Hello, I'm new to this site. I need some advice. There has been a generational curse performed towards my mother's side. It's been going on for 40 years. I'm not sure what the woman that did this practiced, but it was set up to destroy relationships for the women in my family. I know meditation and protection spells help, but only so much. I want this gone once and for all. Do you have any tips or ideas?
You could try a curse breaking spell. Here is an article with lots of different methods to do this,

That sounds rough! No background on the caster, huh? Ma'am, that's heavy stuff.
I honestly wouldn't know what to do here. If it's really been in effect for generations, the casters involved must've been incredibly powerful(or angry), but I doubt it'll last much longer. I can understand how you might not want to let something like this cycle out, though.
I would suggest maybe a wish spell, or a degradation spell. I know most hexes can be weathered by writing down the effects and ideally, the caster's name, on a leaf and letting it rot in the dirt.
Curses are empowered and strengthened by their targets emotions & mindset. You control your future not some curse so just focus on a positive outlook with the knowledge that you are stronger than a curse cast by a possibly dead & certainly old witch. I suggest a spell to purify and dissipate any negative energy as an added measure but I don't think this curse can overcome the willpower & love of two people.
Generational curses are easy to break, what they basically do is program in you what the caster wants (like someone forcing you to something you don't want or making decisions for you).
Luckily the solution is simple, all you have to do is meditate on who you are and what you want from life, let the universe know you are your own person and of course cleanse yourself while doing the whole process.
If you need any other way than the previously provided, you can try to reverse the curse using mirrors and chanting. but looking at the previous it looks as if you have the required materials to reverse it. Best of luck to you.
