A bomoh is sorts of witch that casts spells. Might be a curse or blessing.

I know a guy having bad relationship with his girlfriend due to a -bomoh- cursing him that his relationship will be terrible forever. And this guy keep wanting me to use Tarot Cards and 'predict' how will his relationship go. He is also a bomoh, but not a experienced well to break the curse.

I actually reject his request. I've stop touching Tarot Cards for about 1 month. That's why i wasnt here for long..

Anyone know about Bomoh? How to break curses and so..

Out of curiosity, what is the origin of the word bomoh? What culture, country, language?

There are many things you can do to break a curse, or protect yourself from one. I wouldn't necessarily consider a binding spell because you really get into a grey area there.

What i know so far is that the Bomoh is a Malay witchdoctor. More on the Malay side. Usually in the Asian.

coldsuns, it is nice to see you again. I was a little concerned about your sudden disappearance.

I think you are right now worrying about things that do not concern you directly. Look after yourself, study at school to get good grades so that you can find a nice job and give treats to your Mum with your salary so that she doesn't have to work so hard anymore, explore different spiritual paths, but do not believe blindly in one or the other. Put your Tarot cards away for a while. Don't listen to any gurus or people who promise you heaven or hell. They will not lead you to the light. Anyone who comes and tells you that they know the truth, run away.

The angels are by your side all the time and will guide you if you listen to your heart.

Just tell yourself that if you do not give the bomohs any power, they are absolutely powerless to affect you in any way. Just put your hand in the Great Spirit and he will lead you where you must go.

Stop trying so hard.

Go slowly, Little Master. Please.
