My life is cursed enough. I don't need anymore.
Just kidding.
I have a question too. How do you send a curse in the mail? I thought curses were like...words.
I'm not talking about cussing.

haha, well that would definitely be new. Someone paying me to curse themselves. :b
A lot of people tend to believe that if they do the curse themselves, there will be some sort of consequence (whether it be karma [which is an appropriated term but let's not go there], or the three fold law [often followed by NeoWiccans, which I am not]). So in my shop, I offer my services of casting the curse for you, so your energy is essentially "untouched".
A curse can come in many different ways. Some can just use an incantation, or even sing a song to cast it. Not all tricks or spells work with words, though. For instance, the words I use are often simply thought in my head, not said aloud. Anyway, most tend to have juju by the end of it - an item that "holds" the curse as it manifests. Like I said earlier, it can come as a mojo bag, a jar, even the back of a picture frame. Some can get really clever in hiding these things in your own home.

Don't be an arse, she can advertise her store if she wants to.

Wow you are actually selling curses? Really?
I really don't think the rule of three fold return is going to like that. I: Let alone the fact you're using your arts to scam money out of people. People who take their beliefs in stuff like this seriously don't do that.
FYI to anyone who even considers this: It does not matter if someone else does the cursing for you. That just means that not only YOU are going to get bit three fold in the end, but it's going to be spread to the person you paid to do the cursing for you. Though considering she's willing to sell curses in the first place she's probably got a tsunami of bad bite-back sailing at her right this minute.
OP, don't lie to people and tell them that just because you're the one doing the casting that they're going to get off scott free. They're still the ones to want a curse in the first place. The God and Goddess aren't just going to sit back and say "Oh, well they didn't actually do the curse! So they didn't do anything wrong!" They still wished for it. That negative energy doesn't go poof just because you were the one to weave your magic into a curse.
That's like saying a person who hired someone to hurt another person isn't wrong or eligible for being punished in the eyes of the law.

Just sayin'. I wouldn't exactly call it lying. She doesn't believe in the three-fold law, therefore, it's fine for her.
To be honest, I wasn't expecting someone else who believed in this to share their beliefs on it. This thread has become quite interesting

I'm a witch. I take curses seriously and it ticks me off when I see people selling parts of their craft like this. Doesn't matter what brand of it it is. I just want to make sure people realize that just because SHE doesn't believe in Karma or the law of three fold return that they aren't going to get bit in the end. A Christain wouldn't hire and Atheist to commit murder and then expect God to tell them they're A-okay to go into heaven even though they were the ones who initiated that crime.
Also I really don't think not believing in the three fold law is going to prevent any form of karma from coming back on her. My stepfather has cheated on my mother and they're now getting a divorce. He's been dogging her and treating her like crap. He doesn't believe in the three fold law OR Karma, but he's been having some pretty crappy goings on recently, from what I've heard.

Well, I certainly didn't expect this.
Yeah, I see what you're saying, but isn't there a way to cleanse your energy? Just through a cursory glance at a few things on etsy, there seem to be quite a few ways to cleanse yourself of negative energy.
On a side note, while I don't believe in any of this, I'm still curious about it. It's quite fascinating, and some of the stuff people making looks really nice.

I personally do not believe in the ability to cleanse yourself of malicious acts with something so simpe. I also wouldn't go to etsy for stuff like that. You have to remember that those people are selling something for money. It's like the magic books directed to teens teens telling them they'll get love or be able to punish people they don't like. Or the books that bash Christianity and make pagan beliefs and magic to be some superior path in comparison.
The gods, goddesses, and the spirits are not ignorant. You can't just wave a wand, mix a potion, or set your crystals out and expect to wipe your slate clean. That is, of course, unless you sincerely prove to them that you are remorseful and admit what you did was wrong. And even then you should probably expect that you should do some good work to help that out. I can't honestly see the majority of people who ill-wish on someone being genuinely remorseful when they get that three fold kick in the pants.

What's the three-fold law?
Officer Berri
Cousin Redd's Nightmare
The belief that any action you take, good or bad, will return on you with three times the force. Do good? Three times the good is yours. Do bad? Three times what you did comes back to bite you. It's like Karma. Only it reflects harder.

In all honesty I don't think this should be here.
This is an Animal Crossing forum. This is an advertisement. I don't think the mods would appreciate it if I came in here and advertised KFC if I owned one.

i really wish that was true. i really do.
like i think there's boomerang stuff, of reaping what you sow when you treat people poopily, no-one will want hang with you. Like how my dad is miserable because none of his children will visit him, but i think it'd be awesome if there was like cosmic force that punches mean people in the butt.
YUPP pretty much this ^^
Yes, really. Take your curse shaming elsewhere. Just because I don't believe in Heaven or Hell doesn't mean you can come here telling me my soul is going to burn because I'm not following YOUR religion's rules and because I don't believe it. Do you see the resemblance here?
I don't believe in the Three Fold Law, I don't believe in Karma (which, like I said is highly appropriative, you should probably stop using it), and I don't have a God or Goddess AND I don't work with spirits. I follow a god, and in His tradition, curses are fine as long as it's called for. In my description, I've mentioned that if the client is looking at my store in the first place, then they are in a place where they feel they would be justified in hiring my services.
So no, I'm not lying just because my beliefs are not the same as yours and there are PLENTY of other stores on etsy who are selling powders, tricks and customs. I don't personally view it as a scam, and I definitely know the ones that own their shops don't think it is.
You're NeoWiccan fluff. Coming into someone's thread (asking about what kind of wares - which isn't even JUST about curses, herpderp) curse shaming is incredibly rude and unbelievable.
You're inter-changing the Threefold Law and Karma. They are different things.
[quote="Wiki]The Rule of Three (also Three-fold Law or Law of Return) is a religious tenet held by some Wiccans/Pagans. It states that whatever energy a person puts out into the world, be it positive or negative, will be returned to that person three times. Some subscribe to a variant of this law in which return is not necessarily threefold.
The Rule of Three is sometimes described as karma by Wiccans, however this is not strictly accurate. Both concepts describe the process of cause and effect and often encourage the individual to act in a good way. However the concept of karma, according to the scriptures of Buddhism, Hinduism and other eastern belief systems, does not operate on a system of three-fold return. Furthermore, such belief systems do not contain the same concepts of 'good' and 'evil' that Wicca does.[/quote]
Please educate yourself on the terms you're throwing around willy-nilly before coming here and trying to shame me.
That's great that one single person in your personal life is going through a run of bad luck. I have seen people get away with worse and lived happily until they've died.
@Trundle- This isn't an advertisement. It's a thread discussing what sorts of wares I could include in my shop. Can no one read the intro? This is also the GENERAL board. I can discuss things not about AC on here. It's why this thread isn't in the New Leaf board. Different boards for a different topic? Weird.

that is an advert
Sorry I don't really see how that's an advert when I'm not advertising my items and a link isn't available.
