There are many advantages of having social media platforms. This is especially true during this New World pandemic era, or what those of us who are “in the know” commonly refer to as “the new normal,” which sad to say folks, is here to stay. For example, social media helps one to communicate quickly and effortlessly with his or her family, friends, acquaintances, business networks, and for those who have online businesses (or are preparing to launch one), with his or her current and prospective clients and customers.

But, as we all know, with the good comes the bad. And there is no exception to this rule even with social media, especially when it comes to creating your own personal and business social media platforms to engage with “the public” online. Having said that, despite some of the supposed good reasons for using social media, there are countless bad reasons or downsides to using social media as well. In this blog post, I will be discussing the 3 reasons why I have greatly limited my engagement and interaction on social media. And if you are a high vibrational empath, healer, and a witch like me, why you should too!

The 1st Reason Why I Have Greatly Limited My Engagement On Social Media Is Because Of Unwarranted Heavy Surveillance!

Yes! Big Brother is here to stay folks! And social media apps have definitely helped “Him” to spy on our asses, right thru the free and readily available apps on our phones and other electronic devices! However, I must say I’m not really surprised about this though. After all, I have been well aware of the infringing upon of our rights of privacy ever since “the 9-11 Situation.” And that infringement on our individual and collective privacy has been steadily encroaching upon us and into our lives up to this very current day.


At first, I never really considered myself to be “important enough” for anyone to take the time to monitor my social media platforms because I am not a terrorist. Nor am I a public figure or celebrity, or someone seeking fame and notoriety to become one. For the most part, outside of being an empath, a healer, and a witch, I live a very introverted and "vanilla" lifestyle with my blue-eyed hubby and our fur and fishy babies! * chuckles* 😊 So, like I said before, I don’t consider my lifestyle or myself to be that important for someone to want to constantly spy on me by monitoring my posts and activities on my social media platforms.

That is, until I came to the acknowledgement that apparently, I am indeed “important enough!” This is certainly the case, according to one delusional and obsessive music industry bum in particular, who has considered me “important enough” to stalk me online (and spiritually) for well over ten plus years now through his fake social media troll accounts! *Ole weirdo ass!* 😡

So, my experience with “the dark side of social media” has helped me to realize why it has become important for me to greatly limit my engagement and interaction on my social media platforms which were initially created for the purpose of marketing my YouTube tarot and witchy soul music channel. I had also created my social media platforms to promote my future online spiritual business.

However, from my experience, creating my social media platforms have done little to nothing to effectively market and promote my YouTube channel, or my future spiritual business after all! It has however, made me vulnerable to being stalked online and cybertrolled by the stalker, and his "harem of happy hoes and flying monkeys.” Posting on my social media platforms have also invited this trolling ass freak and others like him to try to “copycat” my authentic online persona and swag, and to try to steal my creative and intellectual ideas for themselves. This is because they are too mindless, lazy, and untalented to come up with their own ideas. And folks, there is only one thing worse than a cybertrolling ass freak, and that is a mindless, lazy and talentless one! *Let the Coven say ase’!* 😉

In fact, when I finally made the decision to unfollow and block all the accounts that gave me a “not so right” feeling, I discovered that 90% of my social media “subscribers” were either inactive troll accounts that were created to spy on me and to track my posts from the cybertrolling ass freak and his online stooges, or the accounts were literally “auto-generated bots,” as in not even real human beings! I was so disgusted to learn this.

I was even more appalled to learn what a sham and an illusion social media really is! This is because it sends a false image to onlookers that a person is more popular or relevant than they actually are. This is also because half of the "subscribers" of these so-called popular or relevant people are bought and paid for through social media marketing app services. That’s right folks! Their countless numbers of “followers” are nothing more than “cyber bots.” 😒

The other half of their followers or subscribers are comprised of groupies and stalkers, nosey ass, narcissistic family members, frenemies, former employers and workmates that you thought that you had removed from your life; and yes, that big-headed ass “Big Brother” that everybody has heard about, but never sees. But trust and believe that he sees your ass, thanks to your social media! Lol! 


