Gather freshly cut parsley and place it in a pan of water. Let it soak for nine minutes,

and then sprinkle the water throughout the house while visualizing a calm environment.

Peace will be restored.

TO ATTRACT CUSTOMERS TO A BUSINESS OR VISITORS TO A HOME

Make a fine powder out of some basil leaves and sprinkle them around the main

entrance to the home or place of business. It is believed that only good and friendly

people will enter, since it supposedly repels those who intend harm toward the workers

of a business or the occupants of a home.

SPELL TO RID ONESELF OF A BOTHERSOME SPIRIT

Say "What is dark be filled with light, remove this spirit from my sight."

Before starting place your hand before you, and start the flow of power out of your hand

and then say the words, letting the envisioned blue-white light from your power hand

fill the room or house or any other place that you might be.

TO PROTECT YOUR HOUSE

You need:

A whole head of Garlic 3 large 'iron' nails

9 pieces of White Thread (7 inches long each)

6 pieces each of Black Thread and Red Thread (7 inches long each)

Wax One White Egg Water and Wine

Twist or braid 3 white, 2 red and 2 black threads together,

melt a little wax and dip the threads so that it forms a stiff twine/wick like feel.

Do this two more times so you have 3 waxed braids.

Place the nails in a fire until they are red hot, while still hot (you can let them cool a little bit)

wrap each nail with a garlic leaf.

Then wind one of the waxed threads around each leave covered nail.

In a dish or bowl make a triangle with the nails and place it in a safe place (or your altar).

Place the egg in the triangle so it stands up, sprinkle with wine and water everyday.

PEACEFUL HOME

This spell is very good if there is a lot of turmoil or stress in the household.

Do the following spell, and while doing so, remember to focus on your intent for a peaceful

household. Sew a small pouch of lavender cloth. Place a small trinket in the pouch for each

member of your household. Add to this a pinch each of lavender, rose and chamomile, before

placing each pinch in the pouch, remember to hold it for a moment and REALLY focus,

finally, add a small amethyst. Now, anoint a lavender or pink candle with peace oil and then

light it. Sit in front of the candle and hold the pouch in your hands and whisper the following

chant over it softly 3 times:

Blessed Goddess, most gentle one,

calm my home for me.

Relieve all tension, send it far,

so from stress we shall be free.

Touch my family with peace and calm,

and the sweetest softest bliss,

bless my home, Great Gentle Goddess,

with your calming kiss.

Set the pouch with the candle. Allow the candle to burn down completely.

Hang the pouch in your home, preferably in the room where everyone gathers the most.

Whenever tension seems to build, repeat the above chant 3 times and envision peace

and tranquility radiating from the pouch and The Goddess.

BLESSING A NEW HOME, HOME CLEANSING

Home-cleansing methods are of great importance in African-American hoodoo folk-magic.

Here is a simple procedure for blessing a new home and ridding a house of any unwanted

spiritual influences.

Wash down the wood work and floors with Chinese Wash (or Van Van Oil in water) from back

to front and out the front door and throw the remaining wash water out the front door or in the front yard.

If there is no front yard, carry some of the wash water to the nearest street intersection or crossroads

and throw it to the East.

Then use a brand new broom to sweep the house from back to front and out the front door.

Some folks also like to sprinkle Van Van Powder at the front threshold and sweep that away from the house.

After cleaning as above, put down pinches of salt in the corners of each room or, if you

are in a hurry, four pinches of salt at the four outside corners of the house.

TO HONOR YOUR HOUSEHOLD SPIRITS

When presenting your house spirits with offerings of incense,

candles or what not you can say this little chant:

"Wraith of the house, Take heart and live,

To every chamber This light I give,

To every corner This breath I send

Approve and favor my willing hand."

TO FREE A HOUSE FROM HAUNTING

"The Presence that stands Upon the stairs

The unseen hands That move the chairs.

The lights that play Across the wall,

The stains that stay, The plates that fall,

The mist , the chill, The wandering scents

This gentle spell must speed them hence.

At midnight, set A table neat,

With cup and plate, And wine and meat,

Invite the ghost To sit and feast,

As any host Should urge a guest.

Presently, clear The meal away,

Then open the door and softly say-

"Quick or dead, Thou art fed,

Cease to grieve And take thy leave"

Bid him depart But should he remain

Be calm, take heart And feast him again.

HOME PURIFICATION

Incense:

1 tablespoon pine needles 1 tablespoon juniper 1 tablespoon cedar

Make sure all ingredients are completely dry.

Grind ingredients together and burn on self-igniting charcoal.

Spirits of the corners,

Winds of the quarters,

You who stand watching,

And you who hear my voice,

Guard well my home tonight

HOME PURIFICATION

When you feel negativity building up in your home, or the occupants are not getting along:

Use Sandalwood, Dragons blood or (if you can stand the smell) Patchouli Incense.

Make certain that you carry your censer or a stick of incense into each room.

Use this in conjunction with a chant and meditation.

It's also a good idea to sprinkle sea or kosher salt on the carpet, then vacuum it up

immediately after the ritual.

THE BROOM PURIFICATION

Before dawn, take a branch from any tree.

Thank the tree for its gift and leave a coin or semi-precious stone at its base in payment.

Next, obtain several brightly colored flowers on long stalks.

Tie these flowers to the branch to fashion a sort of broom, then sweep the floor in every room

of the house, visualizing the flowers of the broom absorbing negativity and "evil" as you work.

Then, still before sunrise, leave the broom at the crossroads.

Traditionally this ritual is repeated at the first of each month.

SPELL TO LOCK/HOLD DOORS SHUT

You need to start by meditating before hand on the effect of the spell for at least 15 minutes.

Then, to cast, you sprinkle holy water mixed with salt and powdered iron, in front of the door

that you want to lock. Then place your hands on the door and concentrate your energies

going down your right arm, going through the door and back into your left arm.

Then you start chanting:

Portal be mine,

Become one with my mind,

I hold thee fast, to make to last,

open you not, as I weave the knot,

of my power from within.

Keep chanting this as you build up power, and imagine the circle of energy

(right arm through door back into left arm) getting faster and faster.

Then upon release, visualize a green field of energy coming up in front of the door.

