Smudging Protection
Smudging
Smudging :involves burning certain beneficial herbs, primarily sage, and wafting the smoke gently all through a structure and all over your body. Be careful of sparks and embers!
Crack a window in each room of your home so the air can move around.
You will need a metal dish or a large shell to hold the sage stick or wand. You will also need a cigarette lighter to get the thing lit , I use the wooden matches to keep it burning.
You will want to use a hand-held fan or feather to push the smoke into every corner of the space you wish to cleanse. It is also a very good idea to fan the smoke across every area of your body and to inhale a little of it. This will help to cleanse you of negativity, to make sure that you are not adding to the problem.
I have found that it doesn't make much difference what variety of sage you burn it all works.
The most convenient way I have found to do this is to purchase a sage stick or sage wand at my local New Age shop or even a health food store.
The stick is just the whole dried herb bundled together with cotton string and are cheap, they come in different sizes.
When every square inch of the inside has been smudged, and you have returned to the spot where you started, you need to mentally "seal off" your living space or house with the intention, saying out loud
"I have cleansed the negative energies in this space, and nothing negative can exist here. This is for my highest good, and for the greatest good of all." Tailor these words to your situation. You can then say "Amen" or "So Mote It Be," depending on your religious affiliation.
If you are cleansing a freestanding house, you need to smudge the entire outside of the structure, too.
If you have properly smudged, the "feeling" or sense of the energy in the house is now changed.
If you can afford some kind of air purifier, with or without a negative ion generator, use this to help keep the air free of dust. It is hard to generate negativity in a room full of negative ions. The ghost will not enjoy being in the same room with that machine.

Crystals and Gem Elixirs
| Crystals and gemstones were used in ancient times by the High Priest on their garments and on their breastplates for protection, wisdom and power. The ancients knew the power and the metaphysical properties of crystals. Be amazed at the value of using these small precious stones to enhance your world. This power and wisdom won wars and gave men and women the courage needed to conquer their fears. Knowledge of crystals is reemerging all over the world. People are drawn to their power and are learning how to work with crystals as healing tools and power objects.
In metaphysics, all of the physical properties of crystals have counterparts in the mental, or psychic, world. |
I use a combination of Amethyst Lapis and Amethyst, and Kyanite as the first combo discourages and stops anything from getting through, and the Kyanite will change the level of vibration of anything that manages to get through... if someone is in a foul mood and takes a shot at me, it gathers up that energy and changes it before sending it right back where it came from. So whoever gets it back gets it cleansed and elevated rather than it being sent back angry or unclean...I keep them there in case I have had a rough night or day.
QUARTZ
Quartz is a power stone. It has been called the "Universal Crystal", and is the most recognized type of crystal. It's what many people envision when they think of crystals, even though there are many types of crystals. Quartz can be icy clear or have inclusions, veils, bubbles, etc. Visual clarity normally isn't important to a quartz crystal's energetic quality and ability to amplify subtle energies.
Quartz enhances energy by absorbing, storing, amplifying, balancing, focusing and transmitting. It channels universal energy. Quartz also enhances thoughts, as they are a form of energy. Because it directs and amplifies energy, it is extremely beneficial for manifesting, healing, meditation, protection, and channeling. It is also beneficial for storing and retrieving information of all types, as information is a form of energy pattern also. This makes them particularly good for programming. Due to its ability to balance, quartz is excellent for harmonizing and balancing one's environment. Quartz is also good for energizing other crystals.
Quartz is a stone of clarity which dispels negativity and clears away negative energy. It can be used to purify and clarify on the spiritual, mental, and physical planes. It is also powerfully protective. Quartz enhances spiritual growth, spirituality and wisdom. Because it clarifies though processes and emotions it increases inspiration and creativity. It can also help particularly with concentration, studying, and retaining what one learns. Quartz is also a stone of harmony because it balances energies, and is even helpful in romantic relationships.
Psychically, quartz is a powerful stone. It is used for protection because it counters black magic and protects from negative energy. Quartz is very useful on the third eye chakra for clarity of psychic vision, and can be used to communicate with spirits and other worlds. Quartz is a stone that can access ancient wisdom and bring it into the present. It is a very good stone for astral travel, manifestation, channeling and dream recall.
Carrying Quartz or wearing it can help you in many ways,I have lots of Quartz crystals sitting all over my home. When I'm out checking on a haunting I carry one in my hands.
also I make a mixture of blessed spring water with rock salt in a Spray bottle and drop a Quartz in and I use that if needed.
This comes in handy if you feel the energy is not good you can make a circle around you and stay inside of it until you gain control of the situation.
For a person who needs to gain control of their house hold this is a great way to start spray this mixture all over rugs,floor,curtains,couches,beds anyplace you want protection.....it's highly charged water.

