The essence of the prayer “Seven Crosses”
The prayer contains two lists of 7 items each. In the first, the believer turns to heavenly and natural protectors, lists them and puts a cross on each one. The second part also contains a numerical list of the seven main troubles and misfortunes from which an Orthodox Christian and his family should be protected.
The prayer text-amulet “Seven Crosses” is built in the form of a conspiracy for protection from evil forces. It is very ancient, containing elements of ancient pagan texts, since they are its basis.
When reading the prayer seven times, the protective forces draw out all the negativity from the family and home, removes black thoughts, temptations, the evil eye and damage sent by the devil and his servants. The soul and aura around the Christian, his family members, is cleansed. The negativity sent to the house goes away. You can also read prayers against damage.
The prayer to the seven crosses was not chosen by chance. In Orthodoxy, it is believed that 7 brings good luck and can protect against evil forces. Therefore, the reading of the sacred words is carried out at 7 crosses, in front of 7 burning candles, and a prayer text is read listing the seven main troubles from which it is necessary to protect. To confirm this, you should pay attention to the icon of the Mother of God “Seven Arrows”; that is how many arrows she holds, connecting their ends.
While reading the prayer, the believer is protected from the 7 deadly sins that Jesus took upon himself and suffered for all humanity.
