It Takes a Witch to Break a Generational Curse

This post was inspired by a meme I found saying exactly the title of this post. So, wanting to at least nod to other people's opinions (only if they're right, of course) I leapt on the internet to see what other people had to say about this subject, and all I can say is, I'm shocked. Shocked.

These Christians steal virtually everything and this area, the one where you're virtually guaranteed to need a witch, is no exception. And I wouldn't even mind them stealing so much if what they stole wasn't contradictory to their own religion.

According to The Gospel Coalition, a “generational curse describes the cumulative effect on a person of things that their ancestors did, believed, or practiced in the past, and a consequence of an ancestor’s actions, beliefs, and sins being passed down.” Source

At the risk of sounding like Jeff Tiedrich (actually, fuck it, I might start a Tiedrich tradition of witchcraft right here), holy fucking shit, that's some industrial strength batshit crazy right there. From a Christian point of view. Because I don't know who this Gospel Coalition are but they sure as hell haven't read the gospel, because in Christianity that thing of sins being passed down through generations has gone, baby. But it turns out there's a whole Christian industry of dealing with this thing they don't believe in. Holy shit.

It's not even like we believe in that shit either, because we don't believe in sin. You heard that right, the Hound was conceived without sin. I do however carry my own actions from previous lives but not other family members' unless I am them reincarnated.

There are two causes of generational curses. One is the more spiritual one that you would expect although is virtually never because of someone actually putting a curse on your family. It is more to do with the way the family as a whole acts and relates to every reality surrounding them. For example (and I'm choosing a fairly dramatic example because it's a clear one) the children of Fred and Rose West will have to live with the ongoing effects of their childhood. I mentioned relating and it is truly in all sorts of relationships that this kind of curse comes back. If you have your own children, for example, you will forever be wondering if you are looking after them well enough, if you could have done more about your siblings, and so on. Conversely you may end up so frozen you can't think about it at all. And how cursed is that? It's generational because previous generations of your family have caused this.

The other way, which is far more common, is that you won't have the resources to deal with life without repeating the same actions again. This is the lesser one because (to stay with the serial killer family example) once you know there's a problem you can get books about parenting and do things differently. Another example would be that if you've been physically neglected you can make a point of feeding your own children better. This way is less inside you than the other way, and ironically once you start dealing with this way you are well on the way to dealing with the first aspect of the generational curse.

The inner curse is the reason it needs a witch. Did I mention that anyone can do witchcraft and that it's usually that sort of adversity that makes someone a witch? It's magical because it means reframing your whole existence, acknowledging and dealing with thought forms that can literally go back generations, and creating a new life. It's also bloody scary work, because it's almost guaranteed to leave you with family members and others furious at you. I speak from experience!

It also needs a witch rather than a Christian because with no disrespect, praying won't do this one. It needs action. It may also conceivably need a few prison sentences and safeguarding but hey, that's the territory and I think the most difficult thing would be that people don't get it. The link referring to the Gospel Coalition above makes some absolutely bizarre comments about childhood, and let's face it the actor Dominic West was attacked in the street after playing Fred West in a documentary. Stupidity is not curable and is not a curse. And it's not even like they had a sensible reason for thinking he was actually Fred West because the guy died right here in Her Majesty's Prison Birmingham thirty years ago. 

You'll notice that I'm not rushing to write a how to book, for reasons of individuality of cases. That's the other reason it takes a witch, is it needs a bitch who's dealt with a few fuccbois. And fuccbois will clearly be abundant.
