I’ll leave out specific details of my practice but I have made spirit contact and have good relationships with ancestors and house spirits, created protective servitors, so my defenses are quite strong when I am practicing frequently. I decided that since I had reached an intermediate skill level I would try to reach out and contact a darker entity- not naming it- and ask for material career advancement and money to fund a pilgrimage to my ancestral homeland. I believed since it was a somewhat noble cause I was doing something morally grey rather than evil.
My offering was sex magic channeled into a sigil and burned in the presence of the entity.
The contact was subtle, and I wasn’t sure if what I had done had really “done anything” so to speak.

About a month or two later, I was promoted twice in the span of a month, a position that I barely had time to train for and didn’t think would become available.
The reason I was able to advance so quickly? The person who previously had that position caught an illness, which caused a disability they already had to flare up so severely that they were unable to work.

I did not wish them harm.

Part of me wants to just say it’s all a coincidence but the synchronicities just line up too well.

I did my protections. I was very specific about what I wanted. I didnt consider that "vacancy" might actually hurt someone else. I assumed any backfire or consequences would hit me.

Question for people who walk this path: Is this how it works? Does something always collapse for someone else to clear space for you? Did I do something incorrect or do you just have to be a psychopath to choose this path? or does the path make you one?

Genuinely asking. No judgement.