TO BAR NEGATIVE ENTRY

1 oz. (25 grams) Ground Cumin 1 lb. (500 grams) Sea Salt

the corners and doorways of your home to purify, defeat all wicked conjuring, and

prevent evil forces from entering:

poke root (which can also be added to your bath or cleaning water)

TO RID A ROOM OF EVIL

where out of view but still near your doorway.

TO GET AN APARTMENT / HOUSE WITH WHAT YOU WANT

1 green candle 1 gold candle an incense of cinnamon & patchouli ads of apartments or homes

Time: Waxing Moon or Full Moon, I actually did the spell on a couple different days.

Sunday seemed to be the best though.

Find ads in the newspaper or rental books with what you are looking for.

Place the ads on your altar. Place a green and gold candle with the ads.

I used green and gold because green is for the earth and I designate the element earth with

home, gold was for the money needed to have a down payment for the place and for success.

Light the candles and an incense made of cinnamon and patchouli. Say the following:

Element of Fire, The light that you give,

Illuminate for me, The place where I'll live.

Let the candles burn out. When you look at places you want to live look for the brightest one!

PROTECTION FROM NEGATIVE ENERGIES AND NEGATIVE FEELINGS

Before you continue with any other spells, you must ensure that you are in a negative free

zone, and this does not only include the circle, but all other parts of your residence.

You must be cleansed spiritually and then rid all negative energies.

To start, a simple thing to do is as follows:

Charge a pewter dragon's claw which holds a crystal or glass ball with your personal

energies after meditating.

Place it above an entrance door into your house or apartment.

By doing this, it will ensure that no more negative energies can enter your house whether

cast, sent or roaming.

While burning the incense that best assists your concentration and energy channeling

Then visualize a triple circle of purplish light around your body while chanting:

I am protected by your might,

O gracious goddess, day and night.

Remove all spirits Who don't belong here!"

Call upon your highest teacher, angel, or God to clear the spirit.

To increase the potency of this spell, burn sage incense and white candles.

While you meditate after the chant, know that the atmosphere around you has been

cleared of all evil spirits.

PROSPERITY CHARM

Put a sprig of basil, a magnet and five small coins above your doorway to invite prosperity!

A WARDING

The following is an easy warding ritual for your home or just one room.

You must admit that there are those who would use magic in unwise ways.

A simple way I've found of dealing with such attempts is to ward a room you work in, or your home.

It is similar to casting a circle except that it is as permanent as you want it to be.

Be sure that you won't be disturbed while casting the ward or you will have to start over.

Nothing is required to do this but you may use any props necessary to make you most comfortable.

After ensuring you won't be disturbed, ground and center (use any form you wish, this is a

very adaptable ritual). Cast your circle, using the walls as the four Quarters (again use

whatever method you are most comfortable with).

After the circle is cast you will do something similar to circle casting.

Invoke the Quarters again this time asking for protection of the area being warded against

all negative influences from being able to ever enter the area involved.

As you invoke each Quarter visualize a wall of energy completely covering the wall involved

sealed by a floor to ceiling pentacle. On the wall/s with a door visualize a smaller version of the

energy wall and pentacle so that entering and leaving will not affect the integrity of the working.

After each wall, the floor, and the ceiling are sealed be sure to cleanse the area to ensure that

no negativity was trapped inside the room (any method is acceptable).

When done thank the Quarters for their help and dismiss them.

PROTECT YOUR ABODE WHILE YOU ARE TRAVELLING

To prevent theft: gather as many keys as you have in your house should be the # of doors

that you have in your house)

Moving slowly through your house, take a key, touch it to the door and say:

"Lock out thieves in the night.

Lock out thieves in the light.

Lock out thieves out of sight."

Repeat this until you have touched each and every key to each door. Then, tie them with a

red ribbon and hang over front door. Remember to visualize them keeping away thieves!

Remember, never leave your bed empty for too long.

Doing so may cause unwanted negative energy to settle in your place.

When heading off, clean the bed and tuck a broom into it, bristles on the pillow.

If you are in a strange place you might want to bring along a blue candle.

Burning blue while you sleep will help protect you. Mirrors are great protection in the

bedroom, as it repels negative influences. So put a small one on the headboard of

your bed, or at least facing the door, and you should stay safe throughout the night.

SPELL TO TRAP AN EVIL SPIRIT (IN A JAR)

This traps an evil entity or evil spirits and prevents any harm being done.

--Salt water - 1 part Sea salt to 8 parts of spring water.

--1 dried Rose 13 Rose Thorns 1 Small Glass Jar + a tightly fitting lid

Put the Rose Thorns into the jar one at a time and as you do this and drop one in,

chant the following words each time:

"Thou Demon presence. Be no more!"

Crush up the Thorns in the jar and then crush up the Rose petals and add them to the jar,

slowly add the salt water. Keep the jar open overnight.

The next morning before the sunrise close the lid. All the evil should now be trapped inside the jar.

Cover the jar with a cloth and bury it far away from the house in a place that has no buildings nearby.

BANISHING NEGATIVE ENERGIES AND ELEMENTS FROM YOUR HOUSE

The idea is to lie in your token meditational spot - you know where it's nice, cozy, silent and

you're sure not to be disturbed for at least half an hour. and build up some processional

energy, try burning some frankincense incense or whatever works for you.

No circle is required. when you think you've reached a highly charged, powerful state

envision a cone of power going anti-clockwise (for banishing) like a cyclone above your

house, slowly bring the cone (which I think is supposed to be upside down - as in big part

on the bottom) down into your house and envision all the little nasty energies being taken

up into the cyclone squealing and kicking and being enveloped by the giant cone.

Drive the cone down below your house and deep into the earth and let all the little nasty

creatures out there, once you are sure nothing is clinging take the cone back up into your

house and go through the process again, a little bit stronger and more determined this time,

so as any smart little things can be washed out in the rinse cycle (lol).

Empty them deep into the earth again and let the cone rise out of your house and disperse -

Relax and feel the positive energy and the lack of negativity in your house.

Focus on these thoughts and keep the negative thoughts far from your head or they will

feed on it and possibly come back.

HOME BLESSING

Who comes to me, I keep.

Who goes from me, I free.

Yet against all I stand

who do not carry my key.

Use this as an inscription over a threshold with three pine cones hung loose to blow in the wind.

