Do you feel cursed or haunted? Whether you delve into magic or not, you could have picked up something that suddenly seems to be changing your luck for the worse. This may accompany feelings of oppression, sadness or irritability. Naturally the emotional and mental state could be medical in nature, so in this article I am going to assume you went to see your Dr. to rule out any medical reasons for your feelings.
Ok, back to magic… if you have been using magic, dealing with spirits, or going to places such as haunted locations or cemeteries, you may have opened a portal and let an unknown spirit in, or you could have a tag-along from a haunted spot.
If you’re ruling out the possibility of spirits, but feeling cursed while at the same time wondering who in the world would be responsible because you don’t have any enemies, ponder this. We all do magic all the time whether consciously or unconsciously. We are continuously creating the world around us. And for some crazy reason unknown to me, negative magic seems to be the easiest. I’m assuming it’s due to all the emotion that is fueling the anger at the time. You could’ve been the victim of the Evil Eye, or as it’s called here in the South, the Stink Eye.
You may have been at the wrong place at the wrong time, or accidentally cut someone off on the road, (because I know none of my readers would do that on purpose). Maybe a cashier was having a bad day, and you asked her a silly question such as “where’s the dog food?”. You know the look I’m referring to. It’s a hateful glare that makes you back up and wonder “what’s their problem?”. Not every Evil Eye goes home to roost with you, but some do. I guess some people just have a better knack for spreading the hate.
I know the above are all different situations, but you can actually get rid of the problem no matter what the cause. Unless you were trying to raise a bad-ass demon and got one, or actually do have enemies who are plotting your demise by magic. These 2 cases would require stronger work, and possibly the help of a professional.
To change things back around for the better, start with yourself. Mix yourself up a cleansing bath, or buy one ready made. Hyssop, some sea salt, and rosemary are a good combination. Brew this into an infusion, allow it to cool, mix it with about a gallon of water, then shower as you normally do, but after your last rinse carefully pour the cleansing bath over you starting with the top on down. Now air dry because you want to keep a light film of the cleansing herbal mix on you, since it helps to protect you as well as cleanse negative energy off of you. If you have other people living with you, see if you can get them to take cleansing baths too. If they look at you as if you sprouted horns, and won’t take a cleansing bath, you can put some in a spray bottle and mist them with it. It’s not quite as good as a bath, but better than nothing. Once again, go from the top down. Take your bath for 3 days in a row, and see how you feel. Clean your tub with ammonia (and NEVER mix ammonia with other cleaning products) so there is no negative residue that you could end up picking back up. If you are inclined, you can save a cup of the bathwater that came off of you, and carry it to the nearest crossroads and throw it out there.
Next step is the inside of your home. Some people wash the entire inside of the house, including the walls. I can’t even get to most of my walls since they are covered in bookcases, so I prefer the fumigation or misting methods. My incense of choice which will raise the vibration of a place, dispelling negativity as well as run off an errant spirit is a combination of Sandalwood, Dragon’s Blood and Frankincense. I’ve used it in loose form as well as sticks, and it has worked nicely.
If you are making a spritz to spray the interior of your home, Hyssop, Lavender, and some Florida Water makes a nice combination which smells pleasant too. Once again, you would make an infusion of the Hyssop and Lavender, allow to cool, add some Florida Water, the fill the rest of the bottle with water. I prefer to use distilled water for this both for the infusion and the bottle filler. For clarification for anyone new to this, Florida Water is a cologne, and not simply water from Florida.
Open your front door, and you can either start fumigating/spritzing from the back of the house to the front, or begin at the front door, and fumigate/spritz in every room but moving in a counter clockwise direction through the house until you reach the opened front door again. Don’t forget to gently waft some of the smoke in closets, and attics, ect. too. If it’s a wayward spirit, it will hide in those places. Just be careful not to spritz anything electrical, and be careful with the incense, especially where there are lots of flammable items, such as closets. The goal is to cleanse the energy in each room, not burn the house down. When you have run everything out the front door, close the door. You’re not done yet. Now to keep things out, now that you got them out of the house, anoint all your doors and windows beginning with the front door and this time going clockwise through the house. You can use Holy Water, or Florida Water for this step.
I’m sure lots of folks use different protective infusions or oils. You can anoint the doors and windows themselves, or the door and window frames. I like to do the latter, and while you are anointing it, make it into the sign of the cross, and visualize that you are making a protective boundary. If you suspect evil has been purposefully directed at you, or that your roomate is so annoying, that your house is bound to be the target of a hex sooner or later, you can get those convex mirrors that they sell at auto parts stores. They are only a few inches across, and they are normally used on side view mirrors to give a wider fish-eye view of traffic. Anoint it, energize it to protect your home, and hang one on each wall that faces outside. North, South, East and West. If you live in an apt, hang them inside your windows, but facing outwards. The reason for this is so the apartment maintenance man won’t remove them for you. Different apartments have different rules about outside “decor”. You will probably only need 3 in an apt, since your 4th wall is probably not exposed to the outside.
One more thing that you will want to consider is whether you received or purchased an object when things started going downhill. You may have a haunted or cursed object. If it’s vintage or simply used, the previous owner may have been a negative Nellie, and the object may be holding her residual energy. If you suspect that’s the case, put the object in salt or earth (dirt) for 2 – 4 weeks. Preferably during a waning moon. Keep in mind that salt is corrosive, so Earth may be the better choice for anything made of metal. When done, the object will have a neutral energy. If you do magic, why not charge it up for somehing positive? Nature abhors a vacuum, so stick something good in there!
