New Year Cleansings

Asperging is the practice of sprinkling liquids upon a person or thing to spiritually cleanse it. You might also (gently) smack a person's body with herbs that have been dipped in cleansing liquids as an asperging. This type of cleansing offers some of the same benefits as a smoke cleanse.

Different herbs and waters have different cleansing properties, but here are a few to get you started.

Waters:
  • Ocean Water - collect ocean water on the first day of the year in a clean glass container. Use this water to cleanse your home and asperge yourself with a sprig of rosemary.
  • Moon Water - put a glass bowl of water out on the night of a full moon. The moon will charge this water and you can then use it for asperging.
  • Rain Water - collect rain and store it in a jar. This is a great water for cleansing and can be use to make infusions too.
  • Dew - dew isn't easy to collect, you don't get very much for a large amount of work, but it is an excellent cleansing water.
  • Rose of Jericho Water - we featured this water in our blog from last month. It can be used as a asperging water.

Herbs
  • Peppermint - make a peppermint infusion. When the water is cool, use a sprig of peppermint to asperge yourself or your home.
  • Pine - cut up bits of your holiday tree for asperging. You can use salted water or make an infusion with sprigs of your holiday tree.
  • Juniper and Yarrow - make an infusion of juniper and yarrow. This water can be used to cleanse yourself and your living space.
  • Rosemary - plan rosemary sprigs or rosemary infusions are great for asperging.

And so much more......what are your favorites?

Rose of Jericho Blessed Water

A Rose of Jericho has many magickal uses. It can be used in prosperity spells, abundance work, calling in love, blessings, cleansing, protection, and tranquility. Not only does the actual rose contain these magickal properties, but you can also make a blessed water to use any time you need an extra boost of magick.

You will need: a Rose of Jericho, a jar, and water

Draw the rune Fehu on the lid of your jar and save it for later.

Take a dried Rose of Jericho plant and place it in a bowl of water. The plant will "resurrect". The water will need to be changed regularly, but don't throw out the old water. Instead, save up that water as blessed water.

​Pour the water into your jar. You can add a bit of alcohol to help it last longer.

Dream Stimulation Bath

Full moons are an excellent time to ask for divinatory dreams, but sometimes dreaming can be a challenge. A pre-bedtime bath can help to jump start dreams and bring forth the magick. 

For this bath you will need:
2 cups of mugwort tea*
4 dried bay leaves*
2 cups Epsom Salt

Draw a warm bath and add in all of the items. Light some candles, play some soft music and let yourself relax. After your bath immediately go to bed. Keep a journal nearby in case you wake up and need to write down any dreams you remember.

*DO NOT USE any ingredients if you are allergic or uncertain of any allergic reaction.

Blessing Oil

Blessing Oil can be used for healing, protection, and for calling in general positive energy. The oil can be used to anoint candles, magickal charms or objects, and even yourself. (Just make sure you aren't allergic to any of the ingredients, if you don't know, it's better to not use it.)

You will need a base oil of Olive, Jojoba, or Grapeseed. You will also need frankincense resin, benzoin incense, and kosher salt.

Get a small glass container and fill it almost full. Grind up three large chunks of each of the resins until they are a fine powder and add this powder to the oil. Finally add a liberal pinch of kosher salt.

Close the lid of the jar.

Shake the oil while speaking your prayers out loud. It is best to speak from the heart, but if you struggle with what to say try this:
I charge this oil for blessing and peace
I charge this oil for blessing and healing
I charge this oil for blessing and protection
By the power of three times three
As I will it, so mote it be!

Use this oil to bring blessings!

Unblocking Spell

When you are in a situation where you are stuck, emotionally blocked, or feel overloaded work this spell to help clear the way. This spell is best performed at the ocean or a river. A place with living waters. Collect a bowl of living water and find a place where you can be along and undisturbed. Cry into the bowl collecting your tears and letting them mix with the living water. When you can't cry any more take the bowl of water back to the ocean or river and pour it out, releasing your blocks along with it. If you find yourself challenged to cry, let yourself emote in other ways, scream, moan, whine, get it out.

Broom Cleansing Spell

As we step deeper into spring why not perform a spring cleansing. For this spell you will be creating a broom, but it will only be used for the ritual and then released. You will need to be creative with the herbs that you use. It's best to use what you have access to in your own yard or neighborhood. 

Collect a combination of the following herbs and plants: cedar, fennel, rosemary, hyssop, sage, bay, or anything else that you can easily access near you.

Find yourself a long stick. If you want to pay attention to the type of wood for magickal purposes this is totally great! But not required. Use what you have.

Tie the herbs and plants to one end of the stick.

Combine salt and water. Sprinkle this over the newly created cleansing broom.

Sweep your space, get the ground, the corners, and the ceiling. Don't leave any part of your space out!

When you are finished take the broom away from your home. You can disassemble it, releasing the pieces back to the wild. You can also release it into running water or bury it.

Healing Pomander Spell

Pomanders are often seen during the winter holidays, but they have a long history of magick and healing spell work. For this spell you will need the following items:
​
-An orange or grapefruit
-Cloves
-Ground cinnamon
-Red ribbon

Hold the orange in your hand and whisper to it your goal, whether that is healing, protection, or immune building. Hold the cloves in your hand and do the same, telling the cloves your goal. Sprinkle the cinnamon out on a flat surface and draw any symbols or sigils into the powder.

Pierce the skin of the orange with the cloves. Each time state your intention out loud. You may want to create a design or symbol with the cloves or just fill up as much of the skin as you can. When you are finished roll the orange in the cinnamon, again, stating your intention out loud.

Finally wrap the orange in the red ribbon and hand it in a doorway or as close to your front door as possible.
