H&D HYALINE & DORA 60mm(2.3inch) Moon Crystal Ball Paperweight 3D Laser Engraved Quartz Glass Ball with Stand Sphere Table Decor Crafts https://a.co/d/dR6f5Qf
My husband is NOT going to be happy but I had to. I’m figuring something like
“But honey, it’s bad enough that there isn’t a place outside I can be but I can’t even see the Moon from here. Most of the time I don’t really feel like my rituals are anything, hell sometimes I feel like I’m only pretending to be a Witch. I just thought this might help”
It’s all true but is that too guilt trippy? Maybe leave off the But honey?
I think what you have is fine. If you think it’s better to drop the “but honey,” it’s up to you – you know best here, and this is just my perspective as an outsider. If you feel it’s guilt-trippy but true, that’s your intuition telling you what to do. Trust yourself.
Also, it’s so cheap, that it’s not going to put a dent in anything. It could be made up by skipping a cheap meal, that’s how small it is. So maybe that can help in your reasoning?
I’ve been through similar a lot. I used to have this bad habit with my partner of going for the “it’s easier to ask for forgiveness than permission” thing. I’d learnt it from having to deal with my family and past relationships.
But that made my partner feel really left out of my life and our relationship. So what would upset them more is that I did it without talking to them about it first, fully knowing that some part of me was avoiding healthy disagreement. In my case, I think they were right – I was doing it just to get my way, and I realised that was selfish and changed.
Anyway, just sharing my story because I don’t think there’s a one-size-fits-all answer for anyone, or that anyone will know better than you with this. What worked for me, won’t necessarily work for you, and what will work for you won’t necessarily work for me. Because even though we may have had superficially similar experiences, they’re ultimately extremely different.
Whatever wording you end up going with, just remember to not leave the crystal ball unattended in the sun so your home doesn’t burn down.
@Nixi You could always try the line, “Really darling, you didn’t notice that, why it’s been there for ages?” . Just kidding. My hubby goes ballistic at my Christmas stuff, it’s now taking over his wardrobe . I just say, I love it, it makes me happy, it wasn’t alot . I’m sure he’ll understand. Maybe include him in your shop, my hubby loves, literally loves shopping
I really agree with this… that’s a really beautiful crystal ball, but it’s not worth souring a relationship over, or doing a disservice to yourself by being ingenuine. It’s the kind of thing that brings really bad energy…
Greetings all, just thought
I would throw my two cents in. I am sure that you did not purchase only for self. What ever reason you purchased it you also had him in mind. Your practice is for his benefit also. Is it possible that if it comes up as an issue. You help him to see it from that perspective. Remember your just a soul who’s intentions are good. Oh Goddess don’t let me be misunderstood. Have a great day all!
I sort of did that once. I had purchased a bunch of stuff and one of the more expensive and very breakable items, a glass pen and hand blown glass holder, I tucked on my dresser/Altar trying to protect it from little hands and paws. I guess it was hidden in plain sight because like 2 months later he said “Oh you got your pen” “Umm yeah, like a good while back” “No, it’s okay. I knew you were getting it, I just didn’t know you had”
Like okay, to my knowledge he didn’t know anything but that I wanted it but sure, I’ll roll with it
Recently I was like “Seriously, you don’t remember us talking about me getting the Fall Calendar Set for Little Cuteness in September? We talked about it, it was like a given”
Then I remember that I’m pretty sure that conversation might not happen taken place
I better figure something out, it’s arriving early and we’ll be here later today

If I didn’t have my light up moon I’d be getting that!
[/quote] that’s actually was I had planned on getting at dinner point soon but I kept stumbling across this one and it kept calling to me
Considering that no matter what I ask for, he’s told me “No” 2 maybe 3 times in 2 years. He might whine and tell me we really can’t afford it but that that will probably be about it
For myself sometime I feel the as you - maybe I am just pretending or not getting any results for my work. Results are on Spirits time not ours. But when Spirit grants my wishes - WTF - they are better then I could have imagined. Keep be a practitioner of your craft.
