House cleansing rituals

I have heard a lot about a ritual which will remove any negative entities from your home. I was interested after first hearing this as I can feel the negative energy in my home. But after reading about rituals that involve dark entities, I have read many things about how it could go wrong and I could be haunted for the rest of my life. So my question is: Can performing a house cleansing ritual harm me in any way? Or release more negative entities into my home? Thanks for reading

You can do lesser banishment spell of the pentagram.

Not at all. House cleansing rituals are simple, easy and totally benign.

The standard is a sage smudging. Simply burn a stick of sage and allow the smoke to waft throughout your home. Negative energies are repelled by sage. Rosemary is also effective for cleansing negativity that may already be present within it, so pour some in a small glass bottle, place the bottle in the central room of your house, insert a white candle into the mouth of the bottle, and light it, allowing the candle to burn out completely. Then, cork the bottle shut and bury it in your yard or garden. This promotes domestic harmony.

Blessed be.

Thanks for the tip. I was also woundering if there was a spell too. :D

As someone recommended earlier, the Lesser Banishing Ritual of the Pentagram. When you do it, visualize it surrounding your whole house, and when you bring down the light during it, visualize it filling your whole house. There are several versions of it on this site. But if you truely want to understand it, listen to http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0zKVEcPJ368 . Use it as a guided meditation too. Works great.

not unless you invite it in, but with cleansings you should be concentrating on negative beings/energy being forced out of your home forever, you could chant, visualize, or think of your outcome, but that coupled with however you're cleansing gets all negativity out. it can seep back in after a while, yes, which is why you should put up a protection charm, and try to make cleansing an annual thing.

The trick with house cleansing rituals is that they only get rid of what is already in your home. They don't protect against anything else that might then want to move in. That's why a house cleansing should also be followed by a warding a shielding to prevent any new unwanted entities from taking up residence in your home.

Ah isee what your saying lark, they could always cast a spell on their house to only let good spirits in.

@ SpiritualMan, you invite in things subconsciously, if you say 'everyone's welcome' it could lead to negative energy/beings coming in. you need to be specific, like with the cleansing you should say something like 'negative energy and beings wishing me harm must leave this space forever' this gets rid of everything negative. as long as the sage, or the sea salt, or whatever you used, is still lingering the negative energy/beings can't get back in, but that's temporary. in that time you should do a protection spell on your home, put up herbs or charms to protect your home, stuff like that. keep in mind, all spells wear off, negative energy can come back into your home, so you'll need to recast and recleanse. a good time frame, in my opinion anyway, should be a cleansing once a year, and a protection spell every 4-6 months depending on what's going on in your life.

I agree with you when you say spells wear off, you would have to cast it like every couple of weeks.
