Someone cursed me and my friend we were able to break it but there were little brown bags and his contained things for a binding spell, mine contained one of my pictures, with red wax over it and it was surrounded by a red ribbon and it contained some herbs, what does this mean? I'm sure she was limiting my magic power which explains why a spell I casted didn't work and how i could Astral project no matter how many times I tried, when I tried to Astral project I couldn't do it and I would open my eyes and see a swinging pendulum above my head that would turn into a bunch of tendril like things that were poking me, there was also just one black figure who would stare at me and it tried phasing through my face I couldn't tell if what it was, it didn't have a face, I was in the same room the tendrils would always be off to the left of my bed and be sprawling across a good portion of the room, I tried to Astral project last night and I haven't even closed my eyes for over a minute, my phone vibrated so I thought I'd check it so I opened my eyes and I could see it practically wide awake, so I turned the flashlight on for my phone and it disappeared. Then I was done for the night and went to sleep, my friend used Astra projection to make empty threats to he person that cursed us and she dug up little brown bags with the items in them and burned each piece individually, also is there a decently strong enough protection spell I could use so this doesn't happen again?
