Too powerful????

[Lakeraven84]

Help me. I am 32 yrs old been studying metaphysics, astrology and stuff since I was 16. Began practicing witchcraft and initiated alone with Hecate age 28. Now all my spells and thoughts are manifesting super rapidly. I have now surpassed all the ones who I used to learn from. This is kinda scary. There is no one above me in ability to tell me I'm normal and this is ok. My thoughts alone have caused havoc once or twice in recent months. I had no idea I'd become this powerful. Tonight I did a banishing spell on my friends abusive boyfriend. And before it was even finished he was in jail. I have no one I can talk to who understands. Help me...

Sometimes you're just nudging things along that would have happened anyway. You're part of what's happening, but not the entire cause. It seems like it's happening because of you, but that's because you have a heightened awareness. And now I know why I dreamed about you wanting help.

Oh wow really? That's crazy! This is getting so real. Then I must be constantly picking up on stuff and then nudging it along. I don't know.... but like I needed the Necronomicon and Matrix movies and they manifested within a week. And there are no witchcraft stores or bookstores in my small town. So that is quite odd. And I have more that I don't feel comfortable sharing on a public post. All it was was my thoughts emotions no spell and as I always say.... oopsy daisy....

Some might consider these the only important components of a spellwork, really. Implements, costumes, rituals and poetically-written spells are merely tools, not magic in themselves. Some might say magic is really in the intention, the "thoughts emotions." You have been using things in your spellworking, since "thoughts are things," as they say. Some might say you had all you needed to manifest, right there. You worked with a goddess for four years to acquire manifestation skills. Now you've gotten them, and yet you're dismayed. I would hate to be a goddess --that would annoy me to no end, haha. Man, good thing I'm a mortal.

It's odd that when we don't get what we ask for, or when we have to struggle and overcome many hurdles to get it, we're OK with that, that's "normal." Yet, when we do get what we ask for, when the Universe directly responds to our intention, we panic and think something's wrong. I've done that before, lol. I think we are not accustomed to our own power, don't know how to handle it. We're so conditioned by so many societal factors, I think, to feel and expect a "normal," baseline of powerlessness in our lives. But this is a matter of unfortunate conditioning, I think. Witchcraft ("thoughts emotions") shifts the power-less paradigm, into a power-full one, Less versus Full.

Full feels strange when you're used to Less, just as Rich might feel strange when you're used to Poor, or Healthy might feel strange when you're used to being Sick. It's a matter of shifting the paradigm.

...let it not become a matter of a heightened ego. I could assure you that as powerful as you're feeling right now, there are many who are much, much more powerful than you (unfortunately, not always on the good side of the tracks). Try to accept "where you're at" right now in terms of magic, but at the same time don't be like...remember that movie Bruce Almighty, where Jim Carey walked around "being God?" You don't want to be turning on the news and proclaiming, "Yes. I'm so powerful that I single-handedly ended that war in that foreign country there. It ended because I willed it so!" You might start losing friends, lol. So, try to stay humble, accept that you got what you asked Hecate for, and embrace your uniqueness.

To whom much is given, much is due, so just be careful of your thoughts and expressed intentions, that's all. If you're "always" saying "oopsy daisy" that tells me that your teachers haven't been all that good, and either they or you weren't focusing on the right things, etc. Learn how to check yourself. Maybe instead of only focusing on your own needs, try to use your power to heal the world in little ways that will add up, in time. The planet needs us right now, so if you feel that you are powerful, then help Her heal. You know, on second thought, yeah, turn on the TV and end some wars! Why not. And clean up some pollution, maybe end some poverty. It wouldn't hurt to will some intention toward these things.

That's actually a good idea, now that I think about it. Daily we should all be focusing our "thoughts emotions" in positive, self-less ways to help our planet.

Thanks, and I hope something of this you find helpful. The best.
