Step 1 to settling into a new house: Energetic &
Space Clearing Ritual. These are so personal - mine includes lighting a flame, burning a USDA organic/sustainable sage smudge stick, this one lovingly gifted by the dear @ritualsaustin - while singing (yes, that’s right) positive intentions and words throughout the house in every room. Sage is said to ‘wash off’ the outside world when used in ceremony. For me this sets up the intention of how we want our home to feel and what we want to call into our personal space. Love. Peace. Harmony. Laughter. Communication. Intimacy. Openness. Abundance. Health. Happiness. I ring my Tibetan bells in every room for sound clearing and finally burn palo santo in each room. Then I open all the windows and let the air circulate, bringing new movement & Qi into the house. I say a short prayer of gratitude and intention and blow out my candle. So now you probably think I’m a total new age nut - but I’ve done a space clearing for every house I’ve ever lived in - this one being the most important to our family yet. Feels good to have it done! #clearings #puttingitoutthere #stayweird 😍