THE CAULDRON AND THE KNIFE

Just before going to bed, fill a cauldron (or iron bucket, bowl or pot) with water and place it inside

your house near the front door. Take a very sharp knife or Athame and place it point-down

into the water, saying:

"Into the water I place this blade,

To guard against the thief and shade.

May no flesh nor astral shell

Enter this place wherein I dwell"

This is a good protection spell, and can be performed every evening. In the morning, remove

and dry the knife, and place it somewhere safe. Then, without touching it, pour the water

outside, (or down the drain if necessary) and put the cauldron away. It probably wouldn't be

a good idea to do this spell if you're expecting company, as it could be dangerous (and wet).

You can do this at each door if desired, and protects against more than corporeal forms.

SPELL TO PROTECT YOUR HOME

Go outside and collect pebbles from anywhere you feel like such as a mountain, a stream,

a beach, etc or many different places. Then take them home and find an earthenware pot

or some other natural material container and place it in front of you. Cast a circle if you wish

and then take the first stone, say

"Little stone, oh so small, that comes from.... (place you got it)

Protect this house with your power,

and turn away darkness at all hours"

Envisage a large bubble of white light that deflects negativity emanating from the stone

and then place it in the pot. Repeat with the rest of the stones and then finally place the

pot in the place you feel it belongs.

SPELL TO LOCK OUT ANYTHING NASTY

You need to start by meditating before hand on the effect of the spell for at least 15 minutes.

Then, to cast, you sprinkle holy (consecrated to the Lord and Lady) water mixed with salt and

powdered iron; (try potteries to get this) Stand in front of the door that you want to lock...or in

the case of a person the 3rd eye point which is between the eyebrows just above their level.

Then place your hands on the 3rd chakra point or door and concentrate your energies

going down your right arm and going through the door and back into your left arm.

Then you start chanting over and over:

"Portal be controlled and mine,

Become as one with my mind,

I hold thee fast, To make this last,

open you not, as I weave the knot,

of my power from within."

Keep chanting this as you build up power, and imagine the circle of energy (right arm through

door back into left arm) getting faster and faster. Then upon release, visualize a green field of

energy coming up in front of the door or the 3rd eye chakra.

HOME CLEANSING

This is a great spell used to clean your home of negative energy.

Spell performed preferably during a waning moon but can be cast at any needed time for a

cleansing during any moon phase. Any evening after sunset, Light the end of a sagebrush stick.

Have a glass of water and a bowl Containing a shallow pool of water nearby.

Blow out the flame and blow on the embers Of the stick to increase the smoke.

In each room of your house, Blow smoke in each of the four directions.

Blow gently upon the burning stick As you face each wall of the room.

Say aloud:

I clear this space of all negativity

And of the energy of people or things

That have no purpose in this household.

I ask that this clearing be gentle

And that all of this energy be returned to its source.

When you are done with your whole house, Return to the room you started in.

Take the stick and dip it into the shallow Bowl of water to douse the embers.

Take a sip of water from your glass.

Say aloud:

This home is a gentle and supportive environment.

I offer gratitude to the universe that this is done.

So it be And so it is.

If your household is being rocked by disturbances from an outside source, gather

freshly cut parsley from the garden (or buy fresh parsley at a store) and place it in

a pan of water. Let it soak for nine minutes, then sprinkle the water throughout the

house while visualizing a calm environment. Harmony should be restored.

For in-house disturbances, heat three cups of water until just boiling.

UNWANTED VISITOR SPELL

To get rid of unwanted visitors you should place a broom by the front door.

do this without being noticed, so much the better.

This will speed such people on their way and give you some peace of mind.

TO CHANGE YOUR HOUSEHOLD LUCK

If you have terrible luck in your daily household affairs and a purification hasn't helped,

try this ancient spell. Take an old spoon (it doesn't have to be clean) and walk through your

house slowly, visiting each room. Visualize the spoon absorbing the house's malaise.

Then walk to a crossroads and bury the spoon there. Don't look back as you return home.

Things should start to perk up.

ROOM CANDLE CLEANSE

You need: White candle and holder Salt

Place the candle in the middle of the room. Sprinkle the salt in a circle

deosil around the candle. Light and say:

Creature of wax Creature of fire

Listen to me Hear my desire

Cleanse this room By the power of three

And blast away all negativity

With harm to none So shall it be

Leave to burn for at least 1 hour.

ROOM BLESSING/CLEANSING/PROTECTION SPELL

This is a bare-bones, generic spell.

Use when the energies in your home or in a particular room start feeling "off" or negative.

This spell can be tweaked to suit your particular method of working or use as is.

You will need:

Small cauldron or other fire-proof bowl for burning herbs - one that you are able to carry.

Your favorite protection oil (my recipe follows)

Clearing herbs such as sage, cedar, rosemary, etc.

Charcoal tablet (a half tablet would suffice)

Matches

This spell uses the pentagram and the 5 elements.

Notice I say "From" the North, South, East & West.

This is to align yourself with the Elements - you are one with them as you state your call.

Trace the pentagram starting from the top point - in this spell you are invoking Spirit.

Meditate before you begin - make sure you're in the right state of mind to proceed.

An Alpha state is the best.

The Spell:

Light charcoal in bowl/cauldron and when burning, drop a pinch or two of your clearing

herbs into the cauldron. Take a minute to take in the energy of the herbs.

Carry the vessel around the room - paying special attention to corners, closets, and places

negative energy seems to linger. Project a clear, clean, white light with your mind and say:

"By my will I banish all darkness and let in the light." (repeat around the room)

When you've thoroughly cleansed the room, return to the center and put down your cauldron.

Take up the oil and go to the North.

Trace a pentagram on the wall (window sill, door frame, etc.) Say:

From the North I call to Thee.

Blessings of the Spirit Be upon this place.

Go to the East and say: From the East I call to Thee.

Blessings of the Spirit Be upon this place.

Continue to the South and West, changing the blessing accordingly.

When complete, return to the center of the room and place more herbs on the charcoal.

Stand still a bit and feel the energy of the room/space.

Again, project white light outward, mentally filling all the nooks and crannies.

When the energy feels right to you say:

This room is sealed Protected from harm.

Light replaces darkness

As I will, so mote it be.

Note: This spell can obviously be expanded for an entire house.

