What you'll need
A bundle of dried herbs you can safely burn (rosemary and sage both work — see the herb library for others), or a bowl of salt water and a cloth if you'd rather not use smoke, plus a window you can open.

Words to speak
“What's stagnant here, move on. What's heavy here, lighten. This space is mine to keep clear.”
Say them as written, or put them in your own words — sincerity matters more than exact phrasing.
How to do it
Open a window first. If using smoke, light the bundle, let it smolder (not flame), and carry it slowly through each room, paying extra attention to corners and closets, saying the words as you go. If using salt water, wipe doorframes and windowsills instead. Either way, finish at the front door, as if sweeping the old energy out.
Safety
- Never leave a candle or flame unattended. Burn paper only in a fireproof dish, away from curtains, pets and children.
- Salt can harm plants, soil, pets and some floors — keep it in a dish or sweep it up promptly.
- Spells support real-world action; they don't replace medical, legal, financial or safety help.
