So much deity work seems to be focused on having “conversations” with deities/spirits/entities. Some examples could be : astral projecting to meet gods, a demon threatening to possess you in a dream, hearing voices during meditations, etc. Now I’m not saying those accounts are all false, but it’s turning spirituality and witchcraft into something it is not. It is highly unlikely you’ll have vivid dreams and encounters where an ancient god is going to tell you to buy a resin statue and break up with your partner. Further you aren’t a bad witch if you never have crazy unexplainable encounters with the supernatural world. Waiting for signs and directions from ghosts will lead to disappointment or even deterioration in mental health. If you’re just beginning to work with spirits take a deep breath, light a candle and give thanks. Witchcraft is highly individualized and deeply spiritual, but it’s also heavily rooted in the world we can see. Exaggerating deity work and witchcraft in general is counterproductive and harmful.

Not everyone (me) can sit still and a lot of people (also me) find it hard to center themselves before a ritual or spell by just sitting and thinking. Here are some ideas I use when I find conventional reflection is not an option:
Count numbers up to either a target or until you feel content (I have been known to write on my leg I would suggest use paper)
Rip some paper or an index card as much as possible (use old paper that’s already been written on)
Run it out 🏃🏃♂️🏃♀️
If the weather is bad I will go outside and just shake or dance for as long as my bare feet can handle it, I come in feeling new and absolutely ready to go
Lay on the ground like a starfish and try to stretch your body as wide as it goes
Cook or bake something 🥘
