So yesterday my boss asked me to help one of our evening reporters cover the local impeachment protest and counter-protest (photogging). About a half hour before people started showing up, a homeless woman circled the plaza on a bike burning sage and trying to "bless" or "purify" (or whatever) the area before it got started. I felt disturbed by it but I couldn't get away cause I had to be there for work. Things got ugly last night so it certainly didn't work and in all likelihood invited demonic forces into the event.
A few hours later when I was done, I got back to my car and prayed a few decades of the rosary on the way home to reject that pagan ritual and whatever demonic forces might've been at work. After listening to Fr. Dave Nix's podcasts on New Age stuff and the demonic realities of it, I'm wondering if I shouldn't talk to my priest about what I may have been forced to come in contact with? Or is there just a prayer that I can say to further reject that paganism?
