First contact with King Paimon and pact

Hi. I decided to perform the first ritual with King Paimon and make a pact. I want to share with you my signs and events. Within 5 days of starting to think about it, my appetite simply disappeared. I often craved unhealthy food, even though I’m a vegan, and I started living almost on water and one fruit a day, but I had a lot of energy. I successfully completed all the tasks and even did a thorough house cleaning like I’d never done before.

But there were more signs: I was on a train and saw a burning cemetery, I swear.

Suddenly, later I found out that it would be better to perform the ritual on Sunday, which meant I had just one day to sew the sigil and prepare everything needed. It felt like a challenge.

I prepared thoroughly for the ritual and drew a portrait of the paimon in semi‑realism for the first time, even though my style had always been purely cartoonish; I sewed the sigil from beads and prepared the pact and the altar as beautifully and regally as possible — just as he would like it. The ritual took place. Sometimes I spoke quietly, and I always stared at the sheet with the prompts; sometimes I mispronounced words and read them poorly. Sometimes I mixed up the steps of the ritual and repeated the phrases to him.

Will he not be offended? Was everything fine? I even pricked my finger twice because of my anxiety.

And later I noticed that one candle near the offerings had burned for a very long time — 2 hours after the ritual — and later it burned through the plastic table of the altar, but the fabric was fine. What does it mean?

That night, I dreamed that I went to study without removing the altar, and in the middle of the day I remembered that my mom was at home and might see it. So I went home. I ran away. My family has different views, and I might seem like a Satanist to them. In any case. What do you think?

I will be glad to hear your thoughts!

Why do we keep pretending that axolotls like our “aesthetic” aquariums if they’re stressful for them? Maybe it’s time to admit that 90% of our tanks are a prison, not a home.

I look at beautiful aquariums with bright lights, soil, and decor, and I feel sorry for the axolotls. They’re nocturnal creatures that need darkness and cold. Don’t you think we’re putting our aesthetics above their survival? How ethical is it, in general, to keep them in “designer” aquariums?