Just begin in the center of the house instead of the center of the room.

If you are uncomfortable calling on "Spirit" for protection, you can substitute the

name of your Deity.

SPELL FOR INTERNAL WELL BEING AND LUCK IN A NEW HOME

Timing at the Waxing moon. Also gather things you need for the second part of the Ritual Spell.

1. Obtain a vial (about 100mL) of water from a steadily flowing river and put aside.

or rain water or bottled mineral water or sea water will do.

2. Light two blue candles and place at the north and south points of a circle cast in your main living room.

Sweep the floor and vacuum it clean beforehand... You are creating Sacred Space

3. Light two white candles and place at the east and west points of the same circle.

4. Scatter freshly picked lavender and crushed leaves and petals of an white or an iceberg rose evenly

around the perimeter of the circle and sit within it, facing the north point.

5. Cross arms loosely over the chest and focus your awareness on the breath entering your body

and slowly spreading through it.

6. Return your focus slowly to your environment and extinguish the candles using the river

water, kneeling before each as you do so, in the order north-west-east-south.

You'll need a candle to represent yourself in whatever color you think appropriate,

a grey candle, a black candle and an orange candle.

Light the candle that represents yourself and say: 'This is me, me in all things'.

Light the black candle and say: 'This is all the bad luck that has dragged my footsteps.

Trouble, disappointments and tears are here. This bad luck now leaves me forever'.

Light the grey candle and say: 'All that was bad is neutralized. All my bad luck is dissolved'.

Light the orange candle and say: 'This is the energy coming my way, to get my life moving and

speed up the change'. Sit quietly for a while and visualize the negative energies being whisked

into the grey candle and dissolved into empty nothingness.

Visualize the orange candle drawing good energy and good luck towards you, see the air stirring

about with possibilities and opportunities. Let the candles burn down completely (take the usual

safety precautions). Now close your circle. You may like to "smudge" each room with by

burning sage In a small, bundle and also to sprinkle blessed and consecrated salt and

water in each room of the house as you say a blessing and prayer asking for a happy life

and good luck in your new dwelling.

HAPPY HOME SPELL

If moon is travelling from new to full, you want to bring love into the home.

If the moon is travelling from full to new, you want to push negativity out from the home.

Take half an onion, close your eyes, saying:

"I empower you to collect all negativity In this house."

Imagine the onion turning into a giant vacuum cleaner, sucking up all the negative

energy in your house. Place the onion on the window ledge of the room where most

of the family usually gathers. Hold a clove of crushed garlic in your hand, close your

eyes and say the above chant. Do the same visualization.

If a particular person is causing trouble, take a clove and place it under the rug, under

that person's bed or in a place where they often sit. If there is no one causing the problem,

place cloves of crushed garlic all around the outside doorstep of your home.

Take some carpet deodorizer (granules or spray) and sprinkle around the house

(after first consecrating them!) say: "I empower you to collect all negativity In this house."

Vacuum up the deodorizer. Write every loved one's name with a red marker on a heart

cut out of white paper. Circle all the names with one big circle say:

"I encircle all I love with positive energy, Healing and peace.

Let no evil enter our home."

Hold the paper in your hands, close your eyes and visualize your family sitting together

and very happy. Say:

"With harm to none

May all astrological correspondences be correct for this working,

And may this spell not reverse

Or place upon me any curse.

So mote it be!"

SPELL TO RESTORE PEACE TO AN UNHAPPY HOME

Tools:

Black candle Astral candles of those in the home Yellow-green candle

Light blue candle Deity candles - e.g. white and black, or Gold and Silver

Incense- frankincense is good Votive candle - white is good

Method:

Light Deity Candles and the incense.

Sit and meditate on the goal to be accomplished.

Light the Astral Candles of those in the home, which are placed approximately 13"

from each other. Think hard of each person, saying as the Candles are lit,

"This candle represents <Name> .

As it burns, so burns his/her spirit."

Write down the faults and problems that beset the home. Discuss them with the others.

Then light the Votive Candle, visualizing the start of a new day and new turn for the better,

e.g. visualize turning over an old brown leaf and finding it green and vibrant on the other side.

Light the Yellow-Green Candle (for Anger, and Jealousy and Discord).

Say, "Here burns away all negative emotions from <Name> and <Name>, leaving

only love and happiness. It is in our house; it is all about us. There is tranquillity in our home.

Peace and love abound and are with us. For true happiness now is known.

Understanding and love are there in abundance; discord and chaos are fled.

For be it ever thus, that as patience and love do grow and prosper,

so barren become the fields of doubt and distress.

Happiness is the light that burns and darkness all away is sent.

The home is peace; peace is the home."

Meditate for 3-5 minutes on settling the disturbed conditions in the home.

Now hold up the paper containing the problems, and burn it in the Votive Candle.

Visualize all the problems vanishing. Move the Astral Candles closer to each other.

Light the Black Candle (for Destruction of Negativity).

Repeat the words, then meditate for 3-5 minutes on the problems having gone.

Move the Astral Candles further closer to each other.

Light the Light Blue Candle (for Peace and Understanding).

on the new peaceful condition of the home.

Move the Astral candles even closer to each other.

Hug and kiss each other and call out "Hurrah" or other such words

expressing joy and relief and victory.

Then extinguish the Votive Candle, and then the Astral and Day candles.

Note: The spell is even more powerful if it is repeated on 3 consecutive days,

with different day candles, and letting the Astral candles touch each other only

at the third incantation on the third day. There is no need to write down the

problems on the second or third day. However, the spell may be only performed

once, in which case, the Astral candles should touch other at the third incantation.

The ashes of the "problem paper" can be gleefully flushed down the toilet.

only the aromatic tea. As you go, visualize bright light pouring from your hands into every

area that houses shadows, saying,

"Where light dwells, all darkness flee;

Spirit ghost go towards the light,

ELEMENTAL PURIFICATION OF STORE OR DWELLING

This rite utilizes the powers of the four elements (Earth, Air, Fire and Water) to cleanse

the store or dwelling. At a time when the business is closed, assemble the main Members

of the group and on a table assemble the following items:

a bowl of seal salt an incense burner or smudge stick a white candle a bowl of holy water

Light the incense and the candle. Stand before the table and open

yourself to the dwelling. Feel its energies. Really tune into any

impressions you receive. After a moment, hold your hands over the

assembled tools and say something like the following (Feel Free To Improvise):

"I Charge you, tools of the elements to sweep my dwelling clean of

all ill and bane. This is my will, so mote it be."

