In Greek Mythology how do you break a curse?

Answer 1

A Pagan Perspective

I am assuming here it is not you that cursed someone else and are now asking how to remove that curse.

True curses are fairly uncommon. I would first ask what makes you think you have been cursed.

If you are experiencing a "run of bad luck" or a series of "misfortunes", you may want to look to your own life before blaming a mysterious "someone" of ill-wishing you. Often our own negative thoughts, wishes, speech and actions have a way of "coming home to roost".

If someone has told you they are placing a curse on you, I'd look closely at the practitioner. Many young people in an attempt to claim more power than they have or to intimidate those around them, make claims they can not carry through. An experienced ethical practitioner does not ill-wish others, most understand that what they send out comes back to them and therefore do not curse others.

The only ethical practitioners that do on occasion use curses are Voudon/ Santarina. If you have run afoul of one or someone has hired one to curse you then your curse is in fact real.

If you have in fact been cursed, your own personal spiritual path is your best defence. Your belief is what gives "magic" power, if you do not believe in the curse or believe your own deity(ies) can protect you from the harm of others and you will be fine.

As a last resort... a bath in salted water and asking the full moon to protect you with it's light should take care of things.

A Christian Perspective

Prayer. God is the highest power available to mankind, and if you sincerely pray to Him and ask Him to remove the curse, He will. Then thank Him for lifting the curse and protecting you from evil.
