Removing a curse is complex on the one hand and very easy to do on the other.
Basically, a curse creates a hole or a crack in a person's energy field (the auric field around the body.) It's this hole that allows all manner of disease, chaos, and unpleasant events/situations to start flooding into a person's life.
A curse can be on a place (so that a location becomes a dark vortex for bad things and entities and negative situations.)
It can also be on a group of people (a romantic couple; a family; an entire lineage of people, multi-generationally; a race; a nation; and more.)
It can also be on an individual.
If you're trying to heal yourself, invoke God/a Higher Power/your angels and spiritual guides and ask them to seal up any holes in your auric field. The archangel Michael, the spiritual warrior, is excellent at this, as is the archangel Raphael, who is the primo healing angel. I also do all of my healing work with the help of Jesus, who is the BEST as far as loving, transformative energy goes. At the same time, I'm not a Christian in the traditional, church-going, Bible thumping manner of the word, and I am uneasy being classified as Christian. I think of myself more as a gnostic Christian, one who enjoys and appreciates the divine love and guidance of Jesus and seeks to enter into understanding Him better through direct revelation, not through dogma. And He is not my only teacher or spiritual guide. He's part of my spiritual "posse!" Well, head of the posse, really.
Anyway.......after you have invoked and are in a clear space, feeling spiritually connected, ask your Higher Assistance to remove any accumulated negative entities, thoughtforms, illnesses, emotions, and general chaos that have become stuck within your own energy body - both physically and spiritually - and ask them to take that stuff off to the Light.
Also invoke to have all spells removed - because that's what a curse really is. A spell isn't always a rhymed couplet performed by the light of the full moon with a cauldron on hand. A spell is really just a highly-charged, highly-specific set of conditions and rules that has been imbued with spiritual energy. The spell part of the curse is the template that drives the curse through time -- the mechanism, if you will, that keeps that darned Energizer Bunny of doom marching. So you want to disable that.
As you are invoking for this, you can imagine a divine electric violet shade (deep, rich purple with gold sparkling energy buzzing within it) clearing you out. This energy works wonders. Negative entities cannot tolerate that particular color vibration. They are completely allergic to it!
And it's also important to set a clear, unbending intent that you cancel all effects of a curse throughout time and probability for yourself (or for others who are involved.) Plus, transmuting that energy into divine blessing (instead of a curse) is also important, because it removes the negative charge.
The more love you can have in your heart when you invoke, the better, because it truly connects you with the healing powers of forgiveness and the world of divine helpers.
When we are removing a curse, we have to forgive OURSELVES, too....because sometimes we have engaged in horrible behaviors and dysfunction because of the negative energy we've been caught up in. This behavior may have driven us throughout this life or through a succession of lifetimes. So self-forgiveness is another piece of the puzzle. This aspect of the healing can become an ongoing project as you continue in your spiritual practice and learn more about the ever-expansive properties of love.
It can be good to use holy "props," things which connect you with higher energy. Examples include: lighting a white or gold or violet candle; using cedar and sage or frankincense to clear yourself out and to consecrate your space as a healing zone; playing inspiring music; that sort of thing.
Choice of setting can be important, too. Sometimes it's powerful to do this work outside in the sunshine or at a beautiful spot out in nature where you can connect with true feelings of peace. Being in an environment that is peaceful can help you to center THAT feeling permanently into your life instead of continuing the dance of chaotic vibration.
So be creative and spontaneous and get yourself into a mode where you realize you ARE powerful and you CAN take control of the energy flow in your life....and it is always within you to banish the presence of the dark. Ultimately, it will never have any hold over you, because you are a creature of the light. You are a spiritually sovereign, immensely powerful being of love, and what you say goes!
One additional note - if you want to remove a curse that YOU have set in motion, one which has negatively affected others, everything I've mentioned above still applies. Just focus the healing on the "victims" (those who were harmed) and also remember to work on your own healing, too. Self-forgiveness is an especially important aspect of the process if you want to put a real end to the whole "feedback loop" of energy that was first generated by the curse.
I hope these ideas have been helpful to you. Obviously, this is just a brief overview of a much larger subject, but all of these ideas do work very well when used in a faith-filled, loving way.
Also, you might want to buy a book I've found to be very helpful. It's called Remarkable Healings, and it was written some years ago by an Indian psychiatrist named Dr. Shakuntala Modi. She discovered when using hypnosis to help her patients that we tend to have all manner of entity attachments that we've picked up along the way, and they can severely interfere with our health on a physical, emotional, and mental level. By invoking the help of God/Goddess/angels/Jesus etc. (whomever you embrace as a loving Higher Power) and asking them to clear you out, you can experience amazing healing.
I apply some of her ideas when I do my own healing work for myself and others, and it's truly miraculous the effects I've seen. I was going to write about some of these events here, but I think people will misinterpret them and think that I'm "bragging," which isn't right. I've never been able to accomplish ANYTHING on my own, metaphysically speaking, without first aligning myself with the divine power of love, of God/Goddess/Great Spirit, and the world of spiritual helpers. So when I say "I've" done something, I'm really saying, "We." I just attempt to be an instrument of peace, which is all that any healer needs to do, ultimately! It's our job to get ourselves out of the way and let something bigger and more loving than ourselves move through us. That's the power that moves mountains and heals illness, this primal force of creation.
I'm not talking about "channeling," either, at least not in the way many people conceive of it. For me, it's more a matter of opening my heart, focusing my mind and intentions in a loving way, and invoking the vibration of the divine. I think of it as plugging into the Cosmic Internet, that sum total of wisdom and peace that is so much greater than any of us.
