When anxiety appears in our lives, and misfortunes follow in succession, you can’t help but wonder whether all this is the machinations of evil spirits. Our ancestors knew how to build protection from evil forces, so they surrounded themselves with amulets and read conspiracies. All this has not lost its relevance today.
Entities live in any house near us. Most of them are completely harmless. But it happens that another, very insidious force wanders into the house from the street or from the cemetery. You can immediately feel it because it somehow begins to manifest itself.
If overnight your happy life ceased to be so, and you entered a streak of failure with constant quarrels, insults and reproaches, then an evil spirit has settled in your house. Its presence can be felt by indoor plants withering for no reason and strange noises (laughter, stomping, rustling) that are heard exclusively at night. There can be more than one spirit living in a house, but several at once. They can ruin your life completely. To avoid this, you must force them to leave the house.
It is not necessary to turn to someone for a talisman, because many of them are near us. It is very important to know what objects can serve as a talisman and how to use them to protect against evil spirits.
Ring
The most universal talisman for protection against failure. It will build all-round protection and will not allow evil spirits to approach you. Any properly charged ring can be a talisman. Such rings are usually inherited from mother to daughter, from father to son.
However, not all rings have positive energy. In order to attract positive emotions, you need to take a new ring and cast a spell. Once you put the ring on your finger, it is better not to take it off so that positive energy constantly circulates around you. Even an ordinary ring can be turned into an amulet if you use the following hex:
“Charge the ring with unprecedented, miraculous, natural power, serve as a source of light power for me.”
After reading the hex, you need to put the ring in a glass of water and sprinkle with a pinch of salt.
Customs and traditions of February 18
People considered Saint Agafia the patroness of livestock, who helped take care of the main village nurses - cows. Unlike other animals, cows and horses, the main helpers of village residents, were given individual, often affectionate names. Many sayings, proverbs and fairy tales are dedicated to the cow.
Before February 18, some owners may have run out of hay supplies. There was nothing to feed the cows, so the name Famine appeared, which peasants sometimes used to refer to this day.
In summer and autumn, when it was warm and there was enough food, the cows did not need special protection. But at the end of winter, when hay and straw had to be saved, the question of helping emaciated and weakened animals arose quite urgently. Often during this period, entire peasant herds died from exhaustion and various diseases. Superstitious ancestors associated such a death with the appearance in the villages of a harmful creature - cow death, which brings death to the entire peasant herd.
Cow death appears in the form of a black cat, a dog, a cow skeleton, or an evil, ugly old woman whose hands hold a rake. This creature was considered especially dangerous on this day. “Stunted and starved cow death” runs through the villages on February 18 and kills livestock.
To protect themselves from such a scourge, women performed the plowing ritual, during which men were forbidden to leave their homes. Cattle were locked in a stable, and dogs, even the most obedient ones, were kept on a leash.
To prevent cow death from entering the yard, peasants took various measures:
- they left old bast shoes soaked in tar in the barn, believing that their smell would make the evil creature run away without looking back;
- thistles were laid out at the gates, at the thresholds, around the chimneys;
- they blessed bread studded with salt in churches, which they then fed to livestock;
- they fumigated houses and barns with thistles;
- They gave holy water to the cattle.
In case of death of livestock or in order to prevent it, on the day of Agafya, as well as on Vlasyev’s day (February 24), a ritual of plowing the village was carried out. All the women with their hair down and wearing only shirts gathered secretly at night. They picked up a scythe, a club, a frying pan. One of the widows was harnessed to a plow and a collar was put on her without a harness. Then they made a procession around the village. The earth was blown up so that the layers flew away from the village. They took a rooster, a cat and a dog with them. During the procession, the participants shouted: “Cow death, do not destroy our cattle. We will bury you in the ground with a cat, a dog and a kochet.” At the end of the round, the animals were buried outside the village. People believed that after this ritual, cow death would not penetrate the territory delineated by a magic circle with the help of a plow.
Conspiracies from evil spirits
The right word will help get rid of evil spirits. The word has such power that legends are made about it. With a word you can raise a terminally ill person and kill a completely healthy person. Therefore, it can be safely used to combat the destructive energy of the other world. Some prefer to use protective prayers, but in critical situations, esotericists advise resorting to conspiracies. They help for a long time. After reading the plot, you need to thank the Lord for his protection and ask for protection.
"Demon Possessed"
U
The first Russian historical and manuscript sources, and later archival documents, contain references to mentally ill people. One of the early literary monuments that appeared in the 13th century, the “Kievo-Pechersk Patericon,” speaks of a monk who “was tormented by the action of the devil...” Several cases of recovery from “demonic obsession” are described on the pages of another handwritten monument of Kievan Rus - “ Life of Theodosius of Pechersk" (XI century).
