In addition to the segula of praying to Hashem after Chatzot, the night of Purim, there is also a segulah to get up early on the morning of Taanis Esther and say perek 22 of Tehillim 7 times before Alot Hashachar. After each time you say the perek, you make a bakasha, then say the tehillim again, bakasha again until you’ve said it 7 times. You do this after lighting a yartzeit candle l’kavod Mordechai HaTsaddik and one for Esther HaMalka. It is a sha-at ratzon, and can cancel all harsh decrees. Also, make a promise to Hashem that if He gives you a yeshuah, you will publicize it…similar to Esther.
