~ WHAT ARE PLACEBOS? HOW CAN YOU USE PLACEBOS TO MANIFEST? (WITH IDEAS & EXAMPLES OF WHAT YOU CAN USE) ~

Long Post Alert ⚠️

the placebo effect is when an improvement in medical symptoms is observed, despite using a non-active treatment. it possibly occurs due to psychological factors like assumptions or classical conditioning.

• placebos are used in the form of fake treatments, pills, injections etc. which if taken with certain assumptions in mind can produce effects of an actual treatment. for instance, in one study, people were instructed to consume placebo sugar pills and explained instead that it was a stimulant. after taking the pill, their pulse rate sped up, their blood pressure increased, and their reaction speeds improved. (keep in mind that the pills were fake!)

• possibly, the placebo effect is caused due to a person's expectations and assumptions. if a person assumes a pill to do something, then it's possible that the body's own chemistry can cause effects similar to what a medication might have caused. the placebo effect demonstrates the powerful and undeniable connection between the mind and body in what we feel and experience

• in a lot of cases, despite people being aware that they are being given a placebo, they assumed it to work & it was still mostly effective & showed improvement. placebos can be used in manifesting to trick our mind into setting intentions & assigning meanings to actions that are in favor of our desires. which means you can perform certain actions and decide that it has a certain effect on your desire. these actions may or may not be directly related to your desire. you don't necessarily need to take actions or use any techniques to manifest. this is simply a helpful tool.

~~ USING PLACEBOS FOR MANIFESTING ~~

any action taken with a preconceived assumption repeatedly, creates a placebo. in law of assumption, we can form our own beliefs/assumptions by affirming & persisting in our desired reality. we assign meaning to everything in our reality & by affirming or our dominant thoughts, we retain those assumed meanings or change them in order for them to be in the favor of our desires.

• your placebos can/cannot be directly or logically linked to your desire & that's perfectly okay. for example, if you're manifesting a good singing voice, you could assume :

1) every time i drink hot milk, my singing gets better.

or something like

2) everytime i practice, my singing gets better.

here, in the first example there's no connection between milk and - having a good voice but it would still work if you assume it does. and in the second example we see a conventionally conditioned belief that practicing or hardwork can bring our desires - and it will, if you assume it does. so everything really comes down to what you assume & how you train your mind to dominantly think.

why this works : everytime you drink hot milk and reaffirm that it is giving you a better voice or everytime you practice, you assume it is making you a better singer, IT WILL- your assumptions eventually create your reality. you're god, your rules work here! i mean think about it why do superstitions & rituals sometimes work? it's because the people doing them assume & believe it does!

~~ AFFIRMATION IDEAS/EXAMPLES FOR PLACEBOS ~~

specific person:

• everytime i wash my face, SP calls me.

• everytime i snap my fingers, SP falls deeper in love with me

• everytime i eat apples, SP does something special for me

• everytime i listen to hozier songs, SP misses me

• everytime i think of SP, SP thinks of me

money, career & job :

• everytime i spend money, it comes back to me tenfold

• everytime i see a traffic signal, i get a thousand dollars

• everytime i feed my dog, i get a promotion

• everytime i jump twice, i get praised for my work

• everytime i wake up early, i get a salary raise

desired body:

• everytime i go for a walk, i get a slimmer nose

• everytime i drink water, my waist gets tinier

• everytime i sing a song, my eyes become more hazel

• everytime i call my bestie, my hair grows longer

• everytime i do my homework, my lips get plumper

for school/university :

• everytime i sleep early, i top my exams

• everytime i take an evening walk, i become more interesting

• everytime i look at my crush, they fall in love with me

• everytime i charge my laptop, i become more popular

• everytime i touch my books, i get smarter

for manifesting abilities :

• everytime i clean my room, i become better at manifesting

• everytime i have dinner on time, i maintain a perfect mental diet

• everytime i meditate, i instantly manifest

• everytime i flush the toilet, i release limiting beliefs (xD)

