How to find out who casts evil on you

1. I feel very bad, as if pressed from inside...

2. I feel that something bad is about to happen...

4. Everything slips through my fingers — problems, failures, bad luck, thefts, losses...

6. I hate myself, I disgust myself, I stink — or there is a stench around me, a strange smell...

8. Everyone has suddenly changed their attitude toward me for the worse...

10. I am shaking and overwhelmed, my hands turn cold, and everything clenches in my chest...

These are only some of the signs that a person carries hexed harm (porcha). The list would be very long if everything were described. And people very often ask: so who is laying this porcha on me? Who is doing all this to me? Where is this negativity coming from?

I will answer everyone honestly: in truth I am strongly against naming the people who lay porcha on you.

Not because I am afraid you will go and kill that person. You would need considerable strength to carry that out. It is far from simple.

I hold that such an aggressor, directing invisible evil against you, should be treated at least neutrally, with indifference! Better still, lift the porcha from yourself and treat them positively. Now I will try to explain why I think so.

If you learn who wishes this upon you and lays porcha, the porcha will not lift itself from you or go anywhere. If you cut off contact with that person, the porcha still will not lift — it may neutralise itself only after a long stretch of time, many years.

Revenge! That is what will happen. And hatred, and cutting off contact with such a person. Which will worsen your karma many times over, and your life in truth. Even plain hatred toward that person, breaking off contact with them, limiting contact with them — that is your revenge, especially if they are your own close or distant relative. They will suffer because you stop talking to them, limit contact.

And what happens to us when we hate? When we hate our enemies, or simply people we meet daily who even harm us — for something, or for nothing, bringing us harm — people we have to work with and keep running into in life.

We do nothing yet, we take no real revenge on them for now — we merely hate them, treat them with contempt and disgust, and break off all contact with them, because they harm us and lay porcha, or simply treat them so by dint of a character that feels disgust toward people. Whether they work sorcery against us or we simply dislike them and find them irritating.

Help from above ceases for people who act this way. The Higher Powers and the Angels stop hearing you! Your Guardian Angel treats you the same way you treat your enemies and all people in general. You lose the grace-filled energy of the bright forces and become food for the dark ones. Then walk from church to church, from sorcerer to sorcerer, go round in circles — it will do you no good, there will be no salvation from your troubles. You will not be heard!

Why so? Grace is a very strong and mighty energy — bright, divine. Grace is when we receive what we are unworthy of and have not earned. It is like winning the super lottery. In it is everything needed to feel like a completely happy person — a gift, and all manner of gifts individually to each, to whoever has earned this energy, of course. Grace is everything a person could wish for themselves.

Meanwhile, by the special providence of the Almighty, writes the church booklet, the radiance of Grace — that most mighty energy — may be shown even to a very sinful person, and even in a perceptible form. To what end? In each particular case there is a special providential purpose.

So how, you will say, should we treat an enemy who lays porcha on us and wishes us dead? It is very simple: have the porcha lifted by a specialist, forgive the one who lays it — sincerely, with all your heart — and pity them, for they are surely unhappy and lack this special energy of the Higher Powers — Grace — and have no happiness! They are food for the dark ones, their eternal donor! And their life on earth is hell! And their body is sheer rot!

There are very few such people who can forgive and let go at once — but they exist, I have met them, such people exist. Most cannot forgive. How can we forgive, when on one side the crown presses on the halo, and on the other pride swells, and our ego screams with pain: How dare they lay porcha on me? And we cannot grasp with our minds that, most likely, there was a reason!

If the pain inflicted on you has reached its peak and you truly cannot forgive! The pain inflicted on you is such that you have no strength to forgive it. Then lift the porcha from yourself, take revenge! And forget! You must forget — it is vital to forget everything, and your pain at once! Otherwise things will only get worse for you.

And of course there are cases when it is very important to find out who lays porcha on you, and exactly how they do it. What they use in their work as they act upon you. For an aggressor can repeat their workings against you countless times.

Porcha may touch your kin and loved ones and cause them pain too.

Knowing how the porcha was made, what was used, and who made it, the porcha can be lifted very easily and quickly. Lifting porcha on your own is unlikely to work. Better to turn to a specialist.

And having performed such rites, you will know for certain who wishes you evil, who lays porcha.

Take three thin church candles and an ordinary glass, preferably a faceted one. Stand the three candles in the glass so they do not touch its walls, fixing them to the bottom. Pour water in to half.

Now light them with a single match and read the charm into an open window, with your little fingers linked, forty times:

Until the sinner repents, may they writhe from my candle. May they come to my threshold and repent of all evil deeds. Amen.

The rite is best performed at night, in the so-called witches' hour — from 3 a.m. until the first roosters. When the wicks start guttering out from the water, take them out of the water. Hide them in the western corner. Leave the glass of water on the windowsill. Then go to sleep without uttering a word.

For a week, pay attention to everyone who enters your home. The enemy will not always ask forgiveness and repent, despite the words of the charm. They may simply behave strangely, force themselves on you, come with requests. Often in such cases they drop in for salt or baking soda, call, ask strange questions.

If you suspect that the person craving contact with you is the cause of your troubles, do not talk to them and give them nothing until you have lifted the porcha from yourself.

For the rite you will need seven keys in constant use — they may be yours, from the front door, the safe, the garage — or you may borrow a few from loved ones who live with you.

