GYPSY WITCHCRAFT--THE MAGICAL POWER WHICH IS INNATE IN ALL MEN AND WOMEN--HOW IT MAY BE CULTIVATED AND DEVELOPED--THE PRINCIPLES OF FORTUNE-TELLING

Many centuries in the past, Roma were Goddess-worshipers in Europe. Their goddess, Kali, was a trinity. Its symbol was a triangle. The male part was a God with horns. The similarities between the ancient belief of Roma and that of Wicca are obvious, but these beliefs were abandoned a long time by Roma. For centuries the Roma, as they are called today, but gypsies as they were known then traveled the world and carried a rich and unique culture with them. Their influence touched the world in so many ways that one can hardly begin to count the number of traditions that can be directly traced back to their ways.

There is no culture of Roma today. In fact, there is no general agreement on which people should qualify to be called Roma. The groups of Romani around the world hold the traditions, the habits, and the belief, differently. Groups that settle in a place generally absorb part of the local culture of the non-Romas. The majority of Roma convert to the religions of their host countries, typically Christianity—Roman Catholicism, Eastern orthodoxy, Protestantism—and Islam. Today the Roma are known by several names: Gypsies, Rom, Rroma, and Romani. Their formal religious affiliation is often supplemented by the traditional beliefs of Roma:

The existence of God
The existence of Satan
The existence of bad luck and spirits
Power of good charms, amulets, and talismans of chance
Power of curses
Power of healing rituals

Hope you enjoyed this!!!

Blessed be
