If i was cursed, how i can check this?

[xul_13]

So, it's my question: how can I check if I was cursed? What practices do you recommend? Also, if you have examples related to this topic, like you were cursed, what it was like, how you managed to find that out, and what you did next?

Curses of course do happen, but intentionally directed curses are not super common. Why do you think you may be cursed?

 

[Hastrologer]

Hi Xul! Imprecatoria is not my speciality, but, If you feel you're under the effect of a curse, you could use the same method people use when they believe they have the "evil eye" on them. Paying attention to the way living things degenerate in your presence (Fruits, plants, etc.) Could also give you a hint. Cheers!

This is definitely a good indicator. I like to watch for a few other signs as well, like ridiculously bad luck for a prolonged amount of time, Nightmares especially repeated of repeated themes, bad smells where none should exist, the feeling of being watched with negative vibes like anxiety, etc.

This isn't an exhaustive list of course but good things to look for as indicators.

From an astrological perspective, Saturn in a bad humor can make us feel like we are indeed cursed. So, we should never forget to take a look at sky to know what's going on. Or whatever other "mancy" art we trust.

You arent cursed.

 

[juanitos]

you might find out through divination..tarot cards or other methods. What to do next? try to protect yourself..so many options here...

 

[Veracity]

You arent cursed.

Why do you believe they aren’t cursed?

 

[Accipeveldare]

Why do you believe they aren’t cursed?

Because from my experience curses are mostly psychological, and also, you probably would not need to question it if you were.

I agree with your point that if someone is cursed, they wouldn't really wonder if they were. Maybe if it is early on? But personally, I wouldn't call anything that is psychological a curse. Unless the curse is designed to have a psychological effect of course, like drive someone crazy etc. IMO a curse produces a change/effect in the person even if they don't know about it (and preferably they wouldn't).

To answer your questions. You can check if you are cursed with divination. I recommend pendulum and tarot. I've been cursed many times, symptoms of getting hit have included things such as pounding heart, tachycardia, anxiety, extreme weakness and fatigue, extreme nausea, brief heart stoppages, dead batteries, sudden storms. I've found out by doing divination, and breaking or reversing the curse, and energy cleansing.

However, I wouldn't actually advise you to do any of this. If you are so new to magick that you are asking strangers on the internet what to do, you don't have the skills to handle this yourself. By all means learn divination and curse breaking, but for the future. Right now you need to get a reading by a professional, and if a curse is present, a good professional to break it. You need the reading whether a curse is present or not, to set your mind at ease, because if you think you may be cursed, your subconcious mind can manifest a curse, and the result will be the same.

You also need a daily practice of energy cleansing, and some kind of protection magick, as does everyone.

And don't listen to anyone who tries to tell you that you are not cursed, and it's just psychological. They don't know a thing about baneful magick.

So, I quickly think of the oil method we use in Italy for the evil eye, which also allows you to remove it.
And egg divination is also very powerful, but I've only done it once.
If you have a particular relationship with a divination method (i.e., the one you use most and have a closer connection with), use that, perhaps double-checking by asking a friend for a divination.

Hello Hu96ie! Would you mind talking a little bit more about it? I know about one method using an egg to determine if someone is cursed/has the evil on them, but i don't know if its universal. The method i know about it; consist in taking an egg, rubbing it against your body and every corner of it, cracking the egg in a tall and transparent recipient and then, interpreting the shapes forming at the bottom. Ovomancy is a thing after all. Im curious about your method!

The reason i say a lot of it is psychological is because a lot of curses work better if the victim knows they are cursed. Magick is the act of making the internal or external environment conform with the will, doesnt matter how. So yes, if you did something psychologically to someone that could be a curse in itself. I did not intend to mean all curses are psychological, but from my experience they are most commonly because that is the easiest kind to throw at someone.
I avoid cursing people, but that does not mean i dont have the ability to.

This is exactly the method I used; I tried it once while studying with a Russian medium.
To be more precise, in my case, the egg is rubbed with counterclockwise circular motions, with the intent of absorbing (informations) and/or removing (evil eye).
I don't know where this type of divination originates, but after looking around online, I noticed it's done pretty much the same way everywhere.

