The First Place I Felt Spiritual Betrayal Was…
When they taught me to fear the very power that lives in me.
- Introduction
Spiritual betrayal doesn’t always come from demons. Sometimes it comes from the people who claimed to love you. From the pulpits. From the prayers laced in control. From the silence when you asked too many questions.
If you’ve ever felt that your truth made you dangerous… That your power made them uncomfortable… That your gifts were “too much” for their beliefs… Then you have survived spiritual betrayal.
And this scroll is for you.
- What Spiritual Betrayal Feels Like
- Being told your visions are evil
- Being punished for questioning spiritual leaders or teachings
- Feeling shame around your natural gifts or intuition
- Being silenced when you tried to speak truth
- Being manipulated with religion to keep you small
- Believing you had to “be good” to be spiritually accepted
- Having your body, voice, or womb excluded from sacred spaces
Spiritual betrayal often happens early. And it plants the belief:
“I must abandon myself to be loved by God.”
- The Healing Truth
God has never asked you to leave yourself.
Man did. Doctrine did. Trauma did.
But the Divine? She always wanted you whole.
- The Ritual of Sovereign Return
You Will Need:
- A candle
- A mirror
- A journal
- A sacred object you were once told was “not of God” (a crystal, feather, oil, card, etc.)
Steps:
- Light the candle and sit in front of the mirror.
- Place the sacred object before you.
- Look into your own eyes and say:
“You never betrayed Spirit.
They betrayed your truth.
I reclaim the version of me who never needed permission to be sacred.” - Write this sentence in your journal and complete it:
“The first place I felt spiritual betrayal was…”
Let your body feel the memory. Let your spirit rise above it.
