constantine-spiritworker: “Have I been cursed?.. And what do I do next?” Special thanks to ofearthandtarot for the graphic, and natural-magics for the resource links at the end!SO. When you think you might have been cursed… what do you do? I can often tell intuitively based on how I have my wards and sentries set up, and I have a deity I work with who also helps with this sort of thing. However, not everyone has this level of protection, and sometimes I want more info. So I threw together this spread and had a couple of people test it for me. Please keep in mind although I’ve been reading tarot for many years I actually hate making my own spreads because I’d rather just do it intuitively, so if this spread doesn’t seem to work for you, please modify it so it will!This spread does have a ‘stop mechanism’ built into it. If you get to card 3 and feel that the cards are saying you have not been cursed, you can stop. At any time, you may lay out additional cards for positions 3 - 8, to give you extra information (like position 4 which lists symptoms of theoretical cursing).Overall situation - any unpleasant card suggesting outside influence would indicate you probably have recently been victim of an attack or curse. Whether this was deliberate, covert, or an accident, you’ll need to go through the whole spread to figure that out.What is at the root of this situation? If you HAVE been cursed this should give you information as to the reasoning of the original caster, or what situation caused them to want to attack you, etc. It may be obvious at this card that you have NOT, in fact, been cursed, but if it is not clear, continue to card three.What are some signs or red flags that I have actually been cursed? If this card describes things you have not experienced recently, or nothing seems to match up, you can stop here. This is the ‘stop’ mechanism of the spread.What is likely to happen if I don’t address this now? Potential further impact of the curse or attack going on.What behavior do I need to engage in to protect myself? This card may suggest walking away from a situation or person, or may give you specific advice as to what actions to take, like evaluating your boundaries or enlisting help.How can I best counteract this situation? This card should give you a specific action to dissolve the action. It may also point out a weakness of the original spell or spell caster you may take advantage of to also dissolve the working.What should I be on the look out for? Sometimes spells can have built-in factors which make them go on forever, or subsequent ‘triggers’ which unleash additional layers of spells. This card should give you more red flags to look out for in case you are dealing with such a situation.How will I know that I am safe/that I have dealt with the situation in a way that best serves me? This card will give you a concrete situation, feeling or event that will signify the spell has been dissolved.Additional resources for protection and calming (if the idea of curses make you super nervous): basic warding jarprotection techniquessimple calming room spellpeace and protection spell jar Curse Removal/ReversingLift a Curse BathLemon Curse BreakerAnti-Curse PowderCurse Removal and ReversalProtective Measures Against Curses and HexesReturn to Sender Candle and Mirror Spells“Drown the Witch” Reversal SpellProtection from CursesReflect Away Harm (Curse Reversal)Bind-Breaking Protection SpellTo Counter a CurseSealed with a C(urse) “Black As Night” Curse Removal Body Scrub Anti-Curse Powder☾ -- source link
