Thursday salt for treating a child after an accident. Thursday salt: method of preparation and use. Thursday salt for spoilage

The final Holy Week of Lent before Easter is rich in rituals and customs. The first half of the week was devoted to cleaning, cleaning, repairing the house and working in the garden. Preparations for the holiday began on Wednesday. Thursday – Clean, Zhilny or Bolshoi – baking of ritual paskas. Friday was particularly quiet in the house. On Big Saturday they prepared for the all-night service.

Thursday was a special day that patronized cleanliness. Not only was the house thoroughly swept and washed, all the utensils in the home were subject to cleaning, all linen and clothes were washed. All family members had to wash themselves before dawn. On this day, livestock was slaughtered and rituals were performed, ingredients that had life-giving properties were prepared.

According to legends, black or Thursday salt. It was originally prepared from coarse rock salt in a Russian oven according to ancient recipes. Usually, processed salt was stored in a linen bag in the kitchen away from prying eyes. They consumed it as a panacea for everything. It served as a talisman for homes and people, could help with illnesses, protected from quarrels, cleansed from the evil eye, and brought prosperity and grace to the household.

How to prepare Thursday salt

The easiest way is to pound snow-white rock salt in a wooden mortar on the old moon, place it in a bag and store it near the hearth until Maundy Thursday. On a holy day, bake in the oven and take it to church for consecration. Such charmed salt serves as protection against all evil, and diluted in water cures diseases.

Or, combine salt with the grounds of homemade bread kvass or with softened black bread. Instead, you can chop cabbage leaves or a mixture of aromatic herbs. Burn the prepared mixture in the oven until it turns black - the salt becomes enriched with minerals and acquires a dark color. Afterwards, use a sieve to shake and pour the salt into containers for normal use. The remaining ash is used as activated carbon to remove toxic substances from the body and to cure numerous dermatological diseases.

They take ordinary salt to church and celebrate the service. They leave it on the table for the holy night or take it out into the yard under the stars. They cast a spell early in the morning when the sun is rising, pour it onto the palm of one hand and rotate it over it with the other, and read the spell. Spellbound in this way Thursday salt for spoilage and will protect you from scandals. By performing special magical rituals using gold and silver, rock salt was endowed with strong cleansing qualities.

Thursday Salt and Orthodoxy

Indeed, there is a very ancient “Prayer over the salt” for its consecration. This blessing descended on salt, since it is considered a necessary food for man, given by the earth. It is worth noting that the liturgical books do not establish the need to bless salt on any specific day.

When ordinary means are insufficient, people turn to conspiracies and the help of magicians. Misfortunes, bad luck and everyday quarrels are often attributed to higher powers and, accordingly, to get rid of them, they turn to magic and witchcraft. Healers use Thursday salt treatment, sorcerers remove damage, and every magician considers salt an important and necessary attribute.

Pagan superstitions appeared in infinitely ancient times. The use of Thursday salt, according to many well-known customs, very often runs counter to Christian beliefs. Moreover, they are blasphemous superstitions. These prejudices are pagan, and while retaining their essence, they are associated in human consciousness with pious celebration. True Orthodox traditions are in no way united with Thursday salt.

Thursday salt is closely associated with Easter holidays, but was it really prepared according to church regulations? Yes, it is prepared on Maundy Thursday, it is recommended to be blessed with Easter cakes and colored eggs, and is used in miraculous rituals to protect and fight illnesses. But, it also helps sorcerers and magicians in practice.

I want to tell you how our family is saved from various diseases by salt prepared on the last Thursday before Easter. This salt has long been used by people for treatment, and they also wear it on the chest as a talisman, protecting themselves from the evil eye.

They stock up on Thursday salt for the whole year. To do this, ordinary salt is mixed on a clean canvas cloth with various herbs and other additives, then early in the morning before sunrise on Thursday before Easter, after reading the “Our Father” before that, the salt and herbs are baked in the oven (in no case in the microwave! ) until it turns black. Black salt, unlike ordinary white salt, does not cause thirst and does not retain water in the body. At the same time, it contains a lot of microelements such as potassium, magnesium, copper, selenium and calcium, and the carbon contained in Thursday salt in the form of finely porous coal absorbs and removes toxins and poisons from the body.

