I'm mexican and grew up hearing about it all the time. I'm not on good terms with my sister as some of you might remember and I just get scared that my mom sides with her too much... my mom is weird... I don't know if she practices witchcraft perse but she does stuff like ask pendulums questions and goes to fortune tellers. She just scares me sometimes.

I'm not reigious and don't exactly believe in heaven, hell, god or satan but have always feared people using magic, I guess, to hurt me. I guess maybe because its something I wouldn't be able to protect myself from.


So my question is, do you believe in witchcraft? How does it make you feel?

    I don't believe in anything like that all though I have owned a (dont know how to spell this but this is how you say it) weegee board since I was 11 but only asked for that because I just wanted to be able to say I had one lol I'm a have to see it to believe it type of person

    I believe in it & I respect it...I'm Cuban/Puerto rican and live in Miami! So out here we have Millionsssss of people who do 'brujeria'...people are always doing 'trabajos' on other people...its crazi & a but scary...I believe in it cause I know it works...I've seen it with my own eyes!! Its not a game!!!

    @mums_the_word Lol I always forget how its spelled too. I guess I'm just paranoid... I mean as a little girl my mom would aways say to keep the covers on or the witch woud come and drag me by my feet... I still have to have my feet covered to sleep lol.

    But I don't know I guess I freaked out when I watched the last episode of game of thrones since the witch lady put a curse on one of the characters unborn child. :-( stuff like tht freaks me out.

    @librababii what have you seen???
  • mgrosemgrose
    Anything is possible I guess........would def be awesome if it were real tho
  • mrs_shumrs_shu
    If I'm correct, if anyone were to do/put something on you it comes back 3x on them...
  • artistmammaartistmamma
    @momtobe19 & @mums_the_word: The word you're looking for is Ouija; aka Spirit or Talking Board, pronounced like "O-we-ja."

    And @mrs_shu is correct, dark or black magick harms the spell caster & comes back to visit them threefold. White magick conversely blesses the caster threefold. I cannot imagine how any human being could even want to think of using black magick on children or the unborn, & I hope I never meet someone who would.

    Yes I believe in it. I'm a witch, though I don't cast spells often and not lightly. I follow the 3 law and the do as ye will as long as it harms none. Its not something to fear but to respect and understand.
    I wish I could explain more but I'm on my phone and hate using touch screen
  • librababiilibrababii
    I think what ur talking about (witchcraft) is different from what I'm talking about...brujeria is when they sacrifice certain animals to do their 'trabajos' (jobs)...I actually went to a 'brujero' once to see what can be done about getting my cousin out if jail early...4.5 weeks later, he was free!!! A lot of other things...Miami is really into that...especially the Spanish sections of Miami, are really serious with that...people use brujeros for any little thing out here...there's 'botanicas' in every other street...botanicas are the shops where u get the stuff u need to do whatever it is ur gonna do...its crazi over here...

    My grandmother rosa was mexican and believed in all kinds of crazy stuff. Whenever a baby is born u see real mexican women chanting a prayer of protection over the babies. They believe it'll stop bad spells being casted on the babies.

    Yes, I believe in it, and do practice it. I also believe in threefold and karma alike. I don't cast any negative spells, and ESPECIALLY do not approve of using magic on children.
  • mommyto1soontob2mommyto1soontob2
    i believe in it and have done some but in all good tho. its touchy cause when u mess up karma and the natural balance of things u can get hurt.
  • mommyto1soontob2mommyto1soontob2
    @EiralynnesMommy i agree as for using on children i have used protection for my child and others but i wont make them under a controlled spell for them to not be in controll ya know lol

    Witchcraft is definantly real. Before I became a Christ follower I practiced witchcraft. At that time I believed in the law of threes (that all spells would come back on you threefold). I believed that there was "white" and "black" magic. However before I became a christian I had a dream that I would be killed if I continued to practice witchcraft. It scared me so I became agnostic. Looking back on that time even the spells I did for good had bad results in my life. The end result of every spell I ever did hurt myself and sometimes others. Since being a christ follower and letting Him lead my life the results of prayer and listening to God have brought good things for myself and others in contrast with my experience with witchcraft.

