How to clean a house or apartment with a church candle

When to clean your home

The ritual must be performed at least 2–4 times a year. But it’s better to get into the habit of cleaning your home every month. Thanks to this, negative energy will stop accumulating. You will protect yourself and your loved ones.

If you cleanse your house with a church candle 4 times a year or less, you may need an unscheduled ritual. The following signs will indicate that it needs to be carried out:

regular disagreements for minor reasons;
constant problems that haunt all household members at once;
frequent breakdowns of household appliances. When a lot of negative energy accumulates in the house, all electrical appliances begin to malfunction or fail one by one for inexplicable reasons;
a state of complete indifference, powerlessness, melancholy.

You need to clean the house with a church candle after a guest who praised something or simply left an unpleasant impression. And even before the housewarming party. After all, the previous occupants could have left behind not only a clot of negative energy, but also traces of damage and the evil eye. If you do not carry out the ritual, over time all this will pass on to you and your family.

Another reason to walk around the house with a burning church candle is a funeral. This must be done when the deceased is taken to the graveyard in order to remove dead energy.

Restoring our own strength

Now you can congratulate yourself - you have done a great job! But during the energy cleansing, you yourself became a little weaker, and bad energy could also have clung to you.

First of all, you should wash your hands with soap and then with salt. Salt is an ideal remedy to eliminate any negativity.

After this, I recommend taking a bath with sea salt. Be sure to wash your hair. And rinse off in the shower. Running water will remove all remaining bad energy from you.

I remind you that you cannot re-wear the same clothes in which you performed the ritual. It should go in the wash. Wash everything, including socks and underwear.

I guarantee that after the ritual you will feel renewed and fresh. Energy cleaning of the apartment should be done once every six months. But if the need arises, then it can be done more often.

Sometimes there are times when the ritual is difficult. The candle smokes everywhere and constantly goes out. Or maybe different people knocked on your apartment that you weren’t expecting. This may indicate that a complete cleaning was not successful. Perhaps there was too much negativity. In such cases, repeated cleaning is carried out - no earlier than after three days, but no later than after a month.

What kind of candle is it?

Meaning:

material,
size,
color.

Now let's talk about everything in order.

Material

A wax church candle copes well with negative energy. Because wax is a natural material. It will greatly enhance the effectiveness of the ritual. And paraffin analogues are pacifiers, suitable exclusively for decoration.

Size

When buying a church candle, think about how big your house is. Its length should be enough for a very thorough and leisurely cleaning. Do you have any doubts? Then take extra.

Color

If it is chosen correctly, the power of the ritual will increase significantly. It is best to cleanse the house with a classic yellow or orange church candle. Both will open channels of positive energy and remove accumulated negativity.

A brown church candle will help fill your home with an atmosphere of comfort and get rid of illnesses. Pink will establish peaceful, friendly relations. But it is more suitable for romantic rituals.

And professionals work with these candles:

White . Universal candle. Suitable for different occasions.
Black . Fights negativity.
Violet . Gives magical protection.

There are also red church candles. They are almost never used for cleansing rituals. But with their help they attract wealth and success.

Preparing for the cleansing ritual

Do not rush to carry out the magical procedure - first complete the entire preparatory process. We can, without meaning to, be generators of negative energy. For example, when you went to the bus stop in the morning, you met an angry neighbor who was rude to you. It seems like nothing special, but the sediment remains. And you carry this anger within yourself, and at the end of the day you bring it into your home.

Therefore, before completely cleaning the apartment, you must wash off all the astral dirt from yourself. You can take a shower or soak in the bath. A good technique is cleansing with salt. Apply regular table salt all over your body. And then, slowly, so as not to get scratched, wash it off with water.

Never begin the cleaning process while wearing jewelry. They also tend to accumulate foreign energy.

Open all the windows, put on your favorite loungewear and get started. Get rid of unnecessary things - throw them in the trash. Do some general cleaning. One more thing - there should be no one in the house except you.

Now use one of the home cleaning methods suggested below.

What else needs to be prepared for the ceremony?

✔ Holy water . Before starting the ritual, sprinkle all the corners in the house. And then wash your face and hands.

✔ White paper circles with a cutout in the middle. Place them on the candle. This is necessary so that the melted wax, which has absorbed negative energy, does not get on your hands, floor, or furniture.

✔ Matches, lighter . You need to carry them with you. In places where there is a large accumulation of negative energy, the candle may go out. It will need to be lit again.

✔ Small package . When you clean the house, put the cinder and paper circles there to throw away.

Sometimes there is so much negative energy that the church candle goes out and does not light up again. So be sure to keep a few spare ones in your pocket.

Cleansing with salt

Salt, it turns out, has many magical properties. She absorbs negative energy. Experts recommend using it to cleanse your home of all unnecessary things.

Take a carafe (made from natural material) and fill it with salt. Place it in the room where you spend most of your time. Magic powder will not allow negative energy to accumulate around you.

I recommend changing the contents of the decanter every thirty days. It is best to bury the used salt.

Another technique is to heat some salt in a frying pan and go around the entire apartment with it. Don't miss a single corner. After the ritual, you should wipe off the dust and wash the floor.

