Saint Anthony Medal Amulet ~ Patron Saint of Lost Shit

Description Saint Anthony is known for helping those with the recovery and return of lost items. He is the Patron Saint of Lost Shit and invoking his help is a very effective way to quickly locate a misplaced objects. This is particularly useful if you are one who regularly forgets where you’ve put your stuff. Saint Anthony is one of my favourite saints. His feast is celebrated on June 13 during Gemini season making it appropriate that he possesses a dual nature. The official and the unofficial, the sacred and the profane, the Saint and the Folk Saint… Whenever I can’t find something you can hearing me chanting (yelling) the following incantation. “Tony, Tony, please come round! Somethings lost and must be found!” Variations of this rhyme exist and I have heard a few different ones over the years, but this one is my personal favourite. What if Anthony fails to find what you need? That depends on the one seeking his aid. Most simply let it go and accept their fate. But some take aggressive action against the saint. Essentially attempting to force him into action. Although this seems cruel it is an old practice that requires a statue of the saint. The statue is placed upside down in the back of a dark closet, until Anthony delivers what’s missing. Others seek to shame him by publicly hanging his statue upside down out in the open, so that all may witness his failure to act. Others kidnap Anthony’s baby… All his imagery usually features him holding a baby. Some Anthony statues are designed with removable babies. Should Anthony fail to materialize the requested item. The baby is removed until the saint delivers, essentially holding it ransom. Carry in your purse or pocket to aid in not loosing your shit. �� Oxidized Metal Saint Medal Made in Italy
