Have you (or anyone you know) been a "victim" of Santeria witchcraft?

Question

If yes...please say what happened. If no..please tell any information you have about it. Thanks!

Answer 1

reading your additional details, you wouldn't have to send it back.... the "threefold law" in wicca states whatever energy you send out comes back threefold.... bad energy out, bad energy in.

fyi santeria isn't JUST for bad... hoodoo and the like is almost rarely used for bad purposes... mainly for healing. they also believe in very strong connections with their ancestors. i hope you didn't p**s off the wrong person! just remember they are suffering/will suffer as well.

Answer 2

Santeria witchcraft is akin to hoodoo. It is, in my humble opinion, no better or worse than any other form of witchcraft.

Would you ask someone if they had been a "victim" of traditional witchcraft?

The ability to harm is inherent in any kind of magic, not just the lesser known kinds. That ability comes from the heart of the caster.

Magic is energy. You change and manipulate said energy to create and effect changes. Those changes could be either good or bad. It is you as a caster that has to live with and deal with the consequences of your actions.  :)

You should be treating any and all branches of magic with respect if you intend working with them.

Just my humble take on it anyways.

Answer 3

I have been the victim of sangria many times.  It was fun.

Answer 4

I suppose each area has it's special names.

I remember a tale from Cassandra in Cornwall. She went to visit a village in India at their request - because the local witchdoctor had cursed them.

She went out and found it was indeed coming from him. After protection and removal of this, the people were a lot happier and thanked her when she left. She did not charge for her service to them.

She recievad a message from the village elders on her return. Apparently the witchdoctor had died in his sleep.

When you send out negative energy - and it bounces, it often comes back harder on yourself. Which is why we don't do it.

Answer 5

I have a cautionary tale - I know someone who tried to put a death spell on somone, went to a Santeria person and got a formula for using a cow tongue buried in a freshly dug grave. Since the universe if full of coincidence - the curse backfired and the person who was the target  is still alive, the niece of the person trying to cast the spell (who happened to be the granddaughter of the target) died at her own hand.

I warned the person not to engage in that sort of thing since my own mother believed in it. I told that person that Santeria is not for the uninitiated and the spells tend to backfire when you don't believe and try to use them for harm

I believe that I cannot be harmed because my mother would have given protection from evil to her children. She paid a heavy price that protection. No, I am not a practitioner... I am by default part of that culture though.
