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. |

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,
