The Ethics of Binding Spirits: My Personal Thoughts & Practices

Working with spirits is one of the most intimate, beautiful, and at times controversial parts of my practice. Over the years, I’ve been asked many times about binding spirits—what it means, how it works, and whether it’s ethical. Because I offer custom conjurings and bindings, I feel it’s important to be transparent about my approach and share my personal thoughts on this delicate subject.

What Does “Binding” Mean?

Dream Work with Spirits: Opening the Gateway of Sleep

Sleep is not just a time of rest—it is a sacred passage. In the dream world, the veils between realms grow thin, and our spirits whisper truths that cannot always reach us in waking life. By intentionally opening this gateway, you can invite your spirit companions, guides, and guardians into your dreams, deepening your bond and receiving guidance in the language of symbols, sensations, and stories.
