This should honestly be required reading for anyone getting started in Magick (and probably just anyone involved in Magick) https://twitter.com/liminal_warmth/status/1297639813726658560">https://twitter.com/liminal_w...

Recently been getting back into more frequent practise of Magick after a bit of hiatus and a couple of times I& #39;ve noticed myself going a bit insane after doing it, I& #39;m realising now that it& #39;s because some of the basic things I was doing back when I started I& #39;m *no longer doing*

All of the safeguarding stuff that you so desperately need when you start out, I wasn& #39;t doing because "oh I& #39;ve been practising magick for years! I don& #39;t need to do all this anymore!" NO. I need it especially now because I& #39;ve taken such a long break and forgotten all the safety

A couple months back I made the conscious decision to start right at the beginning: re-learn grounding, casting circles, banishing, make sure that my fundamentals are still up to scratch before I start doing any kind of spells. Turns out I& #39;d basically forgotten my fundamentals.

Anyway, since I went over my fundamentals again I& #39;ve not been going insane despite practising magick, so that& #39;s pretty nice

So to reiterate, anyone interested or involved in magickal practice should read this thread
