Protection Spells

House protection spell

1 glass bottle or jar with cap
mixing bowl
funnel (you can make one with a rolled up piece of paper)
9 herbs of choice from list: (Acacia, Aloe, Angelica, Anise, Ash, Basil, Birch, Blackberry, Blueberry, Broom, Caraway, Carnation, Cedar, Cinquefoil, Clover, Cotton, Cypress, Dill, Eucalyptus, Fennel, Flax, Foxglove, Grass, Hazel, Heather, Holly, Irish Moss, Ivy, Lilac, Mandrake, Marigold, Mistletoe, Mugwort, Mulberry, Oak, Olive, Pine, Primrose, Raspberry, Rice, Rose, Rosemary, Sandalwood, Spanish Moss, Thistle, Valerian, Violet, Willow)

Pour the nine selected herbs into the mixing bowl one by one. As you pour each one in say these words (replace the blank with the name of the herb): "________ that protects, protect my home and all within."
Once all of the herbs have been added to the bowl, mix them with your hands. Visualize you home being safe and secure as you mix. Cap the bottle or jar and bury it outside, in front of your front step. If you live in an apartment or other place that would prevent you from doing this, place the jar some where out of view but still near your doorway.

Protection Spell

This is for your home to keep out negative influences and also negative people. Make sure you put in enough energy and intent, people or are negative before entering your home will find it a very uncomfortable experience.
You will need
A black candle
Sea salt

Sprinkle a fine line of salt on every windowsill and door frame from the outside if your unable to do this from the outside then you may do it inside but you must remember why the salt is there when cleaning!
As you sprinkle the salt saying the following
Sacred Salt protect this house,
Keep it safe from thug and louse’
Protect all those who dwell inside,
Negative forces have no place to hide.
When you have finished sprinkling, come back inside, light the black candle and sprinkle a circle of salt around it and say
Sacred Candle, Sacred Flame
Protect this household in your name.
Keep chanting this again until you feel like you’ve made a “connection”. When you’re finished, snuff out the candle and say:
This is my will, so mote it be!
Do not blow out the candle you should never blow a candle out you will remove all the good you have just done

Reflection/Deflection Spell
1 black candle Bowl of salt
Your favourite 'protective' incense, chalice or bowl of water (whichever your preference)
A picture of the person from whom the energy is coming from
A mirror (this mirror shouldn't be like a scrying mirror. It should have a reflective surface,
and should only be used for magical purposes and should be magically cleansed before
and after each use to get rid of any magical 'residue' and it's best if it's small and can stand up).

Cast your circle as you normally would (invoking Elements, the Goddess, the God, etc.)
At this point, I would normally cleanse the mirror of anything, physically AND magically.

Next, light the black candle. The picture of the person should be face up in front of you.
Pick up the picture and look at it. Say the person's name three times to get their image
firmly in your mind. Take the picture and run it through the incense smoke, saying:

"What ye send forth comes back to thee,
By Air and the Law of Three!"

Next run it through the flame of the candle (not enough to catch it on fire) and say:
"What ye send forth comes back to thee,
By Fire and the Law of Three!"

Sprinkle water on the picture (only needs to be a little... unless you caught it on fire!!):
"What ye send forth comes back to thee,
By Water and the Law of Three!"

Sprinkle a little salt on it:
"What ye send forth comes back to thee,
By Earth and the Law of Three!"

Next, place the picture facing the mirror; the black candle should be behind the mirror,
but still able to cast light upon the picture of the person. Visualize a mirror-like surface
surrounding you, reflecting energies back towards the person.

"What you send at me goes back! Three times light, three times black! What you reap,
so shall you sew! From above and from below! No harm will come, unless you send.
No loss will come, if ye be friend. No harm to me, by mirror's shine, For I reflect, by what is mine!
Earth and Air, Water, Fire, Help reflect, by my desire! I invoke the Law of Three!
This is my Will, and it shall be!"

Allow the candle to burn down, and close the circle as you normally would, allowing
the candle to burn itself out. After the candle has burned itself out, be sure to cleanse
or dispose of the other materials used. For example I would ritually cleanse the mirror,
and burn or bury the picture, depending upon the circumstance.

Bath for protection and purification
Steep one teaspoon of dried basil in a cup of boiling water. Leave for five minutes, and then strain.
Add the liquid to your bath water to bring a protective and cleansing influence.
This herbal bath is particularly useful to rid oneself of the negative feelings left by contact
with those who are controlling.

Protection wreath
Use several long branches of fresh rosemary, from at least one to two feet long, or how ever
big you wish to make the wreath. Form the branches into a circular shape tying them together
with a fine green cotton thread. When the basic wreath shape is made, use extra sprigs of
rosemary to give it a fuller appearance.

Secure the sprigs to main body of the wreath with the green thread. When you achieve the look
and size of the wreath you want, you can dress it up by inserting other fresh herbs within the twines.
The dried seed heads of rue, dill, and fennel work well. Make sure the wreath has a well-balanced appearance, and that the herbs are firmly attached to the rosemary.

Now collect several of these flowers and poke 3, 7, or 9 into the wreath for added protection:
snapdragons, cyclamen, garlic flowers, marigolds, carnations, or roses.
After your wreath is finished, tie a red ribbon into a bow at the top or bottom of the
wreath. Attach a string or fine steel wire to the wreath to hang it with. Hang it up wherever
protection is needed; over the hearth, on the door, or even in the windows. Any type of
protective herbs may be used in this powerful wreath. The fresh flowers, of course, will
have to be replaced in intervals, but the herbs will dry beautifully!

