If You Don’t Align, No "Curse" Can Bind.

If you don’t Align, no "Curse" can bind.
Curses, alignment, and the rule of 3 x 3.  ​

​Many focus on this idea of curses, and it doesn’t resonate with me.  And by “Curse” I mean very specifically focused energy toward someone or something concerning revenge,  harm, or lack of flourishing for another.
 

​Not that people don’t set them or try to send them or have whole moments creating ritual around them. I know there are many different paths, and people from many belief systems connect with this as a way to understand energy or  tradition.  Curses CAN have power if you are aligned with the energy vibration, and/or if you are just on the edge of that vibration and anything around you tips you in that direction.  If you are not mindful you can kinda get fucked up in that energy vibration unless you have a super energy awareness.

Part of why I don’t resonate with the whole idea of Curses is years of healing and card reading work where people were certain that they had been cursed, but were not willing to look at their own shit and make meaningful change energetically.

There are a A LOT of different ways that people talk about how energy resonates and matches with like energy. I usually connect with the puzzle piece metaphor or the frequency paradigm. Energy works like puzzle pieces matching.  An open space welcomes a piece that fits... OR You can only catch a radio station that is broadcasting to a station you are tuned to to… OR if we thought of it like climbing above sea level. If we were climbing a mountain and you could only see or connect with those at the same height above sea level it would be similar.  Someone can be sending “curse” energy or just fucked up thoughts or wishes of the worst, but if you are not vibrating there it will miss you. They can try and try and you just won’t be a match for it. If you are on the edge or if you are a total match, then yes, absolutely. Curse all day, but if not then not so much.

Sooooo when people come to me to remove a curse I have a very tried and true way to handle it… most people hate it. So much so that I preface it with an explanation… which I have to acknowledge is me also lining myself up with those who hate it… see how that works? ...The reason I may have had to explain it over and over or thought people hate it is because at some point I was like, “people hate this explanation and resist it”, and I kept focusing on that thought, and then I got tons of clients that hate it and resist it.

That being said, that tenent of energy that what you put out comes back to you is particularly applicable here. It is one of those “rules” aka Universal Laws that shows up everywhere… in almost all spiritual dogma, and in science. What you put out will come back to you. In Wicca or Pagan practices is often called the rule of 3 X 3… what you put out comes back times 3, for good or for ill. In many faiths it’s the “Golden Rule” or Karma … some eclectics say it comes back times 10 or 1000.

With an awareness of this same rule we can self-protect.  I cannot give credit for this remedy to just one person. It’s a combined set of tools.  I heard it from several people over the years, so I also cannot claim it as my own. I can say I have used it and recommend it for over a decade, and those who used it got results.

Curse Remedy:
If there is a specific person or persons you feel are focusing the curse on you, focus on them for the purpose of this exercise.  If you don’t know who you feel is responsible make the focus more general.

1. Get into a still quiet place like you would for a meditation.
2. Picture the person or persons you think are responsible.
3. Get very present to them in your mind.
4. Now imagine them surrounded by a beautiful pink light.  This light feels like love and ease.
5. Imagine them being the happiest they have ever been. Fulfilled. Satisfied. Full of joy
6. Take several deeps breaths, and repeat this every time fear or anger about them comes up for you.
7. If you so choose, in addition there are several people that speak on methods for breaking Karmic contracts. I have used some, and found them helpful as well... especially in concert with doing this “curse” removing work. If any of what you are feeling is connected to past lives you can use those methods to let that go. Heads up, it involves forgiveness and owning your part in stuff too… even shit you ain’t know you did.

Step 5  is about the point where many many people balk at me. They would usually begin a diatribe of how they either can’t do that, or what would make the person most happy would be to see them with a horrible life and how could they imagine the person having everything that makes them happy if it meant their own life would be horrible etc etc etc.

At base, if you are aligned with love and joy, fear and hate can not live in that same space. If you are only sending and picturing joy for that person or persons either their insistence on holding on to  their anger and hatred will repel them from you OR their energy will shift to a different vibration that is more aligned with love… and your energy…

That being said, that last bit would sometimes hang people up too so I think next week I’ll dig into forgiveness.
