This spell is for the protection of a room, household or other physical location against negative energies or bad spirits.

Difficulty: Moderately Easy
Instructions

Things You'll Need:

  • Sea salt
  • Purified water
  • Dragon's Blood or Sandalwood incense
  • Incense holder
  • Fan or feather (optional)
  1. Step 1

    Cast a Witch's Circle. If you use a besom for this, sweep the entire area that you wish to protect.

  2. Step 2

    Asperse (sprinkle with purified water) the area that you are protecting. Pay special attention to any doors, windows or corners.

  3. Step 3

    Cast the sea salt around the edges of the area. You need not be heavy-handed, just a few salt crystals per foot is quite sufficient.

  4. Step 4

    Light the incense and allow it to burn for a few moments before continuing. Many denominations of witchcraft begin chanting or prayers at this point.

  5. Step 5

    Use the fan or feather to cense (direct smoke towards) the entire area. Work clockwise (doesil) and wave the fan through the smoke to send it outwards. As with the water, pay special attention to doors, windows and corners. Finish your chants and invoke any deities or energies whose blessing you desire upon the protected area. Finish with your normal ritual and close the circle.
