Discerning Spirits
A Guide on How Not to Waste Your Time
There seems to be a lot of confusion on the subject of discerning spirits from thoughtforms and imposters. So I hope to shed some light on how this can be done. Unfortunately I had to learn this the hard way as I have had my time wasted with entities who knew nothing and could do nothing. This does not address thoughtforms that have been intentionally created for a purpose, but rather those things which either arise spontaneously through our own fantasies or dodgy egregoric spirits unintentionally created by some occult collectives.
One of the first characteristics of a real spirit is that they will often defy your expectations of them. I realize that some will say that spirits appear and behave in the manner expected of them. I thought this too at one time. Upon reflection, I say this is wrong and is actually one of the characteristics of a thoughtform or unconscious projection. Real spirits will take forms largely in harmony with their natures, but it may not be something that you expect. Their speech patterns and choice of words will likely differ markedly from anything you yourself might say.
In the instances where you can see a spirit, it will often be with a level of detail that you didnāt imagine. Thoughtforms and projections are usually somewhat hazy in appearance, having only as much detail as you are able to put into them.
Real spirits have a distinct sense of presence as If a person is in the room. Thouā¦
And another from Sept 2020:
Iāll preface by saying Iām pretty much a newbie, so I am NOT an authority in magick.
The purpose of this guide is to conceptualize real magick opposed to fantasy magick, the sort that we see in movies and videogames.
This article is aimed at beginners. We all need a certain basic education and since there is no such thing as academic magick, as a community, we have to make sure we can provide, at least, the basic knowledge for new practitioners. It will be enough to say that when I started, BALG appeared in googleās top results whenever I researched even basic vocabulary.
One recurrent thing weāve noticed lately is that one person too many get confused and expect magick, the one we make here, to be like fiction has portrayed it. Fiction is the key word in this mess.
ONE: The great grimoire of all powerful everything
Ass seen in: Buffy the vampire slayer, Harry Potter, Hellblazer and many others.
What it is: That one book with has all the answers and can do exactly what it is needed.
Why a writer would write that: Because the plot demands a solution.
Why it has nothing to do with the occult: Because no occultist has a perfect 100% rate of success. And even if it someone had, those stories never try to explain where this thing came from or why it is supposed to work, unless it is mentioned that it was written by some god or something. If it isnāt a plot point, no writer would dive into the lore, since EVERYTHING has to contribute to the story, one way or another. And loā¦
And next, a very excellent post by forum member @C.Kendall :
Who is this for.
This is for those individuals that have a low supply of personal energy. This is also for people who are subconsciously vampirising people and begin taking on their gunk and are in a bad energtic and physical state. Some of you may even just may need a āfix upā of your energy and supply of power.
What are symptoms of these energetic problems.
Mental Health - Many of us who may be feeding of other without knowing can sometimes take on peopleās depression, stress, anxiety etc which in turn can be poisonous for your own psyche.
Physically Drained - You might have aches and pains in your muscles, bones, joints etc.
You may be not wanting to get of bed, or have noticed that your physically worn out recently.
Spiritual Difficulties - Maybe your spells aināt producing results or power. Maybe the spirits arenāt showing up, maybe your rites arent just what they used to be etc.
Emotional Chaos - Perhaps your emotions are everywhere, individuals who are empaths sometimes get so immersed in other peopleās suffering they actually take on those emotions thereby taking on toxic energies.
Spiritual attack - maybe youāre under attack, cursed, have entities fucking with your energy, maybe your a victim of a psychic vampire draining you too much.
Power Rips - Power rips are basically you did some major powerful rite, or having been working with really intense energies and powers and your energy system or astral matrix has taken a toll from that.
These arā¦
Edit to add, important considerations for those seeking an incubus, succubus, or sex, love, and marriage to a spirit:
I would like to give my honest opinion about succubi entity considered as life partner.
I experienced the whole thing and for many years I learnt many things and I concluded several reasons for my opinion. However, experiences from a person to another may vary.
Here are major points and reasons of the journey for why I think succubi are not perfect as a partner. No offense for those who had a successful relationship, Iām just sharing my own thoughts based on experience and conclusions.
1. Communication is not perfect
The most important thing in a love relationship is understanding each other properly and in a friendly way. Here, with succubi, itās difficult to fully understand her/him in all manners. Sometimes telepathic communication works and sometimes it doesnāt. Touches and gestures can also help but still itās not good enough. The purposed talk clarity is always frustrating and can cause misunderstanding. The silent show is not for everyone, because most humans prefer the direct\regular way in communicating that is clear and accurate to avoid hard feelings or problems.
2. Not Flesh-to-Flesh
The lack of physicality can make the whole relationship boring, I know we may be able to feel glitches and sometimes what is beyond that but itās still what it is, not physical. This is a very frustrating element in this relationship making you easily unsatisfied.
3. Not always there
After a night with her\him, succubi\incubi get satisfied and leave somewhere for some period, ā¦
