Joseph is venerated as a saint in the Catholic, Eastern Orthodox, Oriental Orthodox, Anglican, and Lutheran faithsIn Catholic and other traditions, Joseph is the patron saint of workers and has several feast days. He was also declared to be the patron saint and protector of the Catholic Church by Pope Pius IX in 1870, and is the patron of several countries and regions. Saint Joseph is the patron saint of a number of cities, regions and countries, among them the Americas, Canada, China, Mexico, Korea, Austria, Belgium, Peru, the Philippines and Vietnam. Joseph is also the patron saint of families, fathers and orphans, pregnant woman, married couples, carpenters, teachers, lawyers, laborers and working people, among others. What he has to do wih selling a house is beyond me but I`m sure someone else heard of it IP: Logged |

Maybe it is regional ?? Me being me, I wouldn`t bury a Saint Perhaps that`s my own imitational thinking. I do have a St Francisis of Assisi statue , patron ST. of animals and environment, in my garden ------------------ Christian, Jew, Muslim, Shaman, Zoroastrian, stone, ground, mountain, river, each has a secret way of being with the Mystery, unique and not to be judged.

You know, its funny, alot of real estate agents are "suggesting" these things now. I have a long lost aunt, on my father's side, never knew my father, really, and lost contact with his sis for most of my life till I found her on FB. When the for sale sign went up and I burried him I posted on FB that I did such... Now, my aunt is not very active on FB, but happened to see that post. She said she has used him twice with great success. Back and forth, come to find out our Polish relatives instructed her just how to bury him, so I dug him up that night and faced him north as she instructed. And by NO coincidence as she was reading the FB post, I was next door talking to my very, very religious neighbors about the whole thing and asked them if they ever heard of it. Regional, no, unknown yes. It's a big Catholic thing but one does not have to be Catholic to use him (tho I somewhat qualify if that was a requirement as my aunt is very Catholic and my father was as was my immigrant Polish paternal grandparents. I am open to anything and will try everything to sell my house! IP: Logged |
