I recently visited a shaman specialising in West African/ Islamic practices because my life has been extremely tough with respect to love and losing everything I desire, be it job or friends or anything else.
Firstly she told me that my life is going to be devoid of love, she cast the cowrie shells multiple times for this and every time the answer was that I would not be getting romantic love in this lifetime. It makes sense because I have only been in one relationship in nearly 30 years of my life which ended really horribly and I am still not over him and I want him to come back. She also said that there were attempts on my life because someone is casting harmful spells on me. She suspects its my ex but I refuse to believe that at all.
I don’t know what to do, I am very heartbroken and I am unable to digest how to accept this. Everything else is also going to be hard in my life apparently.
She also suggested casting some revenge spells (graveyard spells) on my ex but I shut it down immediately because I do not want to cause him any harm, I love him and will never want to see him in pain. If we do cast some spells I would want them to be love spells or reconciliation spells.
I am very lost and I need some guidance. What should be my next steps?
The whole point of magick is controlling your destiny and your future, nothing is set in stone to the point where those things can be said absolutely. High chance she was trying to upsell you and make you buy more spells from her but regardless, learn pathworking and you can literally communicate with spirits on the same day and start changing things. Your destiny is in your hands and not in some random persons divination.
You’ll make it true just by believing it. Doctors had to stop telling cancer patients hire long they had left as they drop dead on cue but could survive and beat the cancer if they wanted to.
Similarly divination can mess you up. All it’s doing is describing the probabilities in the patterns of energy around you at the time of the reading.
That’s not the same thing as what will actually happen.
You can switch up all that energy, part by oart and change it.
Re the ex she could be reading the sourness in the relationship and bad feelings as curses, it’s pretty much the same thing.
I’d suggest making some changes to reinvent yourself and bring in new energy while releasing the old.
I probably ahead suggested this one to you but the poppet down I always use can help dissolve and clear away the bad energy and messy connection with the ex: it’s that attachment that is leaving no room for other romantic relationships, and it sounds like it’s time to let it go and be yourself again.