• everytime i write an affirmation, it instantly turns true

for being treated like royalty:

• everytime i do my skincare, everyone spoils me

• everytime i smile, i get free clothes, makeup & bags

• everytime i comb my hair, i get endless compliments

• everytime i exercise, everyone worships me

• everytime i eat oats, i become irresistible

feel free to use any placebo for any of your desires. you can customise them according to your daily habits or whatever you find easy, fun and comfortable! happy manifesting ♡

Enchanting Objects

Hello pals im Roy, hi, how are you? Im back! Isn’t that great, i think thats absolutely fabulous! Anyways little context, i was trapped because of the pandemic but im back home and that’s what matters.

Anyways let’s start with the very interesting topic of enchanting objects xd. 

What does enchanting objects mean? 

Basically and in a fast summary, you are putting your energy into that object so it fulfills an intention/purpose. Example, im gifting my best friend a little necklace, i enchanted it so it protects her against negativity and toxic people. 

Can the enchantment run out of energy (stop working)?

Yes, as most of spells that surround energy, they can stop working but don’t worry! There’s actually a great post regarding this topic by @scroll-of-thought​ right here that i would recommend to read. If you’re too lazy the summary is basically 1. create a sigil who recharges the enchanting through something simple such as touch or moonlight 2. create a spell jar who grabs energy from the surroundings and doesn’t need to be recharged. 

How do i enchant objects? 

1. Cleanse the object, you don’t want to put your energy into something that has negative energy in it. 

2. Then there’s actually a lot of ways of enchanting an object. So here’s a brief list: 

Enchanting with touch 

Visualizing energy running to the object (my post regarding visualization here)

Surround the item around crystals (if you have them) that match the intent

Draw a symbol/sigil on it with an invisible thing such as water, or idk be creative

In general i personally prefer the visualizing thing, but you know, paths are so different and maybe some people prefer enchanting with crystals! Remember not to use too many of your energy and that you can grab energy from other things such as plants, crystals, the sun, the moon, etc!

With nothing more to say, good luck in your craft <3

"My Cacti Stay Healthy"

Draw this on the pot you keep your cactus/cacti in

Setting an intention = deciding to do something.

Stop overthinking intentions! By definition, intention means, "a thing intended; an aim or plan". Setting an intention is simply just deciding to do something.

"I'm going to eat an apple right now" = a set intention

"I'm going to shift right now" = a set intention

"I'm going to finish my homework" = a set intention

Setting an intention is literally just deciding to do something when you want to. That's all it is! So stop overthinking it! You don't need to meditate and do 100 backflips to set an intention. Literally just make a decision. That's it.

"I'm going to shift. I'm going to manifest. I'm going to the void" yadda yadda and so on and so forth. Those are all set intentions. Just make the decision to do something and chill. I know it seems really easy, and that's because it is. It's not supposed to be hard!

catch-up is a stressful game: a further defense of astrological timing

I made this post called "in defense of astrological timing," which I recommend if I do say so myself.

This post is full of my personal opinions and beliefs. This post does not intend to represent universal beliefs. This is really just about what I do and how I practice. YMWV.

I would like to propose that timing your magic, such as waiting for a certain day or hour to perform an operation, is a solution to the intersection of two problems:

1. "When I need magic, I need it now - I have no time to wait."

2. "I am often low-spoons and I have difficulty raising energy or performing intense magic on demand."

The tl;dr is this: sometimes astrological timing seems to be approached backwards.

It is often approached as playing catch-up to your own situation. "I can't delay in casting a spell, I need the magic now." Which is indeed a very valid argument.

Approached from the opposite direction, astrological timing is not a burdensome correspondence to tack onto a spell. Rather, it is revealing opportune times for you to gather and store power throughout the year, so that the next time a situation comes up, you've already had a huge head start in taking care of the problem.

This also assists those of us with limited personal energy (as I've begun to consider I am not a "low-energy" witch but rather one who uses their energy in the stupidest least effective ways possible).

