Hi I’m Catrine
I have been on several left hand path forums on Reddit and thought of joining this community. I hope we can exchange knowledge to improve ourselves and others. And better help beginners.
How long: I have been practicing off and on for six years.
Location: I don’t think it matters, I travel for work so I’m always moving. I’m Russian
Ethnicity: I’m mixed race. I think it has shaped my life experiences as I am lonelier than people with a strong racial community and why I want to help others.
I mainly look for influence spells, like how to navigate around negative authority figures like boss or teacher
Interest: Influence spells and protection of the weak
Strength: Weather magick, I can call storm on hot day with relevant spirits invoked. It is useful for dry spells but I am not exactly pleased that it is my ability as I want to take control of my environment and people because they are not as nice and sometimes outright want to ruin my future. Which brings to my next point.
Also astral projection, this is the number one way I met demons, also the location matters too, demons seem to be less active on land that is mountainous or rocky (strangely I found this out by accident) I lived near a historical red light district, it isn’t anymore but so I think the lust of the area attracted demons too. It is in that house that I discovered them, and they made themselves known to me.
One of my life missions is to stop abuse of power and try to rescue individuals or long form (indirect) cast spells to help them. I wish I could believe in god, but my life has shown me I don’t really jive with ‘that religion’ so I turned to alternative means. So instead of helplessly praying, it is to reclaim one’s own power is my mission starting with mine. And I hope to help others realise the power in themselves too. I have tried to believe in god but I felt no connection, it always felt ‘off’. I don’t know who else here can resonate with this but I hope to hear from you.
I used to work for a large pantheon, of some being demon kings but my relationship is not so good now
One issue I have is overeliance on spirits I think there is a price for everything, and I have heard of tribes practitioners dying in accidents because they didn’t pay a spirit properly for their services. If local spirits can be dangerous so can all these documented spirits. So I don’t recommend over relying on them.
I have a lot of experiences so go ahead and ask
I get carried away while typing so if you think I missed anything, go ahead and tell me! That’s all for now and nice to meet you!
