I need to make some changes in my life and I have identified that deep feelings of powerlessness and helplessness are an obstacle that is getting in my way in several different challenges I am facing. Please can you advise on what I might do from a basic occultism or natural magic perspective? Directions for specific meditation topics, prayers, journalling, herbs or other natural substances, affirmations, or whatever you recommend would all be welcome. Or whether you think this is not something to address in this way, if that's what you think.
I have realised I have a lot to sort out in my life and I know need to get to the root of some of these problems. I haven't yet seen what I need to do to address this deep difficulty and I got an intuition from my prayer time that it might be good to ask for help from you here on Magic Monday. I know I can receive divine help if I can open myself up to it, and I know I also have to put in effort myself to make real change and let that divine help in and allow it to change me. I'm struggling to understand what might best help me with what to focus on in the way of addressing and changing this sense of powerlessness and helplessness.
Positive energy would also be gratefully received. Also if others here who are kindly intended would like to send energy or add your prayers to my own that would be welcome too, I know I welcome the opportunity to pray for blessings for others posting here when people ask for that (and I love Tunesmyth's weekly prayer list).
Where I'm with magic/mysticism/occultism: I have been practicing SoP daily for almost exactly one year, and was using a banishing ritual of the cross daily for about six months before that. I finished part 1A and part 1B of the Society of the Inner Light correspondence courses last year so I have done a bit of basic discursive meditation, but I've not felt able to pursue their courses further. I have recently begun using a few herbal teas for incorporating blessing into my house cleaning as recommended by Violet on her dreamwidth blog. I have a devotional relationship with the deity I call Saviour, the Holy One. I have been attending a traditional Church of England worship service for two months in the parish where I live here in middle England.
