need some space clearing procedures

[johnf]

I tried to find earlier threads on this , but couldn't.

I have a friend who has moved into a new house with noises, precenses, etc.

And they need some directions for clearing the house and yard.

So smudging etc.

What procedure should be used depends on what is causing the noises and heavy atmosphere. However, a good general space clearing process is physical cleaning followed by noise and smudging.

Set aside an afternoon and physically clean the house (sweep, dust, etc) with the following intention: "I am cleaning this house of all dark energies and presences." Saying this out loud is very helpful and effective.

After physically cleaning the space, go into every room and make noise in every corner of every room. I have a shamanic ceremonial rattle for this but banging on a pot with a wooden spoon also works well. You could also use bells. I suggest opening a window in each room and saying out loud "all dark energies, spirits and entities must immediately leave this home, never to return" while you are cleansing the room with the sound waves.

Finally, prepare a big smoky bowl of sage smudge. I have mine in a small iron cauldron with a handle so it is easy to carry around. Make sure there is lots of smoke and turn off the smoke detectors first (haha). Also, make sure windows are open in each room. The open window gives the spirits a way to leave! (it also helps air the room out from the smoke). Go into each room and physically walk into each corner, each closet, each nook and cranny of the room. Make sure the smoke gets into all the corners. As you are thoroughly smudging the room say out loud, very forcefully "This home is our sovereign property. All dark energies, spirits and entities must immediately leave this home, never to return. This home is a place of light and peace and love."

I have done this process many times and it is very effective.

Ask Christ to remove them if they are harmful to the family. Contact a "good" preacher/priest and have them put Holy Water throughout the home, and at the front door and attic, reciting the Lords prayer to allow light in the home from God to deal with the spirit that still dwells. Tell the spirit this home is filled with Loves Holy Light of God and if they aren't comfortable with it, they have to leave in peace. Send them to the light by the window by smudge. If the presence isn't exhibiting violatile behaviors to the family, perhaps, they can have someone listen to who it is or identify it by past historical tenants who may have died there, and the crime unsolved. Sometimes missing children return to the family home, long after their parents have moved away in grief.

Good Mantra Here:
Mother/Father/God, bless this house and all who live here. Fill this dwelling with an ambience of peace, prosperity, health, happiness, harmony and love. Let this space shine with divine light and beauty and provide a warm, comfortable haven from the world. May only beings that are kind-hearted and well-intentioned enter here. May nature's spirits feel welcome and live with us as friends. May all who enter here receive what they need, and feel richly blessed with their heart's desires.


There are countless ways to clear your home, here are a few easy and effective methods that anyone can use.

Spring Cleaning - cleaning out your home, opening all of the doors, windows, cupboards and drawers, letting the sunshine and fresh air in and brushing out the cobwebs is a very effective method of clearing. While you have everything open, take your broom and gently brush the walls right throughout, behind the doors, in wardrobes and so on. Heavy energy is palpable and so can often be cleared out by breaking it up with a broom. For a really good clearing, pull stuff out of wardrobes, clear out clutter (gunky energy loves hanging on to stuff we hang on to but no longer need - the two things have similar resonance). Whilst all of this is happening, play lively music, dance and play - all of this is light-generating and is unbearable for negative energy.

Light Work - Cup your hands together to create a closed off cave and imagine your house in the cave. Now imagine angels are flooding the house with light, dissolving away the muck. See the light getting right into the fibres of the wood and other materials the house is made of (carpet, metal, etc) dissolving all the hidden build up of grime and heavy energy. If you still feel the house needs more cleansing, do the same thing, but with just one room at a time in your hands.

Smoke and Noise - Go to your local Mystical supplies shop and pick up a smudge wand of sage. Hold a small ceremony where you set the intention of cleansing negative energy, restoring your home to the Light. Once the sage wand is smouldering, dedicate the smoke to Divine Light (according to your beliefs). Then, move through your home room by room, brushing the sage smoke around the walls, in the nooks and crannies, everywhere. You can also use a drum and bell to break up the negative energy and then use the smoke to brush it away.

Before and after any cleansing work, make sure you clear your own energy using the same technique - for the Spring Clean, have a shower, for the Light Work, imagine yourself in the cave being flooded with light and for the 'Smoke and Noise' - brush the sage smoke through your own energy field.

This subject is wide and diverse and can so easily become a study of lifetimes, however the purpose of this article is to provide a few simple versions of commonly used procedures for most people to use without having to train indepth. Remember, if you feel out of your depth, then commission a professional Energy Surgeon or Shaman (for example) to do the work for you. Many Energy Surgeons can work long distance and don't need to be present in your home to complete the task (no matter how serious the problem may have become). But for simple, regular clearing, most people are perfectly capable of doing the work themselves.

Smudging to Clear Negative Energy

Negative energy can make your home feel dense and heavy. Smudging is the practice of using an herb or combination of herbs to create a cleansing smoke that will allow these energies to be removed. The smoke attracts and absorbs this energy. As the smoke dissipates, the energy dissipates as well.

“It has been scientifically noted that the smoke from the practice of Smudging has the potential of seizing the positive ion in the air molecule and extracting it.

