  • Yes, I’ve been here. My therapist helped me understand that “processing my emotions” was an active thing that starts with this mindful awareness.

    To process my emotions is similar to processing raw materials into a complete product. Identify the parts, cut away what is not useful, discard it in a safe and appropriate manner, take the useful and combine them in ways that help me.

    My sadness or anxiety is usually my body trying to tell me I need something. Am I hungry? Need water? Am I lonely? What can these things tell me that is useful?

    I’d recommend getting in contact with a professional therapist about this. You’re on the right track with this. Awareness is step one!

    Def take some time to do a study on technomancy if you’re an anti-tech witch. I definitely incorporate some tech into my craft especially related to research and apps like Labyrinthos that help with learning Tarot and runes.

    But also make sure you’re being open minded if another witch tells you their practice is harmed by technology. That’s a very real situation with modern big tech and mindfulness being sometimes completely opposite.

    There’s a balance, as always. Find your Temperance.

    It has been a strange thing to now be searching for more specific books than what I have. My shelf is filled with general witchcraft and starter stuff, encyclopedias, and overview books on the sabbaths.

    Now I’m super interested whenever I can find books about this minutiae of spell craft, or histories of the use of specific components.