A Spell of Protection and Power
This simple spell works well to offer protection and energy for your home or your place of business.
It is a spell that constantly grows in strength and effective power.
You will need:
A glass jar
A small amount of clean sand
A single candle (any colour, but white or natural beeswax is best)
Seven coins any denomination
Seven small stones

Find a glass jar that you would like to use for your spell (a quart canning jar is a good choice).
Wash the jar thoroughly inside and out with soap and water. Dry the jar completely. Light your candle and drop seven drops of molten wax onto the interior bottom of the jar. Next, place the seven coins on the bottom. Then, place the seven stones on top of the seven coins. Finally, place about one inch of sand in the jar just enough to cover the stones and coins.
Place the jar near an entrance door to your home.
Every time you find a small stone, drop it in the jar. Any type of stone will do, so feel free to be creative with the stones used. You do not have to put a stone in every day they can be added as frequently as you wish. It is important though that when placing stones in the jar, you put them in one at a time. In addition, the spell works best if you put no more than one stone in per day.

Once the bottle has been filled, place the lid on the jar and leave it by the door. You can make as many of these as you like, by following the sequence above, and place them by every door or window in your home or place of business. Touch the jar at least once a week to reinforce the power of the spell. This spell will help defend your home and family from the negative energy that uninvited visitors and negative thoughts can produce. It also introduces power and energy into the home and revitalizes a families strength.

To bar negative entry
1 oz. (25 grams) Ground Cumin 1 lb. (500 grams) Sea Salt
Mix well. Start at the end of the driveway, beginning to the East, and go
completely around the property, strewing along the edges of the property.
Be sure you complete the circle and re-join where you started.

To keep evil from your home
Make a magical tea from any of the following herbs and then sprinkle some of it in
the corners and doorways of your home to purify, defeat all wicked conjuring, and
prevent evil forces from entering:
angelica root broom tops curry powder holy thistle tormentil
poke root (which can also be added to your bath or cleaning water)

Protective chant for objects
With the pentacle I lay, Protection here both night and day.
And the ones who may not touch, Let their fingers burn and twitch.
I now invoke the rule of three. This is my will, so mote it be.
(While chanting the above, trace a pentagram over the object you wish to protect.
Do this three times (one tracing for each couplet) and envision three separate
circles of light forming around the object.)

The cauldron and the knife
Just before going to bed, fill a cauldron (or iron bucket, bowl or pot) with water and place it inside
your house near the front door. Take a very sharp knife or Athame and place it point-down
into the water, saying:
"Into the water I place this blade,
To guard against the thief and shade.
May no flesh nor astral shell
Enter this place wherein I dwell"
This is a good protection spell, and can be performed every evening. In the morning, remove
and dry the knife, and place it somewhere safe. Then, without touching it, pour the water
outside, (or down the drain if necessary) and put the cauldron away. It probably wouldn't be
a good idea to do this spell if you're expecting company, as it could be dangerous (and wet).
You can do this at each door if desired

Spell for safety
When feeling unsafe, say the guardian angel prayer:
"Angel of Life, my guardian dear.
To whom sweet love commits me here.
Ever this day be at my side,
to light and guard, to rule and guide."


Moon Protection for Amulets
Place a jewel, that you regularly carry on you, in a cup of spring water a day before the full moon. The following day, on the evening of full moon, stir the water three times with your finger in a clockwise motion. Take the cup in your hands and in a clockwise, stirring motion, move the cup in a clockwise, circular, stirring motion three times. Then, repeat these words aloud:
Oh Light of the Moon,
Wrap me
Protect Me
Keep me from harm.
Raise the cup towards the sky and drink the water. Remove the jewel from the cup. You must carry it on your person to the next full moon in order to ensure your protection. Repeat this ritual every month to benefit

Home Cleansing and Protection Spell 2
Can be renewed every year usually at the end of spring cleaning.
You will need:
2 bundles of sage
Bottle of White Angelica oil
A Coin
Scrap of white cloth (about 4 inch square will do)
Disposable pie pan (to use as a burn pan or something else to use to contain fire).

Open all doors and windows (closet doors, cupboards, and any storage space doors).
Start a bundle of sage burning in the centre of your home near the front door. Then leave the sage in a heat resistant pan or container on the floor until you return to the front door.
Call your circle. You will need to visualize a white light of protection surrounding your home above, around and below, this may take some deep concentration.

Add your own words of how you need the home to be cleansed and protected. Most importantly, make sure you name all the people and pets who live there in your home. Tell them how you want your home to be, such as; lively and very active or a tranquil retreat away from the outside world.

Then light the second bundle of sage and put some of the Angelica oil on the cloth. Carry the sage in a heat resistant container and the cloth to the every room of your house (basement or attic). Tell all the areas that the bad goes out and the light comes in. Be sure the sage smoke reaches in all corners, openings and closets of all the rooms in your home, to include bathrooms. When you come to a window or door go around the frame with the oil cloth. Continue this from room to room going though every room until you lastly come to the front door. Look out your door and claim the house as your own. Ask for the prosperity of your family and then place the coin in a hidden spot by the door ( where one might hide a key). Set fire to the oil cloth telling the bad that it is not welcome to come through your door. When that has burnt down in the heat resistant container, put the sage ashes from both containers with it and bury it near the front door. Thank the gods and close the circle.
Then say: “So Mote It Be!”

It is best to perform this ritual alone with all family members outside and then use your hand to put a dot of the oil on their forehead of the family members and pets as they enter the house.
