St Philomena for Mental Illness
Posted: Wed Mar 23, 2011 10:48 am
I came across another Saint (other than Dymphna) that is prayed to for those that have a mental illness, Saint Philomena. Has anyone worked with her? Is she not popular in hoodoo? She sounds like a wonderful, kind saint that gets the job done. It is said she is powerful with God so she is good to have on our side and on our altars. I would like to know if Cat's teachings in the hoodoo course might touch upon this possible overlooked Saint? She almost sounds like a female counterpart of St Jude. I have some LM All Saints Oil that I was thinking to use on a candle for her. Would love to know if LM has a dressed and annointed candle for her?
Here is some research I found about her:
St Philomena the Wonderworker: As her name suggests Philomena is a wonderworker, her miracles and work stem from minor problems to major troubles. She does not judge or discriminate she simply gets the job done. She is incredibly kind and so wonderfully sweet and effective. Her Day of the week is Saturday and her candle is pink or green. She is also prayed to for preists and their work, conversion of wrong doers, expectant mothers, problems with children, destitute mothers, unhappiness in the home, sterility, the sick and mental illness. She is Patroness of desperate situations and powerful with God.
I cant find anything on Lucky Mojo and would love to know if they have a candle or information on her, I cant get the search on the LM site to work for me.
