When I cleanse a dwelling place, first I burn a good cleansing incense,
like frankincense or sandalwood in the home while I prepare for the
rest of the ritual. You should have in addition to the incense, a
candle, a bowl of salt water and a bowl of herbs. I particularly like
to use rose buds for love, lavender for preservation, rosemary for
protection, and any other sweet smelling ones that appeal to you
personally. If you can get them home grown, so much the better. You
should proceed around the house, widdershins (counter clock wise) and
cleanse the area with the salt water. Be sure to get each corner,
window, door, drain, etc. Simply sprinkle a little salt water on each
and ask that any evil or disruptive influences leave the place. When
this is finished, proceed around the house deosil (clockwise)
sprinkling the blessing herbs and invoke whatever deities or
properties you wish on the home, such as peace prosperity,
tranquility, etc. In the past, I have used 3 candles on the central
altar. Blue, symbolizing tranquility, green for healing and
prosperity, and purple for protection. Others might be pink for love,
or brown for hearth and home. You and anyone who is to share the home
with you should share food and drink, and don't forget to leave a
little of the food and drink to take outside and return to the Earth
that which has been given.
Blessed Be. Rowan
