Protection
for Home and for Clients
Black salt is also often used for energetic cleansing and protection. You can
purchase it in spiritual shops or order online or make your own. You can
simply mix sea salt or regular table salt with finely crushed charcoal. To crush
charcoal, wrap it in some thick fabric and smush a few times with a hammer.
I make my black salt the way women in my family have done through many
generations. Mix sea salt, crushed grains, sage, mint, and rosemary in a
metal cookie sheet and bake it until turns dark. It is edible and is believed to
have medicinal properties. Food prepared with the black salt stays fresh for a
very long time. People that consume it rarely get sick. For protection, black
salt is traditionally sprinkled around the house, under the rug by the front
door, and in the window frames. It is often used in spiritual work and healing.
Sprinkle just a little into your bath, you will feel like the world has been lifted
off your shoulders. This salt also can be added into mojo bags for protection.
Form the ancient times, Slavic Pagans made dolls from fabric and yarn and
filled them with mixtures of black salt, dry herbs and seeds. These dolls are
used for protecting homes, all the family members, crops, farm animals, and
pets.
You can create your own protection dolls. It would make a great craft
project for you and your kids. As you are making the dolls, charge them with
your energy, infuse with your intent. You can say a prayer or chant over it to
activate. Vocalize why you are making this doll, what its purpose. Fill the doll
with the things that represent protection for you.
Good herbs to use: rosemary, sage, mint, eucalyptus, bay leaf, and pine.
You can add spices like black and red pepper, cloves, and dry yellow or black
mustard. Grains, sesame seeds, poppyseeds, nutmeg, and cinnamon will
help you to attract abundance. Rosebuds, lavender, vanilla, and honeysuckle
will help you to attract love.
