Many of us have experienced to perceive as if there was something strange in our environment, as if something was "wrong", causing us that feeling of discomfort, which we don't know how to define or what to associate with, but which we hear loud and clear.
Trust your intuitions! If you feel it, it means that something in the house has actually changed, and often in a very simple way this is what many refer to as "negative energies".
Where do these energies come from? They usually have different sources and origins and almost never they are linked only to a single object or person.
Negativity can be emanated by a person who lives in the house, or even who simply stays in it for a moment, and thus can be transported from the outside to the house, where it then stagnates until it is eliminated.
The same reaction can also be caused by a particular object, which perhaps previously belonged to another person and therefore has absorbed the entire emotional baggage linked to the previous owner.
If the harmful energy is not removed it can feed itself and grow, causing disharmony and discontent among those who share the same environment which, afflicted by these negative vibrations, will emanate others, worsening the situation.
The Autumn Equinox is just passed, this is an ideal time to get rid of everything you do not want, including energies, I will explain here below some methods to carry out a thorough energetic cleansing, of our environment, including ourselves.
However, remember that these methodologies can be used whenever you feel the need, they are therefore not linked only to this time of year and have no expiration date.
HOUSE CLEANING
The first thing to do in these cases is to physically clean the environment in which we live, since energy can nestle in every corner of the house and certainly dust and dirt do not help in eliminating all its traces. First of all, look around and eliminate everything you don't need: that dress you haven't worn for 3-4 years, that cracked cup at the bottom of the shelf, that book you have already read and didn't like; collect items in a box, give them away or take some items to a flea market, throw away the unusable ones! (please, recycle as much as possible!)
Now that you have cleared some space in your environment, clean it thoroughly: use natural cleansers with essential oils that will help release positive vibrations (I personally recommend Eucalyptus, Lemon and Mint).
Once you have tidied up and cleaned your house it will be easier for you to keep it that way.
JARS WITH SALT
Collect a few jars with lids or bowls of more or less the same size, you will need at least one for each room in the house (if a room is very large and you feel the need to use two, do it.)
Add a generous handful of salt to each of them, then fill them with fresh water. Now, place them in every room of the house, preferably in the corners and somewhere not too visible. If you have pets at home, make sure that they cannot reach them or choose glass jars that can be closed, in this way they will not cause damage to your things or to the health of your furry pets.
The salt contained in the water will exorcise the negative energies present, dissipating them in the water, and will also ensure that no new ones are formed.
When you feel that your containers are "saturated" simply throw the contents down the sink, wash them well and fill them again with fresh water and salt.
Remember that you can also use salt to purify yourself by adding it to your bath water.
FUMIGATIONS
A very powerful tool for the purification of the environment are herbs for fumigations.
This practice consists in the use of dried aromatic herbs, collected in bunches and burned with incense or crumbled over a charcoal.
This is a very ancient methodology, since immemorial time it has been used in many cultures especially to purify the places where magical or shamanic celebrations are practiced.
it is necessary to make a note here:
on the web market and in holistic shops there are some herbs ready to use for this purpose, especially White Sage and Palo Santo. These plants are part of millenary traditions still active today, they belong to cultures that are still very alive and practiced by specific populations.
Unfortunately, due to a consumerist conception introduced by some New Age doctrines, these plants are now harvested without respecting their natural life cycle with the sole purpose of making money. A real cultural appropriation that make them became protected species at risk of extinction.
There are multitudes of aromatic plants that can be used for this purpose, the best thing to do in fact would be to personally collect the typical plants of your territory, which therefore belong to your own culture, carefully selecting them based on what we want to achieve. For example, the same result can be obtained using Sage, Rosemary, Rose petals or Basil leaves. (Be careful not to pick poisonous plants!)
If you really don't want to give up fumigation with White Sage or Palo Santo, there are companies that cultivate these plants in full respect of the cycles of nature and that, on the contrary, contribute to reforestation in the plundered territories. Get informed and buy only from ethical companies who will provide you with a clear certification.
Returning to us, fumigation consists in filling every room in the house with the smoke of aromatic herbs, literally visualizing the negative energy that dissolves. Take advantage of this practice to direct the smoke also towards yourself and meditate for a few minutes. Then open all the windows and let the air change completely. As I told you, you can use bunches of dried herbs, lit at the top like an incense stick (the so-called "smudge"), or you can prepare a mixture of herbs and powdered resins to burn on a charcoal.
SPRAY WITH ESSENTIAL OILS
In some situations fumigation can be difficult as not all people / animals can tolerate it.
You can solve this problem by creating a customized spray mixture to vaporize in the rooms whenever you feel the need.
I leave you my personal recipe below, but feel free to modify it to your according to your intuition:
Ingredients:
- Spray vaporizer, at least 100ml
- Hyaline quartz or rose quartz (just the right size to fit into the container)
- Alcohol for liqueurs or pure Vodka
- 9 drops of Neroli essential oil
- 9 drops of Lemon essential oil
- 9 drops of Orange essential oil
- Three grains of salt
Put all the ingredients in the spray vaporizer and use the mixture in every room, if you wish you can also use it on yourself and your clothes (Warning: some essential oils can cause allergic reactions).
MANTRA
Music can be an ideal remedy to clean up the energy in the home, it is suitable for anyone but especially for those who live with people who may not tolerate the smell of incense well or if you do not want to reveal your spirituality to others.
If you have it you can use the Tibetan bell or some other musical instrument that produces relaxing sounds, otherwise on the internet you will find a myriad of specially created songs.
I personally recommend Mantras or harmonic frequency music, which you can play as a pleasant background music while you do something else.
Below is one of my favorites:
These that I have listed are the main methods of purification that I use in my daily practice, personally I find them very effective and I am sure that even less experienced people will undoubtedly perceive the energetic swich that happens immediately after using them.
There are many others, perhaps a little more specific, but which I will explain better in other articles.
I would like to conclude by leaving you some advice, perhaps trivial, but which I think are really useful for not falling back into the old patterns, allowing negativity to return to our lives.
- Protect yourself as much as possible: it seems obvious but it is not; how often do we continue to hang out with people we know are clearly negative for us? Learn to set boundaries, take your distance and, if for various reasons you can't avoid them, agree to do it only when you are at your full strength and cleanse the environment up immediately afterwards.
- Learn to say no: Some people take advantage of our empathy, behaving like real psychic vampires. If you don't feel like doing something, say it, don't be afraid to deny something to someone, don't dissipate your energy if you already feel tried.
- Work on yourself: if you are the first one to focus every day on negative thoughts, it is useless to work on the home environment, the negativity will keep coming back. Concentrate to change your way of thinking, meditate, do Yoga, help yourself with anything that allows you to change your mindset.
- Crystals and Plants: Everything that comes from the earth keeps its positive vibrations. Decorate the room where you spend the most time with plants and crystals, plants in particular improve the air quality and give the environment a sense of serenity, plus they are also beautiful to look at!
- Visualization: this is a method that I could define as "emergency" to cleanse the energies of the place where we are (or of ourselves or of an object), it is a practice that we can use in moments when we have no possibility to use other equipment, perhaps because we are in a hotel or with people to whom we do not want to reveal our spiritual side, but we are perceiving energies that make us uncomfortable. Close your eyes and visualize for a few seconds the room, the person or the object slowly being enveloped in a golden light, which dissipates every dark corners.
