Wolf Shifter/Shape Shifter spell

Have you tried breaking a brick wall down by slamming your head against it? Just believe and keep bashing your head into that brick wall. Did you hurt yourself? Well, that just means you are not trying hard enough. Keep believing you can break through that brick wall with nothing but your head, and if anyone tells you that you cannot break that brick wall, then they are just haters who do not believe. I mean, have they even tried breaking down a brick wall by smashing their skull against it for hours?

Please do not hit your head against a brick wall, I was using this as an example, not as a suggestion.

We know certain things are and are not possible because we studied and gained the knowledge through the years. Magik on the physical is a natural energy that brings natural change. Humans cannot will themselves to shapeshift by nature, ergo Magik will not either. It defies natural law, which governs Magik. If you refuse to listen to those who know more about Magik and attempt one of these spells, nothing is going to happen. Nobody is going to track you down and force you to stop, but nobody is going to say ''I told you so'' either. We are simply stating facts so new members do not waste their time on fake spells.

Now, if you wish to work with astral werewolves or animal spirits, you can. If you wish to use the symbolism of werewolves in your craft, you can. If you wish to astrally or mentally shift into a werewolf, you can as well. There are ways to tweak these broken spells to make them work. You can shift your expectations to align with reality. You can still feel empowered by werewolves. The only thing those witches are trying to do is explain no amount of belief will change reality. Magik is a neutral energy that brings natural change. Spells change the vibration of this energy to attract or repel the desired outcome. This energy only effects energy. It does not do physical changes like shapeshifting.

Hello, Supernova, I see you want my attention. Since I can tell communication with you will be pointless, I will just give a quick rundown of your points and never speak to you again because I do not feed attention seeking trolls. And before you claim you are not one, why else would you post any of this? There is a difference between a random question, valid criticism, and a poorly worded hissy fit.

For starters, do not refer to Native people of Turtle Island as the Indians. Especially when you are perpetuating a stereotype. Yes, there are certain tribes who believe in transformation into an animal form however, this is not something every Indigenous person can do or believe in. Those who do believe it is a gift only the wisest shaman of the tribe can learn. So, let us assume in this instance it is possible. Even if it is possible, which it is not, only a handful of spiritual masters can do it. No spell you found online will make you a werewolf. Do you honestly believe a shaman would post the most sacred ritual on a forum site that is primarily visited by teenagers?! Because if you do, I should warn you about secret messages in songs when you play the recording backwards. And while I am confused by your devil worshiper line, I assume you think they are blessed with satanic powers? No. You will not gain special powers if you work with a certain deity. Those who work with Lucifer work with him to heal trauma, not for nefarious intent. As for a literal Satan, the number who pray to the Christian devil is incredibly low. Most Satanists are Atheist's.

Belief: an acceptance that a statement is true or that something exists. trust, faith, or confidence in someone or something.

Now that everyone has read the definition of belief, you will see it is an acceptance of somethings with an absence of proof. Belief is what you think, your practice/craft is what you do.

Conspiracy trite, conspiracy trite, mediocre attempt at a taunt, skipping all of that. Tadashi is the name of one of my pets. I could not think of a username and saw him and went that works. Believe me, if I could change my name, I would go with something more Germanic in nature. As for your question of my heritage, I am a combination of UK European (Ireland, England, Wales and Scotland respectably) and Indigenous Canadian (Metis) since you asked.

Lmfao! Breaking your skull over and over makes it stronger?! Thank you, that has been one of the best laughs I have had on this site in a while. Racism aside, that is not remotely true, and not even close to any martial arts practice.

There are things beyond our comprehension, but not the nonsense you claim to be real. I hope you accept reality and learn Real Magik one day. But, until I see any effort on your part, this will be the only time I entertain you, so do not bother me again. Blessed be.

Please don't spam the comments, 4supernova. If something can be contained in a single reply, keep it in one reply. [posting sentences to add to a point, multiple posts for replies to multiple people or other posts which could all go into one is considered spam and against site rules. Only corrections and occasional ''Forgot this point'' double posts are okay. [I'm also including your below comment since you appear to repeat yourself in both, rendering half of your comments pointless] Also, there's a strict ''No roleplaying'' rule on this site you're close to breaking with your unfounded claims. Please review the site rules to ensure you don't make any other rule violations that could get your account gagged.

