How to protect yourself from damage and witchcraft
Russia has never been a completely Orthodox country.
The low population density and remoteness from shopping and cultural centers did not allow active preaching and monitoring the state of the souls of converts. The majority of the clergy were also illiterate. Not all of them could clearly explain certain aspects of the doctrine. All this led to the fact that the worldview and psychology of the population of Rus' remained pagan.
1826 this year, peasants explained the disease that broke out in the village as the machinations of sorcerers
The Bolsheviks also failed to defeat paganism. The atheistic policy was directed not only against the Orthodox Church, but also against superstitions, sorcerers and healers. Like the Christians, all these figures went underground.
Everything changed with perestroika, and then the 90s. Everything became possible, anti-religious politics became a thing of the past. The church returned to public life, and with it the return (and appearance of new) sorcerers, psychics and magicians.
Newspapers were filled with advertisements about figures who promised a range of household magic services: bewitch, jinx, etc. The worst thing is that some of these figures present themselves as Orthodox.
A torrent of wild superstitious dirt poured out on souls who had lost the habit and yearned for God. Not everyone could resist. Many people began to ask questions like “How to protect yourself from damage and witchcraft?”, “How to protect loved ones from enemies and witchcraft.”
The problem is that corruption and witchcraft in the sense that ordinary people understand it do not exist.
In the 21st century people continue to believe in damage and the evil eye
What to do next
God's help in the fight against evil spirits is the strongest and safest way to get rid of the influence of witchcraft. But it should be understood that after carrying out church cleansing, a person must completely reconsider his attitude towards life, the people around him, and God. He will have to observe fasts, attend church and lead a righteous life.
Are you ready for such drastic changes? If yes, then go to church soon. If you are not ready to give up your usual way of life and thinking, then a magician or psychic will help remove the damage. You can find the right person in your region or write to me. I will definitely diagnose your condition and tell you what measures you need to take to get rid of the negativity.

The Bible condemns witchcraft and offers a reliable remedy for getting rid of fortune tellers
Damage, the evil eye, witchcraft - all this relates to paganism, to ancient, primitive ideas about the world. The pagans believed that it was possible to influence the material world with the help of magic and communicate with spirits. With the advent of the Old Testament and the organized Jewish religion, churchmen waged a merciless struggle against previous beliefs.
Modern “official” pagan religions – Shinto and Hinduism
The Old Testament warns about witchcraft:
(Lev. 19:26)
do not tell fortunes and do not guess,
(Lev 19:31)
do not turn to those who summon the dead, and do not go to wizards, do not bring yourself to the point of defilement from them
(Deut. 18:10)
One who conducts his son or daughter through fire, a soothsayer, a fortuneteller, a sorceress, a sorcerer, shall not be present with you.
Methods of protection against witchcraft were extremely simple:
(Exodus 22:18)
Don't leave the witches alive
In the Middle Ages, the issue of removing damage, black magic and getting rid of sorcerers and witches was resolved quickly and simply
The New Testament also pays attention to witchcraft:
(Gal. 5:19)
The works of the flesh are known; they are: adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lasciviousness,
(Gal. 5:20)
idolatry, sorcery, enmity, quarrels, envy, anger, strife, discord, heresies
(Rev. 21:8)
But the fearful and unbelieving and the abominable and murderers and fornicators and sorcerers and idolaters and all liars will have their part in the lake that burns with fire and brimstone. This is the second death"
Icon: meaning in Orthodoxy
The Orthodox Church reveres holy icons (images) - images of the Lord, the Mother of God, holy saints, heavenly powers. Christian icon veneration (dogma of the Seventh Ecumenical Council, 787, Nicaea) has nothing in common with idolatry.
“All types of veneration of icons, rendered by Orthodox Christians, according to the instructions of the church, are pleasing to God himself. Otherwise, He would not have worked miracles through the icons of saints” (Archbishop Sergius Spassky, 1830-1904).
Believers honor and worship not the icon as an object, but the prototype depicted on it - the Lord Jesus Christ himself, the Mother of God, saints and angelic powers. The icon against the evil eye and damage has nothing to do with such perception.
“An icon is a means of communication with God and with the saints... It should be added that communication through icons is also carried out in the “reverse direction.” Not only do we turn to God through icons, but He also answers us through icons. Through icons of Christ, believers are given gifts of grace, including in an obvious way - through the flow of myrrh, miraculous renewals of icons, miraculous healings. This is also true in relation to the icons of the Mother of God and saints” (priest Oleg Davydenkov).
How to resist witchcraft on your own? Don't believe in him
If a person regularly attends church, does not do evil to his neighbor, and keeps God’s commandments, then no one will ever be able to “bring” any damage or evil eye.
On the contrary, if a person leads an evil and sinful life, the Lord’s punishment falls on him. The soul of a sinner becomes open to demons, who rush towards it in a legion.
Belief in witchcraft is a sin, and hell awaits sinners
Paisiy Svyatogorets explains:
Paisiy Svyatogorets Saint
Once witchcraft worked, it means that the person gave the devil rights over himself. That is, he gave the devil some serious reason and then did not order himself through repentance and confession.
If a person confesses, then the damage - even if it is shoveled under him - does not harm him. This happens because when a person confesses and has a pure heart, sorcerers cannot “work together” with the devil in order to harm this person.”
The search for sorcerers is an attempt to avoid responsibility for one’s affairs. If the day is not going well, then it is much more pleasant to think that your neighbor has an evil eye, and not that you yourself were rude to your parents the day before yesterday.
