Compassionate Depossession and Curse Unraveling

Many people are uncomfortable with the idea that there might be trouble in the spirit realm or that harm can be done through thought or ritual. In most cultures who recognize a spirit realm and the other than material powers, there is also a recognition that things can go wrong in these realms and with these powers. To me it is the spiritual equivalent of recognizing that sometimes we all get a little lost (even in spirit form) and that we all do harm (sometimes intentional and sometimes unintentional).

My experience with the spirits is that most of the time who ever is there does not want to be there, especially when given a better alternative. And often we can find a much better place for them to be. I see compassionate depossession as much a service to the spirits as to the living person. Who wouldn't want to see their great Aunt or that nature spirit who used to live next door to your ancestors safely to the next realm? 

Unfortunately some spirits are entangled in what is commonly called curses. They are often called in to reinforce some intention created a lot of the time by a human. Sometimes these intentions are even supposedly good, like to protect one's family or a linage of wisdom. Getting to understand why something is put into place and working towards renegotiating the terms that are having a negative impact on the living can not only be life-giving to the living, but also to the spirits who are reinforcing these entanglements. 

I've completed advanced training with Betsy Bergstrom in Compassionate Depossession and Curse Unraveling and every time I do this work I touch on the deeper understanding that we are all the body of the goddess, even in spirit form. And to tend the unseen as diligently and compassionately as we do the living is a gift we can offer the web of creation.

It can sometimes feel daunting to bring awareness to these areas of difficulties, especially in a society that does not recognize them as real or makes them frightening. But consider it as you would tending a common cold. These things are quite normal, because everything is woven with spirit. Sometimes there are kinks in the weft or things caught in the weave, but we can tend the tapestry together.