(several other items needed)

a wand a black candle a white candle a crystal (cleansed prior to use)

With the wand say:

"We dedicate these tools to the goddess and god to help us in our work."

Touch the wand to the sea salt, the holy water, the incense or

smudge, the crystal, the lighted white candle, and say:

"We dedicate these tools to the god and goddess and the five

elements. We dedicate them to helping us in our work of healing

meditation, divination and inner growth."

This next part of the ritual is to banish any negative energies around and in the store or dwelling.

The group forms a procession walking counter clockwise through every room in the store or

dwelling, carrying the smudge stick and the lit black candle saying:

"We banish from this place all pain and negativity. We neutralize negative or mischievous

entities from this place. We send you to the goddess and the god, to heal you and take you

where you need to go."

If you have cedar branches available, place one in each room before you leave it.

Now, go outside the dwelling and with your procession again walking counter clockwise,

repeat the verse again still smudging and burning the black candle, walk around the dwelling.

If available place cedar branches in front of doorways.

Now put out the black candle and smudge stick (incense).

You are still outside the dwelling. Turn clockwise in the procession...light a white candle...

and burn sweet smelling incense.

Walk around the dwelling and say:

"We invoke to this place protection, prosperity, peace, healing, wellness, and creativity."

Place a flower or crystal at each corner of the dwelling.

Now the procession re-enters the dwelling, and again walking clockwise

in each room with the white candle and sweet incense repeats the

above verse. If you have a flower or crystal to leave in each room as

you exit, do so. The group forms a circle around the table where you

first began. One person (the one in charge) leads the group. She

takes the dish of salt, and moving clockwise, leads the group

throughout each room saying:

"By the powers of Earth, I cleanse this dwelling."

The group is to follow her and repeat what she says.

Make sure to do all the corners, windows, doorways of each room as

you go. Imagine, seeing the salt burning away negativity as you

sprinkle and toss it. Your purification will be as strong as your visualization.

Next, set the salt down and pick up the censor or incense, carry it

from room to room (The same route you used with the salt...walking

clockwise...group following and repeating) Be sure to hold it before

all windows and doors, and in the corners of each room. Visualize the

smoke clearing away all negativity and evil. Say the following:

"By the powers of Air, I cleanse this place."

Once you have walked through the whole dwelling, return the censor or

incense to the table. Take the lit white candle on the same route.

Again, visualize moving clockwise and holding the flame before

windows and doors, seeing it shining forth with magical power,

burning away negativity. As you go say:

"By the powers of Fire, I cleanse this place."

Replace the candle on the tale and take up the bowl of holy water.

Sprinkle the holy water throughout the house, in every corner, and at

exits and entrances. Toss some drops at and through windows. See and

know that the holy water is washing away ills with a tidal wave of

magical power. Say the following:

"By the powers of Water, I cleanse this place."

Set the bowl of holy water on the table. Stand for a few moments and

feel the difference in the dwelling. It should feel calmer, more

peaceful, fresh and clean. If not, repeat the ritual Group again

forms a circle around the table. You will need four candles to

represent the four elements/directions, yellow for East/Air, Red for

the South/Fire, Blue for the West/Water, Green for the North/Earth.

Also, if you wish you may use a white candle to represent the Holy Spirit.

Each member is to say a prayer, asking for the blessings of the

Goddess and God, asking for the qualities they want for the dwelling.

The leader of the group will light each candle as she says: "I call

upon you, powers of the Air, to witness this rite and to guard this

place." (light the yellow candle) "I call upon the Powers of Fire, to

witness this rite and to guard this place." (Light the red candle) "I

call upon the Powers of Water, to witness this rite and to guard this

place." (Light the blue candle) "I call upon the powers of Earth to

witness this rite and guard this place." (light the green candle)

"I call upon the Powers of the Holy Spirit to witness this rite and

to guard this place." (Light the white candle)

Leader says: "Today we dedicate this place to the God and Goddess,

for our protection, safety, peace and creativity. In this ritual we

have banished anything that could be negative and have invited

instead all prosperity and love."

"We have invited Earth, who protects all women, children and the

dwelling. We have invited Fire who protects the dwelling, home and

hearth. We have invited water, who gives abundance. We have invited

Spirit, who is of the deities and the Earth and who protects all peoples."

You may want to add blessings, poems, or chants to be done by members of the group.

A SPELL OF ATTRACTION TO SELL A HOUSE

As with any magical working, the first step is to do the mundane work:

List the house with a good agent, clean it from top to bottom, put a sign out

front and an ad in the paper, and tell everyone you know that you're selling it.

Assuming that's done, begin your ritual by obtaining a green candle.

Green was a traditional color for prosperity spells long before they decided to make U.S.

currency that color: It symbolizes a green and fruitful harvest.

Now, go outside your house to some spot where you can see the house but not be

disturbed (i.e. standing in the middle of the road is not recommended). It's best to do

this at a time when the street is relatively quiet.

If possible, face the house from the same side that a prospective buyer would when

seeing it for the first time. Sit or stand comfortably, holding the candle.

Close your eyes, relax and take a few minutes to begin breathing regularly

and establish your concentration. (If you've ever done regular meditation or prayer,

establish that same frame of mind.)

Now visualize the house through a stranger's eyes. In your mind, envision brilliant

sunlight, whether it's there in real life or not. Mentally walk from the driveway to the

front door (or whatever entrance is closest), then into the house.

As you do this, envision the house as the most beautiful it can be. If the paint is

clean and white, envision it positively gleaming. If there are plants in the yard,

envision them not just thriving, but seeming to beckon the passer-by, reaching their

little green selves up into that same brilliant light.

In your mind's eye, walk through the entire house with the eyes of a stranger,

dwelling on every good point it has. Do not let thoughts of its flaws disrupt your c

oncentration (this is the tough part). That same brilliant sunlight pours through every

window and door. See it fill up each room as you enter.

When you have been through the entire house, go back the way you came. Envision

the light from each room pouring into your mind, through your body, and out through

your hands into the candle. Like a battery, the candle will absorb this light energy.

