I’ve been struggling with this for years. I was once heavily into the occult and I still am despite calling myself a Christian. I’ve tried everything from praying the rosary to the Jesus prayer going to church reading the Bible everyday and nothing seems to pull me away from the grip of the occult. I’m scared and I don’t know what to do! Please help. God bless.
I used to be into the occult, and have gone back and forth. I burned my astrology books and tried my best to destroy all the charts I had made. I couldn’t undo a lot of the damage but did my best to try. I went to confession.
What helps me is the daily rosary and daily mass. If I don’t go to mass daily, I find I fall back in the same sins.
I’d recommend if you have things of the occult, to destroy them…any books, etc. Get some holy water and sprinkle it on yourself and all around. Pray a prayer of deliverance.
You can pray the prayer of St. Michael and get a St. Benedict medal and a Miraculous medal and pray the prayers for each. Wear the Miraculous Medal and bring the St. Benedict medal, say on your keychain with you. Wear a scapular underneath your clothing.
Does your house have crucifixes? My mother had one in every room except the bathroom, and so do I.
Surround yourself with good movies, music and books.
How about your friends? Do you have any friends who are pulling you to the occult? You might need to find a new circle of friends who support you in your faith.
Instead of visiting occult shops, visit Catholic stores. Change your habits. Substitute a good habit for each bad one.
You can also speak to your priest about it.
Praying for you.
