Space Clearing Practices for You

You can use space-clearing practices in your rooms, your home and your office.
You will find when you do this, any surrounding energies that may have become heavy and imbalanced will become lighter. Remember in particular that rooms that will benefit from space clearing are ones that have been previously occupied with someone very ill or if someone in the family has died.

Try to develop a routine to your space-clearing practices so that the energy surrounding you never becomes too stale. Space clearing once every few weeks should be enough and complete space purification can be done twice a year and at least once before the start of the new year.

Here are some guidelines to keep in mind: 

1. Be aware that what you are doing is space clearing and not space enhancing.
2. Think seriously and focus on what you are doing
3. Relax and understand that you are just clearing the energies around you. You are not praying to or invoking any spirits at this time. This is very important.
4. Do all space-clearing activities in the morning after the sun has risen. Do not do space clearing after sunset.
5. Never do space clearing on a rainy or cloudy day. You will always get better results when precious natural yang energy is available from the morning sun.
6. Don’t perform space-clearing rituals for others. The energy of their space does not belong to you. This will protect you from being inadvertently hurt by hostile spirits that might be present. In space clearing we are addressing only the invisible energy lines that affect our personal well-being.

Do space clearing on a sunny day

There are many ways do space clearing and improve the quality of the energy around you such as burning fragrant incense, chanting mantras, the rice and salt ritual (especially good when moving into a new home or office), using air and sunshine, using sound (bells, bowls or clanging cymbals), using light (especially when energy has become very yin). It can be as simple or elaborate as you like. Do whatever feels comfortable and right for you.
