Hi, I’m relatively new to paganism. I have been studying it off and on for the past few years. I don’t feel that I know enough about it to practice (I wouldn’t want to do anything that would be dangerous), however I have noticed that my bedroom has a very negative energy to it (to such a degree that I don’t really feel comfortable sleeping there). So I was wondering if anyone could recommend to me a safe way for someone very inexperienced in any kind of magic to clean up this energy (I have a sensitive respiratory system, too, so smudging would probably not be a good option, for me). Thanks, -Bubble
Several suggestions. First, the mundane one. Clean the room top to bottom, and move/clean beneath every item in the room. Perhaps rearrange the furniture. Salt has traditionally been used in cleansing. Tossing a pinch in each corner, with proper intent, may prove helpful. If you feel it needs something more dramatic, cut a white potato into halves. Place one half in each of opposite corners of the room, and leave them there for three days. Preferrably done under a waning moon. Then remove the potato halves, put them in a container of some sort, such as a box or bag, and bury them, somewhere off of your property, preferrably a wild place. Other methods can be employed, such as beating gongs to drive out negative spirits, special washes such as Florida water, the lesser banishing ritual of the pentacle, and more. It's hard to make a call on this since you'll have to assess the situation first. When in doubt, seek experienced help locally. Someone who's done purifications or banishings before.
Read up on feng Shui, but pay more attention to the concepts than to the particulars. What works in China may not work exactly the same way here, but the concept is still valid.
i always recommend burning sage all over the room, while saying some incantations of your own envisioning light, warmth, and goodness to help create more positive energy. it seems to help me a lot. good luck!
Lay naked covered in crystals saying the OM mantra........ Or clean up...like suggested...burn some sage....and hope for the best.... do you think it is energy...or spirit...cause its a whole seperate deal if its the later.. edit....due to respitory problems...smoke the sage...good for the lungs...for asthma and such.. anti-inflammitory......I dont think energies and spirits much give a damn about respitory problems...so some things cant be substituted....
Sometimes, a bad vibe comes from a good spirit leading you to a new place when you are complacent and do not want to leave the place you are (or were) in. These 'places' that I speak of are not just physical locations, but can be spiritual locations as well ('where' you are spiritually/mentally inside your self).
I love this, so true. Many times I get an eerie feeling that I'm being watched or like I'm not doing something right. Then, I realize, maybe I'm just worried of situational outcome. Ever read the book "Who Mooved My Cheese?" Kind of that senerio. Anyway, I'm a little fucked up right now, hope this makes sence cause in my blurred mind, it still dosen't make too much sence. Peace Bitch!
