I'm wondering if anyone has used anointed Benedictine medals and how that worked for you as a personal ward.
Have you noticed a difference? I was reading about st benedict medals and looking online (yes i know) and saw some people saying that you can bless them yourself if you’re not comfortable with Salvationist padres or church. Everyone seems to agree that they need to be blessed/consecrated to be “activated”, for lack of a better word. I saw one blessing that was kind of Wiccan where they blessed it with the 4 elements.Regarding the St. Benedict medal and other religious artifacts, I recommend having them blessed by someone qualified to activate them. Only in this way can you unlock their full potential.
After I got my first sets of beads, I showed them to a priest. He placed them on the altar and said something. He said all beads made in the monasteries get blessed anyway. I don't know about the st Benedict medals. Probably the ones from monasteries are thrown on the altar or a service is done over a pile somewhere.I read a Catholic website and they were insistent that you make sure your priest exorcised the medal BEFORE blessing it, because they said a lot of priests would just throw a blessing on there without doing the exorcism first.
I’m just curious whether there’s a measurable difference between having the religious authority associated with it do the blessing or say a magician.
