This is very true. Rituals like this reach all the way to south Mexico. My mother's side of the family are native to the Caxcan tribe and believed in very similar things.

[@Nono38-jj1tk]

An innocent child being cursed?

[@rociolu1422]

All this things have been transformed with time and people added superstitions specially after the Catholic Church, "being cursed" is a catholic concept. Native Americans wisdom was based on science and also spirituality. Things I've head with the eclipse is that pregnant women should not be directly exposed to the eclipse for the baby's health, maybe because of the powerful energetic reasons that they mentioned in this videos. My grandfather was NA, and the church forced everyone into catholicism, so instead of him doing his healing work, he became an exorcist, he didn't believe in the church. He used to say that people was sick because of their own mind (although church made people believe it was "cursing" "devil" and all that bs).
