White Dogs

[Thunderhead]

So, on top of my other larger projects, I've been casting sigils around like crazy. Really over doing it.
I'm on a high energy cycle at the moment or something, higher than I've been in years and this kind of feels like it's channeling some of that energy in fairly positive ways.
Over all, the results have been going well; quite a few of the things I've set in motion are taking shape and quite a few more are going to take more time. The Big Dream works at it's own pace though so I know to feel patient; I'm in no hurry (other than to get the number from a certain blonde...but I digress)

I'm aware that going wild with any casting can have some potentially serious side effects; hallucinations, wrong-thinking, obsession developing, and at the highest end of the spectrum: lights in the sky, ghost sightings and general supernatural mischief. Once my big project is done with, I think I'll drop everything for a month or two until the ripples settle back down.

In the meantime though, stuff seems to be building up. Last night I woke up at around 3:30 to the sounds of some sort of animal outside in the bushes. I got up, worried that maybe a stray dog had cornered one of my cats and looked out onto the street seeing nothing. I went onto the porch and lit a cigarette and waited; soon I saw a white shape kind of flit between the shadows. A minute later, it happened again. Then a third time. Suddenly and seemingly out of nowhere, two MASSIVE white dogs sauntered onto the street. Big, like wolfhound big; larger than you kind of think that dogs can get. My vantage point was pretty secure so I just said "go home!". They both looked up at me and advanced a few steps. "Go home!"
With that they both turned and left, disappearing behind a group of tall trees on the street, but I never saw them cross over the other side where the street was illuminated.

Anyway, I self-assessed to make sure I wasn't dreaming; even in this neighbourhood where the occasional dog gets loose and wanders around at night, the whole event seemed surreal. But no, I was awake and as alert as I am typing this now.
I'm more than happy to go with the theory that these two completely unknown massive white dogs hopped their owners fence and were just out and about doing dog things that night...but it was such a strange thing.
The only other thing about yesterday that stood out was I did a good thorough smudging around the house to clear out the proverbial cobwebs from the last few years. I don't know if it's related or not.

Anyone else over-do spell casting? Catch yourself thinking irrationally, or start seeing weird things that pop up on the edge of the explainable-but-not-quite?
