This was very much my own experience as well! I think there can be a tendency towards believing that because we’re “sensitive,” “empathic,” or deeply intuitive that we couldn’t possibly be deceived. It’s a mindset definitely promoted widely, and it’s leaving people vulnerable. This is a conversation that needs to be had more often!

Loved reading this. Have you ever read On Becoming an Alchemist? It’s one of my favorites books of all time. Every 4 should have it by their bedside.

This really hits for me. I went through something very similar and also decided to stop. It felt like I needed to have my eyes closed and use the name of some “higher being” than me in order for the wisdom I have inherently within to seem legit. It feels scarier, but much better to face And take responsibility for what I have to express with eyes wide open using my own name instead of passing accountability on to some “higher being.”

Ouija boards: the gateway drug to ghost Tinder. Love that you owned it. Channeling doesn’t make you enlightened—it just means you’re WiFi for whoever’s bored on the astral plane. Props for hanging up the line when the vibes went full Jezebel. Virgin Monk Boy approves.

I kept trying to get on and it didn't work. What did I do wrong? It was just a black screen. First time on Substack but I created an account.
