Shadow work

[Rebel666]

I am a dedicated satanist and I am also apart of a 12 step program to help with my addiction. The step work I do for the program actually requires a lot of inner spiritual work. I am just posting this to see what types of shadow work you all do and if you have any templates to offer I would really appreciate it. Thanks !

Maybe its not shadow work so much. Trying to find healthy alternatives that gives a similar effects. 12 step sounds like alcohol addiction, are you drinking to cover up pain or is it for partying? At some point it all blends together. Try to find something healthy that fills the void to help rather than ignoring it. Identifying what void the addiction is filling is important. Working out is a good alternative for alcohol addiction for example (for a lot of addictions). Everyone is a little different. The physical withdraws will pass faster than the mental aspects. Addictions are habits on steroids, the best way to break a habit is to replace it with a better one.

There are a lot of different addictions, usually they start off as either curiosity (partying for example) or avoiding pain of some kind. In more extreme cases they are forced. Addressing what the addiction targets and healing that trauma is the best way to get long term results.

Scorpio, the sign of the occult… and also obsessions. Many members have this sign, or other aspects within your natal chart, that cause obsessions. Another factor is spells, magick caused by the enemy. Those with an open 3rd Eye and/or strong aura can see through spells easier and move away from...

From my experience I can tell you that repressing a negative will brings the opposite effect, you should direct that will towards something positive. The energetic force can be directed towards self-destructive things as well as towards things full of life, the sermons I have listed above explain this concept well.

For everything, always make POSITIVE statements, don't say things like: "I don't use this thing anymore..."

All this if I understood correctly what you meant by "Shadow Work". If I misunderstood I apologize and ask you to specify better, I will be happy to help you. However what I wrote helps with dependencies so it is valid regardless of the rest.