It is not unreasonable to assume that mental illness in those days, especially among women and children, could not but be negatively affected by numerous wars, descriptions of which abounded in chronicles, as well as natural disasters. During the 16th–17th centuries alone, according to chroniclers, Rus' experienced 26 “great storms,” 15 earthquakes and 37 large fires. Chronicles also report 112 years of famine. Famine and the resulting mortality also contributed to the emergence of mental illness. During the famine of 1231, 45,000 people died in Novgorod alone, and the total number of deaths in Rus' has not been established - “it is unknown how many Christ-loving people were buried.”
In the old medical books that have come down to us, there are various names for mental disorders: “confusion of mind”, “crazy from the mind”, “was crazy”, “was enraged”, “sick from a demon”, “possessed by a demon”. When describing some of them, even attempts were made to identify the causes of these disorders. Thus, ancient Russian healers (“lechtsy”) assumed that in some cases the sufferer was possessed by a demon, in others the cause of the disease was seen in “devilish obsession,” and in others its source was determined by the influence of the “evil eye.”
Even in the pre-Christian period, people engaged in healing began to appear in Rus', known as “sorcerers”, “sorcerers”, “magi” and “sorcerers”. Herbs, flowers and roots served as medicinal agents, along with amulets, “breaths”, incantations and divination. Such “healers” were also the first healers of mental illness.
After the adoption of Christianity, charity for the mentally ill began to be carried out primarily by the Russian Orthodox Church. One of the articles of the “Charter of Grand Duke Vladimir,” which appeared in the 12th century, states: “And all the people of the collective church were betrayed by the metropolitan and the bishop: ... a widow, a cripple, a sick man, a pardoner, a stifled man ... a lame man, a blind man.” In pursuance of the Charter, in the middle of the 11th century, a hospital was created at the first Russian monastery - the Kiev Pechersk Lavra, the founder of which was Saint Theodosius. It was he who “built a courtyard near the monastery... and here he ordered the poor and the blind, the lame, and the sick to be present; he ordered everything they needed to be brought from the monastery; he gave them a tenth of all the property of the monastery.” From that time almost until the 80s of the 18th century, Orthodox monasteries in Rus' provided care for the mentally ill.
The sick were sent to monasteries for spiritual treatment and admonition. This method of caring for the mentally ill was subsequently legalized by government acts. The first such act dates back to 1551, when during the reign of Ivan the Terrible at the Church Council, when drawing up a new code of law, called “Stoglavy”, an article was drawn up on the need to care for the poor and sick, including those “who are possessed by a demon and deprived of mind." State assistance consisted of placement in monasteries, “so as not to be a hindrance and a scarecrow for the healthy,” but also to give them the opportunity to receive admonition or “bringing them to the truth.” An interesting document comes from the times of Mikhail Fedorovich, who “ordered to send Mikita Uvarov to the Kirillov Monastery under the leadership so that Mikita Uvarov had gone crazy in his mind.” The decree also contains instructions on how to support him: firstly, “Mikita Uvarov was sent with an escort, with the boyar’s son Ondron Isupov, and that boyar’s son Mikita Uvarov was ordered to lead him to chains. So, the son of the boyar Ondron Isupov brought Mikita Uvarov to the Kirillov Monastery so that they could take Mikita Uvarov from him, and they ordered him to be kept under strong leadership, and they ordered him to be at church singing and at the cell rule all day long, in order to lead him to the truth, and They ordered him to be fed in the trapeze with the brethren; And if Mikita Uvarov starts playing fools in the monastery, they ordered me to keep him chained in the bakery so that Mikita Uvarov would not leave the monastery.”
During the reign of Fyodor Alekseevich - the immediate predecessor of Peter the Great's era - a special law was issued (1677), according to which the mentally ill did not have the right to manage their property, along with the deaf, blind and dumb, as well as drunkards and “stupid”. The legislation of that time classified “stupid” people as “sick”, i.e. sick. The concept of mental illness, as something independent of supernatural forces, already existed in Russia throughout the 17th century.
People who practiced healing in Russia in the pre-Petrine period often encountered alcoholic psychoses. This, in particular, is evidenced by the description of the condition of Afanasy, a resident of the village of Komaritsa on the Dvina, who “had a severe illness, an evil demon attacked him from immeasurable drinking... because his family was already in despair and he was in that illness, the adina was not shut up in the temples " In Rus', people have long been familiar with such alcoholic drinks as honey, mash, and intoxicating kvass. In the 16th century, bread wine and vodka were added to them. The abuse of alcoholic beverages spread in the 17th century, which was to a certain extent facilitated by the instability of the central government in the first decades of this century and the opening in the second half, by decree of Fyodor Ioannovich (1557–1598), of a whole network of state-owned drinking yards and taverns.
