BREAKING CURSES & CURING BAD LUCK: ‘CUZ SOMETIMES IT’S REAL! 🧿✨

As a divine healer, Amaya specializes in the weird stuff: dark or adverse forces, reversing black magic, demon possessions, disease, and all the unexplainable or really crappy things that people experience.

Fascinatingly, the most common request she gets from clients is to check for ancestral curses, black magic curses, and anything that might be forcing bad luck or sabotage.

So we figured, today would be a fine day to demystify the spooky and point you toward some resources if this is an inquiry of yours as well!

Curses can manifest in various forms, from ritually spoken ill-will to unintentional energetic attachments to ancestral curses passed down the line through blood or lineage. A curse can also last across lifetimes, affecting you long after any memory of the one who cursed you or why.

One can purposely or even accidentally curse another by consistently focusing attention with ill-will and a lot of negative charge. Curses, therefore are far more common than you may think.

Bad luck, while seemingly random, can also stem from persistent negative patterns in your life. It can also be caused by cursed objects, even if you encountered the object in a past life and no longer have it with you!

Yikes, right?! But the good news is that curses and bad luck can stick ONLY because they work on the basis of free will agreement.

Bad luck and curses do not mean you are powerless or weak or cannot protect yourself. The opposite is in fact true.

To receive a curse, something in you has to be willing to agree to that energy (usually due to emotional trauma and not through any fault or intention of your own).

This means that once you are aware of it, you can break that agreement and use your own personal power to nullify the curse or bad luck.

WHERE DO CURSES COME FROM?

THE PSYCHOLOGICAL ASPECT: 🧠 Often, curses are rooted in subconscious fears and limiting beliefs. We may unconsciously attract negativity, creating a self-fulfilling prophecy. Cultivating self-awareness and addressing these underlying issues is key to breaking free.

💡Pay close attention to recurring patterns in your relationships and life events. Do you find yourself attracting similar types of people or situations? These patterns can reveal underlying beliefs and fears that need to be addressed.

ANCESTRAL INFLUENCES: 👩‍👩‍👧‍👧 Inherited patterns and traumas can also manifest as curses or bad luck. Healing ancestral wounds through therapy or energy work can help break these patterns and pave the way for a brighter future.

💡Explore your family history. Look for recurring patterns of hardship or misfortune. This awareness is the first step towards healing. Consider seeking guidance from a therapist or energy healer specializing in ancestral healing.

Practices like Family Constellation therapy or shamanic journeying can be transformative. 🪶✨

ENERGETIC BLOCKAGES: ⚡ 🫥 Our energy fields can become stagnant or disrupted, leading to bad luck. Practices like aura cleansing and chakra balancing can restore energetic flow.

💡 Pay attention to your feelings and intuition. If you feel consistently drained or out of balance, it could be a sign of energetic blockage. Incorporate practices like smudging, crystal healing, or energy work into your routine to clear and revitalize your energy field.

⚠️ SOME CURSES INTEND HARM AND REQUIRE PROTECTION

We are all about personal power here at SOMA. We don’t believe in creating fear or the idea that you need anything or anyone outside of yourself.

The only caveat to that is if you experience severe emotional suffering, physical pains for no reason, suicidal ideation or torment. These can be the signs of intentional curses or possession - and must be handled by an experienced practitioner or the Divine.

HEAVY DUTY CURSES BY A PRACTITIONER: 🧙‍♂️🧹 Sometimes, a curse is tracked back to a past life where an experienced practitioner (a witch, wizard, shaman, or dark practitioner) placed it.

These types of curses can take some extra handling from the Divine or an experienced healer to clear all aspects, stacked energies and consequences of the curse, safely. Consider working with an experienced healer for these.

SELF-CURSES: 🤦‍♂️💣 The other type of curse that is quite common, but also complicated to address, are curses we have placed on ourselves in some past life because we believed we deserved it, or needed to shut down our higher dimensional abilities to protect ourselves or others.

While most think if they cursed themselves, they must have done something wrong - often it is misplaced punishment or done to protect something as a last resort.

These curses do not have intent to harm us, however other entities or energies with intent to harm can get into our space on the agreements in a self-curse to keep us shut down or out of touch with our personal power.

In extreme cases this or other types of agreements can lead to possession that causes us internal torment.

