Have also started blessing the home with Holy Water every night since after Christmas and applying some before going outside or into college. Seems to be helping. This may seem a bit extreme, but in the city and country where I'm living things are becoming almost demonic day by day.
Northern suburbs of Atlanta, we also have a large piece of land in the north Georgia mountains where we are right now. My daughter just returned to college down in Mobile, are you around there?
Yes just over the bay in Stapleton, in Baldwin county. I belong to the Carmelite community in Mobile. Maybe we can get together some time!
We have a new Latin Mass Parish which I have been attending this last few weeks. On the Feast of the Epiphany he blessed chalk , which threw me and left them in a little basket for us to collect after mass. This is an ancient tradition I had never even heard of. Also it seems they do Epiphany Water in some places. I got a couple of nice bright red pieces of chalk. I haven't gotten round to using them yet. https://aleteia.org/2020/01/05/epiphany-water-is-a-powerful-weapon-against-satan/
This is a neat visible sign and one I have seen used over the doors to gathering halls here. I always wonder why things like this fall out of favor.
Someone sent me on this video. It needs Discernment and a certain caution. It is by a Protestant lady who talks a lot about the Rapture, so you can forget about all that. I haven't studied up o nthis stuff but I have three reasons for paying this attention. Firstly a date in and around May 12th of this year (Our Lady of Fatima..May 13th.) Secondly weird phenomena showing around the recent ongoing Volcano in the Phillipines. Thirdly the recent ongoing volcano in Mexico, a huge increase of seismic activity all over the place and extraordinary weather events that are occurring everywhere. Anyway for your Discernment. Freaky video. For your Discernment.
Talking about freaky. Have a look at the Lightening around this ongoing volcano in the Phillipines. Also weird faces in the clouds...
But perhaps the biggest Sign is this: https://www.lifesitenews.com/news/i...dl-sarah-defend-priestly-celibacy-in-new-book Which may very well spell open warfare in the Church herself. Mind blowing.
Today was the conjunction of Pluto and Saturn. There will be another later this year as well. Interesting that we had major volcanic eruptions on the same day.
If I lived there I would not be standing around taking pictures. Poor people. Prayers. What truly incredible times we are living through. Most certainly we have entered the fullness of the Tribulation itself.
It certainly seems that way given all that is happening in the earth itself not to mention all the controversies surrounding everything in the world of mankind. The fall of so many of our institutions and exposure of the corruption is non stop. Constant division and chaos seems to be the order these days.
Yes there is a Dark Side. But there is a bright side too. The Holy Spirit rising again in every generation. Our Lady seems to be leading the Battle in Silence and Hiddeness. But she is there all the same. It takes a little more time and prayer to see this. But there are miracles happening all around us. Dear God give us eyes to see.
We also received blessed chalk; the first time for this at our parish. I think it's a sign of the times that old traditions are being revived. Evil is growing and we need protection. I haven't gotten around to doing this either, I crashed and burned with the flu right after the holidays, so I'm hoping to take care of it this week.
Apparently it takes an hour to bless Epiphany Water. I can't imagine. I must ask the priests. They say it is very powerful. I love Sacramentals. I am so sad I never heard about any of this before. I wonder what else I have missed?
