**Ingredients**
– Sage (Salvia officinalis)
– Rosemary (Rosmarinus officinalis)
– Bay leaves (Laureus nobilis)
– Salt (Sodium Chloride)
– Water
– White or blue candles
– Incense burner and incense (e.g., frankincense, myrrh, or sandalwood)
– A small bowl
– Matches or a lighter
– Optional: A protection crystal (e.g., amethyst, black tourmaline, or smoky quartz)
**Preparation**
1. Gather your ingredients and tools in a clean, sacred space.
2. Cleanse your tools under running water and charge them with positive energy by holding each one under the light of the moon or the sun.
3. Set up your workspace with the candle(s), incense burner, herbs, salt, bowl of water, and crystal (if using).
**Procedure**
1. **Casting the Circle**
Light your candles to symbolize light overcoming darkness. Visualize a protective circle around yourself and your space.
2. **Blessing the Herbs**
In your hands, blend the sage, rosemary, bay leaves, and salt together. Hold them close to your heart and whisper:
_”May these herbs purify and protect me, my home, and all who dwell here. May unwanted spirits be gently guided away from us, leaving only peace and love in their wake.”_
3. **Preparing the Incense**
Light the incense and allow its smoke to fill the space, further cleansing the environment.
4. **The Banishing Chant**
Hold the herbal blend and begin your chant:
_”Spirits uninvited, we ask you leave,
In peace and harmony, as was your decree.
By the power of the earth beneath our feet,
And the light that shines through this sacred seat.”_
5. **Sweeping Away**
Take the herbal blend and gently sweep it around the space where you wish to banish unwanted spirits. Visualize the negative energy being swept away with the herbs.
6. **Cleansing with Water**
Dip your fingers into the bowl of water and make a cross or circle over yourself, the space, and the herbs used in the ritual. Speak these words:
_”By the power of this sacred water, we are cleansed and protected from all unwanted spirits.”_
7. **Closing the Circle**
Snuff out your candles one by one, starting with the white or blue candles (if used). Thank each element for their assistance in the ritual. Visualize the circle dissipating and protectively sealing your space once more.
8. **Grounding**
Take a few moments to ground yourself and release any lingering negative energy before leaving the space.
