Is there a way to protect against negative statuses, such as Cursed, Fear, Stone, etc? MM7 & 8 had "Protection from Magic", but I can't find anything similar here.

Thanks in advance!

To the best of my knowledge, no, there is no such status protection.

Resistance to negative statuses depends on Luck (bonus) and one other stat bonus or resistance, specific for a particular status:

Endurance - Weak, Asleep, Drunk, Diseased, Unconscious, Afraid
Personality - Cursed
Intellect - Insane
Poison resistance* - Poisoned
Magic resistance* - Paralyzed, Stoned, Dead, Eradicated, Drain SP, Aged

* - Luck bonus is added only if a character already has at least one point of resistance

Earth Magic--- but I rarely cast it. It never seemed to do much.

It's a different spell. The MM6 one raises your resistance to Magic, the MM7 & 8 one prevents one bad status from happening per point of skill. So you're garantueed to be safe.

Yes, there is. Plenty of items, including some good artifacts have protection from various statuses.

Protection from stone, sleep, disease, poison, insanity and paralysis are all found on items.

Very strange that noone else pointed this out...

EDIT: minor wording fix

More in 7 than 6.
Blackshire with its +30 fountain and 50 luck is the best way to avoid.
But as you pointed out that is a general protection.

They get more common as the game progresses.

I often go for protection from stone on my earth magic caster and protection from paralysis on my mind magic caster.
