House Blessing
When cleansing a dwelling place, first burn a good cleansing incense like, "White Sage" in the home while you prepare for the rest of the ritual. You should have in addition to the incense, a candle, a bowl of salt, pure water and a bowl of herbs. Particularly nice are rose buds for love, lavender for preservation, sage 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, (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, sprinkle the blessing herbs in each corner, and invoke whatever deities or properties you wish on the home, such as peace prosperity, tranquility, etc. Sprinkle herbs/flowers in all corners of home while chanting:
"Water and salt, where you are cast,
no unknown purpose or evil last,
but let in only which is willed by me,
and as I will, so mote it be."
You can use 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. Or white for protection. Light the candles, again chanting:
"Water and salt, where you are cast,
no unknown purpose or evil last,
but let in only which is willed by me,
and as I will, so mote it be."
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.
If you are performing this ritual "for" some one, a gift for the homeowner should be left.
You can also leave a White candle burning in honor of those we have lost.
