Lack of drive, binge eating, low testosterone.

MercuryWisdom2 min to read

Hey brothers and sisters.

It might be because of heavy transits with Saturn, but recently and for a year so far I’m having troubles with drive, will power, sexual problems, and terribly low testosterone.

I’m also suffering from binge eating and it feels psychological, last year when I was away from home and family I used to starve a lot and eat high caloric food when I had the chance, due to having a stressful full-time job and working out, and lack of food and constant starvation I lost about 12-13 kgs, now I returned to home and I have more access to food but I got accustomed to junk food and also the psychological hunger feeling from starvation I can’t feel okay unless I’m eating junk food it feels like a “fix” and kind of an addiction.

Right now I started working full time from home and I don’t move as much, I try to workout again but i’m struggling with consistency, and also it doesn’t help that prices of food are through the roof and me and my family are having financial difficulties, so good food is much harder to access.

I feel stuck again but this time I’m feeling overweight, I gained back an extra 15 kgs since last year and I’m having troubles with drive and energy.

What workings or spells can I start to work on these difficulties?

My goal is to be fit, have a great muscle/weight ratio, and be consistent in the gym, have energy and passion to work full-time + meditate, take care of nutrition and personal matters, and also to get higher testosterone and drive.

I like Aquarius's advice above regarding squats, leg loading, walking and running should level out your natural testosterone to your personal normal.

Activity is something that many people are deprived of due to homework and cramped urban conditions in many places on the planet, then it becomes a habit and the lack of normal work of the lower muscles is looped with a lack of physical energy for walking, etc. You can exercise your will to remove these effects.

All you need is about 3 weeks of overcoming yourself at the initial stage. Try a contrast shower (alternating cold and hot 3-7 times), daily strength or anaerobic exercise. Your glands may not have sufficient activity and produce the minimum amount of hormones for you; their acceleration is a process in which you gradually demand more from yourself at each subsequent level, ultimately achieving overcompensation for what you need.

When it comes to spiritual exercises, I would recommend paying attention to breathing exercises. The excess oxygen/prana will provide a lot of free spiritual energy which you can use as fuel for all your tasks, thereby anchoring yourself at higher energy levels, gradually. Mars squares should also work well.

You do not need a garden etc. to earthen, there will be a good connection to the earth through concrete. If you do not like to walk barefoot on stone, or concrete there are also barefoot shoes as an option, there are even barefoot shoes that have copper in the sole to make certain you are earthed. These shoes are quite affordable if you can find them at the right place, Etsy is one of those places.

I too have had a lot of problems staying away from porn (I might have more problems in the future, though it doesn't look like it) as well, the thing that helped me a little while ago was not completely getting rid of it, but rather allowing it only after 10pm. This way you are not pushing yourself in a corner, still allowing it to happen but in a more controlled manner, i did allow myself to jerk off no matter the time, as long as i didn't use any outside stimuli.

Your Guardian can help to change how you feel & see yourself / the world differently, for example the first 2 years i came to Satan i was very depressed and lonely, I asked my GD to help me get a sense of pride, lo and behold the next day i felt a sense of pride for the first time in my life, i asked her to help me to get rid of loneliness, lo and behold since that moment i never felt lonely anymore even though i was alone. The Gods are there to assist us, to me they changed the way i see the world around me & myself, all you need to do is ask, even if you feel like you are not worth it.

The greatest blessing one can receive is their own, Thoroughly believe in thyself, do this and your soul will be your guiding star.

Hail Zeus, Hail Astarte, May you shine true for eternity!

Yes, you understand the situation.

My food habits are more psychological I feel restless and kind of miserable and empty, food has been conditioned as a fix and escapism for a while now.

I’m still trying to work on everything but I feel kind of stuck and also lost between everything, ambitions, loneliness, also responsibilities and stress and this feeling of emptiness too.

I don't know how bad your situation is with this eating disorder.

Are you really having episodes of uncontrolled eating? Like much food? Or just some junk food here and there?

Many people tend to eat junk food, sweets or chocolate when they are stressed out, and or had a bad day.
We know that this food will make us feel good, even if it comes with consequences.

How about you try to avoid to buy "Junk" food and sweets, so you never have them at home?
When you are outside, however, and with a friend at a coffee shop for example, sure. A muffin with a friend won't kill you.
But be aware that this also comes with a consequence.