What places in the house accumulate a lot of negativity?

The most dangerous area is the corners. They must be sprinkled with holy water before the ritual begins. But there are no less significant places that need attention.

Entrance hall, corridor

Many people come home, take off their shoes and forget about them until the next time they go outside. And only a few go to the bathroom to wash it. Thus, they save themselves from grief, lack of money, quarrels and illnesses. After all, this is a breeding ground for negative energy.

Sink

Especially if dirty dishes spend the night there. Unwashed dishes accumulate a lot of negative energy. Therefore, it is better to wash them immediately after eating.

Sleeping area

While waiting for sleep, we often replay the past day in our memory, think about the past, present and future, and make plans. All the negativity from thoughts and dreams remains on the pillow. Therefore, it needs to be cleaned thoroughly.

Mirrors

Reflective surfaces perfectly absorb negative energy that comes from conflicts and unkind thoughts of guests. They need not just be washed, but sprinkled with holy water.

Places to store old, broken and found items

We are talking about areas where worn-out shoes, chipped dishes, torn clothes or bedding lie. It's better to throw it all away. Because the house will gradually begin to fill with negative energy.

The source of increased danger is things found on the street. It's better to avoid them. But if for some reason you could not resist, immediately cleanse them with a church candle and holy water.

Boxes, drawers, shelves with decorations

Precious metals are excellent at absorbing negative energy. It can accumulate in places where they are stored.

Another source of negativity is cut and artificial flowers. Because of them, the house is filled with dead energy. Throw them away and never bring them again. And clean the place where they stood well with a church candle.

During the ritual, listen to your own feelings. You feel your home like no other. Therefore, be sure to find all the places where negative energy accumulates.