❗ NOTE: If you ever experience a sense of being attacked, dark thoughts that don’t feel like they’re yours, or you are emotionally or physically tormented, it may be a sign of a more serious curse or possession - contact Amaya here.

She will always do a quick read to determine what you are dealing with and give recommendations, no obligation.

All communication is confidential and with unconditional love. These are more common than you think and it doesn’t mean anything shameful or bad.

RITUALS & PRACTICES: TOOLS FOR TRANSFORMATION 🛠️

CLEANSING & PROTECTION: 🚿 🤍 

Specific rituals and practices for cleansing spaces, objects, and individuals from negative energy include smudging, salt baths, and crystal grids. Create protective shields and energetic boundaries through visualization and affirmations.

TO ACTIVATE THIS POWER: 🧂🥥 For a quick energetic refresh, try a simple salt scrub! Mix sea salt with a carrier oil like coconut or olive oil and gently massage it into your skin before showering.

This helps to exfoliate and cleanse your aura. Imagine yourself surrounded by a bubble of white light, deflecting any negativity. Repeat affirmations like, "I am protected and safe within my own energy field.

👉 For in depth guidance and exercises, we recommend Protect Your Light for substantial cleansing and protection.

REVERSAL & TRANSFORMATION: ✂️ 🧶

Techniques for reversing curses and transforming bad luck into positive opportunities include cord-cutting rituals, mirror magic, and setting powerful intentions.

TO ACTIVATE THIS POWER: ✨ Choose a ritual that resonates with you. For cord-cutting, visualize negative ties being severed. For mirror magic, use a mirror to reflect positive affirmations back to yourself. The power of intention is key - focus on the positive outcomes you desire.

👉 For in depth guidance and exercises, we recommend Psychic Psychology for safe and careful reversal and transformation.

CULTIVATING A LUCK-ATTRACTING MINDSET: ☘️ 🧠 

Mindfulness helps us recognize and interrupt negative thought patterns, making conscious choices. Cultivating gratitude and a positive outlook can attract more abundance and good fortune.

TO ACTIVATE THIS POWER: 🧘‍♀️ Incorporate mindfulness into daily life through meditation, journaling, and mindful breathing. Journaling exercises and affirmations foster a mindset of abundance.

BEYOND SUPERSTITION: THE SCIENCE OF LUCK 🔬☘️

THE PLACEBO EFFECT & THE POWER OF BELIEF: 🤨 

Science has repeatedly demonstrated the power of the placebo effect, where simply believing in a treatment's efficacy can lead to actual improvement. This phenomenon highlights the profound connection between our minds and bodies, and how our expectations can shape our reality.

💡 Even if a "curse" or "bad luck" has no basis in objective reality, if we believe it to be true, it can manifest in our lives through stress, anxiety, and self-sabotaging behaviors.

MINDSET SHIFT- THE KEY TO TRANSFORMATION: 😎 

By consciously shifting your mindset, you can break free from the grip of negativity and create tangible changes in your experiences.

💡 Cultivate a positive outlook, focus on your strengths and blessings, and challenge any limiting beliefs that may be holding you back.

COGNITIVE BIASES - THE MIND’S FILTERS: ☠️ 

Your brain is wired to simplify the world around you, but this can lead to cognitive biases - mental shortcuts that distort your perception of reality. You might focus on information that confirms your existing beliefs (confirmation bias) or overestimate the likelihood of negative events happening to you (availability heuristic). These biases can reinforce feelings of bad luck, making you more likely to notice and dwell on misfortunes.

BREAK FREE FROM THE CYCLE: 🔄 

Challenging these biases requires conscious effort.

💡 Start by questioning your assumptions and seeking out diverse perspectives. Practice gratitude to counter negativity bias, and focus on solutions instead of dwelling on problems.

CONCLUSION: EMBRACE YOUR POWER TO CREATE CHANGE 🌈

Breaking curses and transforming bad luck can be an empowering process. Many often think that the presence of these proves they are shameful or bad and wrong.

The truth is that the harder we try to connect to our divinity, our goodness, our Light… sometimes the more their manifest opposites in Duality react and oppose us.

Additionally, no matter how extensive, dangerous or scary a curse is, after hundreds of curse removals, we’ve yet to ever witness a case the divine couldn’t beautifully handle. We don’t have to suffer. And YOU hold the most power of any energy in your space. You have the right to be free of anything that holds you back. ✨