As for your comments directed at me, please read any above explanations from myself, Draq, HearthWitch, Prsna [User393658], Rhodendron, Tadashi, or Weide as I'm not in the mood to repeat myself. As for my username, I've explained this A LOT on this site [might just post it on my profile if it would help] when I was little, I was babysat by a Japanese lady who taught me some Japanese and introduced me to the culture which I've been fascinated in ever since [yes, I like anime, but I also know the language, history, and culture of Japan because it's one of the thing's I studied growing up] As a little kid, I made up a story about some cats, each one was just named ''Number cat'' [nekoichi, nekoni, so on] and my favourite was Nekoshi [forth cat] and would use that name a lot in stories and games I'd play. In middle school, I was going through a bit of a goth phase and learned ''Shi'' was another word for ''Death'' and the character's name became ''Death cat.'' I added the ''Ma'' to the end when I learned about its meaning as this land of nothing place in Japanese folklore. So, all through my teens [and to this day because branding] my username across platforms is Nekoshema [the ''she'' being spelled ''she'' and not ''she'' was because I was a girl and wanted people to know that. Because 12] So, there you go, the history of my username. If you find a Nekoshema somewhere online, there is a 99% chance it's me [which means I really should delete my more embarrassing fanfics before Google rats me out for stuff I posted in my teens] However, I hope you're not trying to pull an ''On behalf of the Japanese, how dare you use Nihongo for a username'' because that's ridiculous. Japanese isn't a closed practice, nobody is claiming to be Japanese, and the only people who are getting hurt are those who actually know Japanese and are cringing at the bad Japanese names on display. Believe me, you're doing more cultural damage by perpetuating the indigenous stereotypes, not only the inappropriate term but the tribe who believes in shapeshifting becoming ''All natives believe this.'' The Quileute tribe does believe the greatest shaman can learn to shapeshift, but it does not mean everyone can and every indigenous person believes this culturally. The Quileute have been fighting to undo this stereotype popularized by Stephanie Meyer but people keep coming to their towns and asking about it. [blessing and a curse, really, as it gets tourists which generates money]

This is not a harmless path to follow, and requires incredible study, understanding, and a firm hold on perspective. One that must be very carefully maintained throughout one's chosen journey, no matter what journey you are following. So allow .e to be very deliberate and clear on a few things. (This is going to be a long one, so strap in.)

Historically and presently, Shapeshifting has indeed been recognized and acknowledged as a genuine practice. -

however

Such changes are achieved temporarily through use of ritual, often involving intense dance and mind-altering substances along with willful mimicry of how the animal moves and behaves in order to draw forward what the animal represents. The enacted would also at times wear a costume, usually made from as many parts of the actual animal as possible. Feathers, pelts, masks, ribbons and beads and other decorations. The goal being to embody the nature of the animal in order to invoke its qualities or to control the animal in some way. (For example as a form of prayer to bring the hunting herds to the tribe or to set then on a path to being found).

While it has been described by those observing such a ritual as the invoker becoming as the animal, they do not physically change in any way. They costume as the animal. They move like the animal, they enter the -headspace- of the animal. But in no way. At all, do they physically become the animal in body.

As a side note, bezerker practices are definitively the same. Trained elite warriors who are stronger and more skilled than average as a result of training and experience, who may or may not have used hallucinogenic substances along with emotional and mental evoking of anger, determination, or otherwise 'pumping up' to stimulate adrenaline and bypass survival instincts (along with pain reactions) to fight more effectively through brutality, intimidation, and sheer force of will. To become as a bear. Not a bear itself.

To physically shapeshift, in any form or capacity, for any length of time, is absolutely and unequivocally impossible through the use of will/magic. Period. It is as constant as gravity. So long as a particle has any measure of mass, it will be drawn to any larger measure of mass. It is intrinsic to how mass works. No matter how fiercely you believe you can fly, jump, and you will land.

However

Through dream work, astral travel, and mental exploration one -can- shapeshift on levels that are outside the physical. Through practice, meditation, and apication of purpose one can engage in magical and meditative practices to explore the more fluid energetic forms and mental/observational perspectives of a non-human image. The critical part that no-one wants to hear, though, is that this is an inward journey. Not an outward expression. And it takes years of progressive practice and study to reach a point where such a thing can be readily explored by an individual with ease.

This discussion began focused on the idea of performing a singular spell and having that be sufficient to effect fantastic physical change. Both premises in which this spell (and other spells like it) is built is inherently flawed and will not be accomplished as stated, to the ends desired. Declaring symptoms common in daily life does not change that. False complexity/elaborate construction does not change that. Belief does not change that. The only thing that will change that is the would-be seeker changing their perspective and effort into a direction/alternative that would be possible to achieve. This spell, does not work. There is no light-switch. It is a journey. An internal mental/emotional and spiritual exploration with no physical bearing.