The topic of combating the spread of drunkenness in Rus' was reflected in the first law of the ancient Russian state - “Russian Truth”, where, for example, merchants who “drank their minds on drink” were condemned. In his “Instructions”, which appeared in 1117, Vladimir Monomakh urged to beware of drunkenness - “that’s why Ivan the Terrible imposed a large duty on the brewing of beer and honey.”
At the same time, honey, and later wine, were used by our ancestors for therapeutic purposes. Anise, mint, wormwood and other medicinal vodkas, which included numerous ingredients, were popular, including in the treatment of fevers with a delirious component, among the “healers” of Moscow in the 17th century. The special “apoplectic vodka” used, according to its name, was composed of cinnamon, cloves, ginger, citrus seed, nutmeg, butter beans, peony root, juniper berries and other components. At the same time, for the preparation of medicinal vodkas, a kind of laboratory was created at the first administrative medical institution in Russia - the Apothecary Order - with the position of “alcohol mixer”.
At that time, they tried to use various healing compounds to treat alcoholism. So, in one of the medical manuscripts it was stated: “Which person drinks a lot. Take aspen and spruce barks, cut them finely from the lip and mix them with wine and give them to drink, and then he won’t start drinking at all.” In another similar document, medicinal plants now known in folk medicine were recommended for the treatment of alcoholism: “A letter on a skinny heart, used against drunkenness that day, protects and preserves. He drinks fresh wormwood juice with honey and warm water to prevent drunkenness.” It should be noted that the roots of the plant, called the capital letter, are often used in modern folk medicine as an emetic. To reduce the manifestations of psychotic reactions, it was recommended to put rue juice in the ears, which, according to modern information, is a combination of essential oils, flavonoids, aromatic compounds, coumarins, carotenoids and other substances, which together have restorative and, most importantly, sedative properties. In the treatment of mental disorders, as it was possible to establish, it was recommended to use various mixtures of medicinal substances, which, for example, included pepper, citvar seed and cumin, which were recommended to be mixed with honey, boiled, then “eat for three days on a skinny heart, one spoonful per day and Velmi will be healthy.” Another medicinal mixture recommended for mental illness consisted of ginger, “oil beans from which oil is made,” grated peppercorns, nut shells and caraway seeds. First, everything had to be crushed, mixed and boiled, and then “drink to the skinny heart.” As you can see, the composition of these mixtures included cumin as an obligatory component, which, as we know today, contains essential oils, flavonoids, resins and wax. The “soothing tea” also included cumin. The composition of rue juice, used in the Middle Ages to treat mental disorders, as well as the composition of cumin, which is a component of “soothing tea,” included flavonoids, which are a yellow pigment with a hypotensive and antispasmodic effect.
It is curious that during the reign of Peter I an attempt was made to change the situation of the mentally ill. In 1723, Peter the Great forbade sending “extravagant” to monasteries and entrusted the Chief Magistrate with the responsibility of setting up hospitals. However, in the absence of such, in the subsequent decades after Peter, the mentally ill were still sent to monasteries. This custom was even officially sanctioned in 1727: the Synod was charged with the obligation not to create any obstacles to the admission of the mentally ill into monasteries and not to refer to Peter’s decree.
Almost half a century later, in 1762, in response to the Senate’s proposal to send the mentally ill princes of Kozlovsky to a monastery, Tsar Peter III put forward the following resolution: “The insane should not be sent to monasteries, but a special house should be built for that purpose, as is usually the case with dollar houses established in foreign countries, - and however, so be it.”
No one in Russia knew what foreign “debt houses” were. The Senate asked the Academy of Sciences about this, but even there, in the Academic Collegium, there was no academician willing to explain what it was. Only the historiographer Müller responded to the Senate’s request, but did not give a description of the European dollar houses at all, but presented his own project, which turned out to be far from bad. So F. Müller rightfully holds the title of “if not the first Russian psychiatrist, then at least a pioneer in the field of organizing care for the mentally ill.”
Müller wrote: “There is a difference in the degree of madness among the insane: epileptics, lunatics, melancholics, madmen. Each of these illnesses is also different in degree, but all of them are a burden to society, unless they are kept in special houses, where efforts would be made to feed and use them.”
How did Muller see such a “special house”? A stone structure with two or three floors: the lower floor houses the rabid, the second – melancholics and sleepwalkers, the third – epileptics. The cells of the rabid should have windows that could not be reached, and with bars; no furniture, bed on the floor; “Some are chained to the wall.” To bring the sick to their senses, Müller recommends measures that, even 60 years later, were in use throughout Europe: “The overseer punishes them (the sick) just like little children, and sometimes just punishing the vine is enough,”
It is interesting that in contrast not only to monastic medicine, with its reprimands and sprinklings, but also in contrast to the “exhortations” from the clergy that survived much later in Germany and England, Müller demands that “the doctor use all means to cure them, and Before they come to their senses, they have nothing to do with the priests.”
