Just like our bodies our homes also need to rest and reset. Cleansing is used to remove unwanted energy to reset and set intentions. It is important to do this, so your home isn't holding on to stagnant and negative energy.
There are many tools that can be used to cleanse your home so let's dive into that.
Smudging Sticks-
These are burnt and the smoke clears the home and cleanses it from unwanted energy.
*Witchy Tip*
Light your smudge stick, while doing this think about what intentions you are setting. Also make sure the flame is blown out, and the smoke is flowing nicely.
White Sage- White sage is the most popular on the market for home cleansing. It removes unwanted energy, purifies the air & helps open and close spell work and rituals.
Cedar- Known as the 'Tree of God'; it is used to bless the home and call in positive energy while removing unwanted energy.
Rosemary- One of the stronger protection herbs. Helps cleanse the home and is the go to herb for cleansing your own aura field. Rosemary calls in light and vibrant energy to the home
Dragon's Blood- Helps banish negative energy and calls in the warmth from the sun. This smudging stick will warm up the energy in the home like the sun.
Lavender- Used for psychic protection; it also holds a very powerful calming energy. It can help sooth heighted emotions and call in happiness.
Mugwort- It is one of the stronger protection herbs to use to get rid of negative energy. It can also help one open their mind up before they fall asleep and step into the dream realm.

Palo Santo- This beautiful holy wood helps purify the soul. It helps clear your home from unwanted energy. It helps you connect into your creative side and your higher self.
Did you know you can also use herb mixes as well?
Using your cauldron, a charcoal disc and chosen herbs, spell mix or loose leaf incense; this is also another way to cleanse the home.
You can cleanse your home by lighting your charcoal disc (The charcoal disc will take about a minute to light) in your cauldron and then placing your chosen mix on top of it. Once you have set your cauldron up; you walk around the house going room to room with the mix lit.

Cleansing your home
When you are cleansing your home, it is best to have all doors and windows open so the unwanted/ negative energy can leave.
When you begin your cleanse, it is important to set your intentions.
Light your chosen method of cleansing tool and start walking around your home room to room clearing out the energy.
You may need to relight your smudge stick as you do this and that's perfectly fine.
Setting your intention
Before you begin, it is important to set your intention for the cleanse. I personally use a simple spell
'I call in my guides to help me remove negative energy from my space
I call in love, abundance and positive energy to replace the negative.
Blessed Be'
I like to gather all my tools together and sit with them before I begin; by doing this it will help you connect with them and put your intention into them.
When you begin your cleanse there is no right or wrong way; if you feel the need to stay and sit in one room then do so. If you feel the need to cleanse and clear one room longer than the next that it perfectly ok too.

*Witchy Tip*
On the 1st of every month; cleanse your home and space. Then once you are done stand at your front door looking in and blow a sprinkle of cinnamon into your front door to call in abundance.
Don't sweep it up just let it sit and do what it needs to.
Home Protection
If you feel the need to add protection to your home; it is a good idea to place Selenite and Black Tourmaline to all the main entrances to your home, above the door frames. (You can use blu tac to hold them in place, it will not affect the benefits of the crystals.)
Black tourmaline keeps out negative and unwanted energy from your home.
Selenite calls in positive energy, peace and calming to your home.
Black Tourmaline & Selenite are like the yin yang of crystals.
You can also grid your property as well by placing Black Tourmaline and Selenite at the four corners. You can bury these in the dirty to keep them in place.
Another couple of crystals I like to keep at my front door are Rose Quartz & Red Jasper.
