Do I Need To Cleanse?

Magically cleaning stuff is just a part of witch life. Unfortunately, our dust is invisible, so most of the time we have to watch for the symptoms before we treat the cause.

Do I need to cleanse myself?

Any witch, whether they feel they are actively ‘practicing’ or not, should cleanse once a month at the very least. Once a week is better. If you have recently experienced any of the following, cleansing is a good idea.

Misfortune, bad news, high stress, arguments, or losses

An unusual streak of back luck, poor timing, clumsiness, or awkwardness

Acting in unusual and negative ways, such as being short-tempered or being angry at people you usually like

A big spiritual working, spirit contact, or an unexpected or startling magical event

If you feel as if there is a cloud around you

Running in to someone who really hates you, or being pointed out as a success in a crowd

How do I cleanse myself?

Do I need to cleanse an object?

The object was worn during a big emotional blow-up or argument

Jewelry that keeps slipping off, hurts your skin even when it never used to, or doesn’t seem to fit right for some reason

For some reason you just don’t like the object any more

You don’t like walking past it, or having it in the room

It is working incorrectly or you keep almost injuring yourself on it, even though it hasn’t physically broken

Items that seem to ‘bite’ you or hide from you

Do I need to cleanse an area?

Something negative happened there, such as abuse or a very negative argument.

Walking through the area makes you feel uncomfortable and you will go out of your way to avoid it

It feels different, as if it’s someone else’s house and you shouldn’t be there

You feel very dull or stagnant when in the area, or you feel unusual and unexpected emotions coming to you

When in doubt, cleanse - it doesn’t hurt anything.

Is cleansing always the answer? Nope. As witches, we need to be aware of when we are beat. Some things are too powerful for us to tackle alone or even with friends or a coven. Throw the object out or return it to the earth instead. Also, not every object that we can cleanse should be cleansed. Not everything is supposed to be filled with happy and bright energy. It is not always wisest or best to change something just because we don’t like it.

What should we do next? Something good, something bad? Bit of both?

Healing for Others

Sometimes, those you care about are having a rough time. And you want to help! It’s natural to want to use what you know to help others. Here’s a spell I use to do just that.

What You Need:

turquoise

amethyst

lavender

rose petals

red candle

Now, set it all up. Candle in the middle, I sprinkled the lavender and rose petals around said candle. The lavender is to help soothe my particular person’s deep sadness, while the rose petals symbolize my love for them. 

I held the amethyst in one hand, for protection and clearing mind clutter, allowing for clarity and healing. Turquoise for another type of protection, more physical. Both to help clear the person’s mind and aid them.

Then, I focused. Focused on how much I cared for the person, how much they meant to me, times we’d had in the past that meant so much to me. I thought of how my strength was given to them and how I wanted them to be better and safer and feel loved. 

After a little while of this, I bottle the exact lavender and rose petals I used to give to the person at a later date!
