#356 Intrusive thoughts during a spell

[AskSatanOperator]

Greetings to everyone,
I am in the middle of a spell and I continously get intrusive thoughts. Moreover I tend to fantasize a lot on the result of my spell, to the point that I totally lose contact with reality. Do you think that fantasizing can totally ruin my work? I begun breathing brown energy affirming that I am concentrated and connected to the phisical plan to fix the problem, but I don't know what to do with intrusive thoughts ... I tried void meditation but I still have troubles in staying concentrated for a while. I read somewhere that Runes like Isa and Berkano can help in situations like this. The biggest fear that I have is that all these thoughts may ruin my entire spell, even though I'm fighting REALLY HARD with my mind to control them. Do you have any recommendations? Thanks in advance

Fantasising, or "reaffirming" a working is fine except when it come's from a place of desperation as this implies a lack of faith in the working, and these negative feelings/energy can interfere with the magick you're creating. As you begin to have more and more success with magick, these fear's tend to naturally dissolve or at least lessen.

If necessary, make changes to your meditation schedule to incorporate more void meditation and things to ground you.

The worst way to think about your spell is to worry that you ruined it. If you really have some work to do in this area of concentration, approach it more calmly. Don't be upset that you ruined things. When you think about it, realize that you still have some work to do and be understanding of yourself, without getting upset.

Fantasy and imagination will never be a problem if it is approached in the right way... The worry of having messed this up is what kills a spell so to speak.

Managing an overactive mind is done through good focusing habits, music with drums can help focus and bring the mind into the present. Here are some sounds, music has a calming effect on the overactive mind, just find the rhythm that suits you best. There are days that you will need to change the rhythm to focus and this is completely normal, do what you sense and do not limit yourself.

When it becomes something in your imagination concerning magical work, it is your own mind telling you how it works best for your psyche, for example, let's say you are in money work and you happen to let your imagination take control of it, suddenly there are bills flying or hands or feet. Why would it affect the work if you are visualizing money? You're just doing it differently, that's all.

You have to learn to know your mind and when your imagination has a purpose and when it does NOT. This takes time but it will be worth it, for this ask Lady Astarte for help, you can do her power ritual with this intention or watch her sigil for a long time with this intention in mind. She helped me a lot with my mind, and if you have an overactive mind that means you have a very rich imagination, it is just a matter of giving it a good focus.

The ISA rune works when you feel that your mind is out of control, I use it when I can not control my mind because of the imagination I have, it helps me a lot to paralyze this aspect and focus. Do not overuse it, as it can induce depression or zero production.

Hatha yoga helps with this as well, you can hold a position for X period of time while your mind calms down.

Vacuum meditation can be used by visualizing an object, even focusing on a specific sound, look for strategies to this, remember to write everything down and keep a record. The overactive mind is not a problem when you get to know you and give it a good focus, you must navigate the waves of the sea or just go around the wave to pass, that's all.
