Instructions:
- Prepare & Ground
- Bring your tools near your front door (or a central place in your home).
- Take 3 slow breaths, feeling your feet or seat stable.
- Say: “This is my home.I have the right to feel safe here.”
- Set Intention
- Hold your hand over the candle and say: “This spell is to protect my home from harm,and to invite safety and peace inside.”
- Create a Protective Circle
- Place the bowl of salt on a plate or directly on the floor/table.
- If you like, mix in a pinch of protective herb.
- Trace a small circle around the bowl with your finger, saying: “Within this circle, only what truly wishes us well may enter.”
- Light the Candle & Charge
- Place the candle beside or behind the bowl and light it.
- Imagine the flame extending protection to every room, door, and window.
- Repeat 3–9 times: “Walls strong, doors wise,peace within and clear, kind ties.”
- Direct the Energy
- If you have a key, hold it over the bowl and candle for a moment, letting it soak in the intention.
- If not, imagine your front door glowing with a gentle, protective light.
- Release & Close
- After a few minutes, when it feels “done,” snuff the candle safely.
- Say: “This working is complete.May this home be guarded,may all who dwell here be protected and at peace.”
- Mundane Follow-Up
- Check that doors and windows close/lock properly.
- Do one small practical thing to support safety:
- tidy the entryway
- clear clutter from in front of the door
- remove anything that makes you feel uneasy
- You can keep the salt bowl by the door for a week, then dispose of it (outside or down the drain) and refresh as needed.
