The evil eye and hamza hand talisman Linda Thursday, August 12, 2010

Question:

I did not know what these things were about until I read about them on your website. I can remember one of my daughters, maybe both of them, showing me bracelets that looked like the ones you were displaying as having the evil eye. I didn't know they were supposed to be an evil eye, and said they looked cute. Then, not that long ago, one of my grandson's motioned to me at a hamza hand talisman at his and my daughter, Laurie's home. He didn't say what it was, and I didn't say anything, but had an uncomfortable feeling looking at it. He and my daughter also have "runes". I never felt comfortable about these runes, and I believe Laurie told my other daughter about the runes, and she got her sister involved using them.

I didn't know these things could cause demonic posession, but I always felt very uneasy about them. If my daughters have these things in their homes, does that mean that they are possessed?

I have also wondered for some time now if I am under a curse or spell. I went from approx 130 pounds to around 94 pounds. I am skin and bones, and very sickly. One of my daughters is very vociferous about Wicca. I am sure she may be a witch. If I say anything against Wicca or Communism, she gets very upset. I believe she has convinced her son to believe in these things. She adopted him when he was around 11, he is 16 now, and he gets into rages with her and she says he gets psychotic, I believe she said. She calls the police on him and gets him put in institutions. The last time he was in one, he tried to slam a door as hard he could on her fingers. She somehow protected her fingers with her arm, I think. She said he would have severed her fingers probably if she had not shoved her arm I think in the door. He doesn't get violent with me. He is very affectionate with me. He puts his arm around me if we are walking, and I don't know if it is OK for a grandson that age to kiss his grandmother on the lips, but he does with me. I feel afraid that if she and he are posessed, they will go to hell. I think she talked my other daughter into not going to church and not getting her three children baptized. My other daughter was pregnant out of wedlock, twice. She miscarried the first baby from one man. Then she met another man, became pregnant out of wedlock and married when she was 8 months pregnant. She divorced him, and lived with another man and my grandson from the first marraige. She eventually married again, and had two children with her second husband. None of the marriages were in the Catholic Church. The first marraige was performed by a Justice of the Peace. The second one was in some type of a New Age church. The woman performing the ceremony gave me the creeps.

Will both of my daughters and their children go to hell? I pray the rosary all the time for them, myself, and everybody who would go to hell if nobody was praying for them. I also ask God to take the souls in purgatory to heaven.



Question Answered by Bro. Ignatius Mary, OLSM

Dear Linda:

I am sorry to hear about your daughters. Certainly, the path they are on, as you have described it, is not a good one. But, as far as their eternal destiny, only God knows that. The Church teaches that mitigating circumstances that impairs a person's true freedom to choose can reduce a person's culpability. We can hope and pray that your daughters will come back to God, or that they have some mitigating issues that only God knows.

As for possession, that is rare. It is more common for people to have lower levels of demonization as a result of their actions. If your girls have any demonization, it would most likely be of the lower kind.

A person who is demonized, or for that matter, even a person who is fully possessed, can still go to heaven. The devil cannot possess a person's soul, thus even a possessed person can be in a State of Grace.

What you need to do as a parent is to pray for them. There is a Hedge Prayer for the Wayward Person located in our Spiritual Warfare Prayer Catalog linked below that I would recommend.

If you believe that you are personally under a spell then I would recommend praying regularly the Prayer to Break Curses and Spells also found in our Catalog.

You daughters are certainly in a pickle of their own choosing, and taking their kids along for the ride. Pray for them and never give up.

God Bless,
Bro. Ignatius Mary
