🔮 THE RED WITCH READING #15: When Love Becomes a Spell
From Doktor Snake:
This reading comes from Ricardo, 32, living in New York.
Ricardo believes he is in love with a woman named Lucinda.
In truth, he is orbiting her.
For years, she has drifted through relationships.
Three men have come and gone.
Ricardo has remained — hopeful, devoted, waiting.
She smiles at him sometimes.
Is kind.
Keeps him close — but never chooses him.
A year ago, desperate, Ricardo went to a Santería practitioner who promised results through animal sacrifice and petitions to spirits.
He paid a large sum.
Nothing changed.
Now he asks the Red Witch: Why won’t love come?
The Red Witch Speaks:
“You are not in love with Lucinda.
You are in love with the story you tell about her.”
She says obsession is a loop — not a romance.
Each small kindness from Lucinda acts like a spark,
keeping the emotional engine running without ever moving the vehicle.
“A fantasy can feel deeper than a real bond,” she says,
“because it never contradicts you.”
Ricardo doesn’t see Lucinda as she is.
He sees the version of her that fulfils his inner hunger —
for purpose, validation, belonging.
This is why no sacrifice, prayer, or spell can force the outcome.
“Love cannot grow where the self is absent,” the Red Witch says.
“And obsession erases the self.”
She also addresses the animal sacrifice directly:
“Life should not be taken to feed a delusion.
Conscious awareness, not blood, is the true offering.”
🜂 The Practice — “Breaking the Loop”
For thirty days:
• Do not contact Lucinda unless she initiates.
• Each time you think of her, bring attention back to your own body and surroundings.
• Ask quietly:
“What am I avoiding in my own life right now?”
This returns energy from fantasy to reality.
🜃 Reflection
Ricardo doesn’t need Lucinda.
He needs himself back.
When attention returns to real life — work, friendships, creativity, health —
the emotional spell weakens.
And when the spell breaks, love becomes possible again.
With someone who actually chooses him.
