Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales presents the concept of imprecation. Do you also ha

Spain Captain Salazar, who would make all pirates tremble with fear on hearing of his name, overly focused on wiping out all the pirates and at the end were defeated by Jack Sparrow. Salazar’s ship falsely sailed into the Devil’s Triangle and received imprecation – to never see the sunlight again.

The ship was long kept in the prisoned triangle until Jack gave out compass to someone else. It broke the curse and brought the ship back to the sunlight.

Although Salazar’s crew could therefore sail anywhere and conquer all enemies, they were still in curse from stepping on land.

This scene was truly fantastic. These navy ghosts were chasing and following Jack on the sea. When they came by the coast, though Jack stood within few meters, the moment their toes touched the ground, their bodies crumbled by curse.

Stories would always set up methods to break the curse. In the movie, they needed to get the trident in order to breaking all the curses on the sea. For such a powerful thing, it required a great amount of efforts to get the trident.

The scene was very imaginary. The ocean split into two, just like how Moses lead people cross the Red Sea. When the trident broke the curse, every ghosts in the water wall returned human and jumped into the cramped path between the split ocean.

As the mention of imprecation, it often reminds us on fairy tales as children. In our daily lives, some obsessed thoughts or unreasonable behaviors can also be seen as curses. For example, why do you repeat to check the gas taps and wash hands a thousand times; why you don’t feel happy about 98 points but only the perfect 100 points; why do you live poorly under tons of money in bank; and why do you need to be responsible for everything and get yourself exhausted?

Are there some strange behaviors and thoughts haunting and upsetting you, just like some curses that you cannot understand? Any curses, just like in the movie, can be broken.

If you focus too much on what’s disturbing you in front, something terrifying might occur. You will learn and wake up from the incident, just like curses on you were broken. However, you also don’t have to go through this. Because the cost is too high.

Seeing your constant patterns, just ask yourself: “Is this the only option I have?” and “Is there any other possibilities?”

All these require your awareness. Your need go back to the moment, hold your own power and present the creativity inside you……
