Hi Occulties,
So today I'd like to discuss a problem I see on chat groups, and sites that offer a place for people to make an audience where someone can make broad predictions about the global future (sort of like here in Portland we used to have Monument Square Jesus, who would stand in Monument Square preaching gloom and doom and Jesus,) and get an audience who isn't sure that this person should be followed. So, while I realize many of you are hateful towards the Bible or Judeo Christian things, or are just completely ignorant thereof, without trying to tell you this is a historically accurate book, I can say the story of Moses, where Moses is picked by God to be his voice on Earth, Moses says "why me? I have a stutter and I'm not exactly someone people listen to," and God is like "Because I said so." Well, yes but Moses was also the ADOPTED BROTHER OF PHAROAH, so not exactly a nobody...
That person saying the angels sent them a message from God to tell you that (insert predictions here,) is most likely, however, a nobody. In fact, I'm a nobody compared to who Moses was alleged to be. I am in NO PLACE to assume that I am here to direct you because heavenly (or earthly) beings commanded me to tell you some prediction. I do not have a Messiah complex. I do not want to be the Messiah. Blind followers scare me. People who want you to believe that they are some leader with great predictions of global events? They want followers and acolytes.
Because WHY WOULD ANY SPIRIT CHOOSE THEM TO BE THEIR SOOTHSAYER? I have spoken with some Pretty Big Deal Spirits in my day (because I'm an occultist and so I'm of course a fangirl if this spirit is a Pretty Big Deal and will lower itself to speaking with me on my petty little human problems,) and yet I am not here telling you I'm their Prophet sent to tell you what they want you to know. In fact, let's say the Archangel Michael himself told me something and I didn't immediately go insane from being in the presence of an angel manifested into flesh (there would be a reason they start with "be not afraid," in the Bible, - because they are supposedly quite terrifying to behold,) - you can assume because I'm more or less nobody, that this is going to be something which isn't "Tell the world that (insert Doom & Gloom,) and go forth and let everyone know," merely because even if I did, who the fuck am I? I am not Pharoah's daughter, I am not a princess, I am not even probably read by 1% of the world's population. So if someone on social media is saying their spirit guides sent them to tell you grandiose world predictions, I'd honestly take that as they just want attention or that they might have some mental illness issues.
And if we go back to the story of Moses, this brings about a very good point... Moses DID NOT WANT TO BE A PROPHET. No one should WANT that job. It's shitty job. He'd much rather have run off from Pharoah, not saved the Hebrews, and stayed being a shepherd because that was a nice, warm, simple life. Just like, I like writing you a blog, and I love helping you learn the occult, and love all of that, but I don't want to give up my life enjoying the beauty of Portland, or having to be followed by a HUGE PERCENTAGE of the world's population as a teacher and guide. I like it on the smaller level, sure, but I would not want to be a prophet. People who WANT that job are people who will not ever be PICKED for the job.
And at this point, with as many humans on Earth as there are, let us reasonably assume that you would be a somebody if you were picked for that job. Maybe not, but I'm pretty sure you posting predictions on Facebook or on Reddit or on Twitter is not likely to be some no name person with 200 followers sent here to be God's Prophet on Earth, m'kay.