In 1765, during the reign of Catherine II, it was decided to establish two dollar houses - one in Novgorod, in the Zelenetsky monastery, the other in Moscow, in Andreevsky.
A spell to help drive out evil spirits
“Get away, Devil, from my body and home, get out of my corners, doors and hearth. There is no place for you here, no honor. My home is for the cross of the Lord, for the Mother of God, the Most Pure Mother of God, for all the saints of the Orthodox Church. Come out, cursed Herod, from my body, from my house, from my soul. Do not involve me in your treacherous deeds, do not come near my house, leave my body. Your place is in the underworld. I like the Divine power and bright angels. And there is nothing stronger than my word! Amen! Amen! Amen!"
Conspiracy from demonic and devilish power
The spell is cast on wax from a melted candle:
“I feel God’s holy protection, consecrated by the cross on each side. I wear the cross because I am a servant of God. There is a cross both in front and behind me. He will cast out the devil that is tormenting me. The demons will go away, because next to me is always the heavenly power of the Lord and his son Jesus, the power of the Mother of the Blessed Virgin Mary, the spirits and holy angels. Demons and the devil belong in utter hell, in their true home. Be gone the devil, who plots against me, forever and ever. Amen."

When visiting the monastery, you can see a large number of people possessed by demons. I will tell you later how to get rid of such a scourge. But first, I will explain how you can protect a person’s body and soul from the possession of demons. Modern masters gradually began to forget about this ancient conspiracy, devoting their attention to other problems, but in vain. Of course, getting your loved one back is also important. In general, everything that worries a person and prevents him from living peacefully is important. But you never know what might happen to whom, so it’s better to immediately put up a talisman against the invasion of a person by evil forces than to cast out a demon later. Just as it is better to get vaccinated than to have to treat the disease for a long time and painfully. So, first they read the “Our Father”, and then the charm-amulet. Our Father Our Father, Who art in Heaven! Hallowed be Thy name, Thy kingdom come, Thy will be done, as it is in Heaven and on earth. Give us this day our daily bread; and forgive us our debts, just as we forgive our debtors; and do not lead us into temptation, but deliver us from the evil one. Conspiracy Lord God, Bless, Christ. How You preserve and protect the holy icons, How You protect them from all illness, Who will pray to You, Who will worship You. I ask, I beg, I fall on my face before You, Save and preserve, and protect me with the stronghold of the Lord from all demons and semi-demons, from their invasion and reproduction. Whether I eat or sleep, In the house or on the road, protect and protect me from the demon. I close my amulet on all holy keys, on all strong locks, on a holy cup with holy water, the Lord is with me. In the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit. Amen. If a person, for one reason or another, cannot read this amulet plot for himself (for example, if he is a small child), then you can read the plot for him, simply by saying the name of this person. The words of the conspiracy are pronounced out loud, but when they reach the key words (they begin with the word “I close”), they read to themselves so that no one will turn your work against you and will not be able to harm you. The next conspiracy that I want to teach you is a conspiracy to exorcise demons. They read it on Friday after sunset. The patient is seated in the middle of the room. If he gets violent and doesn’t sit quietly, try to persuade him or, at the very least, keep him in place. It is necessary that he sits, and does not stand or walk, then his Guardian Angel will be with him and with you all the time. They read the plot loudly, in a well-trained voice, holding a crucifix in front of them. After reading the plot, sprinkle the patient with holy water, and then let him take three sips of this water. Please note: if after the ceremony a person sweats or begins to hiccup, then the demon remains in him, and nothing worked for you. In this case, read the plot seven times. However, this may not be enough. In my practice, there have been cases when I had to read a conspiracy to exorcise a demon forty times. Here are his words: In the name of Jesus Christ. Get rid of the evil demon from the servant of God (name). Amen. The Holy Apostolic Church stands on salt water. In the middle of the church there is a table. This is not a table, but the Holy See. There is God's candle there. Whoever lights that candle will cause chaos. Just as a blind man does not see the light, so the demon will not enter the servant of God (name). Come out of all demonic things into the holy word. Mother of God, help, drive out the demon from the servant of God (name). In the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit. Amen.
Conspiracy from evil spirits and evil spirits
On my side stand the Holy Spirit, the son of God Jesus, and his mother the Virgin Mary. I ask my Guardian Angel to save my sinful soul and keep my heart unselfish. Give me strength, strengthen my spirit. Help us drive away the filthy enemies, all kinds of evil spirits, and the insatiable Devil. I will render the cross to God, I will atone for my sins. The Lord Himself will receive me in the Promised Heaven. I don’t need the evil one, let him go away from me. Amen!
Only true faith will help rid your home and body of evil spirits that are looking for the right moment to ruin your life. You can’t give up and stop fighting. Strong spells and amulets will help protect you from the machinations of evil spirits. And we can only wish you good luck on this difficult path.
