What they called “faith” was often just hypnosis. What they called “covenant” was often just control. And what they called “blessing” was often just silence packaged with guilt.

The spell was not cast with herbs or candles — it was cast with repetition, shame, fear, and applause. It was science. Psychological conditioning. A formula disguised as prophecy. A loop disguised as purpose.

But every spell, no matter how old, has a structure. And every structure can be studied, disassembled, broken. You don’t need a counter-spell. You need awareness.

Begin the science of breaking spells:

• Identify the pattern they want you to repeat.
• Withdraw your attention — your energy is the battery.
• Name the mechanism. (Guilt. Fear. Loneliness. Hero worship.)
• Rewrite the script — speak aloud what they told you never to think.

Spells only work in darkness. That’s why they silence questions, burn books, and shame dreams. Light is the natural antidote. Not the one from the pulpit — but the one you buried in your belly when you were three years old and called “too much.”

To awaken is not rebellion. It is repair.
