Its unclear how your set up testing? photos provide a lot of info
You need to clamp the shaft or axle in place either in the bike frame, or held in a vice or similar stationary position if not installed in a bike..
If in place in a frame its not clamped tight enough you may need to add spacers if your frame gap is wider than your wheel hub?
the shaft has less mass than the wheel so without sufficient anchoring it will spin thats physics.

If it's a hub-motor, it's probably running backwards. Your description is bad. You need to tell us what sort of motor it is and what shaft you're taling about. Any other details, like what bike it is or what's on it will also help. There is a simple solution to your problem, but we can't help you if you don't tell us the whole story. How did your problem start?
