I fasted for 40 days to seek spiritual insight. This is what I learned.
This article presents a first-person account of a 40-day modified fasting practice undertaken from a pagan and occult perspective, addressing a perceived gap in discourse around fasting within modern witchcraft and neopagan traditions. The author documents their motivations, self-imposed safety parameters, and experiential observations regarding the mind-body connection and mental clarity, while explicitly distinguishing spiritual exploration from weight loss goals or health claims.