The positive ion in the air molecule is the electric charge that is harmful to your health. You come across it in places that are heavily polluted or that have been closed for a long time without air. On the other hand, the negative ion is beneficial for your health. After an electric storm it exists in abundance, because flashes of lightening free thousands of millions of negative ions into the air. This is why the air is so invigorating following a storm.

Burning Sage, Cedarwood and/or Sweetgrass remove the positive ions and leave only the healthy negative ions.” American Indian Secrets of Crystal Healing by Luc Bourgault

More Here:
Buildings absorb the energy of the people who live in them and the events that happen there. I believe that everyone can sense energy in the atmosphere of a place. For example, we associate places that are dark, dirty, and decrepit with a creepy feeling, and these are the very conditions that negative astral entities find most attractive.

Physical objects also absorb the energy of the people who own them, wear them or use them. The more something is worn or used, the more energy it absorbs. Some materials are more "porous" than others, and some "hold a charge" better than others. For example, metal holds a charge very well. This is why psychics can hold a piece of jewelry and tell you about the person who owned it. Wedding bands, watches and other items that are worn daily are ideal for psychometry work.

Moving into a house that has absorbed the energy of people who were very different from you in vibration will naturally make you feel uneasy. Since the house is a foreclosure, the former residents were no doubt really stressed when they left. If they fought a lot or suffered a great deal (as with people who die in a space after a long illness), you may actually pick up the emotions they left behind and begin to feel like you're "not yourself," especially if you're not conscious of what is happening.

Your awareness of how this house feels is a blessing. Feeling "dirty" is indeed a reflection that you've picked something up from the atmosphere. Just as driving down a dusty road will leave our cars covered with film, when we move through a space where lots of old energy has settled, we'll stir it up, and if we're not careful, it will get all over us.

The good news is that whether you do anything or not, if you buy this house and move in, it will immediately start to release its old charge and absorb your vibration. Just cleaning the house physically will go a long way. You mentioned painting and re-carpeting, which are great ideas. Getting rid of the old carpet would release stale energy, and painting would not only freshen things up, it would allow you to mark your territory with your personal color choices.

The more chi you get moving, the faster the house will shift in vibration. Again, comparing old energy to dust, imagine what would happen if you moved in, plopped your stuff down, and didn't do another thing: you'd be living with all that old dust for a long time. If instead you come in and start cleaning, opening the windows, running fans and washing down walls, you'll stir up that old energy and clear it out of there.

Because you don't like the energy of the house now, I recommend you get rid of everything the previous owners left behind. If they left any furniture or other objects, sell, donate or recycle them. If you can afford new window treatments, get rid of those too. Replace anything cosmetic that you don't like such as paint, wallpaper, etc. This will go a long way in shifting the atmosphere toward your own vibration.

Since the existing climate there is so uncomfortable for you, I recommend you start your clearing work on a psychic level. Physical intangibles such as sounds, smells, smoke, light, thoughts/prayers, etc., have a strong impact on the astral, so these will be your key tools in this endeavor.

First, open all the blinds to let as much light into the house as possible. You might also leave spiritual music playing in the house all the time, whether you're there or not. Then smudge the house of negative energy with sage. (Light a sage bundle and blow out the flame, and then walk through the house, sweeping the fragrant sage smoke over every wall, door, window, nook and cranny. As you do this, imagine that any astral residue is being burned off, and in your wake, everything is clean and shiny.)

If you're Catholic and this doesn't feel right to you, you can do the same thing with holy water. Get some from your priest and sprinkle it as you go, or better yet, have your priest over to bless the house. I've also heard that burning orange peels is especially effective for clearing out the energy of former residents.

Plants are also great for creating fresh, positive energy. Just as plants transmute carbon dioxide into oxygen, they can transform negative energy into positive. Anything vital and beautiful will contribute to a positive atmosphere. Continuously running water is another great way to get chi flowing and keep it moving; this is why fountains create such a fresh, soothing vibe.

You can also use crystals to magnify your efforts. If you want to create a peaceful feeling, for example, you might put a big amethyst geode on a windowsill, or if you want to brighten the atmosphere, hang a crystal in the window to refract sunlight. Some people even bury quartz crystals in the corners of their property to create a "force field" designed to keep their good energy in, and anything not in harmony with their energy "out."

A housewarming is another great idea, but make sure you only invite people who embody the mood you want in your house. Enlist a friend or minister to lead your guests in a prayer to fill your new home with great energy. Here's a house blessing I wrote just for you. I recommend you print it out and hang it up wherever it feels appropriate - perhaps on the back of your front door. Please note that while the combined energy of your friends and loved ones is powerful, you should also call upon a higher power to bless your house, whether that higher power is Jesus or nature spirits or some other force of love and light.

Thanks folks, I'll share these with my friend to see what fits their needs best.
The animals, and people who are usually interested in metaphysical stuff are obviously reacting to the noises etc.
It seems to range into the poltergeisty range from what they have been saying.
But there seems to be definite intentions to cause fear going on,and the house has had a lot of owners over a short period of time.
Again plenty here to work with thanks.