Wait until the full moon rises in the sky, and boil water in a large pot. Now throw all the keys into the boiling water, saying:

Whoever bears evil toward God's servant (name), may the unclean one bring them to my threshold tomorrow. Amen.

Let the keys boil for about ten minutes, then cool the water, take them out, and pour the resulting brew beyond your home's threshold.

It is held that whoever laid the porcha will unexpectedly look in on you the next day — though in some cases they may signal themselves differently: by calling or appearing in a dream. The keys may be used the next day, after rinsing them with water.

After you have worked the charm on the seven keys, whoever laid the porcha will try to find you or call, asking your forgiveness. Answer briefly:

The villain behaves so because they feel very bad. Try not to let into your home people who stubbornly try to get in. Exercise caution.

Try setting protection upon your energy field, so as not to expose yourself to danger in future. You may simply read the Our Father every day. Morning and evening.

To see who wishes you evil, you may summon a prophetic dream. Relax, cast surplus thoughts from your head, and in the evening, before lying down to sleep, prepare to read the charm. Do not think of the offender, and least of all try to guess who did it, sifting through the faces of acquaintances. Speak these words:

I walk in rows, I gaze with my eyes. Among the bright rows is Saint Samson. In the name of God, eternal and living, I speak the holy word: Saint Samson, show me a prophetic dream. May Saint Samson point out my enemy to me, show me their face through a prophetic dream. Living and most holy Trinity, help; Lord Jesus Christ, bless my dream. In the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit. Now and ever and unto ages of ages. Amen.

Now lie down at once and try to fall asleep quickly. After waking, do not touch your head with your hand. It is good to prepare a sheet of paper and a pen beforehand — in case you wake in the night from a prophetic dream. Then you can write down the offender's name, so as not to forget it by morning.

Take the plainest nail and hammer it into your threshold, saying these words:

Whoever wished me evil and sent porcha, I summon you with the nail. If you do not come within three nights, you will land in a grave within half a year!

Now be prepared for the offender to come visiting — but know that this rite belongs to black magic, and if you do not allow for that, do not perform it.

There is also a stronger ritual, requiring a graveyard nail. It must either be found in a graveyard or taken from a coffin lid — but never touched with bare hands. Then repeat the same workings as in the first case, only adding to the charm:

Whoever wished me evil and sent porcha, I summon you with the nail. If you do not come within three nights, you will land in a grave within half a year. Graveyard, coffin, nail. I await you as my invited guest!

When the person appears, they will look haggard, pale and worn out.

You will need only water and wax to perform the ritual. But it is not as simple as it seems: the water must be clean — filtered or spring water — and the wax natural, beeswax. Paraffin will not do for this rite; with it you will not learn the truth.

Take a wide, opaque bowl and pour water into it. Then melt beeswax in a water bath. Begin pouring it into the water in a thin stream, speaking these words:

When the figure sets on the surface of the water, you may take it out and look at it closely. If you see the moon, a woman's silhouette or a flower, your enemy is a woman; but if the wax has taken the shape of a rectangle, a crow or a bear — a man.

Sometimes the wax may pour into the profile or silhouette of the person who wishes you evil. Letters may be the enemy's initials, and numbers the date when they worked the ritual. If nothing is clear the first time, do not be upset — the ritual may be repeated. It means the sorcerer holds great power and all is hidden from your eyes.

Buy two candles in church, bring them home, and begin the ritual. Light one candle, and break the other, melting the piece of wax you broke off over the wick of the first candle. Now pour it into a bowl of water and wait until the second candle, which should stand nearby, burns down. Study the figure, try to discern shapes.

Then take three needles and stick them one by one into the wax, saying each time:

Point into water! Water — under the threshold! Whoever worked evil upon God's servant (name), come to my threshold. Appear without fear, show yourself to me! Amen.

Now place the bowl of water and wax by the entrance overnight, covered with a white cloth. In the morning the enemy will surely reveal themselves — by calling, coming to your home, or meeting you in the street.

Once you have learned who laid the porcha, it must be lifted. For this, turn to mages who know their craft well. If the porcha was laid by a professional, you will not manage to lift it on your own.

But if it was light, or laid by an amateur, you may well try your luck.

After the porcha is lifted by a specialist, you may keep talking to the aggressor — but you must carry protection, a ward (oberih). If everything was done correctly, you are no longer vulnerable to them; they will start changing their attitude toward you sharply for the better; if it was the evil eye, they will start behaving toward you in a special way; if they wished you dead, they will vanish from your life, stop talking to you themselves, move away.

Your enemy will surely feel that their aim was not achieved — they will feel all the negativity returning to them.

Give nothing to anyone for three days after the porcha is lifted. The enemy will most likely come to you and ask for something — salt, a pen or a paper napkin, anything; they need to get any object from you. If you grant their wish, the offender will receive your cleansed energy and send the negativity back to you. They may ask you for anything. Refuse absolutely everyone, in everything, during these three days!

If you hold out, the porcha will not return to you, and the offender will look sick and weakened, for all the evil has turned back upon them. By these signs you will know who laid the porcha on you, even if other ways failed. After the porcha is lifted you need fear no one — the specialist has set your protection; after three days you may talk to this person. But you should not break off contact — especially with a relative, however bad they may seem to you.
