Atmosphere is everything. It is important to cleanse to create a sacred space, and it is equally important to cleanse after an argument. Arguments leave negative energy that can linger and become stagnant in the home. You may find arguments can last longer than anticipated because of the negative atmosphere. By cleansing the space, you release negative energy, replace it with positive, and restore balance and love. The following incantation is meant to clear the air and promote love and balance within the home.

This spell makes an incense to cleanse the energies in the home. Only white candles may be used for this spell; it is unacceptable to substitute any other color. White is a symbol of purity and divine love. Tea lights are a convenient and inexpensive way to use candles in every room. Accent these attributes with incense ingredients. This also provides added clarity and release of negativity. It replaces the negative energy with love, passion, and healing energy.

• Place one candle in each room, including laundry rooms, storage rooms, and smaller rooms like walk-in closets. Open closet doors and windows.

• Hold each candle and empower it with purity and divine love.

• Using a mortar and pestle, combine equal parts resins and herbs together until they form a powder.

• Light the charcoal and place it in the burner. Carry by the handle and use a feather to disperse the smoke throughout the house while chanting the following incantation:

  “Purity and love, conquer here.

  Cleanse this space that is here.

  Diminish all that is negative and dark.

  Replace with love from the heart.”

Keep excess incense in an airtight container. Burn it any time you have an argument or when you feel a change in energy is needed. A cleansing spray works much the same way as the incense. Simply combine 16 ounces of distilled water, 40 drops of bergamot oil, 18 drops of lavender oil, 8 drops of clove oil, and 14 ounces of vodka in a spritzer bottle and spray when needed.