For example, suppose a vital part of your sorcery is burning a special incense before each spell. Yes, you can make a whole bunch of the incense at once.

And if you enchant the incense, that takes your power. You're transferring energy out of your personal bank account in order to store it within the incense.

Three months later when there is a vital spell to be cast, you're making a withdrawal from the incense bank and putting that additional energy towards your spell.

Actions like this reduce the amount of personal energy we need to spend during typical workings of magic.

Suppose a spell requires 50 units of energy in order to successfully manifest.

Well, if I've been slowly storing up energy in certain things (like special waters, incense, stones, and so on), I can use up some of that stored energy during a spell.

If I have 30 units of energy saved up within special objects, I only need to raise 20 further units of energy during that spell in order to make it manifest.

I can expend my own personal energy to complete the quota. Or, I can go looking for some free-flowing energy and try to channel it in order to complete the spell.

BUT

1. What if I have no energy units saved up in objects and I have to raise it all within that moment?

2. What if the free-flowing energies I need aren't present at that exact time?

If you believe in the impact of astrological timing, then you may believe that certain energies are more available during some times than other times. A specific energy may not just be around in great enough quantities for you to haul buckets of it to your spell.

It's relatively easy to spend our own power when external powers aren't available, even when we don't mean to.

This may lead to situations where the energy units I need to complete a spell just aren't around, either because I failed to store up energy when I had extra, or because I'm casting the spell at a very unfavorable time.

If I don't have 50 free personal energy units, this greatly increases the chances that my spell will just fail - like a car with a drained battery that just won't start.

You might be saying, "but I don't necessarily have a total of 30 units of free energy to just tuck into objects. I might have like, 2 or 3 units of spare energy a week, tops."

NOW WE'RE BACK TO ASTROLOGICAL TIMING!

If you are able to look ahead towards particularly well-appointed timings, you can prepare substances (such as incenses and oils), objects (such as amulets and spell vessels), tools (such as charging boards and wands), and other magical paraphernalia far ahead of time.

We know all the future appointments, right? It's just celestial maths :) You can use websites to look up special conjunctions years ahead of time.

This means that you have as much time as you need to prepare. No rushing about an hour before the ritual!

When you bring a prepared physical vessel into a ritual at an especially powerful astrological time, huge amounts of specific, wanted energies can be captured.

So remember earlier, when I was talking about enchanting incense using your own power? Well, suppose you never intentionally use your own power for anything: you always attempt to channel external energies.

But we come into the same loop: it can be easy to spend your own energy on accident, and if the external energies aren't very present you either end up with a weakly enchanted incense mix - or you burn a lot of your own power being the battery, or widening your search for the energy until you find it.

During especially well-appointed timings, though, that energy is very present and much easier to capture. You have to work less in order to capture large amounts.

You can look for appointments for healing, banishing, the virtues of various astrological signs, wealth, love, and more. By preparing some physical vessel to be enchanted by these substances, you are gathering and storing great amounts of power throughout the year.

And now, now we come full-circle: a response to the first two problems posed.

1. "When I need magic, I need it now - I have no time to wait."

If you are able to work ahead to capture and store various energies, you will not have to wait for anything - you have already capitalized upon opportune timings and have them crystalized inside of physical objects for you to use when you need them.

2. "I am often low-spoons and I have difficulty raising energy or performing intense magic on demand."

Because capturing energies when they are more readily available is much easier, you may find it to be much less draining to capture energies at opportune timings.

Then, when it becomes time to cast a spell in the moment, you will have a collection of strongly empowered objects that will fill up your spell with power on your behalf.

Your spells will still take some of your personal energy, just like any activity, but probably a lot less of it.

Transitioning to this may take a bit of work and can be awkward as hell.

I mean even if you're into it as a concept, it might not just be so easy to do, right?

If you're currently engaging in magical catch-up to ongoing or boiling-point situations, you might not have the time/energy/space to do a bunch of research on timings and then plan and prepare for a ritual, even one weeks or months away.

