Good Morning, Occulties,

Still, at this writing, offering the free reading when you buy a seven day spellcasting. This is also available for "pre-buy" spellwork (meaning, if you want the reading, but are sure you want me to cast a spell later, you may purchase it now, and get the reading free now,) so please hurry on over. The offer is good as long as supplies last. :) 

So, what might be interesting to some of you is that during the pandemic, I had a huge spike in cases of people needing uncrossing. It would seem the pandemic brought out the worst in many of us, and now many of my clients and readers have found that an enemy did come after them using spellwork, which is generally quite rare! So…let's start with the good news….

The good news is that most people aren't all that great with cursing, and whatever happened is probably the bulk of what will happen. While that might seem like cold comfort now, the reality is that if someone cursed you last year, the curse has probably run out of steam and is not still a problem. You may be still dealing with the AFTERAFFECTS (remember, unlike the story of Cinderella, the coach doesn't return to a pumpkin after midnight, and the effects of a spell that has run it's course generally remain,) of what the spell caused, BUT you are not likely actively cursed.

Now for the bad news…despite the fact most people are not particularly great with cursing, more than a few got stupid bored during the pandemic, and in that time some of them may have repetitively cursed you, so you might be…well, dealing with some active cursing energies.

In the interest of cleansing away, removing, and protecting from many attacks, let's get into how to start fixing up the damage that being crossed may be causing, regardless of your current cursed/not cursed status. Even if you were not literally cursed, as in someone did a nasty spell on you, you might benefit from some of these steps. 

First, look around your home, workplace, and vehicle. Look for any strange paper packets, or anything weird. If you find something (these can look like wrapped packets, folded slips of paper, stitched up bags, small jars with strange items inside, little dollies of wax or clay or even fabric,) do not use your bare hands to pick this up. Put on disposable gloves or use a paper towel to collect the item. There are a myriad forms of these and just as many ways to destroy them. Generally speaking, the first thing I do is I remove the item off of my property. With a jar, I break it, spill the contents, and if I see a specific item belonging to myself and/or my loved one, I grab this, again always wearing gloves. Make note of any names (if visible) on any name papers. With a packet of paper, I will shake it to remove any contents pertaining to me or the other target, pluck out any images, that are being used as a witness sample, examine the name paper, and  I will burn this (again off my property,) making sure to not inhale vapors. Whatever you find, you are free to contact me, and we will discuss disposal. HOWEVER, more often than not, there is no item discovered. People prefer remote work these days, and who can blame them, now that we have CCTV, and other security measures. So, while this step may seem circumstantial to many of you, basically, cleaning up your area and looking for anything suspicious is always a bit of good advice. 

If you've identified nothing, or if you did and disposed of it, the next step is a super simple one… A salt bath. People say "Cat, how is it that a freaking lame ass salt bath will do anything?  That's not really mystical!" Well, no, but it's a good litmus test for anything bigger and badder that needs removal, and if you're just dealing with residual curse energies, it's going to clean a lot of that off. So, just draw a bath (or use a large tub you can stand in,) pour in some salt (even that can of Morton salt will suffice, – just some good ol' Sodium Chloride, aka salt, is all you need,) and either submerge yourself and then stand up (full tub) or stand in the large container with a cup and pour this salt water over you three times. Now wash DOWN (head to feet). I usually say Psalm 23, but I am Catholic so you can just say "cleanse me, make me free of stain," and that can work too. I want you to pay attention to how you feel during and after. Are you feeling a lot lighter…. the best way I can describe this is that you literally feel lighter, or as if someone has lifted a heavy load off of you. Negative energy often collects around the shoulders, the back of the neck, and the back of the head. So, if you notice a "lightness" in this area, you may way to repeat the salt bath using something a bit stronger, – perhaps Karma Zain's Jinx Killer bath salt (find this at https://seraphinstation.com) or Dara's Spiritual Cleansing bath salts (find this at http://hoodooroots.com) to fully cleanse off all those spiritual nasties. This is actually something that if you do it regularly, it is very helpful, regardless of if you're being actively targeted with curses. 

Now, I'm just going to assume something, and perhaps I'm being presumptive here, but I'm assuming most of you are not actively protecting yourself against being cursed or against attack. One of the most effective ways to protect yourself is also quite easy. You know those relatively cheap big bags of tea lights?  Like this (not my picture):

81d+Jr+SPEL._AC_SL1500_

Get a bag of tealights and burn one of these to your guardian spirit once a week. This is going to help protect you. So all you need to do is place one of these on your altar, and as you light it say, "Neverborn guardian, friend and protector, I offer you this gift in appreciation and love for all you do for me. Please accept this humble offering and my acknowledgement of you and my gratitude that you guard over me all the days of my life." Let the candle burn out. That's it. Just do that once a week. 

Maybe you're saying "Cat, I don't believe in that shit, so I won't do it." And that's fair, you need not believe in things I believe in, but I would guess you might still want to do something to protect yourself. This is something I use when someone is ACTIVELY working on me. Now, remember, if the curse was cast last year, and they've done nothing further, this won't do much. However, if someone is actively working on you, this is going to help…and the side benefit is, if you're not sure who's working on you, it's going to out the person who is working on you. So first you need to buy a double mirrored compact WITHOUT LOOKING INTO THE MIRROR EVER. These are easily available at most places that sell cosmetics, so here in the states, a place like a Rite Aid, CVS, or Target would have this item. Now using the CLOSED compact as a guide, trace out a piece of paper that will fit into the compact. I usually put the pen around the item, then trim about a quarter inch (so maybe around a centimeter for those of you who are not into Imperial Measurement,) off of that. If you have identified your target, get a witness sample (image, hair, fingernail clipping, etc.) to place inside the compact as well. REMEMBER, this is going to be a risk if this person KNOWS MAGIC WELL. If someone identifies you doing this to them, they will take it as a death threat if they know their stuff, and so I strongly caution you to be careful using this if you know your target is very capable in the magical arts. OK, now that I've warned you, no one can come crying to me if they don't heed the warning, haha. So, on this slip of paper write out the following for a NON-SPECIFIC target: "All those who would come against me with their work, I now reflect your dark works back upon you, that any move you make to strike at me merely bounce off me uselessly and hit you, as is my will so be it!" Inscribe the following for a SPECIFIC target" "(Full name of target,) you who would try to harm me by your dark work, your spells against me are useless against me and reflect back onto you, as is my will so be it!" All you need to do is to place this inscribed paper inside with your witness item (if applicable,) then wrap this compact in electrical tape while saying what you had inscribed a total of nine times, and place this item in a window. That's it. 

If you're still experiencing symptoms even after doing some of these easy workings, feel free to contact me!
