The Great Secret of Holy Death - стр. 4
People ask her for anything: health, love, good luck, to recover stolen objects or even kidnapped relatives, for business, to open new roads, to win trials, to ward off bad neighbours, to protect vehicles from accidents and thefts, to have more money, to recover debts that people owe us, to find work, to bring food into the home, to ward off harmful friends from your partner or loved ones, to increase love in our partner, to forget a love, to regain a love lost, for matrimonial attraction, to ward off the lover of your partner, to make it up with your partner, for abundance, etc. Several rituals and special prayers are used to approach the Holy Death and gain her favours.
It is said that when the Holy Death grants a favour, one of our relatives must pay for it. This is absolutely false, since she protects the family from illnesses caused by works of black magic, witchcraft or natural disease. It is also said that she punishes you if you do not give her penances. This is totally false too, since she works to help her devotees and not to punish them. We must ask her with faith and kindness, with all our heart and without trying to hurt anyone: respect, faith and devotion from the heart for the Most Holy Death. No matter how difficult a problem may be, the Holy Death will help us without asking for anything in return, but if you offer her something you must give it to her wholeheartedly.
Every day the Holy Death has more devotees and the jealous Church does not see this with good eyes.
It is important to know that by asking the Holy Death, you unleash great forces which magnitude and power must always be handled with a lot of respect and faith. A misuse of everything revealed in this book, is the responsibility only of those who misuse them. If you decide to use them for the dark side, sooner or later they will revert to you for evil, making you guilty for yourself.
Normally, the images of the Holy Death and her cult in general are treated with sincerity and for offering company, something very different from the usual fear of religious rituals. The thing is to treat the image as a member of your family and to appear before it without fearing or disrespecting her.
It is said that once, a sanctuary where the Most Holy Death was being worshiped disappeared because it was annoying some people. To avoid this, believers have different options: hide her image, or replace it with a white rose.
As a curiosity, there is the famous image of Jose Guadalupe Posadas called La Catrina that is currently in prints, small paper cards, chains, rings, medals and figures of bulk of different shades and sizes.
There is a legend that emerges from her, in a place called San Pantaleón. In this place hundreds of people professed their faith in this image, which apparently had been destroyed in a fire ironically caused by a candle that one of the worshippers lit for the image. In that same town, another loyal devotee made a new image using a wooden log and placed it near the temple where people worshipped the image and showed their devotion every July 27. The inhabitants of the town carried small figures of the Holy Death round their necks, and worshipped the image with absolute faith in their houses. The miners entrusted themselves to the Holy Death before going down to the mines, so that day after day she would bring them back to their houses and there would be no tragedies. Every day she had more devotees because the people’s petitions were heard. After some time, the production of minerals stopped and the people left the town. Nothing was ever heard about the image they worshipped.
