Hey all,
I’ve been wanting to write about this topic for a while. I see that there is a new culture with these younger practitioners or spiritualists across the board NEEDING to “hex”, “throw”, or participate in spell-work EVERY TIME they get angry or upset. In reality, they just have a normal human, life experience and go take it to the altar or JOURNAL about it!
I have no idea why “throwing” seems to be so glamorized or such a fad thing to do for those under the age of 25 without developed frontal lobes. It saddens me even those with developed frontal lobes that the go-to solution to things even accountability is to “hex” when it takes 2 to tango and they’re half the issue.
Instead, I truly believe journaling is the biggest and greatest form of all spirituality, most vital part of ANY practice, and does make the difference in self-love, mental strengthening & growth while simultaneously maintaining FAITH!
I always say, get a nice pen, colored pens, crayons, markers, highlighters, or whatever you need to make your journal yours. I like to make sure that, for myself, I get a very expensive and/or super bound black artistry book type journal without any lines because sometimes I like to draw or utilize the page to my artistic ability. However, you don’t need an expensive one. You can get a beautiful journal or composition book at your local dollar store.
I usually suggest as well for those who are new devotees to La Santa Muerte that having a journal is vital to document your journey with her. I have every journal to this day since the first day of devotion to her. Especially in my time of high anger, journaling with mommy makes the difference. Sometimes, you have to learn that going to do a working is not always the answer to your anger. More often than not, it could create a more severe chaotic situation and possibly turn it deadly. It’s better just to go to the altar, write down your emotions, and let her handle what needs to be handled.
I would extend that this would be nice to do for any other deity/saint/ancestor anybody else has. This is also good historical documentation because if you take it to the altar, you write down your feelings, it has a recorded date. Words hold power, and your words are heard by the universe. At least you have proof in which things transpired and resolve themselves in your own words that is in a grounded occupied space. Your anger should not penetrate to the point where everything needs to be solved with lack of accountability from your part.
Also, let it be known for the record, if you were that angry, you need to find actual professional help. There are some things that the magical, spiritual world, that cannot help in the physical realm. Most of the time it is a you problem not the problem of any of your gods, goddesses, ladies, pantheon, or even La Santa Muerte to fix for you.
With that, all being said, I hope you guys enjoyed this read.
XOXO,
Alexx