So, soon after I began quietly putting two and two together and coming to this realization, I placed my Twitter and IG accounts on private. In fact, I have rarely been posting on them since this discovery because I have no energy or desire to make posts that no one outside of the creepy ass cyberstalker, the social media bots, or the creativity thieves would be reading anyways! Because trust me folks, I can think of way better things to do with my time and energy. I can also think of far more efficient ways to promote my YouTube channel and my future online business. That is, if I even decide to launch my business online, or if I will just decide to keep it word of mouth and largely private and offline as I have been doing so for many years now. This is because I am beginning to wonder if launching my spiritual business to the "online public" is even worth the impending hassle that running an online business could potentially bring.

The 2nd Reason Why I Have Greatly Limited My Engagement On Social Media Is Because Of The Increased Psychic Attacks And The Tapping Into Of Other People’s Negative Energy That Has Become Downright Draining!

As a very psychic and intuitive channeler, empath, healer, practitioner and witch, it is very easy for me to feel (as well as hear, see, smell and sometimes even taste) the emotions, entities, castings and energies of others. Now, these gifts are very useful for me in my service work and purpose as a spiritual practitioner, diviner, channeler, spiritual advice counselor, energy healer and creative. But on a personal level, it can be very burdensome. This is especially the case when you are able to pick up on all of these toxic and bombarding energies online via social media from individuals who are jealous of you and/or who are cyberstalking you on your social media platforms and sending you the “evil eye.” 😒

Unfortunately, this is very real for myself and for those like me who are extremely “tapped in” and understand that energies and spirits have no boundaries to time and space, whether that space be online or offline. This is why it so important for me and others who are spiritually-gifted to practice excellent “spiritual hygiene” and ritual practices for protection, cleansings, and offensive and defensive warfare magick.

Now, more than ever, individuals who have no connection to Spirit have become very disillusioned, very dark, and very vampiric and desperate to attack and latch on to those like myself who are high vibrational as well as those like myself who possess the light of Spirit inside of us. And they are using social media as the gateway to do so! They are using their social media to literally try to energy harvest, or to siphon our energy by obsessing over our posts, photos, and creative artistry on our social media platforms. They are also constantly trying to bait us into non-sensical and circular arguments and verbal attacks to steal our energy and to lower our vibration by trolling us.

And, as if that isn't bad enough, they are constantly trying to hack into our accounts and infect our devices with spyware or other viruses! Moreover, they are constantly trying to steal our creative ideas and projects, our followers and customers, and our very business and personal identity online! And for the extremely sick ones, they are copying our photos online and using them as a “point of contact” to cast black magick and domination sex spells against us. I mean, it has gotten ridiculous because most of these degenerates are unemployed, underemployed or “unemployable,” which means that, unlike you and me, they have entirely too much time on their hands to engage in their special brand of cybertrolling fuckery! 😠

So, as a result, what do they do? They obsess over those of us who are spiritually-gifted, successful and for the most part, very happy and content in our lives! And, they constantly throw evil eye towards us and try to tap into our energy. Some of them even attempt to invade our everyday, personal lives via our social media platforms and the internet as a whole. And I don’t know about you guys, but I for one simply do not have time for the social media trolling and cyberstalking bullshit!

I also find that being really “tapped in” causes me to become too bombarded by the toxic energies of some of these very unhinged individuals and their never-ending drama that they post online because they are using social media as a platform to exorcise their demons and to dump all of their toxic emotions and trauma onto everyone who sees it to become affected by it and compelled to involve themselves in it. And personally, I think that there is a very thin line between being a social media influencer or content creator and being a narcissistic, selfie-taking-social media-posting-asshole who did not get enough attention and validation from family or peers growing up. So, they’re using their social media platforms like a massive pacifier to overcompensate!


So, my overall conclusion that I have reached about social media? Social media is an illusion! And it blurs the line between reality and individual and collective delusion which is not good for a person's mental health and emotional well-being. Social media also creates a false sense of intimacy and familiarity with mere strangers and/or celebrities whom you do not personally know from a can of paint and never will. But, you feel as though because you can tweet them or read their posts (or they yours) that you have some kind of real and authentic “connection” with them.

Unfortunately, many delusional individuals feel this way about the celebrities that they follow on social media. Little do they know that these celebs don’t give a damn about them, or if whether they live or die! Harsh truth folks. But it is a fact! It is also a  fact that the only thing that these so-called celebs and entertainers do care about when it comes to you is you paying them attention! Because your attention (and energy) pays them by keeping them relevant!