To prepare salt with spicy herbs I mix 5 kg of homemade rye bread or bran softened in apple cider vinegar, 1 kg of coarse rock salt, 3-4 handfuls of mint, dill and oregano taken equally in dry form, place everything in an oven heated to 2500 C and bake until blackened . After the mixture has cooled, I grind it and sift through a sieve. I also cook Thursday salt with oatmeal. You need to soak 3 kg of flakes for 30 minutes in cold water, then drain the water, mix the flakes with 1 kg of salt and bake in the oven until smoke appears. After this, cool, chop and sift through a sieve.

HEALTH INTO THE QUANTUM TRANSITION, READ, WATCH THE VIDEO AND TELL YOUR FRIENDS. “I TELL YOU A MYSTERY: WE WILL NOT ALL DIE, BUT WE WILL ALL CHANGE” (Bible, 1st Cor.) ........................ ........................................................ ..... Recently, things and events have been happening in our environment concerning the spiritual, mental and physical well-being of people, which coincide in many ways, but cannot be described or do not fit any case. These states are not standard, new, but still natural. For those who have noticed this, the following material is collected from various sources, articles and personal observations. “Everyone knows that the Earth is now moving to a new turn of the evolutionary spiral, into a new energy space of the fourth dimension, and this transition is called Quantum. The quantum transition that the Earth and everything living on it (including humans) undergoes affects our emotional, mental and physical well-being and requires a thorough renewal of all spheres of human activity, but special attention still needs to be paid to physical, mental and spiritual health. Why do medications NOT help today? What is happening TODAY at the cellular and atomic-molecular level in the human body? Why do visits to doctors not only do not give the desired result, but often turn out to be, at a minimum, a waste of time and money? All occurring phenomena lead traditional medicine to a complete dead end and, as a result, are neither more nor less ignored. By inertia, the prescription of antibiotics and analgesics that are no longer helping continues. By inertia, incorrect diagnoses are made and incorrect treatment is carried out. WHAT TO DO? How can we help ourselves and our loved ones cope with the panic that is increasingly attacking our consciousness? What should be our competent behavior when incomprehensible symptoms of discomfort fall on us out of the blue? Those who are well acquainted with the Living Ethics of Agni Yoga are well (and for a long time!) aware of the nature of the processes currently taking place, deeply revealed in this Book of Life for Humanity of the Epoch of Transition! And these processes have their place, time, and name. And Oleg Nikitin talks about them today in the article “Why are we “shaking”?..”. More precisely, the material was taken from the pages of one site, but presented quite popularly. “Since April 2012, human DNA began to undergo more intense mutation under the influence of increasing solar activity. More precisely, the transmutation of cells of all living things on the planet has been going on for decades. But I am writing this because many are scared, try to look for doctors, unable to recognize the process of changes in their physical body on a deep level. But the treatment doesn’t work, the government’s medical proposals don’t work: all this does not correspond to the challenges that the Sun offers to a person. These symptoms come and go unexpectedly, appear for no reason, and go away on their own. These are good signs: the body is sending you a message that it is freeing itself from old biology and old thinking (keep up with it). Symptoms that arise from mutation (rearrangement) of DNA and changes in the body at the cellular level: a feeling of fatigue or emptiness with minor exertion; desire to sleep longer or more often than usual; symptoms of a flu-like condition - high fever, sweat, pain in bones and joints, etc. And all this cannot be treated with antibiotics; dizziness; tinnitus. An important symptom is pain in the heart, cardiac arrhythmia, which occurs due to the adjustment of the heart to accept new energies. Today, for a “transitional” person, it is time to open the 4th heart chakra - the chakra of love and compassion. It is often blocked (in 90% of ordinary people!), and its activation can be accompanied by attacks of melancholy and fear. The 4th chakra is associated with the thymus gland. This organ is located in the front of the lungs and is in its infancy for most. She didn't develop at all. When the 4th chakra begins to open, the thymus begins to grow. At a later stage, it may even be visible on tomography. The growth of the thymus gland is associated with chest pain, suffocation, and again there may be symptoms of bronchitis - pneumonia, in which doctors will mistakenly diagnose influenza or pneumonia... Now, WHAT TO DO? The main thing is no panic! Take a walk. Move! Bicycle, swimming pool... Water contrasts are a must. Be sure to drink soda every day on an empty stomach! (at the same time, extinguish it with boiling water) The body needs to be accustomed to soda gradually, starting with a dose at the tip of a teaspoon and bringing it up to half a teaspoon 2 times a day. You need to drink soda with hot water or hot milk, or better yet, a hot infusion of valerian tea. Valerian and soda are an amazing, indispensable remedy for burning centers. Baking soda also prevents cancer. From the Letters of Helena Roerich - ed.). You can, if it helps, use homeopathy. Use of essential oils. Shiatsu massage, etc. A very good recommendation: hanging for the spine. Stretch. Stretch and stretch your muscles and muscles. Do exercises for your neck - head up, down, left and right, put your ear on your shoulder, then on the other. Try your best. I’ll say a little more from myself: breathe correctly. And this is a whole art. If you feel like it's coming, breathe deeply as you can, and as slowly as you can. And remember this advice for the situation when day X comes, and it will come... If anything, breathe deeply. Here are some psychophysical symptoms and an attempt to explain how to approach it: 1. Feeling as if you are in a pressure cooker of intense energy and, as a result, stress. Remember, to adapt to a higher vibration, you must eventually change. Old patterns of behavior and beliefs come to the surface in a conflicting form. Manage your behavior (self-control!) with the help of thoughts-orders. Tame your EGO, emotions, feelings... 