Hi Dear AriesJedi,
It is pretty interesting to have the opinion of a Gypsy person in this thread. Your people has a very well gained fame of to be gifted with a
tremendous extrasensorial perception and psychic powers.
Now, along History Curses have had their own separate chapter and many times very extensive, practically decisive to force the fall of tyranies of any
kind.
For instance the so called cursed Jewels are a very nice example, it is amazing to confirm that every body that had something to do with these
treasures that were stolen from religious temples by western adventurers or related with crimes paid a very high negative price: the story of the
Sanders emeralds, the Hope Diamond, the black Prince's ruby, the peregrina pearl, or the Black Orloff Diamond , that caused the fall or trembling of
entire dynasties, like the Borbon in France, the death of Charles I of England, the Collapse of the Habsburgs in Spain, or the Romanoff in Russia, is
really fascinating .
The world have seen only few years ago that this is not superstion, it happened curiously either in the begining of the XX century and once again in
the begining of the XXI century, and in both cases with mathematically precision.
At the begining of the XX century some very important jewels were stolen by an Austrian expedition to Burma, and there was by a Prince of the
Austrian-Hungary Empire, that was a younger brother of Francisc Josef and also of his so famous other brother Maximiliam.
The Jewels were brought to Austria and without any exception everybody that wore them paid with their lives. It is said that the stones were part of
the Treasury of an altar of a Buddhist Monastery and the monks cursed the foreigners that took them, saying that nobody never would have to enjoy them
for long.
The first to pay the consequences carried by the curse of the oriental treasure was of course the thief prince that was declared mentally ill by the
Emperor that wanted to take control of the fantastic treasure that they represented. The Second one was the Empress Sissy, that liked alot to use
them in public acts, unfortunately she didn't know of the curse and she fell assassesinated by a fanatic anarquist.
Next to her, also two more Austrian Archiduches paid with their lives for have taken part of the cursed treasure, one in Mayerling dying of apparent
overdosis of drugs, and the other in Sarajevo also assassinated by a fanatic servian.
Of course, The Austrian Kaiser Francisc Josef continue enjoying the jewels of the cursed treasure for a while with his second wife zita, until WWI
came to destroy for ever his very old empire and put end definitively to his dinasty.
But this so powerful curse didn't stop in Europe. It is said that Francisc Josef gave part of the jewels of the oriental cursed treasure to his
brother Maximilian, before he departed from Miramar to be crowned Emperor of Mexico. Everybody knows of the so sad end of this prince that was shoted
in the Bells hill of Querataro in 1867. His beloved wife, the empress Carlota also paid a tremendous price for her taste to wear those jewels,
since she became mad after Maximiliam death.
Finally the remaining stones were stored for about 30 years in the basement of the Chapultepec Castle, to be rediscovered by the so famous six times
reelected President of Mexico General Dn Porfirio Diaz that liked alot of them to allow his wife to wear the jewels in official acts. The
consequences were devastating for this man that affronted in 1911 the begining of the worst Revolution never happened in the western Hemisphere, that
send him, once considered the most popular leader of Mexico, to die in exile in France.
What happened with the Jewels of the cursed oriental treasure finally? well President Porfirio Diaz sent them in a steam boat across the gulf of
Mexico toward Europe, before to depart to his exile. It is said that the boat sunk in the middle of the gulf, when it was catched by a tropical
storm in its trip to New Orleans. Many people believe that the site on the bottom of the sea where the jewels remain is located very close to the
place few years ago a pipe of petroleum broke causing the worst spill of crude in the History.
The other famous case of a curse happened in the First decade of this XXI century was released also as a consequence of a brutal attack toward
Buddhist temples in Afghanistan. The monks cursed the Taliban terrorists when they destroyed all the great millenary Buddha sculptures of that
country, that were cultural patrimony of the Humanity. We now know that they couldn't survive too much to see that this action released over them,
and its entire country, the worst consequences due to the war happened against the US forces that put end to their fundamentalist regime.
Were all these events mere coincidences? that defy the law of probabilities? what do you think?
thanks for your attention,
