Read those problematic witchcraft books, read those Wiccan books that people don't agree with, read those books that people can't stand. Why? So you can read them for yourself! That way you can understand why people feel the way they feel about certain authors and books. And also, you can process how you feel about them. To also take that a step further, read the books everyone raves about. I have books that I like, and I have books that I got half way through, and I haven't touched since. And that includes books that some people truly like.
Another example of this action is when I went to church with Jehovah's Witnesses. Jehovah's Witnesses are not very well liked in my area. Their beliefs have made them banned in several countries, and folks in my area tend to avoid them as much as they can. But one day, I was invited to go to one of their meetings on Sunday. I kept my comments to myself, I followed along in one of their Bibles, and I even sat through like a for one for all study session where everyone participated. The topic was, "What Would Happen If We Get Banned". It was like 40 question booklet thing, that everyone took turns reading like we would do in grade school.I sat through over 2 hours of discomfort because my butt went numb, and I was bored, but for them this was a serious issue, and I tried to be respectful.
Why would I do that? Because didn't want to be another broken record in echo chamber. I wanted to see for myself why people feel the way they do, inside and outside of the congregation. And now I also have opinions of my own.
The clairs are a good place to start, but each clair can branch off to different skills/traits. Clairaudience, clear hearing, can branch to telepathy. Personally, I have to write lists and charts, but I wrote categories for all my senses, then I wrote how I felt, heard, smelled, etc. It made deducing and organizing so much easier, but also my notes gave me a sense of direction of what to research.
Hi I have a question! Anytime I am in a peaceful state such as meditation I start to subconsciously think about this situation that hasn’t happened yet. I won’t go into detail into the specifics as it is very personal I was just wondering does this have a name?
I know clairvoyance is hearing/seeing things. I know it’s not that but I can picture things so clearly. I can taste/feel things and have a gut feeling? I’m so sorry if this is confusing!
Hello friend! Up front, I'm not an expert. My experiences still raise a bunch of questions for me.
I guess I'm wondering about the situation you're talking about - is it planned and just hasn't happened yet, or is it totally new to you? If that makes sense. Because that kinda sounds like anxiety. But!
Clairgustance, or "clear tasting" is most definitely a thing, and the other part sounds like intuition.
Like a muscle, psychic abilities can get stronger with practice. Tastes and smells can tell you a lot about a person or situation. Unfortunately I don't have advice on how to practice those things specifically for clairgustance but! The /r/psychic reddit thread had a lot of folks inquiring about it and I saw some good responses so might be worth checking out.
Best of luck friend!
Yay! You're my top go for anything cosmic, and have always explained things through a scientific/studious lense versus weird "when the stars align" sort of way.
something in my brain changed today where i realized that i can't keep treating astrolatry as a concept instead of a religion because it literally is a religion, at least in a broad sense depending on how you look at it.
and i don't really vibe with that structure anymore ?
no i'm not giving up on cosmic magic - that's still my thing. it'll just be viewed through a much more secular lens. :)
This morning I spent some time with Ra, and I was able to switch on my clairaudient abilities. Using the Bee Tarot I used what is called Hive and Flower spread. Their version of the Celtic Cross Spread. It was an overall positive spread, and any negative stuff that was brought up I am already aware of and in the thick of things. Things will get better, I have done it before and I will do it again.
It was also brought up in the cards, I need to get back on the spiritual track as well. This was brought up by the Delphic Bee (Hierophant) and the Star. Which is true. I definitely have lost my zeal I used to have back in the day.
I'm also getting back in the habit of journaling again. It is helping me keep my mind off of too many things.

Another round of storms. It was hot and muggy, but now it's cooling off. If my IBS wasn't acting up, I'd feel like doing some weather witchery. But I will settle for playing Minecraft and taking a break from packing.
