Read over this spell and customize it prior to use-the work will go much smoother.
Tools you will need are:
Yellow 8" Taper Candle
It is best to find a work area that you can leave untouched for three days. If you must put away your tools, try to at least keep your spell candle out in the open.
Prepare your work area by setting up the tools you will need While setting up your area, CONCENTRATE on the purpose of your work.
Just prior to your work, bathe in purification herbs, or with your favorite bath salts. While you are bathing, concentrate again on the purpose of your spell. Do not let negative thoughts enter your mind.
After bathing, go to your work area. Cast a circle. Light some incense. Envision a large, yellow ball of light surrounding you, your work area, and your home. Hold the candle between the palms of your hands and direct all of your positive energy into the candle.
Place the candle in its candle holder. Prior to lighting the candle, say (either aloud, or to yourself):
"This candle represents protection over my home".
Light the candle and say (either aloud or to yourself):
"As the light of this flame grows, I can feel the light and positive energy around me. As this candle burns, my house is blessed with light and love. Negative energy is being banished. Negative thoughts will be left outside the doors and windows-never to be a part of my home"
Sit back and watch the candle burn. Keep visualizing the yellow ball of light and protection around your home. Envision your diety blessing each corner of the outside and inside of your home. See yourself blessing every corner, inside and out, of your home. Feel the peace and love.
When the candle had burned 1/3 of the way, say:
"As the flame of the candle is extinguishedevil and negativity around me is extinguished"
and blow out the candle.
Repeat this for two more nights.
On the last night, after the candle has burned away and the leftover wax has cooled-, bury the wax in the earth as close to your front door as possible.
Your House has been blessed with Light, Love, and Peace.
