This is how I cleanse a space to get rid of negative energy as well as lingering energy, memory energy or static energy and making a space very neutral and ready for whatever sacred space you want to make it.
First I start with a Sage Smudge. There are many different Sages out there, I prefer White Sage. You can also use a rope of Sweetgrass or a specially blended cleansing incense.
Before you light your Sage go through your entire house or building and open all the doors. Interior and exterior. Open all cupboards and closets and windows also. Basically if it opens, open it.
Stand at your front door. Now light your Sage and make sure you have quite a simmer before blowing it out.
Keep a bowl, shell, cauldron or any container underneath it to catch any ash and to assist at relighting if you need to.
Now starting at your front door work your way deosil (Sunwise or clockwise) around the interior. Walk through each room letting the smoke fill every corner, linger for a moment in windows and doorways, cabinets and cupboards to ensure complete saturation. Make sure you smudge every room, then end at the front door where you started.
While you are doing this you can say a chant. Something like...
Smoke of Air
And Fire and Earth,
Cleanse and Bless
This Home and Hearth.
Drive away
All harm and fear;
Only Good
May enter here.
When you are done Thank the Universe, Goddess, God, whoever you work with and Blessed Be!
Keep your windows open for a bit longer so you don't set off your smoke alarms and enjoy your clean sacred space!!
Namaste,
AnnaStacia
