Ice Saint Toxic People Banishing Spell
In southern Germany, the eisbeilige - the iceman days - is the brief cooling trend in May. The "ice saints," Mamertius, Pancratius, and Servatus, were celebrated on May 11. Along with Cold Sophie, these "strong lords" are pagan figures who were turned into Christian saints were said to bring cold weather during planting season. They'd kill a budding tree or a field of sprouting wheat the minute they touched it with their frosty fingers or blew on it with their freezing breath. Farmers learned early on not to set plants out until after the ice saints had come and gone.
Sometimes we find ice saints in our lives, people whose presence chills our blood and infects our happiness with frostbite...... They're toxic people. We need to get them out of our lives......