Take a few moments in each room to let this happen. (There's a lot of light; it won't

diminish in the room when it pours into you.)

Now mentally go out through the same door and stand in the driveway, seeing the house

covered with brilliant light. Again, feel the light that surrounds the house pour into you,

and from you into the candle.

When you're done, continue to sit or stand for a few moments with your eyes shut,

and let any excess energy that remains in your body flow naturally into the ground.

Then open your eyes.

Light the candle at an appropriate time - the night before a showing might be good.

A Witch would probably wait for the full moon (a time of bounty) or the first quarter moon

(a time for new beginnings). An astrological magician might do so on a Monday

(the day of the moon) or a Thursday (the day of Jupiter, the Bestower).

As you light the candle, intone the words of the spell:

"Fill my home with energy, that it may bring me prosperity.

Light and beauty fill my home, That its new owners soon may come."

Let the candle burn all the way down. (I hope you didn't get one of those 15-hour ones!)

What this visualization does is to fill the house with positive energy.

Buyers respond to this energy whether they're aware of it or not.

By dwelling on all your home's good points, you've filled those places

in the house with special energy so they won't be overlooked.

Also: Before each showing, subtly scent the house with cinnamon - incense, potpourri,

maybe one of those lamp rings. Besides being a prosperity herb, cinnamon's aroma makes

people think of home cooking, which will make them want to settle down there.

HOUSE CLEANSING

If you can identify the actual spirit, locate the center point of the house, and standing there

take a cup of red wine. After each of the following statements take a sip of wine,

and drain the cup after the last direction.

Facing east:

Lady of love and power and all blessings, breathe love into this house, fill air with good.

Through you, in you, I bless this house.

Facing south:

Lady of love and living and all blessings, warm this house with comfort, make whole its hearth.

Through you, in you, I bless this house.

Facing west:

Lady of tide and time and every blessing, let every hour flow sweetly in this house.

Through you, in you, I bless this house.

Facing north:

Lady of strength and riches and all blessings, make this house strong and filled with earthly good.

Through you, in you, I bless this house.

Walk around the house saying the following in each room (including attic and cupboards):

Be comforted. All is well. Now you are blessed. You have life to nurture and nurture you.

Be calm. Be easy. Be comforted. You are blessed.

If you can identify the spirit, say the following in the room most affected:

It is time to leave here. All is well. There is nothing here for you. You must be gone.

Go now, go, complete your passing. Go, and with our blessing and farewell.

Often commanding any evil spirits to leave at once, in the name of your deity three times works well.

After this you could get a smudge stick of sage, or sage incense, and perform a house blessing

carrying it deosil around the property and from room to room, paying special attention to doorways,

crevices and windows, and also any places that `feel` cold.

As you do this with words from a house blessing, scatter salt and water which has been

consecrated and blessed. Have windows and doors open as you bless the house.

Salt scattered along windowsills and doorways will prevent any entity re-entering the property.

HOUSE GUARDIANS

House Guardians Supplies:

Representations of your guardians for the number of doors in you house.

If you have a garage attached to your house, just use a representation for the door in

your house to your garage unless someone spends a lot of time in the garage, then use

it for the garage door. The representations can be anything you'd like pictures, statues,

some kind of craft, etc. Usually, it is best if you can hang the representation by or across

from the door, but it is not necessary. We have our house guardian statues

(two small gargoyles) sitting on top of a bookcase in the living room.

Putting them near the doors is just for your mind to reaffirm that they are protecting the home,

but if you feel comfortable placing them somewhere else, then do.

A cleansed white candle for each guardian.

A sage smudge stick or other cleansing incense like sandalwood or just sage in its raw form.

Before calling house guardians to guard your home, you should give your home a good cleansing.

Take the smudge stick (be sure you have a bowl to catch the ashes) and begin at the front door.

Light the smudged and say a few words such as:

"As I walk this house May it be cleansed of all negativity"

Start walking around the house clockwise.

Circle the smudge counter clockwise or just in a straight line in front of you towards the walls.

Feel all negative energy flowing out, pushing it through the walls.

When you come to a window, bar it by literally pulling the smudge stick back and forth over the

window like you are tracing bars on it. Say something like:

"I bar this portal from allowing anything to enter"

Ignore inside doors, like doors to bedrooms. Go into all the rooms and bar all windows.

When you come to an outside door, do not bar it.

Draw a circle around the doorframe three times saying something like:

"May no negative energies enter. If a negative person enters,

May they leave their Negativity outside"

If you have stairs, when you come to them, go up and do the other floor (s) then

come back down and finish the lower floor.

You should always end the cleansing right back where you started, at the front door.

When you get back to the door, say a finalizing comment like:

"This house is cleansed. So mote it be"

If you have a storage attic, one you can't climb into very well, bar the entrance to it and just

make sure that anyone who goes up there wears a protection amulet or has their shields up.

Now take your house guardian representations and the candles to the place your family spends

most of its time together. In most families, it is the dining room table, or other place you eat your food.

Set a candle before each representation. Now, spirits are everywhere in every house and you are

simply calling a few who would like to help protect your home. That is why it is important to

cleanse the house first so no unwanted spirits are there. Light the first candle having in mind

which door you want the guardian to protect. Say something like:

"I welcome a spirit of this house to Guard and protect all who dwell here"

Repeat this with the other guardians if you have more than one. When you are done, take a

moment to meditate with them, then take them to their designated positions within the house

and extinguish the candles. These candles are to be used only to call upon the guardians.

You should introduce the family, including all pets to the guardians.

To do this, light their candles and call them, always where you called upon them in the first place.

Then introduce your family one at a time. If you have a spouse who wishes not to participate,

then tell the guardians that s/he does belong in the house and to protect them as well.

You can call the guardians at any time in the above manner. It is also good to meditate with them.

Light the candles, call them, then meditate and you will see and hear them.

It is a good idea to get to know them. On May Day, the Romans would do a ritual for

their house guardians. So on this day, do something extra special for them. If you are

going to have company for more than a few days, tell the guardians. The guardians will

then protect them also. Always leave offerings out for the guardians when you call them,

when you feel they have done something good for you, and on the Sabbats and Esbats.

These offerings can be a small dish of left over food and drink from dinner.

