2 weeks ago, I started a spiritual Mars square on a day and hour on Mars while Mars was in Aries, actually it still is. Within a few days my father almost got into a fight over road rage, luckily I stopped him.
I started it originally to empower my sacral chakra but after that experience I read what Mars current houses, aspect and sign all entailed for me if I continued the square, I decided to stop it early. The risks did not feel worth it.
A few months ago, when I did a group ritual for Hera along with 60 other Zevists, a number I helped to bring up by posting on the forums to get as many Zevists to join. First it did not feel good, but by the end of the ritual, I had a nose bleed. I never have nose bleeds
Earlier that day I inhaled some fire energy but not a lot as well so I don’t know if that played a role but it felt odd that the nose bleed happened right after I finished the ritual. To this day I’m not sure why it happened. Was she angry at me for things I did in the past, was I simply not able to handle such energy yet, or it was negative energies in my aura being amplified, I’m not sure.
It’s seemingly a problem only I have. Maybe others experienced similar things but don’t feel comfortable speaking about them. Everyone else feels great in group rituals while I feel awful, negative, and in the most extreme cases I got physically hurt. Although the nose didn’t bleed much and I felt completely fine after without any mental or physical pain.
It’s a shame my most powerful experiences are negative, but they are powerful in the sense that almost no other ritual I did had an affect on the physical world that those two had.
I did other rituals that I’d consider successful but those may have just happened anyway and I can’t confirm if it was truly from the rituals or not.
I have had positive experiences, especially now since I’m doing certain spiritual planet squares with safer planets and I feel very powerful in the chakras I’m working on with these squares.
The bandha I’ve been doing for the root chakra that HPS wrote about has had very positive and good effects on me and my lower 3 chakras as well. Thank you High Priestess.
