Short version: this is a prayer practice, or ritual to invoke the Wrath of Christ against those who have borne false witness against the trans/queer community.
Consumption Time: 5-10 minutes
Creation Time: 2 yrs ruminating, plus 25 hours in writing and video productions
Warning: This may cause cognitive dissonance and will unavoidably kick some people in the religious trauma. The intention is to protect, not cause pain, but painful ground has to be tread to fight off the spiritual and social harm.
Hell Curious Spirits!
I haven’t suddenly gone Christian. I’m a spirit worker, and that means that stuff like religion has a certain fluidity to it. The longer you practice spirituality in a world that includes the unseen, the more the unseen breaks down a lot of the rules we’re taught to think of as hard and fast. One of those rules that gets dissolved?
That there’s a religion that is the right answer.
Please do NOT assume that I’m saying all religion is wrong. It’s more like everyone is a cultural angle towards a force called faith, and faith is a force in the universe, independent of any religion. At least, that’s how I experience. You can’t just jump to that conclusion; it takes a lot of mistakes and experiences to arrive at the spirit worker's view of the universe. It’s a perspective not meant for everyone, and it’s ok that it’s not.
Because of that fluidity, when a spirit voice that identifies as Jesus makes a request, and the spirits I work with vet those spirit voices, nod and say, “Yeah, that’s him,” I’m inclined to listen to the request. I’m not obligated to say yes - spirit worker privilege. But I had put out a prayer about how to protect trans folk from the volume of lies told about them, and that’s the answer I got. It took me two years to build up the nerve, and six months to put together the entire ritual and prayer practice.
Lovely Curious Spirits of Substack, I give you here the short version of this spell. It is here for you to use, as fits your practice - or not use. If you’d like the full text, it’s over on the Spirited Witch Patreon.
