Nothing is called magic or witchcraft. It is all hoax.

Hi. Sorry you are feeling this way. As a disclaimer, I am a born-again Christian with strong faith. I don't believe we should be interacting with tarot cards or attempting to read them. They should never be used for divination / fortune-telling, which is expressly forbidden in the Old Testament. The spiritual world is very real and we should be very careful about opening new age and occult doors to it. I have been hospitalized twice and have first-hand experience dealing with demons in the ward. I would suggest you throw them away and swear them off and go to God in prayer. Ask yourself why you began using them and why you have this interest in tarot / astrology, and then see if whatever drove you to them you can instead use to drive you to God. The good news is God is real, loves you and wants relationship with you. We can truly achieve inner peace, meaning, purpose, joy and complete victory over OCD through Christ. Romans 12:2 tells us we can totally "renew" our mind in Christ. God bless.

Do not worry. You are doing nothing wrong. And remember, different people different opinions. You do not need more pressure to be put on you either by others or by yourself. And for all who are quick to preach. Remember, the Bible was written by humans, not God him/herself. Live and let live. And above all don't judge others for such trivial things as playing with Tarot cards. There are so many truly terrible things out there that one can use all their judging energy for. I hope your ocd gets friendlier with you and lets you calm down and relax. You are not harming anyone with magic powers. Ony yourself with ocd's anxiety powers. Be happy. Breathe! đ

Hi this is my first time posting on here. I wasn't sure if I should because I want to make sure I'm not seeking reassurance because I heard that makes ocd worse. I don't want to talk about what my ocd problem was, but basically I was really upset about a religious ocd problem that I know isn't true. I'm feeling a lot better about it now, but when it was bad I decided to try and get better on my own. I read about ERP therapy and how you're supposed to make a list of your ocd problems, from least distressing to most. So I wrote them down on two pieces of paper. At first I started with the simple ones, like looking for spiders before leaving the room. I have a tendency to look for spiders before leaving a room but lately I've been trying not to anymore. Then I decided to try and do one of the hard things. It was a religious ocd problem. I decided to start simple, and just write the problem down on a piece of paper. So I went downstairs and got some paper. But then I thought, oh no, my ocd is probably not going to like this. What do I do with the paper once I write it down? If I think what I wrote down is bad and going to upset God and I will go to hell, (even though I know logically it's not), my ocd is probably going to freak out if I throw away the paper. It probably won't calm down unless I erase it. So I just decided to not write it down on a paper, and just type it on my phone instead. So I did, I typed it on my phone. So, even though I didn't write anything down on the paper, now it feels like that peice of paper is bad. I feel like it's connected to the problem I was having, and I was so upset I called my mom crying asking her what to do. Eventually I decided to just put the paper back with the rest of the paper downstairs, but I'm still upset. I feel like I have to throw away all the paper downstairs, the pencil I was going to use to write down the problem, and the eraser I was going to use in case I needed to erase anything. It feels like if I use any of those items I will make God angry and go to hell. I know I shouldn't do this though, so I'm not going to. I don't know what to do with the papers where I wrote down my ocd problems. They are on my desk and I'm too afraid to move them. And if I put them in my desk I'm afraid they will get mixed up with other papers. I guess I can do whatever I want with them. I think I'll put them in a folder or binder and if I make any more ocd papers I can just put them in there. I'm just really confused on how to move forward. Right now, I'm too afraid to use the papers, pencil, or eraser for anything. I feel like I can't write on them, draw on them, or anything. It's even making me feel like I can't make digital art. It's making me feel like I can't do a lot of things. I guess what I have to do is just do whatever I want to, because I know the ocd isn't true and doesn't make sense.

I made the mistake of asking the cards if im a p. I tried to read them but then just put them in chat gpt but asked it as if I was doing the reading on someone else. Chat gpt literally said âThis does not scream âinnocent person with intrusive thoughts.â This looks like a person with disturbing urges who is either ignoring, hiding, or justifying them â which is dangerous. There may be mental health issues involved (7 of Cups, 2 of Pentacles reversed), but the spread shows accountability is being avoided, and harm could be done if things go uncheckedâ So basically I got bad cards. I am sad and worried that this means something bad about me because my cards are usually right about a lot but have been wrong about very few things but I donât know how to feel. If anyone is super into this stuff can you help me please?