Holy Fathers of the Church on Witchcraft
- “Even if we are sick, it is better to remain sick than to fall into wickedness (resorting to conspiracies) to free ourselves from illness. The demon, even if he heals, will do more harm than good. It will benefit the body, which after a little while will certainly die and rot, and harm the immortal soul. If sometimes, by God’s permission, demons heal (through divination), then such healing happens to test the faithful, not because God does not know them, but so that they learn not to accept even healing from demons.”
- “The demoniacs cry out: “I am the soul of such and such a person!” But this is also the cunning and deception of the devil. It is not the soul of some dead person who cries out, but a demon pretending to do so to deceive the listeners.”
- “Just as slave traders, offering small children pies, sweet fruits and the like, often ensnare them with such bait and deprive them of freedom and even life itself, so sorcerers, promising to cure a disease, deprive a person of the salvation of his soul.”
- “Do not voluntarily resort to fortune-telling, but if you are attracted to this by others, then do not agree... A person always wants to know the invisible, especially wants to know in advance about his misfortunes, so as not to fall into confusion as a result of the unexpected... But if you listen to fortune-telling, you will are unworthy of God’s favor and mercy, and thereby prepare for yourself numerous disasters.”
- “The fortuneteller is an evil demon who speaks from the wombs of ventriloquist women and with this strange action tries to make the false credible; “He speaks not naturally, but from the stomach, and by this he plunges ignorant people into amazement, forcing them to believe that he speaks the truth.”
- “What, for example, does star divination mean? Nothing more than lies and confusion, in which everything happens at random and not only by eye, but also senselessly.”
Saint John Chrysostom
“Do not be curious about the future, but make good use of the present. For what benefit is there for you to anticipate the command? If the future brings you something good, it will come, although you did not know it in advance. And if it is sorrowful, why languish in sorrow until the end? Do you want to make sure of the future? Fulfill what is prescribed by the Gospel Law and expect to enjoy blessings.”
Saint Basil the Great
“The carnalist in real life has a desire to look into the future in order to avoid troubles or achieve what he wants. Therefore, so that people do not turn their gaze to God, the demonic nature, full of deception, has invented many ways to find out the future: for example, fortune telling, interpretation of signs, divination, calling the dead, frenzy, influxes of deities, inspiration, cards and much more. And if any kind of foresight, as a result of some deception, is recognized as true, the demon presents it to the deceived as justification for the false proposal. And the demonic trick points out every false sign to those who are being deceived, so that people, having departed from God, turn to serving the demons. One of the types of deception was the deception of ventriloquists, who believed that their sorcery could attract the souls of the dead again into this life.”
Saint Gregory of Nyssa
Saints Cyprian and Justinia will help protect the family from sorcerers and witches
Prayer to Saints Cyprian and Justinier will protect you from magic
It can be difficult for a person to change established beliefs. If a person has believed in witchcraft all his life, it is difficult to change his views in an instant.
You can't just stop believing in magic
If thoughts about sorcerers, the evil eye, damage and other pagan relics do not go away, you need to pray to Saints Cyprian and Justina. In the Christian Church they are considered protectors against witchcraft.
Before baptism, Cyprian was a black magician and served the devil
The prayer to Saints Cyprian and Justina sounds like this:
Oh, holy martyr Cyprian and martyr Justin! Hear our humble prayer. Even though you naturally died your temporary life as a martyr for Christ, you do not depart from us in spirit, always following the commandments of the Lord to teach us and to patiently bear your cross to help us. Behold, boldness towards Christ God and His Most Pure Mothers has been acquired by nature. In the same way, even now, you will be prayers and intercessors for us, the unworthy (names).
Be our intercessors of the fortress, so that through your intercession we may remain unharmed from demons, wise men and evil men, glorifying the Holy Trinity: the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit, now and ever, and forever and ever. Amen.
Those who practice witchcraft also invent a lot of lies.
— Geronda, do sorcerers receive any revelations about a person, about current events, etc.?
“It happens that they learn about something from the devil, but they themselves invent many different lies. Those of you who are obedient in the archondarik [ 5 ] must be attentive. You must not let what is happening there get out of control. You need to look at what kind of people visit the monastery, because someone involved in witchcraft may come. Does this seem surprising to you? Once, two people involved in witchcraft came here for one all-night vigil. They pestered people and fooled them. They also deceived everyone by allegedly maintaining contact with Metropolitan Augustine [ 6 ]. They said to one woman: “They have damaged you. Let’s come to your home and remove the damage from you using the cross that we have.” And people, seeing how sorcerers come to vigils and talk about spiritual things, think: “But since they go to vigils, that means they are believers” - and open their hearts to deceivers. How they fool people with their lies! One such liar, wanting to deceive the girl, told her: “Father Paisius had a vision that you and I would get married. So take this little thing and put it around your neck. But don’t look what’s inside!” And he gave her some kind of witchcraft talisman. Fortunately, the girl did not put it on herself. “Oh, so it means that Father Paisiy is engaged in such “stuff!” - she boiled. Without thinking twice, she sat down at the table and wrote me a letter - full of strong expressions. Four pages of neat handwriting! She scolded me with the very last words! “Have a fight, have a fight,” I said, reading the letter, “it’s okay. For me, your swearing is like a balm - after all, you didn’t let yourself be deceived and didn’t put the demonic amulet on yourself!”
- Did she know you, Geronda?
- No, I did not know. And I didn’t know them either: neither her nor that deceiver.
