You will need:
Black candle. This is to dispel negative energies.
Black tourmaline crystal - this transmutes into positive energies.
Jet - to absorb negative energies.
Sage and Rosemary bundle to burn as incense for cleansing.
Cloves - may be burned for protection and to purify the energy of the area that the ritual is to be held also.
Set these items up on your working altar or a small table in the middle of the room.
Circle casting:
Standing at your altar, light the candle and incense and say the following:
"Here I stand in this sacred space
Our energies are connected
By the powers of the elements that reside
This circle is now protected!"
Calling in the quarters:
Element of Air, I call upon you in this ritual
Show me positive thinking so that I may banish all negative thoughts.
Teach me the knowledge of freedom so that I may protect myself
Hail and Welcome!
Element of Fire, I Call upon you in this ritual
Bring with you your fiery force, teaching me to protect what is ours.
Show me your will-power and drive so that I may stand our ground.
Hail and Welcome!
Element of Water, I call upon you in this ritual
Bring with you your purification so that I may wash away negative energies
Teach me intuition so that I may be guided and protected.
Hail and Welcome!
Element of Earth, I call upon you in this ritual
Bring with you your focus and your strength so that I can be guided in my quest for protection.
Show me stability and wisdom so that I may stand our ground.
Hail and Welcome!
Depending on what you need the protection for, you can do the following:
House protection - sprinkle black salt into each corner of the home. Smudging with the sage and rosemary bundle into the corner of each room also has the same effect.
Sit and focus on the lighted candle. Visualise the candle flame spreading out to protect every room in your house. This can also be used for self protection too! If you need protection from a person, write their name on a piece of paper, light it with the candle flame and place in a fireproof dish to burn out. Visualise being protected from that person as the paper burns away.
