About 6 years ago I was learning about the law of attraction because I was struggling in many ways im a single mom no family or friend hard to work bc daycares don’t know how to properly take care of children with special needs (tried and learned that the hard way) , and I have a history of being abused sexually physically mentally and emotionally. I’m raising a boy alone and wanted to see a change in finances and in love, I also wanted to be able to discern opportunities from potential set back, and identify my life purpose. I wanted a clearer understanding of how to navigate life.
Some of the things I did that did serve me were writing or "scripting". I would wake up and write 3 things im grateful for 3x each while listening to meditative music and even having some of an elixr from Etsy that's advertised to help raise one's vibration ( I felt it worked, might have been placebo) and before sleeping I would write 3 I am affirmations 3x each. I also was listening to a guided mediation every night and I was focusing on doing a quantum shift From my life as it was to what I imagined as my dream life. That also felt like it worked although only a little bit. When scripting I would typically focus on manifesting love, and money. Small amounts of money came and went, I manifested a job, and romance came and went I was young and unstable so didn't hold onto anything for too long. So l knew these women whose meditation I was using and from who I bought the elixr from were self proclaimed witches which became an issue when I sought to surround myself around Christians. My Christian COUSIN
actually recommended I throw away my journal and I regretfully listened. A friend told me if scripting and mediation worked
Me I should continue doing it, and not listen to these Christian's who proved themselves to be super hypocrites. This is my dilemma. If I felt confident I knew the truth as to where to spiritually align myself I would be more confident in using that knowledge to better my situation. I am sort of a struggling single mom so things aren't the easiest for Me. I often think about how the Bible says to not consult with soothsayers and not to look at the stars. But how do we know what's been edited. When I pray to God and ask for help I feel it's a little slower than using loa or using spells. I also don't know what to call him.
Jesus or Yahua or Yeshua. So I'm very confused.

About 6 years ago I was doing a kundalini awakening meditation involving breath retention and visualizing energy rising from the perineum to the third eye. During the meditation, my body started swaying side to side like a snake and my tongue began flickering on its own. What does that mean? Was it just bc I was depriving my body of oxygen by holding my breath for so long or something else? Has anyone heard of this before? It scared me away from even practicing the law of attraction and I’ve felt spiritually stuck ever since. I turned to Christianity and that was rough bc I felt I lost all the power I had using the law of attraction and doing spell work. The people in the church were abs insufferable. So this kind of lead to me hitting a fork in the road and I didn’t know which way to go. These days I’m still torn between what spiritual practices I should follow. It’s exhausting. Any thoughts?

What does this mean for a newbie like me. I know I shouldn’t face them towards another mirror or that can invite spirits in the home. Some people cover them at night I never thought this to be necessary. What can you guys tell me about this? I know people use mirrors to invoke things into their lives but idk how that’s done. I don’t trust YouTube or TikTok and I’m wondering if anyone here can shed light or recommend any books.

Mlk concludes his I have a dream speech by mentioning the old negro spiritual. Was he referring to hoodoo? Looking for someone who has studied Mlk to help clear this up.

Why do celebrities cover one eye in photos? I’ve heard a variety of explanations for this, ranging from symbolic interpretations (such as the Eye of Horus or themes of duality) to more speculative theories.
From an occult, symbolic, or historical perspective, is there any documented significance to this imagery? Is it primarily an artistic/fashion trend, or does it have roots in any specific esoteric traditions?

Online I saw a witch say someone she was helping had a child was having behavior problems bc she binded a man and didn’t pay for the work with an animal sacrifice.

Could non-initiated spellwork have consequences?
I have never practiced Santeria or been initiated into any tradition.
Years ago, I experimented with various manifestation and spell practices I found online, such as candle meditation, burning herbs, writing petitions, using crystals, and relationship or money workings. At the time, I didn't really understand what I was doing.
Recently, I heard someone claim that spiritual work done improperly (not offering animal sacrifices to be specific) can affect the person doing it and/or their children. Is this something you would consider possible?

About 10 years ago, I had two neighbors whom I considered friends. I realize now they did not have had good intentions toward me, and even at the time things were tense sometimes but I was lonely and had no friend I left my hometown and was in a shelter with my newborn I had no one other than my child. I realize they were shady and secretive..
About a year ago I had a dream these girls put period blood in spaghetti and realized when I woke up they did make spaghetti for me (the only time they cooked for me ) and knew at that point what was up. So I called one of One of the girls she admitted that the other had been doing witchcraft on both of us but I know they were both doing it on me. They even did my hair one time. Also one of them told me she saw a demon on a person I knew and would tell me to read psalms, was telling me about the book of Enoch and it was blowing my mind at the time.. interestingly I was fasting and I slept with rose petals in my room that night idk if the rose petals had anything to do w anything.
When I called that lady she said if I'm now having this realization the work or the root must have wore off. She said the other lady was trying to do a destiny swap w me (bc she was jealous) and after | left that shelter and got my apartment I started getting sick and depressed. She said I need a cleansing I listened to what she had to say for what it was worth and blocked her after bc I don't trust her.
I sometimes wonder about whether this could still be affecting me.

what are your thoughts?

Years ago (around 2020 and earlier), I got interested in manifestation, law of attraction, and internet witchcraft. I was never initiated into any religion or tradition, and I mostly learned things from YouTube and books.
Some things I did included writing affirmations repeatedly, meditating with candles and crystals, burning herbs, casting circles, and doing various manifestation or spell practices related to money, luck, and relationships. Looking back, I realize I didn’t really understand what I was doing.
Recently, I heard someone claim that a woman’s child developed behavioral problems because she had performed a binding spell on a man and never “paid” for the work spiritually, (with the blood of an animal)
Can spellwork done without formal training or initiation backfire years later or affect someone’s children? Even using bio fluids in food to bind a man? I know gross I recognize how wrong that is and have changed I will never do that again.
I’m interested in hearing from people with actual experience and not just trying to be judged or mocked.
