Don't forget to cast your protective circle first. Astral nasties love newbies (an affectionate term, mind you.) because they haven't developed their ways to ward them off... and they can gather all kinds of energies without being fully able to direct it. (don't worry... the circle and good grounding will fix that for now) Be sure to cast your circle before you start... and afterward, take any excess energy and push it into the ground. then eat a little something... particularly if it's a bit salty... like chips/crisps. (yeah... not the most healthy... but the salt is the key and unless you want to just eat a bit of salt... they're the way to go) That will help ground the energies swirling in and around you.
By the way.. no.. none of what you've said sounds weird or strange... I have a ring I feel the same way about...also with a pentacle.
You'll do great in your spellwork!
With love, light and blessings,
Shosha
