Spirit Keeping is not dangerous, with the only exception being Black Arts. In any case, it is imperative to work with a trusted, reputable, skilled practitioner to ensure the integrity of what is promised. Under this condition, and when exercising respect and caution, there is nothing to fear- unlike the Hollywood versions of interactions with spirits which distort, dramatize, and sensationalize.
White Arts, Dark Arts, and Black Arts are three distinct classifications for spirits:
- White Arts consist exclusively of entities of positive energy, and do no harm.
- Dark Arts consist of entities who decide for themselves to be bad or good- in widely varying degrees.
- Black Arts consist exclusively of entities of negative energy. They are inherently evil and incapable of doing good.
Your decision to become a Spirit Keeper should be guided by your own personal needs, such as a desire to enhance your magick abilities and an opportunity for a unique, mutually-beneficial companionship.
The Creepy Hollows forum offers a positive outlet for support by other Spirit Keepers who are eager to provide guidance and answer questions.
In summary, Spirit Keeping is not at all dangerous with White and Dark Arts entities and spirits.
