Is it normal to feel drained after a ritual?
Whenever I do a working with my patron Satan, I always experience his presence as very intense. I begin to feel cold spots touching my arms and hands, even when I’m wearing a cloak and have several warm candles going. I experience a pressure in my head and my body feels as if it is being surrounded and sometimes even enveloped by another presence. I find that this trance like state is very hard to hold onto as the intensity of it is very overwhelming. I don’t feel it as explicitly negative or positive, but when I’m done the working I feel like I’ve interacted with something far beyond my comprehension. It feels like I’ve just come back to earth from a trip somewhere beyond the material and my every day hobbies like video games or watching tv seem so mundane to me. The feeling always goes away after some post ritual grounding (eating food, drinking, journaling, and watching YouTube)
These experiences are fascinating and mentally transformative, but I wonder if the feelings of being tired or drained are a sign I’m doing something wrong? I've been a Theistic Satanist for a few years but only started practicing meditation and ritual magic more frequently over the past year. I’ve consistently received many signs and have had nothing but positive experiences through divination and other spells so I don’t think I’m communicating with some sort of imposter spirit and like I say, my rituals don’t feel negative, just draining afterwards.
Is this normal or is there something I’m doing wrong? Do/Have any of you had similar experiences? Any advice or ritual tips are much appreciated.
