Scarlet Magdalene recently published a helpful guide on Patheos Pagan for deciding whether or not someone has been cursed or hexed I recommend checking it out and giving it a good think if this sounds like your situation.Īs I mentioned in my last post, my husband and I recently bought an old house in the mountains. This can happen when a shift or transformation happens - a birth, a death, moving house - creating liminal times and spaces that make everything within its sphere more vulnerable (and desirable) to misery-making things. Rarely, however, I do find that something else seems to be at work. Not every misfortune is a product of the evil eye or a malefic spirit but part of the natural flux of life that keeps a necessary, healthy, wavering sort of balance.
Most of the time, I believe that bad things just happen.
