Home Blessings Cleaning Spray: A Spell for Purified, Happy Home

Most purification or cleansing work we see on social media involves smoke cleansing.


I think this is just doubling your work. Plus, once I had my baby, I had to keep the smoke to a minimum for her health.


So, I doubled down on implementing purification and other spells into daily tasks.


Hence, my cleaning sprays. I always create different ones depending on what my intuition tells me I need, but this one is excellent for spring.


The use of Rosemary, Lemon, and Mint not only brings in a fresh, citrusy energy, but it will also bring in a sense of comfort, happiness, and a clean slate, perfect for a spring rebirth.





Options & Notes

Infusions can be tricky, and this spray has the same issues, so please take note of these suggestions before creating your spray.

  1. Dried or Fresh Herbs - You can use either in your infusion, but take note that fresh herbs have a higher risk of creating mold because they hold water. This means that you will want to take extra care in ensuring that the herbs are always covered with alcohol or vinegar, the lid is screwed on tight, and you shake the infusion every couple of days.

  2. Keeping Herbs in Infusion—If you don't want to worry as much, wait to use your spray for a couple of weeks. Keep the infusion in an airtight jar in a dark cupboard. After about four weeks, remove the herbs from the infusion. If you choose to use the spray while keeping the herbs in the infusion, ensure that the herbs are always covered with vinegar or alcohol and that you shake the infusion every couple of days.

  3. Essential Oils—To enhance the scent of your kitchen spray, add a few drops of essential oils of your choice. Do note that the longer your infusion infuses, the stronger the scent of the herbs will be.

  4. Diluting - If you want to make your spray less strong, you can cut it in half with water. If you do this, however, you will want to ensure the herbs are not kept in the infusion. This means you will need to allow the herbs to infuse in alcohol or vinegar for about 4 weeks, and strain out the herbs before you dilute the solution. Otherwise, you will likely end up with a moldy solution.

Ingredients and Their Magickal Properties - Kitchen Magick

As I always mention in my recipe posts, the purpose of my work as a kitchen witch relies on knowledge and intention.


Yes, this recipe will still taste delicious without transforming it into a spell. However, knowing your ingredients is essential to utilizing this recipe to help change your mind, body, and spirit.


Below is a list of each added ingredient and its extraordinary power for this recipe. Please note that this is not every magical benefit of this plant or herb; these are just the areas I believe should be focused on for this specific recipe.


Lemons

Although lemons are great for purifying, their attribute of love and happiness makes them extra helpful in cleansing spells.


Not only are we using lemons to remove negative energy, but we also have it invite in that love and happiness we want our cozy homes to feel.


Magickal Powers: Purification, Love, Happiness


Rosemary

Rosemary has been used for purification and keeping one healthy for ages in both occult and folk medicine practices. It is one of the main ingredients of our beloved Four Thieves vinegar, and for a good reason.


Our "dew of the sea" is antiseptic, antibacterial, and antifungal, creating a solid cleansing alley.


The sun energy of our rosemary helps us invite protection, healing, and love into our home.


Note: If you work with Aphrodite, it also makes an excellent offering.


Magickal Powers: Nourishment, Pampering


Peppermint

Peppermint is my absolute favorite herb for cleaning. It is antimicrobial, and its scent renews, refreshes, and aids in clarity. Its magickal attributes also lend themselves to purification and are known for raising vibrations.


Peppermints' masculine energy can bring us purification, raised vibrations, renewal, and happiness. Making it the perfect addition to a home blessings cleaning spray.


Magickal Uses: Purification, Raised Vibrations, Renewal, Happiness