Maybe also try next time when you want to eat junk food, to ask you this question "Am I really hungry? Or am I just feeling bad and need some relief?"
If you are not hungry, and just need some dopamine.. how about to try something else, that will make you feel good?
How about, instead of that chocolate bar, you call a dear friend of yours and talk for a while with them?
Or go to a family member, and talk to them. Or do anything that is also making you feel good.

If however, this is a severe episode of MUCH junk food that you stuff into yourself, I would advice you to really try a 72 hour water fast.

Yes, you will feel hungry, just drink water when you feel hungry. But no Calories. Just water.

After a 72 hrs fast, your dopamine receptors will have been reset. And changing your diet will be much easier.

Also going out for a run, with a friend for example, will provide you much dopamine. The healthy kind.

But when you fast, DO NOT work out!
Let your body heal during this time, detox and reset itself.

My country is pretty sunny even in winter.

The earthening one I’m not sure it’s possible to do here we don’t have gardens, parks or beaches nearby only concrete and dust, maybe I can visit a tropical city by summer.

With porn it’s a whole ordeal, I’m not able to quit at the moment, I have tried for years and it just made me miserable, I only felt like I never needed it when I was in a loving relationship, other than that I am not able to express sexuality healthily, I know it’s not the best it actually ruined me and I’m suffering and was suffering for years because of this.

Oh fuck.
You probably have a severe addiction problem, that is coming from certain areas of life and spreading into different aspects of your life.

You need to identify them and try to fix those addictions.

I’ve actually tried dopamine detoxing especially last year, I deactivated all social media accounts, etc.

It’s great! For the first month, I’m productive and peaceful.

Then comes all the grave feelings of emptiness, loneliness, and with the stress of my work they amplify and turn into something ugly.

But does the return to certain entertainment items actually make you feel better? They do have some value, but this has to be balanced with their cheap quality. I don't believe all digital entertainment must be trashed, but we have to be aware how it can create false rewards. While they may satiate part of what we are looking for, their low quality doesn't give us the full fulfillment we are desiring.

Try to think about what you are seeking out here: For example, if you wish to talk to people and this drives you to social media, try to push for more in-person or other more-engaging means of talking with others, avoiding social media doom scrolling or like-farming.

If you enjoy the construction aspect of a video game, maybe you would also enjoy construction of a physical item or puzzle, or use your discernment to pick games which don't abuse your dopamine. For example, avoid a mobile game, as they are usually terrible about this, but perhaps a computer simulator would be better.

Regarding porn, I agree that your situation is tough, however you can try to use less harmful methods of this. If not your imagination, then you would use just a still image, and so on. All of this is easier to handle for the brain than binging 10 different HD videos.

Dopamine detox is about tolerance management and although this helps, it doesn't fully solve what we are missing, if that makes sense. Look at your Sun sign, aspects, and 5th house to see what is truly fulfilling to you, then try to find constructive ways to achieve this.

-------------------------------

As others had stated, it appears your issues relate to a lack of fire. Remember that the Sun pertains to happiness, fulfillment, and creation of value. It also pertains to digestion because this is the physical manifestation of "creating value" from food. If your digestive fires become physically weakened, this can sap your appetite to the point where you only want cheaper carbs.

Do you see the relationship with the above entertainment here? With more solar power, we are able to "go bigger" and push for more, but with less, we may be inclined to go for a cheaper solution, as if we are missing the fuel to go further. Regarding food itself, healthy carbs like potato or carrots would be your friend here, as it is easier for your body to access this sugar, but it won't hurt you like other junk food will. There is even research on sweet potatoes being used for treatment of diabetes, and the physical structure looks similar to our own spleen.

Regarding sexual power, this comes from our martian energies, which can certainly become sapped if you are undergoing periods of high stress. Here we can see the importance of maintaining our energy and it is sad that our world does not respect this properly, creating conditions of exhaustion and fatigue.

My advice would be to build up your energy gradually. For example, when you are dead tired, maybe just do the breath of fire. Once you feel some motivation restored, you can switch to a Solar Kriya. Note, this can be modified to be much shorter, by dividing the times. The reason I would suggest these or similar exercises is because they are much shorter and easier to motivate yourself to perform, rather than a full routine.

Thank you brother Blitz, once again your words never dissappoint.

I was actually wondering about exactly this heavily.
Some time ago I went completely healthy, eating eggs, milk, oats, chicken, etc.

