Tips for Baby Witches: Cleansing
A basic knowledge every baby witch needs to know is how to cleanse your work space. You don’t want to be using a tainted item or invite negative energy into your work. There are many techniques to cleanse your work space.
Smoke cleansing: Using a match, a candle, an incense stick or Sage (*** this may be a closed practice, ask ahead of time if you can***), you can light them and stop the flame, causing smoke to come out. This is a popular method for Jar spell cleansing and making a prayer area and riding of bad energy. This is also popular in grounding yourself.Â
Sound cleansing: You can use a bell, I use a spoon against another spoon. This is my preferred method because I'm allergic to strong scents so I will almost always try to use a non-smoky method. You can make a ringing noise using a cup or a bowl if you’d like.
Water: placing your container or certain stones (not all crystals should be placed in water) in a naturally running stream or lake/river is a great way to cleanse what you’re using. Note: Make sure it’s not muddy or unclean water.
These are the forms of cleansing I am familiar with and I personally use on a regular basis. There are other forms such as Moon/Sun cleansing where you leave your object in moonlight or sunlight but I'm not very familiar with these so I will not say anything about them. Using crystals is also popular, but I do not use this method personally either.Â
