I'd like to discuss the topic of differences between types of black magic workings. Is there a difference between the things like curses, hexes, laying tricks, hotfooting, etc? If so, does a curse have different effects than a hex? If so, what? Is one "worse" than the other or is it all just semantics and the words are interchangeable? Let's discuss!

As far as I'm aware of - they're just synonyms coming from different traditions and whatnot, referring to the same general idea of a malefic outbound construct.. but don't quote me on that, just giving my perspective.

There are differences here: first of all, a curse involves five senses of the human being, the eyes of a person who curses, it sparks of hatred, you can feel the taste of blood, you can hear the screams of the victim and so on, in my view, it´s a dangeour practice because if you do not limit it, you can hit a whole family, if you can fuck a person, fuck that person, not the whole family. You need a good protection for not being hit for that kind of energy.

As for the hexes, it involves one or two senses, it attacks the auric camp and it hits two bodies: astral and spiritual, If you are a good magician, a simple work with candels warden off such energies.

A curse is more complicated, because in the course of generations, it becomes stronger, bringing all kind of bad luck, nightmares, misfortune and so on, It´s not impossible to break it, but you need more knowledge for dissolving that.

What I have said here is the practical part, but if you think necessary to make some corrections, it feels free for making.

Indeed! I also view them as separate and I like your take on how the type of malefic magic affects the target(s) differently. My take is essentially the same: curses are general and can affect one's entire life or be focused down to a specific area whereas hexes are generally specific.

This is honestly something I've never thought of, tbh. I've done exactly one hex, as the definition above would call it, and I just hated how fast the feeling of power over someone else went to my head. Haven't had much motive to try anything since, or at least not anything that a passive-aggressive uncrossing couldn't be used for instead. I have broken my fair share of curses and hexes, though.

Fausto, can you explain how does the Hexes effect both the Spiritual, and Astral Bodies? I would love to learn more about it. As for me, I thank The Universe for not getting me involved with that stuff. I never had Hexes or curses or anything of that sort put on to me. Even though, I am not afraid of those things. Many blessings!! to everyone.

Wow!!! I did not know that thank you Fausto for clearing that out for me. But may I add, that even if a hex could do that to the Astral Body, and Spiritual Body, to me the Spiritual and Astral bodies can never be destroyed even if hexes makes holes on them. I don't think you stop to exist. Just wanted to add that up.

Hi, When I spoke about creating holes, I meant if you make some works of magic, for wardening off the hexes, such bodies come back to normal, it´s not forever.
As for curses, although they have a general goal, you can define which fields will be hit, but you define mentally.

I see the words hexes and curses as descriptors of various levels of the same thing. Malefic work. In my own understanding of this, the source is really the most crucial part. Is the hex or curse coming from candle work? Did someone send a spirit? Then depending on that you can get a feel for the "blast radius" and the type of damage we're dealing with.

The interesting thing is that I can send a spirit to someone to just fuck up their day/week. Some would view that more like a "hex". The same could be achieved with a candle or jar. But the sources are completely different and in my eyes, require different forms of treatment and can have different side effects. Even though you're not cursed, having the energies of a spirit around you that's there to cause harm can leave residual vibes that can cause things like nightmares, etc, which may be improperly diagnoses as a "curse".

Although I do agree with the part that curses are more complicated and spread out in their affect, I don't think hexes are only bound to hitting astral and spiritual bodies of the target. A hex can also make someone physical ill temporarily, affect aspects of their daily life. And the part of the holes I'm not so sure about either because if a spirit is the one working the hex, they're not really making holes in anything. Even a candle. Both work to if anything, add additional frequencies to their aura/spirit to cause the harm. Or throw freqs off. Unless of course the spirit was sent to create a hole or whatnot. All I'm trying to say is that I believe it's a more complicated than that and the whole deal seems to have levels to it.

As far as one being worse, that's where the semantics come into play I think. A "hex" can have some super serious effects, just like a curse can be "light" in weight and just cause discomfort. What's worse, a hex causing you to crash your car and get injured, or a curse that causes nightmares every night about an ugly entity? That's where to me the line blurs and the words just become words, because ultimately they're just descriptors used differently by different people and groups about different things. Either you're helping someone or you're hurting someone. There's not many in-betweens in this whole thing.

Interesting to think about the differences between the two though!

Hey Ryen!! nicely well explained, I like that statement that you said "if a spirit is the one working the hex, they're not really making holes in anything." I think you covered it up more thank you.

Let´s continue to discuss about curses and hexes: in general terms, a curse links with multiple forces lines while a hex links with a simple force line, but there are curses with ten or even hundreds of forces lines.
A force line is the path where the energy of curse flows, however, this is one of the many ways for which a energy is transported.

When I speak of the holes in the astral and spiritual bodies, I mean of breaches that appear in their bodies, like I said before such breaches do not last forever, if you know to break them.(hexes and curses)
As for a hex has more effects than a curse, I agree, but, it depends on the mental force of the black magician and who he is evoking, because a black magician will never has more power than an old spirit who masters such art.

Both a curse and hex work with specific forces line, most of them at least.

I can only see that it is amount of complexity which defines if your spell is considered a hex or a curse. That definition also seems to be quite loose. I would be with Ryen on this question.

As for effectiveness of a curse, hex, spiritwork. I am never certain of my own results and my work without seeing it with my own eyes. Spiritual senses can't be confirmed for a fact to be as they seem. Due to this, at least some delusion is often present among practitioners. Like previously mentioned spirit, until you force spirit to take pictures with its smartphone, fill proper paperwork and give reports to you, you can't be certain it did anything at all.

A curse will take medium to log term, other point here is as for the protection of the victim, If she knows how to protect, a curse or even a hex will not have the desired effect, but, it's only my simple opinion.

You don't have to use black magic to do baneful workings on someone
