Anima Sola
(Lonely Soul)
The Anima Sola depicts a suffering person in chains amidst the flames of Purgatory. Because the person looks penitential and reverent, the image sends an ambiguous message of release from suffering. Due to this ambiguity, the Anima Sola may be prayed to for blessings and intercession in hastening the conclusion of a purgatorial sentence meted out to a relative or loved one who died while in sin. It can also be implored for aid in prayers or spells designed to send an enemy or ex-lover to either a literal or a figurative Purgatory.