Put it in a place where pets and children cannot reach it. In the morning, you will find the

food there, but the essence of the food, its nutrition and often times its taste, will be gone.

Anytime you are going to do something different in the house, inform the guardians first.

If you are expecting a child, getting a new pet, redecorating, or just having a party,

tell them out of respect so they are not wondering what is going on!

The most important thing to remember about your guardians is that they normally will

stay in the house you called them in. If you move, tell them and tell them their services

will no longer be needed.

AN HERBAL PROTECTION SPELL

Get a piece of white cloth. None of that made-from-plastic junk.

And, thank the Goddess, you don't have to iron it, so make it cotton.

Then cut it into a seven inch square. Yes, seven. Numbers are important to magic.

No cheating! Get some basil, dill, and fennel. There you go again.

What do you mean, you don't have any fennel? Okay, okay, buddy, don't lose it.

You can use a lot of protective herbs in this one.

The important thing is to choose three herbs. Not two. Not four.

It's the number thing again. Use any three of these: basil, dill, fennel, St. John's Wort

(empty one of your "feel good" caplets!), rosemary, tarragon, horehound, vervain.

Mix your herbs in an earthenware bowl. Hum a nice protection tune.

Then again, you don't have to hum, but, hey, why not? Gently mix your herbs up.

You did grab only a little bit of each of three didn't you? You only need a tad.

You are using a bowl that isn't that icky plastic stuff or creepy aluminum, aren't you?

Lay your cloth on the Altar. Take the typewriter off first if you're using a typing table.

These herbs don't necessarily protect your keys from sticking! Put your herbs --

all mixed nicely, thank you very much -- in the center of the cloth.

Take the four corners, pull them up to a nifty peak. Presto! Chango!

Your cloth is now a pouch. Soooo cool. Now comes the witchy part,

where we tie it up with a gorgeous, just like my favorite Maybelline lipstick,

red yarn, cut to seven inches. Tie the first knot and say in a powerful voice,

"I bind thee to protect this house and all within it!"

Tie the second knot and say the same thing...... tie thirteen whole knots in your yarn repeating

the command every time. Pick up your athame (knife, in other words) in your prominent hand

(the one you write with) and grab the sachet (that's the cloth/herb thing, dear) with your other hand.

Now face North and hold the sachet in front and above you and poke it, gently, of course, with

your athame. Say as profoundly certain as you can,

"May this which I have made of my will and with my hands

serve me well as protector of this house and all who reside within its walls.

Guardian and Protector, so shall it be from this moment forth! So mote it be!"

Now go hang your protector/guardian/sachet/cotton cloth bag thing in the highest part of the house.

Use the red yarn to attach it to something.

TO BANISH NEGATIVE FORMS FROM YOUR HOME AND YOURSELF

Begin with a purification bath.

Light the twin candles on the altar and burn a protective and/or cleansing incense.

Fill your chalice with freshwater (be sure to consecrate it) and blessed salt.

Kneel or assume the Goddess position as you say:

"Naked come I into this sanctuary With love and faith

From those who have gone before. Innocent am I in understanding

Holy and pure in my love of all good and blessed things.

Supreme Goddess, ruler of light, Lord of all Hear my prayer,

Help me now to dispel this thing of unholiness This creature of darkness,

Who dooms itself to shame and unhappiness. Save him if it is thy will to do so.

Send him to the light. Mercy is the song I sing; Forgiveness the word most precious.

In thy everlasting grace I say this. In humility I ask this. So mote it be."

Take up the chalice of salt-water, face the east wall, dip your fingers into the water,

raise your hand and say:

"Powers of the East Powers of the daystar rising

And all fresh beginnings I purify you with salt and with water

For good vibrations of friendship warmth and love."

Then sprinkle some extra water and proceed to the south. Say:

"Powers of the South Powers of the summer sun

Which warms our bodies and our minds

I purify you with salt and with water

For good vibrations of friendship, warmth and love."

Repeat in the west:

"Powers of the West Powers of the purifying and cleansing waters

From which all life comes.

I purify you with salt and with water

For good vibrations of friendship, warmth and love."

Repeat in the north:

"Powers of the North Powers of the earth, the ground On which we stand.

I purify you with salt and with water For good vibrations of friendship, warmth and love."

Then proceed around the room sprinkling water over all the thresholds, windows, and

doorways and in all corners. REPEAT IN EVERY ROOM. Anoint your 3rd eye Chackra

point with the holy water. Then.. Add more incense to the burner, take up, and do the

same thing, using the same verses substituting "fire and air" in place of "salt and water."

As before, proceed around the room censing all the thresholds, windows, doorways, and in

all corners. REPEAT IN EVERY ROOM. Take the fire candle (or a candle for this purpose)

and your athame and, starting at the door or entrance, walk slowly CLOCKWISE through

the house, through each room pausing at each door, window, and mirror and moving the

candle across it, also pentagramming each window, doorway, and mirror with the athame.

Proceed room by room spiraling clockwise. Draw a pentagram in the air in the incense smoke.

All the while chant the following:

"By the One Power I hereby consecrate this space To the Goddess and the God,

According to free will And for the good of all; I hereby release, In all time and all space,

Any negative cause, effect, manifestation, form or essence,

Any negative event, thought, energy, idea or vibration, And transform it to

And replace it with Only positive, joyous good In keeping with the Universal harmonies

Of the Goddess and the God. This space is divinely protected This space is perfectly safe.

Nothing and no one can enter this space Unless I (or my loved ones) allow them to.

This space is sacred Consecrated and dedicated to positive living

For myself and my loved ones And for the work of positive magic.

No harm can come to this space, or anyone in it."

As you draw each pentagram say:

"Only good can enter here No negatives can enter All harm is sealed out."

When you are back at the entry point conclude:

"Love lives here Health lives here

Abundance lives here (Name self and loved ones) live here

We claim this space for ourselves, for the mutual good

And so mote it be!"

Thank the Lady and the Lord. You will feel light and free of any darkness.

Do this Ritual Spell if you have been in contact with anything nasty that has frightened you.

It is also very good if you have had nightmares.

THE SAND TRAP SPELL TO PROTECT THE HOME

This is a simple ritual designed to "trap" negative energies before they enter your home.

Similar objects and devices have been used for centuries around the world.

