Curses are real, and each of us is capable of creating them. The "evil eye" is nothing more than sending out negative, hateful intent to someone and being so powerful in your desire for that person to experience pain that the energy of your desire overrides their natural psychic protection (and their desire to be well.)
As you can imagine, the world is full of people cursing each other, in one form or another. You needn't follow any particular belief system to generate a curse. Christians, Jews, Muslims, and pagans alike are all capable of generating curses. Even praying at the beginning of a ball game for YOUR team to win and for the other guys to go down is, in itself, a lower form of curse. If you aim the prayer more towards "Dear God, let's all have a great experience, a safe experience, out here on the playing field, and may the most gifted people win," then you're using the GOOD side of the FORCE instead of the Dark Side of the Force. So to speak.
People who are highly adept with shaping and forming subtle energies are the most talented at throwing out curses (although it's not a talent I would recommend that anybody work to acquire.) Many people with major metaphysical talent have never been "trained" - they just have it as a natural gift. So a child of ten with intensely concentrated focus is often a more dangerous person to be around when he's seriously pissed off than a 70-year-old lifelong Enochian magic practitioner who believes he's "all that," metaphysically speaking. A little kid with complete, absolute faith will knock the socks off of a dogma-entrenched half-believer, any day. The same unshaking belief that a faith healer brings to his work is the same power that can deliver a curse, if one dips into the negative energies instead of the loving ones.
Kids don't need ritual. They are more purely and immediately connected to their intent. That's why they are live wires, psychically, and they need to be taught how to be responsible for the energy that they generate.
But since adults, by and large, are clueless about the energy that THEY generate, and they've made an incredibly messy world because of it, they're usually not too helpful with guiding their kids and steering their psychic development. The average kid ends up receiving most of his psychic training from Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Harry Potter, and the Star Wars trilogies, which are missing many important Heloise tips for handling energy in a healthy and empowered manner.
Reversing a Curse
How do we protect ourselves from curses and the negative intentions of others? True psychic protection always comes down to self-love, self-esteem, and establishing a strong, unbending connection to a loving Higher Power, one which you can access when times get tough.
I've worked with other healers to reverse curses and heal the people, land, and situations which have been affected by the curse throughout time and probability.
It's a lot of $&*!in work. I swear, there needs to be a "Gandalf/white wizard fund" for healers to tap into so that they can work full-time to correct the energy problems that have been generated on this planet. I've spent twenty years on this stuff so far and have received tremendous thanks from the animal kingdom, the plant kingdom, and the mineral kingdom whenever I'm able to clear something out. But appreciation from the people involved? Let's just say I don't hold my breath waiting for applause. Most adults are still busy denying that spiritual energy exists in any coherent form. The kids get what I'm doing, though.
How to Perform a Curse
Curses can be bound with a prescribed set of conditions, a situational template through which they become active. Think of this as the curse having a "domain" or sphere of influence. A curse may not affect everything in a person's life. It may just be active in a certain arena.
For instance, one curse I helped to remove had been embedded into multiple generations of a family. This family was unusually troubled by miscarriages, deformed children, and fertility issues. Someone had cursed their family line's ability to bear healthy children many hundreds of years ago. So that had to be healed throughout time for all of the people who had been affected, and the original source of the curse had to be transmuted and resolved. Tricky stuff, and definitely not Metaphysics 101.
Everyday Curses Carry Power
I've known lots of people who have cursed others simply because they were mad or didn't get what they want. One woman confessed to me during a reading that she had done this many times. She had been a producer on Broadway and her star was starting to decline. She was being pushed out of getting new gigs and was no longer welcome with the "in" groups who were putting together all the big shows. So she cursed some of the people she felt were thwarting her. Several of them died. One had a horrible traffic accident. Others got AIDS even though they weren't engaging in any high risk behaviors and were using condoms with their partners. That sort of thing.
I knew another woman who cursed the wife of a man she wanted to marry. The woman committed suicide shortly thereafter, saying that she saw "demons" in the room with her that were trying to claim her soul. (The man did end up getting engaged to the woman who performed the curse, but he broke up with her before long. He could sense the negative energy around her, even though he didn't entirely understand its nature.)
Sigh. What I have seen, heard, and directly experienced about the dark side of the occult would singe the hair off your head. Or your toes. Or wherever your hair is gathered at the moment.
I want to share more about this important subject with all of the "energy dabblers" out there but do so in a way that doesn't scare the crap out of them. But maybe that's not possible. A good scary story will often act as healthy deterrent, especially if it's true.
Suffice it to say that the old adage about how negative energy you put out will return to you in threes, greatly multiplied in intensity, is very, very real. People who perform curses tend to forget about this fact in the heat of the moment and get swept away in their own momentary feelings of power.
The woman who cursed her competitors on Broadway became sick and unemployed and had other tragedies happen in her life.
The lady who cursed the man's wife experienced a bad car accident and disabilities, among other troubles. And, of course, the man broke up with her.
Karma. It will turn around and bite you in the ass, you know. Best not to leave your behind exposed, and to do good as much as you can, extending a positive net of energy as far as you can spread it. That's the best insurance against negative karmic payback.
And get a grip on your anger, because indulging in it can conjure up horrible things from the etheric realms.
The Power of Common Curse Words
For instance, common curse words and phrases are very dangerous on an energy level.
Many people like to use the phrase "Jesus f$%&ing Christ" when they are upset.
Energy sensitives like me can see the chaotic beings who are instantly summoned, out of thin air, to keep the angry person bound in negative energy.
Calling for Jesus, on the other hand, in a loving and respectful way, creates the exact opposite effect, as you might imagine. Jesus is a much nicer guy to hang out with than any of those bottom dwellers in the lower astral realms.
So, before you smite your enemies with negative energy, I'd advise you to take a chill pill. It's the best way to prevent troubles for yourself up ahead.
And that way, shamans, healers, and energy sensitives won't have to clean up your mess afterwards - ten or a hundred years from now.
I mean, I'm a Virgo, so I like tidying up, but when it's the whole frickin' world that people have spoiled with their anger and their demonic intergenerational conjuring, even the most industrious Virgo tends to get exhausted.
We could use a break.
Psychic energy is real. It's how we shape it, utilize it, and toss it out into our environment which determines the quality of life that we all experience.
Personally, I'm all for less cursin' and more lovin'. :)
