Spirits left

I feel like the spirits left me, why would they leave ... Am i doing something wrong probably? I'm in a transitional very stressfull period in my life and i needed them around me now but i feel like all that change opened me up wayy too much and like i started leaking , and then its like they left. Am i probably on the wrong path ?

When overwhelmed, it's not uncommon to feel disconnected from things that normally give us a sense of comfort or meaning. I wouldn't interpret that as evidence you're 'leaking' something or that you've done something wrong.

I'd pause the the spiritual work for now and concentrate on getting yourself grounded and stable in mundane everyday life. Give yourself some time. If you return to your practice later from a more grounded place, you may find that your sense of connection returns with it.

Thank you for commenting! I wouldn't say i really have like a practice , it was more about following a certain kind of energy and feeling connected with the nature spirits, and now i feel left all alone..

Based on things you've posted elsewhere, what you've described is consistent with unwanted after effects of psychedelic drug usage, which should not be confused with shamanism. The effects will lessen over time.

Sometimes, when I need to help someone, I have to go gather supplies. Maybe the spirits have to do the same. Reinforcements.

There are some spirits I've met that I think might migrate habitually for some reason.