    Yes I believe in it im puerto rican n in pr u see alot of ppl going to siticas y santeros plus doing special things to hurt others or to protect dem selves its just scary to even think about it for me! My grandma had a santuario with all these saints n candles it scared me as a child smh.
  • casnlesliecasnleslie
    I also believe and practice. Im not evil, I don't fly on my broom, and I don't sacrifice animals, etc. TV makes us out to be these hurtful creatures. I do spells, but not for selfish or hurtful purpose. I would never cast a spell on an unborn child! Anyone who would is not the brightest crayon in the box. Karma is very real, trust me. Don't be scared. "And harm none" is what most who practice believe. Sorry if this makes no sense, I had to bite my thumbs a lot... lol.

    I belive in it. Im half Hispanic and I was told to wear a safety pin in my clothes or put a pair of scissors under the bed to ward off evil. Never done it so idk if it works
  • momtobe19momtobe19
    Wow, thanks ladies for your input. I don't know what to do personally as I don't really want to believe that anyone is trying to harm me or can for that matter, but I just feel really insecure about it all. My eldest brother has been the only other one of my siblings (we're 5) that has been able to have children and he wants nothing to do with my mom so she never got to know his children. I'm just scared that if I have a fall out with my mother, as I've never agreed with her and how she is that she might try to harm me or my family. She's very vengeful. I did fall out with my sister yesterday and she's never practiced any witchcraft but she often goes to (crappy) fortune tellers and I'm just scared that if she put her mind to it she could find a way to learn how to hurt me like that.

    She's not very smart so I doubt she'd practice or pay attention to the threefold law. I don't know I'm just scared. I don't know if it's in my head but after our argument I felt really sick. It might have just been all the stress but like I said I don't want my child to be put in the middle of it. She's very jealous and has been trying to get pregnant and she treats me like shit all the time. So I wouldn't doubt for a second that if she had the means she would try to hurt me and my child, since she can't have one, I can't either kind of mentality.
  • casnlesliecasnleslie
    There are ways to protect yourself. It sounds like the issue is more that you feel helpless against negative magic. I understand the unknown is scary. "Fortune tellers" are typically not legitimate, and a lot of them are not witches either. So. Don't worry about them. Especially since she tends to see crappy ones anyway. Good luck hun! If you need anything just let me know.

    I believe there's a God and that Jesus died for my sins. I'm very religious, but being raised in the Haitian community, and by living in south Florida, I must say that I believe in vondou. (nope its not "voodoo" I spelled it right, vondou is the Haitian equilevant of voodoo but more.....its a way of life nd a religion the same way Christianity is a way of life and a religion). I've seen a lot of sh!t, trust me, everything is true. Bt not all ppl who practice vondou is all typical crazy bloody Haitian kind. Some lead a simple life with a few differences and practices, and some well......anyways I have manbeaus and bokos in my family (top priests) and the crap scares me. Ive been to their ceremonies when I was younger, bt as I got older I stopped associating with that as my faith in God grew stronger. I no longer watched the ceremonies nd even stopped visiting some relatives homes. The some mentioned before me I know my faith in God will block all "evils" and if a person were to try anything it wouldn't work. I'm a child of God!

    @Roseisamommynow my husband is from West Africa and has some aunties who have cursed his family. Especially his mother and they've tried to curse him and his sister. We all lived in his sisters condo before I had my daughter. His mother, sister, myself and him are Christ followers but sometimes they don't rely on Jesus to cancel the curses against them. Or his aunties will curse the non believers in the family to hurt the believers. Very sad. One night while we lived with his sister I was awakened by a demon. It jumped on me in my sleep and I could tell that it had come to tear my family apart by getting my.husband. I told it it had to leave in jesus name and it laughed at me. I told it in the name of christ you have to go and it laughed at me again. Terrified I prayed and asked God to help and protect me. The holy spirit gave me a verse to say (that I didn't know and don't remember.) I quoted the verse in jesus name and the demon shreaked and left. The next day I told my husband what had happened and he said that is part of the reason he doesn't associate with his dads side of the family. Out of sight out of mind. And his sister talks about demons coming for her in her sleep as well. I am so thankful that I have a relationship with Christ and that I can rely on Him to save me. I don't have to do things from my own strength or power I just have to trust him and he does the hard work in spiritual areas.
