Space Clearing

Have you ever heard about it? How do you keep your space clear and clean?

Space clearing is all about making sure the space where you live, where you sleep, where you work, where you study etc. is free from bad and toxic energy.

Before exploring how to clean the space let's first understand how our space become "dirty" listing some of the causes:

• How do you feel: negative feelings like anger, hate, jealousy, resentments, sadness etc. you may feel to others but also to yourself

• External influences: you might have people around taking energy a lot of energy from you, or being jealous, asking for too much attention etc. As you are deeply connected with the space you live you will also influence and dirty the space. Or you might have people visiting your place with bad energy. It is a good practice to "clean" the space after visitors leave the house.

• Objects: they also have their own energy depending where they come from, the energies they've been through and who have touch them. Pay extra attention to pre-owned objects or gifts.

• Spirits: you may believe in spirits or not but houses are inhabited by unseen spirits. They can be good or bad, they could be spirits of people who lived the place when in full body or just passing by.

Now that we listed the main causing of creating negative energies into our space we can explore how to clean the space.

• Light a candle: while lighting the candles and looking for few seconds to the flame set your intention of which type of energy you want to bring to your place.

• Spread Salt: It is the most potent cleaner and protector. Spread it at the base of windows and doors to protect the space.

• Burn Incense: Take the incense and go around the house, important to follow clockwise direction. Spend more time to go around windows and doors. Open the windows to change the energies and let go what is not needed

• Crystals: you may use crystals to direct energies on specific needs and intentions, but this requires a deeper level of knowledge of use of crystals. You can start with Clear Quarts and Obsidian. Use the Clear Quartz, preferably with pointer to clean and direct the energy. If you notice while you burn the incense the energy might be stagnated based on how the smoke is directed you can use the clear quartz to clear it. Use the Obsidian ad a shield and protector especially in places around the house you may feel are particularly affecting your energy level.

• Essential Oils: while you literally clean your space you can put few drops of tea tree oil, lavender and sweet orange in the water you use to clean the floor. I also add some salts if it doesn't damage the floor. Remember to always use a clockwise direction.

This is a perfect moment of the year to clean the space. When we enter into a new seasons energies changes and the space also need to adapt to it.

Clearing the space allow to remove negative and stagnated energies to allow to make the space for new and positive energies.

Take your time to do it, it is a beautiful ritual also to connect with your space and thank it for keeping you safe.

I have created my unique methods incorporating ancient practices from my ancestors and what I learned from Shamans, books and workshops.

I've been using these practices for years and always adding some new things on the way. I am sharing these ritual for the first time which is the basics of space clearing.

Additional practices can be used to clear specific situation, needs and intentions but those requires a deeper knowledge.

I am available for private consultations if you have specific needs.
