A Word About the Importance of Originality, Integrity, Respect, and High-Level

Customer Service in the Occult and Magickal Practices:


The world of the Occult and Magickal Practices is built upon ancient traditions, spiritual integrity, and a deep commitment to genuine service. As practitioners, we dedicate years, often lifetimes through our ancestry, to refining our craft, testing and perfecting our methods, and ensuring that we bring meaningful and effective services to those who seek our guidance. However, within the global spiritual community, there exists a growing concern that threatens the integrity of our work: THE RISE OF COPYCATS AND SCAMMERS!


This is an extremely controversial and sensitive topic, but one that both sellers and

customers alike must bring into the spotlight. There are a vast number of practitioners, us

included, who work tirelessly to build a solid reputation based on authenticity and trust.

Through painstakingly developed spiritual services, we serve those on their path of spiritual

development, those who reach out to us with hope, confidence, and trust, believing that we

can guide them on their journey of spiritual ascension. Many of our Brothers and Sisters in

this field share the same values, and we do not see them as competition. Instead, we

recognise each other as essential puzzle pieces, each completing a bigger picture in service

to those seeking their highest potential. Generally, we work alongside each other with mutual

respect, tolerance, and understanding.


That being said, we acknowledge that similarities in services are inevitable, especially when

practitioners walk similar spiritual paths. However, what has become a rampant and growing

issue is the presence of those who lack integrity, those who steal intellectual property, copy

our listings word for word, and sell them at lower prices purely to make a quick profit. These

individuals are not only harming honest practitioners but are also causing devastating effects

on the spiritual journeys of those who place their trust in them. Over the past few years, this

problem has grown like wildfire, nearly impossible to contain, and its effects are deeply

destructive.


The actions of copycats and scammers go beyond mere deception. They erode the faith of

genuine seekers, leaving people disillusioned and, in many cases, making them give up on

spirituality altogether because of the fraud they have encountered. This damages not only

the customers but also the hardworking practitioners who invest time, resources, and energy

into their craft. Our work can easily be bypassed by someone offering a cheaper alternative,

and the heartbreaking reality is that many victims of scammers become wary of all

practitioners trusting no one, including those of us who have spent years proving our

authenticity.


So how can seekers differentiate between a genuine practitioner and a fraud?


There are fundamental red flags to watch for when purchasing spiritual services. The first

and most obvious is price. As ethical practitioners, we strive to make our services accessible

to as many people as possible while maintaining the quality and integrity of our work.

However, the reality is that legitimate rituals, spellwork, spirit bindings, and rites require time,

energy, and materials. When something is being sold for just a few dollars, it should

immediately raise suspicion. Real practitioners use authentic materials in their rituals, such

as herbs, oils, candles, incense, and other sacred tools that come at a cost. There is no such

thing as a powerful, real, and effective binding or ritual that costs mere pocket change. If the

price seems too good to be true, it most likely is.


Another key indicator is time. It is nothing short of eye-rolling to see same-day casting

plastered across selling platforms. True practitioners dedicate time, thought, and immense

energy to every single ritual they perform. Realistically, even a simple ritual can take from a

few to several days to properly execute, with careful preparation, invocation, evocation

execution, closing and sealing. If someone claims they can perform a full ritual and provide a

detailed report within hours of your purchase, they are almost certainly a fraud. True

spellwork often takes anywhere from 3 to 5, to 7, to 10 working days, sometimes even longer

for complex or bespoke works. This is because some rituals require specific astrological

timings, moon phases, or extended energy work. Any practitioner worth their salt will

communicate the timeframe to their customer and ensure the work is done properly rather

than rushing it for a quick sale.


Another important factor to consider is the re-cast policy, as well as the terms and conditions

of the service. Authentic, dedicated practitioners take immense pride in their work and

always strive to ensure the best possible results for their customers. Spiritual energy and

personal development are unique to each individual, and results may vary based on many

factors. As a result, ethical practitioners often offer a grace period for adjustments, guidance,

and even re-castings within a set timeframe (usually within 90 days). This is not because our

work is ineffective, but because we understand that everyone’s spiritual path is different.

Scammers, on the other hand, will not offer this level of personalised support. They

disappear after the transaction is complete, never to be heard from again.


One of the biggest and most dangerous red flags is unsolicited contact. Real practitioners do

not, and will never, reach out to people offering their services. If someone messages you

claiming that the universe sent me to you or that have a curse that only I can remove,

do not fall for it. These people prey on fear, uncertainty, and desperation, and they do so with

malicious intent. Ethical practitioners respect free will and autonomy; we do not chase

customers. Those who are meant to work with us will find us in their own time. You come to

us, we don’t come to you.


The occult and magickal community thrive on respect, integrity, and genuine service. We

deeply value our fellow practitioners who work with honour, providing a high standard of

work to those who seek them. Likewise, we appreciate and respect the customers who place

their trust in us. However, none of us should tolerate copycats, scammers, and opportunists

who tarnish, damage, and dilute the reputation of dedicated spiritual workers. These


individuals not only harm the credibility of genuine practitioners but also destroy the faith of

those seeking enlightenment and guidance.


It is our collective responsibility to uphold the sacred nature of this work, to educate seekers

about the dangers of fraud, and to ensure that our spiritual communities remain places of

authenticity, trust, and empowerment. By being vigilant, informed, and discerning, we can

protect both ourselves and the legacy of true magickal practice. Many Blessings to you all!
