ELI5: Explain Like I'm 5

Segula (Kabbalah)

Segulah is a fancy word used in Kabbalah, which is a mystical Jewish tradition. Think of it like a magic trick that helps people feel like they have a special connection to God and can make their wishes come true.

It can be something simple, like wearing a red string around your wrist or reciting a certain prayer at a certain time of day. Some people also use special herbs, stones, or other objects in their segulah.

The idea is that by doing this special action, God will be more likely to listen to your prayers and grant your wishes. It's important to remember, though, that segulah is not always proven to work and is not a substitute for hard work and effort. It's just a way of feeling more connected to God and having hope that things will turn out well.