I don't mean to imply that it's easy or that everyone can just do it. I mean not all of us can carry around like 50 rocks or little pots of incense. Not all of us can rely on happening to have energy at some future date to perform a ritual at the exact time.

Moving into this modality of working ahead can also at times feel like stagnation: it can feel like planning and waiting instead of acting.

If you feel this might be something you're into, here are my suggestions:

Choose various "domains" of magic which are important to you: prosperity, love, defense, etc.

Slowly create or obtain vessels over time well-suited to capture energies from those domains, ideally using your hobbies if you can! A crochet bag or stuffie, a clay figurine, a painting, a song, any sort of physically creative hobby will do :) You can also modify candles, decorate charm bags, string beads, or even prepare thick cords to "tie up" available energies. I mean literally even a clear quartz with a bit of colored string tied on to identify it will do.

Start keeping an eye out for useful appointments. When one arrives upon you, see if you have the time/space/energy to perform a ritual to draw that energy into one of your vessels.

If you don't have the time/space/energy/interest (etc) in performing the ritual, ignore it and move on.

It is especially beneficial to empower small implements and ingredients you often use, so that your more common practices are less draining.

The following is pretty much UPG, unless I read it somewhere and forgot:

Initially imbuing a vessel with energy is best done on the most powerful appointment reasonably possible.

These vessels can be charged over and over again, capturing more and more power each time. Suppose the maximum energy you can capture in one empowerment ritual is 25 units. Well, you can perform the ritual again under the same auspicious timing to simply further power it, resulting in 50 units stored.

It is better to begin storing energy and do so at "minor" appointments over and over again than to put it off forever. Even if you wait for the most perfectest ever timing, you still may not have the ability, as a practitioner, to channel and store huge amounts of energy all at once. So waiting forever might be kinda pointless.

All vessels enchanted in this manner should be carefully stored so that the power doesn't leak out of them. They should not touch the earth, or else the power will go back into it. They can be wrapped carefully in black cloth and stored on a shelf. They should not be in the presence of salt, flour, iron, or other substances known to purify or break magical energies.

My ko fi

( ♡ ) what is the victim mentality?

have you ever said to yourself "why can't I manifest my desires? why am I struggling? why is life so unfair?"

then you are suffering from a severe case of 'victim mentality'.

you feel like you are a victim, you feel like nothing goes your way and you always fail

THIS is the victim mentality and fun fact: it doesn't serve you any purpose because you are NOT the victim. you literally create your reality and by thinking that you're a victim, your reality is reflecting that thought

how to overcome it?

stop. stop right there. stop thinking that you're a victim and stop thinking that you are helpless. BELIEVE in yourself and trust yourself. have faith in your power to manifest because believe it or not, manifestation is real. the law of assumption is real. if you assume that it's not real, then the law of assumption will make sure it's not

STOP doubting yourself and START believing in yourself because YOU ARE NOT the victim, you are the operant creator of your reality, you get to decide what happens here.

why do we struggle then?

why are you struggling when you KNOW that you are the creator of your reality? why are you still struggling when you are AWARE of the infinite power you hold? why are you anxious of your desires not showing up in the 3D?

only YOU can answer that question.

because everything is YOUR CREATION

you don't like the way you look? you don't like the way people treat you? you don't like your grades?

THEY ARE YOUR CREATION

what to do now?

your reality right now is the product of your past thoughts. but you STILL have the power to change it. you are limitless

don't like your looks? assume you look like the ideal version of yourself

want to change your past grades? manifest it

want to date your celebrity crush? know he's already yours

don't want to live here? shift to another reality

don't want your parents to be strict? EIYPO ( everything/everyone is you pushed out ). assume they treat you the way you want them to

you HOLD ENOUGH POWER TO CHANGE YOUR REALITY

stop reacting to the 3D because it's just the creation of your past thoughts and let go of your victim mentality because it doesn't serve you any purpose

the reality is nothing but your consciousness, you can change anything and everything about it that you wish to. everything is your creation