I rarely bring this up as a part of conversation, unless there is good reason. However because 'belief beating reality' has been a running theme I feel my experiences and learning are uniquely qualifying (and the reason I chose to weigh-in finally to begin with.) I am a part of the Otberkin communities. Both in and also of it for over twenty-five years as a Draconic.

That means that I have spent over half of my life not only believing I am at least partly something other-than human, that belief has held firm for the entirety of those twenty-five years despite my best efforts to prove myself wrong. I am not Draconic because I want to become one. I am Draconic because I am unable to convince myself otherwise. It is a basic fact within my own mind. So intrinsic I don't really even explore it any more because it is me... that's it. Nothing fancy or special. A belief so natural that there is no convincing to be had. No change to make or strive for because it is already there. A part of me as natural and integrated as being able to look at my feet and wiggle my toes. And yet there is no effort I could ever expend that would express that Draconic nature externally in any physical way no matter how microscopic or temporary.

Where it can, and does, reflect is in the nature and Self image that occurs behind the eyes. Predispositions and attitudes. Self-imagery and visualizations used when exploring or utilizing spiritual practices. Methods and forms used in dream-work and astral journeying, healing/energy work and auras. It does not reflect in life. It reflects in how we experience it.

AplhaChange, please read over the site rules, multiple posts which could be contained to one as well as claiming the impossible is possible [it's considered roleplaying] is against site rules. Failure to adhere to the rules can result in your account being gagged

It's been explained multiple times before [not only on this spell, but elsewhere on the site] why physical transformation is not possible with real magick, what is possible with real magick, and how you can actually utilize werewolves in your craft. Werewolves are astral beings. You call on them like any other spirit in your craft. You can also use their imagery in your craft to symbolically call on their energy. You can mentally, astrally, and spiritually shift from human to other beings. Physically, it is not possible. Magick on the physical has very strict rules and structure. [this is why most of us ''non-believers'' as we've been dubbed advocate astral projection as it is possible on other planes of existence] Magick on the physical doesn't contradict nature. A human can't think ''I'm going to be a fox'' and then physically morph into a fox, but we can think about becoming a fox when we begin a meditation and mentally become a fox during the meditation. All you have to do is shift your perspective a little and you can work with werewolves in your practice [sadly, too many dig in their heels and refuse to budge despite all the evidence those who have been practicing longer have provided] as for that link, quora isn't a reputable source of information [I'd argue Wikipedia has more credibility] it can be used to speak with likeminded people, but evidence isn't UPG [unverified personal gnoses] You can use UPG, I use UPG in my craft all the time, but when it comes to educating new members on Witchcraft, and providing evidence for your claims, a forum where someone goes ''I agree with you'' isn't evidence.

The above article is about werewolf magick if you're interested in it. You won't physically become a wolf/man hybrid, but shifting and transformation aren't physical on the physical plane. You can dress as one as you go through the spiritual process, but you won't physically go from human to animal.

Regarding the rules, I don't know why some are the way they are. Some make sense like no roleplaying [this is a site for actual witches and witchcraft can be confusing, so the less misinformation the better. As for these fake spells, unfortunately, they bring traffic to the site, which brings ad revenue, and keeps the site free] Spamming replies can make it difficult to find information. All caps, I'm not entirely sure on that one. I'd assume it's similar to no textspeak or using any language other than English [it makes replies easier to understand] Breaking any of these rules can get your account gagged by a mod without warning [and arguing with a mod on a said decision can get your new account gagged too] I personally feel bad people can log in and discover their account has been gagged without warning, so if I see a minor rule violation, I give the user a heads up [if it's something like swearing, scams or threatening members, however, instant report to keep the community safe]

@AlphaChange, you claim you and your friends can physically shapeshift [or at least it's possible] I know this isn't possible because of decades of research not only in witchcraft but werewolves [I've been a huge fan of werewolves since a kid] the lack of physical evidence, and the fact people can lie indiscriminately online, leads me to conclude what you're saying is untrue. Also, the human ego is a powerful thing [this doesn't mean you're a narcissist or anything, the ego in psychology refers to your personality. the part of you that feels special. Even if you have low self-esteem, your ego is the part of you that refuses to admit you might be awesome] so if you come to a site like this and start claiming the impossible is possible, you might gain a few ''Haters'' who point out why what your claim isn't true, but you'll also get a bunch of praise from those who want to believe. [And those of us saying why something isn't possible hurts their ego, causing them to lash out and double down] Point is, I know what is and isn't possible, and I worry those who don't will see these false claims and it does more harm to them in the long run. [But, if you still insist what you're saying is true and refuse to accept evidence to the contrary, that's your choice. I've provided information and my explanation, and since neither one of us will budge, this is where the conversation ends. I wish you all the best]
