Words are descriptive sounds of our feelings and emotions. Our feelings and emotions are the fuel to our manifestations. Our lives are series of manifestations playing out.
The words we say. Think. Write. Sing. They all hold power. Sure, some don't hold much, because we don't have a whole lot of belief behind them. Like our lack of true belief in ourselves, leading to us holding ourselves back. Then there's the ones that are fueled by anger and it seems we manifest those quickly. Anger is powerful. Self doubt is powerful. So is self love. Self acceptance. Joyfulness. We just need to allow ourselves to wholeheartedly experience these emotions.
As witches, and it doesn't matter what kind of witch, we are constantly working on being in balance with the elements. We don't spend nearly enough time balancing our thoughts and words. We focus on the negative energy in the world, getting sucked in to believing we need to carry all these burdens for others. We then throw ourselves off kilter and begin to get sucked into the muck of yuck.
FYI: all those burdens aren't for you or for you to carry.
Put. Them. Down. Right there. Seriously.
Leave them. They aren't yours.
So when someone says get grounded, it isn't about only putting your bare feet on earth and hugging a tree. It's about doing the physical grounding. But also grounding your focus. Feel your experience. Put down the bullshit that isn't yours and leave it. You are doing no one any favors crushing yourself under the weight of all that.
Or go ahead and drag it some more. It really is your choice.
Remember this. Spelling is the act of putting letters together to make words to use to verbally describe what you are feeling and experiencing. You cast a spell with every single word, spoken, sung, written and thought.
So the real question isn't "am I casting this circle correctly" or "am I using the right herbs"...
The real question is "is what I am casting what I want to cast? Is what I am verbalizing in this spell, what I actually want to manifest and create? Or am I having a moment and I am not in alignment to my truest desire right now?"
Yes. We hold that much power. First we need to recognize that and second, put it into practice so we can strengthen ourselves, balance ourselves, and create the life we all keep saying we want.
We didn't have a say in the last couple hundred years of bullshit. But as aware human beings, we are here to be responsible for the changes and shifts happening. Those shifts? They start in each one of us.
Be your own unique form of magick and use your words for the massive power source they are.