Aura Demonstration
An Easy Way To Demonstrate Auras To Your Friends Believe it or not some people just do not believe in auras! This article shows you an easy and fun way to demonstrate the existence of auras to your friends. I came across this method when I was studying metaphysics for fun. I demonstrated this to one of my friends. We had a great laugh. My friend had never experienced anything like this before and was completely blown away by the whole event! First you need to find two hollow non-metal tubes. The inside of a glad wrap or tin foil roll is ideal or you could use a rubber hose. Cut it to a length that easily fits your hand. Next you need two pieces of wire. I like to use the wire from a coat hanger. Bend each piece of wire to form a right angle. Place each wire into each of the tubes. The wire should be free to move. Turn off as many electrical gadgets as you can as these may interfere with the demonstration. Certainly turn off your TV, computer and mobile phones. Now for the demonstration. You may choose to do this outside in the garden but you can just as easily do it inside so long as there is a bit of room and not too much clutter. Ask your friend to stand as far away from you as they can. The further the better really as we don’t yet know where the boundaries of your friends’ aura are. Hold the tubes with the wires inserted. Hold one tube in each hand. Hold your hands out in front of you. Very slowly walk towards your friend. As you slowly approach your friend the wires will probably move around a little. At some point the wires will suddenly start to move outwards. This will happen as they interact with one of the outer limits of your friends’ aura. It may take a couple of tries to get a real feeling for what’s happening. If nothing happens or you’re just not convinced then you may be starting this demonstration already inside the aura field. If this is the case you will just need to approach your friend from a greater distance. Once you get a feel for things there will be no doubt in your mind that the aura exists as a strong field of energy surrounding each and every one of us. Make some kind of a mark on the floor to record where the wires did their thing. Then swap and let your friend hold the tubes and approach you. If they were a non-believer before they will soon be stunned. You can also demonstrate how our emotions affect our auras. Get your friend to think of something really negative or a time when they were unhappy. Ask them to hold that thought. Repeat the demonstration outlined above. You will be amazed at how the limits of the aura have shrunken as you start to step over the previously recorded line. Now go back to your starting point. Ask your friend to think of something really positive or a time when they felt great and were happy. When you repeat the exercise you will find that their auras have expanded. Sometimes this expansion will actually be outside of the walls of the room you are doing this demonstration in so you may need to go outside into a more open space! If you are a really keen student of the aura you may want to progress from this exercise. Once you get a feel for things you can try just using your hands with the palms of your hands held out in front of you as slowly walk forward. It takes a bit more time and effort to develop sensitivity but it can be done and anyone can do it. You don’t need to be psychic or hold any special skills or talents. I really like this demonstration because it’s simple, it’s fun and it works. It’s a great reminder to us all that we are more than our physically visible selves. It brings up all sorts of questions. Do you walk around with your aura all contracted or expanded? What kind of health issues will walking around with a contracted aura cause you in the long run? What about all the electrical gadgets we interface with on a daily basis? How are they affecting us? How does living in a very crowded city affect your aura? Imagine walking through a crowded shopping area or along a very crowded street! You’re walking through thousands of auras! How does this affect you? Should we be doing some kind of daily aura cleansing just like we take a shower or a bath? Once you’ve experienced the demonstration above I’m sure you’ll be filled with your own set of questions.

Repellent of Negative Energies
When visitors drop by, one of the sweetest compliments they can give us is, “Your house always smells so good!” Pleasant aromas have the power to alter our mood, so it is not surprising that the practice of using scent imaginatively in the home is centuries old. One ancient and delicious way to do this is with potpourri.
The word “potpourri” means a medley of things--exotic blends of herbs, spices, and dried flowers set out in pots or jars to scent the surroundings. The idea is still a charming one, and it’s so easy to make fragrant all-n/atural potpourris that can actually make a positive difference, improving the atmosphere in our homes on every level, relaxing us, helping us to feel more clarity and calm. Gathering the ingredients is fun for the whole family, and the results are sure to please.
SLOW COOKERS AND POTPOURRIS
Some people who suffer from respiratory illnesses will not tolerate incense smoke. A good alternative is to prepare similar recipes using essential oils as well as dried and/or fresh herbs, nuts, and flowers in a slow cooker, letting a softer kind of smoke (vapor) permeate your space.
An excellent repellent of negative energies can be prepared by adding the following ingredients to water being heated in a slow cooker:
· 1 Bay Leaf
· 5 sticks of Cinnamon
· a large Lemon wedge
· some Myrrh oil
· Sea Salt
When I make this I just cut my slowcooker off at night, then the next day I just reheat it and it smells wonderful.
I also take it after its all warm and put it into cups and put some in everyroom in my home (make sure no children can get to it)
you will feel the air change suddenly after you do this,you will get a peaceful feeling.
I also add things to this that I like and it can last up to a week.

