Recipe: Black Salt

I made this on the day after the new moon in Capricorn. This batch includes the bay leaves I burned yesterday.

Ingredients:

  • smudge ashes (holds the intentions of whatever herbs you’ve burned with intention, plus the added power of the element of fire)
  • salt (for protection)
  • powdered cinnamon (for protection and also abundance)

Process:

Mix all the ingredients together.

Uses:

  • Black salt sweep: sprinkle this black salt on the floor in your house and then sweep it up. Do just the room with your altar, or do the whole house. Repeat a memorized mantra or prayer while you do this. Psalm 91 works well as a home blessing, or Psalm 122:7 for a business, or Psalm 146:5-9 for a charitable business.
  • Use this in any protection, hex, or banishing spell that calls for black salt