Strange thing is I usually have serious digestive issues, I thought eating healthy would fix this, but the days I ate healthy I just didn’t feel satisfied and I had stomachache, it felt like I’ve grown accustomed to junk and I would “feel better” with it than healthy whole foods.

Also, sometime ago I would randomly get the urge to do breath of fire, it just felt like a physical reaction to everything.

I will do these sun kriyas too since I had urges to do them before.

As I said I’m having financial difficulties food prices are really fucking tough especially good food and it’s nothing special too, I’m waiting for my paycheck and will probably buy an air fryer and start a cutting nutritional routine with protein and sweet potatoes.

I have like zero currency right now.

I believe that your body adapts to processing certain kinds of foods over time, like how lactose intolerance is far more common among brown people than white people(their guts are adapted to a certain kind of diet through their heritage) or how westerners often get food poisoning when eating in foreign countries.

Another thing is that unhealthy foods may be easier/quicker to digest because they have simple sugars, poor nutritional content, slick with oil, etc.

Anyway, there was one time that I was having digestive issues/discomfort and using the breath of fire helped with this.

Unfortunately this is not quite how it works.

Whenever you fry foods, you have carbs, which is just a chain of glucose molecules, and also hot fats.

There are some hall marks of ageing, for example one is shortened talomeres, they are the protective end caps on the chromosomes.
Then you also have plaque on the blood vessles and inside the cells. How old your bloods vessles are, determines how old you are.
And you also have an accumulation of AGE (advanced glycation end products) in your body.

As for frying, I can agree that too much could become unhealthy, but It's not like I'm speaking of deep frying, and the oil with which you fry is still the main culprit of health.

As for honey, I'm gonna go with old age wisdom about it rather than the university educated kid's: "ItS jUsT GluCoSe - fRuCtOsE" that I hear too often in "educated" circles.

I am reaching towards a green apple.

Meditation and Workings is like the wind of life that you are channeling, where you want to go. But you still need to stir your boat into the right direction and allign your sails.

honey is great…
If you eat it occasionally, have otherwise a healthy life style, move your body a lot, and have a very good metabolism.

If not, then it has negative effects, just like sugar, Coke, and even fruit juices. Fruit juices are also not ideal. Whole fruits are much better.

However, if your metabolism is sick, for example when you are fat, or a diabetic, honey is as bad for you as sugar.

Taking a spoonful of honey every day is recommended in Ayurveda, it's considered healthy (as long as it's real honey and not sugar syrup). I take a spoonful daily, and it helps combat sugar cravings. Bees make it, not factories.

Thank you.

I was thinking of doing a square, I’ve done sun squares before and they were awesome but i’ve heard Mars and Saturn squares especially can be harmful, i’ve an afflicted natal Mars too, would you recommend it as a positive influence?

Using Mars as a direct counter to your afflictions is one of the best, or the best option, spiritually speaking and you should not be afraid to utilize it.

Some key points.

- Be prepared for backlash, but continue despite any issues
- Take care that your routine has enough emphasis on cleaning and protection practices, including on chakras
- Repeat the process as it is unlikely to be completely fixed with one square or working
- Work with the opposite forces to achieve balance. Ie. When you work with Mars, work with the Moon sometime later before working with the same objective again.

Once you eat real honey, you realise just how fake the "honey" you were eating this whole time was. There are many producers of oak honey here in Greece and the difference in quality is phenomenal. It doesn't taste as good as "sugar syrup", but it is obviously superior.

I've actually had oak honey before, I was very surprised that honey could taste that strong! I think my favorite is wild mountain honey and forest honey :)

I have done them before without issues. However, they can invite conflict in the areas of your life where:

1. Aries is on the cusp
2. Mars is placed
3. The House Mars is transiting

For example, if Mars in your 4th house, you can have arguments at home. If Aries is on the cusp of the 10th house, you can have strife at work.

This usually happens when:
1. The energies aren't handled properly
2. Transiting Mars in on an aspect of fate

Conflict is not always a bad thing. Like square aspects between planets, when managed properly, they give you the necessary opposition that promotes growth. Someone without squares in their chart will have less external opportunities for growth and will have to create their own opportunities internally.

I don't know if I'm making sense to you.

Yes, I understand, thank you. There’s a really good date upcoming for mars square so I’m lucky.
