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.

bomoh is the malay word for "witch doctor". thought to have originated from Malaysia and Indonesia. there are some of them in Thailand and i do believe in the other less developed asian countries.
deem to be rather powerful and tend to be cast in bad light, though, of cos, not necessary so.
coldsuns,
it is interesting the things that u bring up in aeclectic forum.
just curious, maybe u like to share with us how sure u are that ur friend is under the spell of a bomoh.
usually, people under such spells are rather "happy" and wont realise it. However, they become mentally unbalanced when the person who wants the spell casted spurn them.
to be a bomoh, usually one needs training from young and to be gifted as well. they tend to have a teacher as their guidance. If your friend is a young bomoh, he ought to have his teacher around. Also, they will be able to protect themselves from curses.
as for breaking it, few options.
1. get the girlfriend to stop the spell (hopefully it is not the kind that can't be broken). Like most hexes, there will be karma.
2. seek the bomoh who cast it and plead with him/her to get rid of the curse. (haha.. provided u can find him/her i guess)
3. counterspell by another bomoh (may not totally get rid of the original curse but could at least counter the effect)
4. stick with the girlfriend la.
in this sort of situations, i would say it's redundant to get in priests to do exoricism. (pardon me, but priests are pretty useless in oriental magic).
as for tarot, i doubt it works actually. but can try anyway, it incorporates astrology,qabal,alchemy...
fight it using magic that comes from the same background.
PS: if u are still playing with Ouja, quit it. you are pretty like my friend when she was 14.
PS: Diana, I LOVE UR reply!!! *wink*

is to picture oneself totaly surrounded by white light and filled with light and then ask the universe whatever negatively is directed at you is returned to the source ten , 7 or three fold. depending on your choice.
you can do it as well by visualizing this and asking the angels to watch over your friend (or his spirit helper or his spirit animal)
and then you have to let it go as you have your own life to lead
(if your friend is open to it you can tell him this . then your visualization for him will strenght his own visualization of himself).

That's right, shielding in any way can be a strong protection. Sometimes for an untrained individual the mere conscious thought of strongly NOT wanting something to happen can put a protective shield up. Anyone can do it.
But if he IS a bomoh in training, where's his teacher? He/she should be handling this for him. That's what they're there to do, after all.