Your attention also feeds them spiritually and energetically and helps them to manifest wealth which also helps them to remain relevant and “rich.” Or, at the very least it helps them to maintain the façade of being rich! This is because 95% of those mofos are broke AF! *lol* So what they are really doing is using their social media platforms that you interact on or view obsessively to tap into your energy and to steal your creative and intellectual ideas and projects! And to think that you had no idea. Until now. Oops! It seems as though I have let the proverbial cat out of the bag! And to think that you thought that these so-called celebs and “stars” were really talented! *chuckles* 😉

Come to find out that many of them are lurking on your social media to steal your ideas because you are the real, authentic talent, not them! And you actually thought that social media was helpful to you by making it easier for you to be able to reach out to your favorite celebs and to maybe one day be “discovered.” But in actuality, they are using social media to discover your unsigned, no-named ass, so that they can still your shit! Lol! *I’ma let you chew on that cud for a while* because I’m sure you had no idea just how deep the social media rabbit hole is!

The 3rd Reason Why I Have Greatly Limited My Engagement On Social Media Is Because I Have Opted To Spend More Quality Time in Nature & With My Family Rather Than Spending It With Strangers, Social Media Bots, Stalkers & “Big Brother”!

One thing that this post-pandemic era has taught me is how precious and fleeting life is, and that it is to be enjoyed and lived “offline” not online! But more importantly than that, I have re-discovered the necessity for me to spend more quality time with the individuals that matter to me the most. My husband matters to me. My in-laws or family via marriage matter to me. My animal children matter to me. My intimate circle of private clients and customers matter to me. Spending time and meditating, praying, and doing yoga and magick rituals by the trees and the water matter to me. Nature and animals and my loved-ones sustain me. People and their toxic, clingy and needy-ass energy drain me! So, I have made the conscious choice to spend more time where I am sustained and less time where I am being drained. It’s really that simple!

In fact, it has become more important for me considering my line of work to not only greatly limit my social media interaction and engagement--at the time of me writing this post I am only posting on my YouTube channel--but to also limit my interaction and engagement with people both online and offline! For example, I used to joke with hubby about how I just wanted to live “off grid” on some beautiful land where there are more animals and nature to interact with than humans!

But this thought has become more of a desire and a possibility as hubby sees how increasingly difficult it has become to get me to pack up and drive back to our home in the city after having a nice, quiet evening in our cozy little cabin cottage “in the sticks” as we call it. Or, when we spend time with hubby’s parents in our family villa and make a weekend of fishing, ATVing, rifle shooting and walking along the trails with our fur children.



There is something about removing myself from the nurturing and soothing environment of nature, and its animals, and the ability to look up into the sky and actually see the stars because there is no downtown skyline or streetlights! And the only “noise” you hear are crickets, frogs, cicadas, and other creatures that I don’t know the sounds of instead of the blaring sounds of fire trucks, random car alarms going off, and ramped up motorcycles zooming down the boulevard along with other sounds indicative of “urban living.”

I find myself gravitating more towards the rural, semi-off grid lifestyle, and I am pretty sure that this is where I am headed. Where we as in my family are headed. Most healers, practitioners and witches move away from the city and offline more and more for the very same reasons that I have outlined here in this blog. I must admit that I used to think that it was so cliché to hear about my fellow witches moving “in droves” to the rural areas, or to the mountains or forests to live either semi-off grid or fully remote and off grid. And I now understand why.

There are simply too many lower vibrational people on this planet now with their toxic, dense energies, and if you do not disengage from these people, their energies can become too heavy and all too consuming. And unfortunately, social media gives these kinds of people too much access to those of us, high vibrational empaths, healers and witches, who do not want to spend our lives and every waking moment of the day transmuting those dark, heavy energies! Especially if we are not getting paid to do so (and for others of us, even if we are).

So, for these reasons and others not mentioned here, I have greatly limited my interaction and engagement with social media. And if you are a highly evolved empath, healer, and witch like me, then you should too!

So, how about you? Have you decided to greatly limit your engagement and interaction on Social Media?
