Blessing Your Home With Sage
Many people in the new age community are interested in learning how to bless their house and create a sacred, protected space free from negative energy. This article will guide you through a simple yet effective method of blessing your home using sage and other common household items.
Materials needed:
- White sage (available at new age stores, some Barnes and Noble locations, or online)
- Spray bottle
- Purified or spring water
- Kosher or sea salt
- Calming music
- Positive mindset
Steps to bless your home:
- Prepare the blessing water:
- Pour purified or spring water into the spray bottle.
- Add a small amount of kosher or sea salt to the water and mix well.
- Hold the spray bottle between your hands, close your eyes, and visualize white light energy flowing from the divine source through your body and into the bottle.
- After a few moments, say: “In the name of all that is, I bless this water to make it pure. May it cleanse and protect all from harmful energy.”
- Set the atmosphere:
- Play calming music and spend a few minutes meditating.
- Focus on positive, uplifting thoughts to help clear the space of harmful energy.
- Use the sage:
- Light the white sage (either loose in an abalone shell or as a smudge stick).
- Allow the sage to smoke, then walk clockwise around your home.
- While walking, chant a prayer or positive affirmation to help clear negative energy and invite positivity. Some examples include:
- “Bless this house, make it holy.”
- “Allow only good to be present here.”
- “Negativity be gone, replaced only by good will.”
- When finished, extinguish the sage by wrapping aluminum foil around the burning end of the smudge stick.
- Spray the blessing water:
- Walk clockwise around the blessed area once more, misting the space with the holy water from the spray bottle.
- The combination of salt and water creates a chemical reaction that helps purify the air and provides additional protection.
- Meditate and visualize:
- Sit in the center of the blessed space and close your eyes.
- Visualize golden light and loving energy filling the room for about 10 minutes.
- Cleanse yourself:
- After completing the blessing, take a shower to rinse off any residual negative energy.