2. Feeling of disorientation, loss of sense of place. You are not in 3D anymore. And on the “fiery front line”. For both body and spirit. 3. Unusual pain in different parts of the body. It is the released previously blocked energies that vibrate in 3D while you vibrate in a higher dimension. 4. Waking up at night between 2 and 4 o'clock. A lot happens to us in our dreams. “Cosmic healers” work with our physical organs and subtle bodies during the night’s rest. Therefore, you may sometimes even need a break during these intense processes and you wake up. 5. Forgetfulness. You notice how some details fall out of your memory. And that's putting it mildly! The fact is that from time to time you are in the border zone, in more than one dimension, hanging back and forth, and physical memory can simply be blocked at these moments. In addition: the past is part of the old, and the old is gone forever. 6. Loss of identity. You are trying to access your past self, but it is no longer possible. You may sometimes catch yourself feeling like you don't know who it is when looking at yourself in the mirror. 7. Out-of-body experience. You may feel as if someone is speaking for you, but it is not you. This is a natural survival mechanism when you are under stress. The body is under great pressure, and you are “in the moment” for a split second as if you are leaving the body. So you shouldn't experience what your body is going through right now. It lasts no more than a moment and passes. 8. Increased sensitivity to the environment. Crowds, noise, food, cars, TV, loud voices - you can barely stand it all anymore. You easily fall into a state of depression and, conversely, easily become excited and hyperexcited. Your psyche is adjusted to new, more subtle vibrations! Help yourself in different ways to relax. 9. Don't you feel like doing anything? This is not laziness or depression. This is a “reboot” of your biocomputer. Don't force yourself. Your body knows what it needs. REST! 10. Intolerance of 3D lower vibrational phenomena, conversations, relationships, social structures, etc. They literally make you feel sick. You grow and no longer coincide with much and much of what surrounded you before and did not irritate you at all as it does now. It will disappear on its own, don't worry. 11. The sudden disappearance of some friends from your life, a change in habits, work, place of residence, diet... You are rising spiritually, and these people no longer match your vibrations. A NEW one will come soon and it will be much better. 12. Days or periods of extreme fatigue. Your body loses density, becomes thinner, and undergoes intensive restructuring. 13. If you feel low blood sugar attacks, eat more often. On the contrary, you may not want to eat at all. 14. Emotional destabilization, tearfulness... All the emotions that you experienced before and accumulated in yourself come out. Rejoice! Don't hold them back! 15. The feeling that “the roof is going crazy.” It's OK. You open up out-of-body experience and experience of other frequencies - that is, realities. Much has become more accessible to you now. You're just not used to it. Your inner knowledge and intuition grow stronger and barriers disappear. 16. Anxiety and panic. Your EGO loses most of itself and is afraid. Your physiological system is experiencing overload. Something is happening to you that you cannot fully understand, but ALLOW IT!.. 17. You are also losing the low vibration behavior patterns that you once worked for yourself to survive in 3D. This can make you feel vulnerable and helpless. You will soon no longer need these patterns and patterns of behavior. Just be patient and calm, wait. 18. Depression. The outside world does not correspond to your needs and emotions. You are releasing the dark energies that were inside you. Do not be afraid and do not interfere with their exit, but try to transform them (into bright energies - love, goodness, joy, mercy, compassion, non-judgment, tolerance, patience - ed.) so that they do not harm others. 19. Dreams. Many people are aware that they are experiencing unusually intense dreams. 20. Unexpected sweating and temperature fluctuations. Your body changes its “heating” system, cellular wastes burn, remnants of the past are burned in your subtle fields. 21. Your plans suddenly change midway and you start going in a completely different direction. Your soul is trying to balance your energy. Your soul knows more than you. Listen and trust your heart! In your mind there are repressed, unmet needs for KINDNESS, PERFECTION, INTEGRITY, LAW, JUSTICE AND ORDER. Perhaps because of this, you have or may experience such pathological conditions as antipathy, distrust, reliance only on yourself and for yourself, disintegration, anger, cynicism, complete selfishness... Do you know what “medicine” you really lack? - KNOWLEDGE! The Fiery Age has the peculiarity of being also called the Age of Blue Fire, which means that the belief of believers is absolutely correct. Blue spatial fire is a hard, penetrating vibration that interacts with all types of intelligent life on the surface of the planet. Each creation has passed a certain evolutionary level and currently has in its vibrational arsenal that set of vibrations that corresponds to its level of consciousness. The magnetic component of the consciousness of creation (the ability to love) also plays a role. So, if a person’s Soul is black and sinful, that is, vibrates at low emotional and mental frequencies, for it the arrival of subtle and penetrating vibrations of spatial fire will be especially painful. Consequently, there is no contradiction with the ideas of believers about the features of the new era of Blue Fire. After all, it is the “sinner” who thinks and feels in the lowest levels, and therefore is subject to burning in the Blue Fire. It should be noted that among fanatical believers there may be so many truly sinful ones, that is, those with low vibrations of consciousness, which will be a paradox for them, because among non-believers there may be a lot of clear, bright - sinless consciousnesses. Spatial Fire does not note the number of bows before icons, nor the presence of a cross or crescent on a person’s chest, nor the number of mantrams pronounced. Spatial Fire simply tests the conformity of a person’s consciousness to the new era, and anyone who does not fit into the subtlest “pattern” of Blue Fire burns out in it automatically, without the opportunity to receive an answer to requests for salvation and prayers. ........................................................ .. ........................................................ ................... QUANTUM TRANSITION (THREE WORLDS) channeling There are many worlds in parallel to our planet. In the sphere of direct interests of earthlings there are now three worlds: - the dense world, that is, the 3-dimensional Earth, - the dense 4-dimensional Astral world, called Maldena, - the normal 5-dimensional Astral world. The Quantum Transition is the replacement of the Earth by Maldena, that is, the 3-dimensional dense world with the 4-dimensional densified Astral world. The replacement will happen in the same way as a sunburned person's old skin is replaced by new skin, that is, not all at once. First of all, the land of Russia will change, and then, gradually, the remaining regions of the planet. Since November 2012, the Earth has entered the Photon Beam energy band, and in the future there will only be an intensification of its irradiation. The vibration frequency of the Earth's magnetic field is steadily increasing. Until recently, it was 7.8 hertz, by 1996 it rose to 8.6 hertz, by 2007 - to 12 hertz, and at the end of 2012 - 12.4 hertz: “Space begins to change really very intensely, and if in the last millennium the resonant frequency of the Earth, or the pulsation of the “heart” of the Planet, was fixed as a constant value at the level of 7.8 hertz, then in recent years the resonant frequency of the Earth has increased to the level of 12 hertz. If the resonant frequency of the Earth reaches a value of 13 hertz, then in! under these conditions, a “heart attack” for the “heart” of the Earth will already be inevitable! Do not think of the number 13 as a fatal number, because in this case 13 hertz has nothing to do with superstition, but is a quantitative frequency characteristic of the stability of the Planet." The main process of the Transition will take place in three stages: “The Quantum Transition will not be a sharp change in Space and, like every process, has three main stages: beginning, reaching the maximum and ending.” First stage (2008 - 2016). The body of the Earth and the bodies of people become thinner under the influence of high-frequency vibration from the outside. The beginning of the transformation of people is December 21, 2012. Changing consciousness, preparing it for the Transition is the main content of the First Stage. In the First Stage, the dense bodies of earthlings will also be transformed to one degree or another. - Particularly spiritually developed people (about 1%) will transform their earthly body into a normal astral body and move into the fifth-dimensional Astral world. - The bodies of spiritually developed people (about 24%) will be refined to varying degrees of densified astral body. It has already been tested and allows you to live in a four-dimensional densified Astral world, that is, on Malden, where some of these people will move. The other part (less ready) will move to the second stage. - Most people (75%) will transform their body to a lesser extent, and will not yet be ready for the Transition and will continue to live on Earth. According to the Creator: "the first stage ends at the end of 2016" The second stage (2016 -2024). True Babylon will reign on the planet. There will be many people who have made the Transition to the densified and normal Astral worlds. They will live there. There will remain many people on the dense Earth who are at one or another stage of transformation and many who are not going to move anywhere: “After the first stage of the Quantum Transition, your World will receive even greater diversity, because at the same time the “past” and “future” will be nearby ”, therefore, the “present” will represent the Chaos of manifestations, from which the Sixth Race “The Third Stage (2024 - 2033) will then crystallize.” By the end of the third stage, the Transition will be completed. - A small, especially developed part of the population will move to the normal Astral world. - Most of the current earthlings will also become subtle-material, and will already live on Malden, in the densified Astral world: “You have very little left, because your Consciousness, like a sponge, absorbs My New Words about the upcoming Transition without panic at all, since most of you already understands that there will be no physical violence, and the World will remain the same, but transferred to the Astral!” - People who have not made the Transition, that is, remaining in their dense bodies, after the natural end of life, will go to two other planets - they will not be able to live in a dense body on thin Maldena, and by that time the dense Earth will disappear, it will be completely replaced by subtle-material Maldena where life in the Sixth Race begins. These terms are relative; they will not be shortened, but can only lengthen. THE EARTH IS PASSING A QUANTUM TRANSITION, VERY MANY PEOPLE ON EARTH HAVE RECEIVED A CHANNELING (MESSAGE) IN ORDER TO PREPARE PEOPLE FOR THE OCCURRING EVENTS ON EARTH. Channeling in English means “transmission through a channel.” This is a unique way of connecting to the vast repository of information that is located in the Universal Mind. DEFINITION OF CHANNELING WHAT IT IS: Inspired divine words (or energy) of the Creator transmitted to people through a person. The above definition is what channeling actually IS. It means that not only most of the scriptures (of all religions) existing on this planet were channeled in their original form, but also most of the works of art and music! This is a very common phenomenon, however, like many other processes that reappear on Earth in the New Age era, it has been labeled as a “strange phenomenon”. God did not write the Holy Scriptures...it was done by Men inspired by God.

