Thankfully, we haven’t had much cause to use a home protection spell jar in the coven (thankfully), but sometimes high magick work can attract the wrong sort of energy, so we have a couple in the Grimoire. Simple rituals to create a spell jar that is best kept above a doorway or near a main entrance.
These ensure your home remains a sanctuary of positive energy and a fortress against unwanted influences. So, let’s delve into the enchanting world of spell jars and learn how to create our protective charms to shield our sacred spaces from any negativity that may come our way. 🏠✨
You can also take a more direct approach with a home protection spell and leave the jar for its lasting effect.
I do caution you against using this ritual without the right intent. If the results are important to you, make sure you take our magick ability test so we can pinpoint your innate strengths before casting.
