crazy-idea-i-know
It's not a crazy idea at all, and I see many people before me have already said it. In my country, where magic and spells are found and practiced very often (they are even intertwined with pagan-religious rituals), rituals related to "throwing away" or "getting rid" of something always contain a pool of water, but in most cases it is running water (the current of a river), not a stagnant lake. (Well, I learned something new from you today and I'm so grateful! You can't imagine!)
While reading your post, I first thought of these cute Sorgenfresser or Worry eaters that I saw in a bookstore in Belgium years ago, and apparently they are practiced with children and I find the idea so wonderful. But then I also thought of all these magical practices of throwing into a flowing river an "enchanted" object, an object that collected all your "problems". And it's not just about worries. Why not for diseases too? Let's see! I hope you will share the result of this ritual in a next post. And I hope it will help!
Coming to your comment with a little delay, my apologies @soulsdetour 🙏
Our traditions are a mixture of many rituals, pagan, religious, or social beliefs practised through centuries, though it also depends on the area and country. In some countries, it is more marked and in others less. Worry eaters? I had to check what it was, I didn't know about their existence. This stone thing is an idea my teacher gave me, to help throw away some fears (playing for the audience, fear of mistakes, before exams etc...) and thoughts we can change actually with our own attitude. But guess what!? I didn't have any migraine episodes since that day, and it is a huge success already for me. Not saying that it will not come back, as it always does, but let's remain in this belief that at the moment this stone works 😇
It should sleep there at the bottom of the lake as long as possible :))
Thank you for your wonderful and encouraging comment, and once again, my apologies for the three-day delayed response 😌
P.S. I forgot to mention - I noticed you read my tag and started your comment with it. Thank you! 😉
No worries, I too saw your post late due to oversight 😌
I'm so happy for you, as I personally believe in these "rituals" and believe that each one of us has the power to change and create things. Of course, everything requires attention and time, which we would hardly spare, either because of laziness, because of being too busy or something else. But the most important thing is when a person puts themselves together and tries to do something on their own. Something good for themselves. And you did it. And this cannot stay without consequences. There will be some. Some good ones! 😊
One of the laws of the universe - every action has a reaction :))
I hope the good one will last for some time 😇
Thank you for your understanding, hope you are doing well 🤗
