Okay so.. One day i was using holy watter for something ( can't really remember ), but when it touched my skin it kinda burned and left a mark on my skin for some mnts. To this day now it still happens, everytime it touches me i feel heat ( it doesn't really hurt ), but it leaves a mark. I have no idea why, can someone please help me ?

Where are you getting this holy water from? I've received a rash from church holy water before. Some churches add some of the oil that they use to anoint with in the water. Some add rose water to it. Some even let flowers or petals float in the water! It could also be an allergy to the metallic basin they keep it in.

I would suggest switching sources or making your own.

If you really think about it, the practice of keeping water stagnant in little pools all over a crowded church that people are encouraged to dip their fingers into (the same three they eat with and wipe with after using the bathroom) is extremely disgusting. God only knows what's in there! (pun intended)

I have tried it from other sources, or even my own, it is leaves the mark!
At the first time that i touched it ( first time ever ) it actually got to the point i nearly had to put cold watter on it 'cause it hurted alot. Now it just leaves a mark and burns a little bit. But i have no idea why. I tried switching sources, i tried making my own, it still leaves the mark. :/

Well, if you insist on metaphysical reasons, then you may wish to switch the prayer you use. Understand that a blessing is merely a well wishing. It is not truly "holy". What makes it "holy" is your reverence to the sacred idea that it represents. "Holy water" is generally believed to be blessed by a particular deity. If you do not share the view that it is associated with something that you consider sacred, then it will react in whatever way you actually associate it with. It could be considered psychosomatic in this respect as your subconscious can become very empowered with focused ritual. This is why it is very important in magick to Know Thyself (Oracle of Delphi) truly. If you do not understand what you find to be truly sacred, and utilize what you are actually uncomfortable with, then it will have a negative impact instead of a positive one. This same thing could occur in spells. If you cast a love spell but have a fear of commitment, it can "backfire" through your fears, despite the intentions being clear.

This is why Paul Hudson suggests the ever famous recitation of the Lords Prayer backwards in order to mentally break free of the fears that Christianity can create such as the concepts of sin and hell. Practicing witchcraft while holding onto such concepts can become very destructive to the self and the Self.

I understand what you mean, and i do thank you for your time, but what buggs me is that, from every single holy watter that touched my skin it left a mar, ask you know. And i told my brother and mom to use it to see if it was the watter or something but they said it felt just like normal watter. I just really want to know why it leaves marks on me and not on them. And again, thank you for your time.

You must understand that despite magick itself being something outside of us and around us, it is also within us and when we practice magick, it begins within us. We are still bound by the limitations and processes of our mind and emotions and they can both get in the way more than most expect. Think about it. What is magick? The manifestation of the will, right? Well the issue is, what is your will? We want lots of things but it takes a lot of looking within to realize what our true will is. And let's not even get into Divine Will and how that can get tangled up in things. This is why it is important to do work to train and prepare yourself internally before practicing ceremony. Awake's guide to "The Basics" is a good start.

Yeah.. I'll think about it, thanks for your time and help.