Protection with Beliefs
Unseen Phenomena
Not all supernatural disturbances are caused by something visible to the naked eye. Poltergeists are invisible spirits which supposedly hurl objects around, make loud noises and generally cause mayhem. It is thought that they may be caused by subconscious tension, particularly from adolescents, and that they are a telekinetic way of releasing this tension.
Although poltergeists are probably the best known of all 'unseen phenomena' there are others. Cold spots, for example, are said to occur in some places that are haunted and focus on very small areas indeed. The temperature in these cold spots can often be several degrees lower than in the surrounding air, apparently without any obvious explanation. There's cold spots at the top of the landing at Borley Rectory, said to be the most haunted house in England.
Protection against Ghosts
Most people see ghosts as a malevolent and often downright frightening phenomenon, which goes a long way to explaining why there are so many 'protections' against them. Here are a few of the more interesting ones.
Christian Beliefs
Purveyors of the Christian faith have developed a whole range of protections against spirits. Holding up a crucifix, making the sign of the cross with your fingers and praying are some methods of warding off a ghost, or at least keeping yourself from being harmed by them.
For particularly unpleasant and extreme cases of haunting Christians recommend exorcism. This involves a priest conducting a ritual involving prayer and the use of holy water within the haunted area to try and drive out the spirit. Very few exorcisms now occur in the western world.
Some European Methods
Throughout Europe, a popular belief at one time was that placing a large boulder over a grave would stop any restless spirit that may reside inside from escaping. If a large boulder was unavailable then a large pile of smaller rocks would be used instead. Passers by were encouraged to add to the pile in order to stop the spirit from following them home.
Burying a body at a crossroads was also supposed to be a useful method of avoiding a haunting. The reasoning behind this was that a restless soul would be confused by the variety of possible routes and so be unable to leave its resting place. A lot of criminals were hung from trees next to crossroads for the same reason.
The simplest of all methods for warding off ghosts is apparently to light candles, because ghosts don't like the light. Of course these days we have electric lights, which would probably perform the same function.
Stop A Spirit from Following you home
When it comes to ghosts, you either have a fear for them or find yourself at peace in their presence. Some people are so leery of apparitions and spirits that they need to find comfort in ghost protection, which could come in the form of actions or additional physical accompaniments. If you like to seek out ghosts, but never know what you will come in contact with during your adventures, you might want to have ghost protection in your possession (just in case).
There are many different kinds of ghost protection to consider and depending on the level of protection you need, you should familiarize yourself with some of the things that can provide you with safety. Throughout the world, there are many different methods that are used for protection from ghosts. When it comes to protecting the home, you can place houseleeks on your roof. This is because it is believed that the dead cannot bear to be close to this plant, whose name stands for ever-living in Latin.
Following a death in the family, it is said that covering all of the mirrors in a household will prevent the newly deceased from using any of these mirrors as a portal from the afterlife into the living world. Also regarding the household, you can create a fire outside of your home, which is thought to keep away the ghosts. If you take a look at Halloween night, you may encounter bonfires in the front or back of yards.
A simple protection approach towards keeping the ghosts away is to light candles at your residence and keep them burning throughout the night. There is also a way to utilize herbal remedies and natural items for ghost protection. Rowen and St. John�s wort can be hung in the doorways of homes to keep evil spirits from knocking on doors. There are additional natural remedies to consider as well when it comes to keeping ghosts in their place. To enhance your protection against unruly spirits, you should get used to the idea of incorporating Angelica, jimson weed, and nettle into your everyday practices.
There are also things that you can wear to keep ghosts at a distance. Wear lodestone or carry it in your person and you may avoid an encounter with an evil ghost. Sometimes you feel as if you are being followed or chased by a ghost. This is when you need to have ghost protection by your side. It is believed that ghosts cannot cross over into a moving body of water. So, if you ever feel that you are being followed by a ghost, you may want to head for the wetness and jump into a river, stream, creek, ocean, or sea.
When a ghost is following you, there are other ways to shake them. Going through the cleft of a tree will create confusion in the minds of ghosts and you will be able to lose them.
Some ghost protection methods are rather complicated and hard to understand the reasoning behind them. For example, if you carry a seashell with a sprig of rosemary inside that has been bound in red thread, you should be able to carry the ghosts away. A hexagram also works wonders against the actions of ghosts, If you use this protection method, it should be in the form of an amulet, which is said to keep the evil spirits away from those who wear it.
When it comes to ghost protection, there are plenty of ways to protect yourself, especially when visiting places that are known to serve as a home to spirits. This may include a haunted cemetery, especially when the newly deceased have been laid to rest. Another place to carry protection along with you is when encountering a haunted house, castle, or attraction. Overall, carrying something to protect you from ghosts is a helpful habit to get into regardless if you believe in ghosts or not. If anything, you may find a little more luck in your back pocket.
