A Simple Home Blessing Spell/Charm

Whether you recently moved into a new home and want to bless and protect your space or have lived in your home for many years and sense the energy is stagnant and want to transform it, this simple house blessing charm is for you.

Home should be a sanctuary. A safe and holy space to rest and recharge. An escape from the chaos of the outer world. But what happens when we bring in the energies from the fast-paced, chaotic world? What happens when we bring in the noise from traffic, the stress from our jobs, the anger from the dysfunctional couple arguing on the street outside our favorite coffee shop? Many of us absorb energy from the external world without realizing it and then bring that energy into our homes.

Have you ever wondered why the energy in your home just feels off? Have you noticed you are dropping things, everything in your home is breaking all at once, and instead of feeling relaxed when you reach the “sanctuary” of home you feel on edge?

Perhaps you’ve noticed how your once clean and tidy home suddenly looks like the aftermath of a tornado and can’t quite understand when it became so messy.

Our homes reflect not only our inner lives but what is happening in the external world around us. The good news is, even in times of strife, we can intentionally shift the energies of our homes so they become peaceful sanctuaries.

To do this, first we need to transform our inner world.