He said that the traitor would be the one who dips his hand into the solilo with him. Judas immediately reached for the plate.

In Rus', on the eve of Maundy Thursday, contaminated salt was burned and purified by fire. Mixed with rye flour or kvass grounds and wrapped in a clean linen rag. The bundle was placed in an old bast shoe, which was placed in the oven overnight. The heat heated up the mixture, charred it, and the salt acquired a black color and unusual properties.

Black salt - for health and beauty

Modern scientists have found that ash from bread, which contains about 6% of Thursday salt, enriches it with iron, sulfur, potassium, calcium, iodine, zinc, copper and other chemicals necessary for the human body. And harmful chlorine partially evaporates during the heat treatment process. This is how salt turns from a “white poison” into a black drug.

Quaternary salt, unlike regular salt, contains almost no heavy metals, which have a destructive effect on the digestive tract and cause dysfunction of the liver and kidneys. It treats constipation, bloating (increased gas formation), and increases appetite.

In the old days, healers advised adding it to the water in which the baby was bathed, so that the child would grow up handsome, healthy and intelligent.

How to prepare black salt?

Recipes for making Thursday salt have come down from time immemorial, they have been passed down from generation to generation. Previously, salt was fired in Russian kilns, flooded with birch firewood. Nowadays, on the last Thursday of Lent, it is prepared with prayer in the oven.

Recipe No. 1. The crusts are cut off from rye bread, preferably Borodino bread (200 g). The crumb is poured with water and kneaded into a paste. 200 g of coarse rock salt (not iodized), 2 teaspoons of cumin and coriander are poured into it. Instead of these spices, you can take mint and oregano in the same quantities. The components are thoroughly mixed and placed in a dry metal form. It is placed in an oven heated to 220 degrees. After 15 minutes, the hardened bread is broken into pieces and returned to the oven until fully cooked, about an hour. Burnt crackers are thoroughly crushed. This is black Thursday salt.

Recipe No. 2. The grounds remaining from the kvass are mixed with coarse salt. Proportions as in the first recipe. Cook in the oven until the leaven residue turns black. Grind and sift. The black salt will remain in the sieve. It is poured into a glass jar and stored in the kitchen, closer to the fire.

On Easter, together with Easter cakes, this salt is blessed in the temple. Dyed eggs are eaten with Thursday salt. Tasty and very healthy.