To make it, you will need:

* A small jar that once held spices, perhaps. It should be glass because glass is made from sand.

Thoroughly wash and dry the jar, removing any labels. It must have a close-fitting lid as well.

* Equal quantities of two different colors of sand. Some types include fine grayish-white beach sand;

yellowish coral sand; orangish sand from the desert; red sand from volcanic areas; black

obsidian sand and many others. (Many of these can be bought at plant stores or pet stores.

Also try aquarium sops and builders to find different sand types.

They do not have to be beautiful just of differing types!)

* A spoon. * Two small bowls to hold the sands.

Before you begin, pour one type of sand into the bottle until it's just over half filled.

Empty this sand into one dish. Call it "Sand 1" (for reference.)

Clean the bottle and repeat with "Sand 2," emptying it into its own bowl.

Now you are ready. Hold your protective hand over "Sand 1." Look down at it.

See it humming and writhing with protective, projective energy. Touch the sand.

Visualize it emitting sparks of bright white light that ensnare negativity and draw it inward.

Charge it with personal power. Repeat with "Sand 2". Place the bottle before you.

Scoop out a level spoonful of sand. Pour this into the jar while saying the following words:

"Trap of sand Trap the ill.

Trap the bane and Evil will."

So mote it be, it is done!

HOME BLESSING MAGICK

A home blessing meditation for charging a room:

Sit Straight with palms on lap, take deep breaths, relax, and move into a mental

space where you activate your intuitive senses, Imagine a cord of energy from

your spine connecting you to the Earth, and channel energy from the Earth

through it, Silently ask for divine protection, guidance, and blessing, Direct your

psychic sensing outward, and feel lines of force coming out of your aura,

Note where the strongest energy is (check out the floor, ceiling, directions, etc),

Note spots that feel empty or dead, note places that feel full alive, focus on where

you are sitting and how you feel at that particular spot, Imagine a sphere of light

and love energy at your heart, feel it pulsing outward with every breath.

Feel the radiance increase with every breath, feel your self as a star, continue to

breathe deeply and send out the energy, letting it pulsate in the room,

When ready, start making power sounds representing the love and light you are channeling;

use it to amplify the light you are weaving; and fill the room with the energy, Then shift focus to

sending a probe out into the room, and note the differences in the quality of energy and how

you feel about it, Repeat if necessary, When done, feel the completeness of the work.

A room blessing involving elemental quarter invocations:

Face each direction (with arms out in appropriate elemental invoking gesture), and say,

while channeling and visualizing elemental power:

Powers of (say direction), Powers of (say corresponding element),

We great you, we honor you, we welcome you here!

Watch over and bless and protect this place.

After each invocation, shape the energy into columns of light by sweeping ones

arms together until they are parallel and sweeping them up and down while

channeling and shaping the energy, when the energy is properly shaped; say So mote it be.

After you have done all four quarters, channel in spirit energy.

To return the energy to a more mellow state while energizing yourself,

put your hands out and take in a bit of the energy into your self from each direction,

going widdershins, hold hands to your heart and take in the energy (techniques

also exist for bringing it into a stone and retrieving it when needed).

HOUSE BLESSING

Salt & Water Incense (fire and air) Milk & Honey Oil (for anointing)

Wine (for offering) Bells, Pots, Pans, Whistles, etc.

Cast a circle in the main room (living room) and after casting, visualize the circle

expanding to include the entire house. Call upon the spirits and energies living in

the house (or apartment). Invite those who will be harmonious with the new

household and its energies to remain. Invite/ask those who will be happier

elsewhere to depart. Release all "energies" not compatible with the new household.

(This may be expressed as a "release" in order to unbind anything that may be stuck.)

Then call upon, greet, and invite ancestors, patron deities, and all harmonious

spirits and energies to dwell in the house as they please. Gather up the pots, pans,

and all the noisemakers. Go to each door and window, not forgetting the fireplace

and dog-door, making as much racket as humanly possible--to shoo out anything

unwanted. (This is hysterical fun, and also raises lots of energy for the next

important step.) Go again throughout the house and at each portal (door,

window, etc.) sprinkle salt-water and cense, saying:

"By the Elements I purify and charge this portal."

Then anoint the portal with milk and honey, saying

"By Milk and Honey I ensure prosperity and peace within this place."

Finally, anoint the portal with oil, saying:

"With Oil I seal this portal and protect all within."

At the front door a special prayer is said, asking the guardian deities (God &

Goddess) to freely grant entry to all friends and loved ones, and to prevent

passage (turn aside) to any who would do harm."

Then, if it's a house pour wine across the width of the threshold; if it's an apartment

anoint the threshold with light touches of wine. The householders then each take

a sip of wine, leaving some as an offering to the Gods, and the Circle should be closed.

The remaining wine, milk, and honey should be offered to the Gods.

A HOUSE BLESSING

At dawn, rise and light some incense. Walk slowly through the quiet house and say

the following words while visualizing their meaning and intent.

House of stone, metal, wood, and earth

Silent one, protective one, you of the four winds

House of health, wealth, joy and peace

Guardian, sustainer, you of earth

House of stone, metal, wood and earth

Secure one, peaceful one, you of the charm

Guarded and protected you be

Cleansed and put you be

Peaceful and loving you be

It is finished in beauty

Set down the incense and draw as exact a likeness of your house as you can from your

imagination. Draw it from all angles; from above, from the front, from behind. If you live in

an apartment, draw the building as well.

When finished, go outside and check your drawing. Is as accurate as you can make it?

If not, draw a new one or make changes until the drawing satisfies you. No great skill is required,

you need only make a recognizable likeness of your home.

When finished, take a white candle and a sharp knife. Cut seven evenly spaced notches in

the candle so that you create a knobbed candle. Now set the drawing down on a table where

it can remain for seven days. Set the candle on top of it and light it while visualizing your

home as blessed, safe and loving.

Let the candle burn down one notch the first day as you go about your early morning business,

then pinch or snuff out the flame and leave it until the next day.

The next morning, repeat the ritual - from lighting the incense and saying the blessing chant

to burning one candle notch. On the seventh day, after the candle has burned down all the way,

fold the drawing into a tight package and secure it with red or white cord.

Place it in a wooden box with salt and dried roses and tie the box shut with another white cord.

Finally, place the box in the home where it won't be seen or found.
