifies our life.

On this 5th day of navarathiri( 9 nights) of the Goddess, we pay homage to Skandamata ( the fierce protective and nurturing love of a mother) or Mahalakshmi, Goddess of of types of wealth-if you’re South Indian.

This is not the only navarathiri period of the year but just the one I’ve culturally celebrated all my life.

Her energies are abound(all the time really) if we wanted to tap into it for protection, wealth, prosperity, course-correction, to arrest negativity and so on and so forth.

If you’ve ever had a session with me, you might have felt her as She stood with us in her multiple forms to liberate us from whatever we were ready to thrust into her hands. Her grace is limitless.

All aspects of us, even the dark ones or the shadow ones.. are faces worn by the Goddess. She continues to call us to delve into deep self-awareness and fierce self-love, and understand that her(our) frequencies are synonymous with power, strength, wealth, prosperity, deep knowledge, peace and flow.

May her Shakti continue to rise in those that seek her.

Om Shakti
