The
Shadow Side of
Wishing
BY BRYNA RENÉ HAYNES
I
t’s truth time, ladies: How much time
have you spent wishing something in
your life was different?
Personally, I have spent a lot of time and
energy on fruitless wishes in my life. I
called these wishes by many names:
prayers, visualizations, intentions, and
magick spells, to name a few. I made them
on paper, under the moon at midnight, and
on the street when no one was listening. I
employed every tool at my disposal both
deliberately and desperately, trying to
create more money, better relationships,
greater opportunities, and different
outcomes with the power of my mind.
I wanted to control my life and create
what I’d always been told was possible
for me, and these many forms of wishing
were where I’d been instructed to start.
