Greetings, Gifted Reader!
Apologies to subscribers of this blog for this very late post, but
a series of psychic mishaps has caused Gypsy Stars to be late in publishing it
this month.
Gifted Readers, do you believe in psychic demons? Do you
think it’s possible for those whom you consider enemies to generate negative
energy and send it your way so that you bumble, stumble and fall when it comes
to very ordinary, mundane tasks?

Throughout history, in nearly every culture on the planet,
there have been folks putting curses and spells on other folks. Instead of
taking on the object of their hatred physically, the person may engage a priest
or shaman to perform a ritual for the purpose of bringing harm to another through otherworldly means. By creating spiritual discord through the use of implements,
the object of the curse might fall sick or become damaged in some way. Some
rituals for curses are quite complex and involved.
But do they work? Or, is it just our imaginations running
away with us? Can our fears or negative thinking influence us so strongly that
we, in effect, end up putting the curse on ourselves?

It’s like that old Twilight Zone television episode, The Monsters on Maple Street, where rumors and innuendo create havoc in people’s imaginations and
escalate to the point of disaster. On a suburban street, in a middle-class
neighborhood, a power outage has occurred. As neighbors gather in the darkness
to determine the cause, one of them volunteers to check out the area beyond
their neighborhood. Another man agrees to do the same, but a little boy warns
that the outage might be the result of an alien invasion. He goes on to explain
that in one of his comic books, extraterrestrials invaded a neighborhood by causing
a blackout before disguising one of themselves as a human being. Soon, the
neighbors are loudly airing their suspicions about each other. Why does one
neighbor’s car suddenly start by itself? And, another has been observed
standing outside late at night looking at the sky--while another secretly
listens to his radio in his basement. The neighbors get so worked up in their
wild accusations that when they spot a lone figure approaching them, one of
them grabs a shotgun and shoots without asking questions. Tragically, the dead
man turns out to be the volunteer who had gone to check out the rest of the
area.
do voodoo, or do we do? |
So the lesson of the story, and the lesson for all those who have
ever felt they were cursed, is that it doesn’t take anyone outside of you to
put a hex on you. Our minds are so powerful that we only need to think that
something bad, evil or foul has possessed us and we will create the resulting
chaos, or even illness.
Remember to keep your thoughts cheerful, happy and smiling within
your spirit. You are a shining star in the loving heavens of this wonderful
world. Irie.