I think that @Hu96ie and @Mannimarco points are valid, but I usually just follow into the camp that if you suspect someone is doing something to you then you would just do a reversal of whatever is afflicting you and let the reversal/cursebreaker take care of it. Usually if it is something complicated or something big it can also be dealt with using the reversal, it's just a personal curiosity if you want to cut up the curse and see it from the inside to see what's up with it then you can definitely go with tarot, geomancy, horary, etc to look deeper into it. From Draja's True Magic he mentions the following:

Also overall sometime somethings are "less than a curse" but bigger than normal living, maybe check into uncrossing and cleansing rituals to remove the bad luck or suspected curse. Mary Undoer of Knots prayer, Hyssop bath, cleansing with dragon blood incense, there's so many way you can go about it.

Now that we've discussed all the reasons why someone is probably not cursed in the first place, let's move on to reversing negative spells. The whole process of trying to determine who has cast a spell or curse is a waste of time. It really doesn't make any difference who did the work; the only important thing is that it is removed. Replying to a curse with a curse will only be an escalating factor in a war, and students who do this get caught in a magical-curse syndrome that may end up making them paranoid. Turn from the curse and break it, and let it go. Thank God it's gone, and don't look for negative effects around the one who you think has cast it. The following spells are excellent cursebreakers. They act to return curses and influence to their source. If no curse has been sent, the cursebreakers do not return to you or to the one who has used it.

[Tutorial] - Curse Reversal spells from True Magic by Draja Mickaharic

Following is copied from second chapter of True Magic by Draja, the initial 2-3 pages of the chapter goes into why a person might not be cursed. Other than that, I found these spells to be useful and doable for most people I think. Definitely give it a try if you feel curse. Reversing a Spell...

So, it's my question: how can I check if I was cursed? What practices do you recommend? Also, if you have examples related to this topic, like you were cursed, what it was like, how you managed to find that out, and what you did next?

Let's do it the scholarly way:
First the question, what is a curse. What does Wiki say?
A curse (also called an imprecation, malediction, execration, malison, anathema, or commination) is any expressed wish that some form of adversity or misfortune will befall or attach to one or more persons, a place, or an object.[1] In particular, "curse" may refer to such a wish or pronouncement made effective by a supernatural or spiritual power, such as a god or gods, a spirit, or a natural force, or else as a kind of spell by magic (usually black magic or dark magic) or witchcraft; in the latter sense, a curse can also be called a hex or a jinx. In many belief systems, the curse itself (or accompanying ritual) is considered to have some causative force in the result. To reverse or eliminate a curse is sometimes called "removal" or "breaking", as the spell has to be dispelled, and often requires elaborate rituals or prayers.

Couldn't said it better myself. So the next question is, by whom or what did you get cursed. By another person? Then we have the questions "Who?", "How?" "Why?". Or did you came in contact with the curse by accident, entering a - well - cursed place, like in the movie "The Grudge". Or did you anger a god or spirit, e.g. by entering a sacred place or killing a sacred animal, like a dolphin or a raven?

Your countermeasures depend on the results of this contemplation and can be manifold. The internet nowadays is full suggestions and with a little research you should come up with stuff.

I like to recommend the good old classic Lesser Banishing Ritual of the Pentagram. There are five million instruction videos on Youtube and a lot webpages with instruction. Important is the visualization and vibrations, and you have to believe in it. Don't just do something a stranger tells you on the internet, reconsider before you take action, and believe!

There is another method, the more folkloristic way. I learned it from a good friend of mine, Dr. Steve Brule, who joined a draconian coven in Moldavia, to study the traditional teachings of the Solomonari, an ancient cult of storm wizards.

At midnight in a full-moon night (of course!) go find an old oak tree, take of your clothes. Embalm yourself in eggnog or a different alcoholic beverage of your choice (it should be sticky).
Then dance around the tree counterclockwise (some music should help) and proclaim loudly, while spanking yourself with a birch branch on your naked butt:
HERE I STAND A FOOL BEFORE
KNOCK KNOCK KNOCK ON HELL'S DOOR
MAKE ME WHIMPER, MAKE ME SCREAM
TAKE THIS CURSE OFF OF MEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!

The emphasis in the last sentence should be on "me", yell it really loud. And don't spare with the spanking! No result without sacrifice. This bottom of yours should be cherry-red by now!

Then go back home, still naked and sticky, with a sore bum, and take a good look at yourself in a mirror. Stare yourself right in the eyes and ask yourself if this was really worth doing it. If your answer is "yes", then you are really cursed!