Orthodox icons and prayers

The article is complete nonsense and has nothing to do with Orthodoxy. From the point of view of Orthodoxy, the ritual described in it is witchcraft, i.e. an abomination to God. This is exactly what the Bible calls paganism, idolatry, sorcery, witchcraft - an abomination before God. Neo-pagans posing as Orthodox are taught to perform pagan rituals with a blessed candle or with an icon or with a Cross, but they are not Christians at their core, they are Gnostics, their religion is “New Age,” simply put, Satanism. And the worse condemnation will be received by all those “psychics-healers-fortune-tellers” who use Christian shrines for pagan abomination: holy water, blessed candles, icons, the Cross and seducing people to do this with it. All pagan rituals are flirting with demons. Yes, yes, precisely with demons who fool people’s heads, for in the spiritual world there are no nameless “energies”, there are Angels who have remained faithful to God and will always remain in it, and there are fallen angels - demons who will never repent. The task of a demon is to destroy a person, to plunge him into hell, which is intended for Satan and his demons. Hell is not for people, but a person can get there by rejecting Christ: “Then He will also say to those on the left side: Depart from Me, you cursed, into the eternal fire prepared for the devil and his angels:” (Matthew 25:41 ). Hell is not for people! You don't need to go there! Don't engage in neo-pagan abomination! People who engage in neo-pagan spiritual practices end their lives very badly: they cannot stop, they go crazy and many are driven to suicide by demons, i.e. unforgivable sin. And any neo-paganism is essentially unworshipping, Satanism. “For all Gods are the tongue of demons: the Lord made the heavens” (“all the gods of the pagans are demons; the Lord made the heavens”) (Ps. 95: 5), “For all the gods of the nations are idols, but the Lord made the heavens.” (Ps. 95:5). Repent and turn to God in the Holy Trinity, worshiped and glorified! All this “energy-informational nonsense” about “energy-karma-chakra-aura” comes from the neo-pagan, or simply put, the satanic movement of “new age”. Unfortunately, many modern people are indiscriminately ready to believe in anything, because... Many modern people completely lack any discernment in matters of religion. No matter what television shows, no matter what they see in newspapers, on the Internet, they believe everything at the same time, accept everything indiscriminately. They are ready to accept any pagan and, even worse, neo-pagan foolishness, without understanding the danger pagan and neo-pagan teachings pose to humans. Where did such a strange belief in all this neo-pagan nonsense come from? And here's where it comes from. In Soviet times, the official religion was scientific atheism. boring, dry and joyless. During this time, religious feelings went wild very strongly, because there were persecutions against the Orthodox Church, and what was left of the faith among the people was overgrown with such a terrible amount of superstitions that it was simply creepy, but that was not so bad. The trouble began when, with the fall of the Iron Curtain and the collapse of the USSR, streams of preachers of various sects and sects poured into the country, especially neo-pagan ones, preaching the “New Age”, or simply Satanism, all these psychics and sorcerers multiplied like mushrooms after the rain , fortune-tellers, astrologers, gurus, yogis, magicians, among other things, who reinterpreted even old folk superstitions in their own “energy-informational”, “Vedic-fenshuy” way, and the people who were disgusted with scientific atheism, the people whose religious feelings had gone wild during the years of the existence of the state religion - scientific atheism, from one extreme - from atheism, rushed to an even worse extreme - into all-belief and, without understanding, he believes in everything at once, if only it were simpler and more easily digestible. Of course, it was not the people themselves who reached this state; they were cleverly pushed by all these neo-pagan preachers-gurus-yogis-astrologers who filled TV screens, radio stations, the pages of newspapers and magazines, and with the development of the Internet, the Internet. Then the slightly sectarian movement hid for a while, without ceasing to act through the method of consistent and purposeful “brainwashing” little by little, but regularly and consistently, throwing in neo-pagan ideas, consistently and purposefully chattering away any objections to them so that now people began to consider astrology fortune telling, psychics, healers, fortune tellers, feng shui-Vedic fools are the norm. But this is not the norm. All occult teachings are not from the field of science. They are from the realm of religion. But what religion? They are from the neo-pagan movement “new age”, or, simply put, Satanism. Satanists consistently teach people that their religion is the norm, that they need to be modern, believe in horoscopes, meditate, “open their minds,” “cleanse their apartments of negative energy,” believe in all this fengshui-neopagan nonsense. But no, this is not the norm. Sin remains sin. Open your Bible and read. Throughout the Bible, sorcery, fortune telling and other magic, any idolatry is called an abomination before God. For this is the worship of the creature instead of the Creator. Don’t be seduced, people, by the statements of astrologers, magicians, psychics, “healers”, fortune tellers, that, they say, you can remain a Christian and at the same time believe in all the neo-pagan schizoteric nonsense, they are lying, Christianity is diametrically opposed to paganism and is in no way compatible with it. “14 Do not be unequally yoked with unbelievers, for what fellowship has righteousness with iniquity? What does light have in common with darkness? 15 What agreement is there between Christ and Belial? Or what is the complicity of the faithful with the infidel? 16 What is the relationship between the temple of God and idols? For you are the temple of the living God, as God said: I will dwell in them and walk in them; and I will be their God, and they will be My people. 17 Therefore come ye out from among them, and be ye separate, saith the Lord, and touch not the unclean thing; and I will receive you. 18 And I will be a Father to you, and you shall be My sons and daughters, says the Lord Almighty.” (2 Cor. 6:14-18) “For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine, but according to their own desires they will heap up for themselves teachers, having itching ears; and they will turn away their ears from the truth and turn to fables. "(2 Tim. 4:3-4) We live in a time when the number of false prophets is off the charts. Neo-pagan gurus-yogis-magi-astrologers turn everything on its head and call darkness light, deliberately misleading people of little faith, but: “Jesus also said to his disciples: it is impossible not to come to temptations, but woe to him through whom they come; It would be better for him if a millstone were hung around his neck and thrown into the sea, than for him to cause one of these little ones to stumble.” (Luke 17:1-2), “Whoever causes one of these little ones who believe in Me to stumble, it would be better for him if a millstone were hung around his neck and he were drowned in the depths of the sea. Woe to the world from temptations: for temptations must come; but woe to that man through whom temptation comes." (Matthew 18:6-7), "And do not be afraid of those who kill the body, but are not able to kill the soul; but fear him who is able to destroy both soul and body in hell.” (Matthew 10:28), “they are blind leaders of the blind; and if a blind man leads a blind man, both will fall into a pit.” (Matthew 15:14) Satan is destined for eternal destruction: “And the beast was captured, and with him the false prophet, who performed miracles before him, with which he deceived those who had received the mark of the beast and those who worshiped his image: both were thrown alive into the lake of fire, burning with brimstone;” (Rev. 19:20), “and the devil, who deceived them, was cast into the lake of fire and brimstone, where the beast and the false prophet are, and they will be tormented day and night forever and ever.” (Rev. 20:10), do not be deceived by those who were seduced by the devil’s lies - by neo-pagan teachings, neo-pagans, you serve Satan: “Your father is the devil; and you want to do the lusts of your father. He was a murderer from the beginning and did not stand in the truth, for there is no truth in him. When he tells a lie, he speaks his own way, for he is a liar and the father of lies.” (John 8:44) and if you do not repent before death, the fate of those who preached neo-pagan teachings will be terrible: “For such are false apostles, deceitful workers, transforming themselves into the apostles of Christ. And it is not surprising: because Satan himself takes the form of an Angel of light, and therefore it is not a great thing if his servants also take the form of servants of righteousness; but their end will be according to their works.” (2 Cor. 11:13-15) They will receive eternal condemnation along with the devil and the false prophet: “But the fearful and the unbelieving and the abominable and murderers and the fornicators and sorcerers and idolaters and all liars will have their part in the lake that burns with fire and brimstone. This is the second death." (Rev. 21:8) So is the “fashion” for occultism, for all sorts of astrologous-Vedic-yogic-feng-shui-meditative nonsense, worth going to eternal destruction? No, it's not worth it. Therefore, while there is time, if anyone has been seduced by satanic neo-pagan teachings, repent before death, for then repentance will be impossible, there will be no reincarnations, all teachings about reincarnations are satanic lies: “it is appointed for men to die once, and then the judgment” (Heb. 9:27) ". Don’t be fooled by newfangled fools, because the price here is a person’s fate in eternity: “... what good does it benefit a person if he gains the whole world, but loses his soul? or what ransom will a man give for his soul?” (Matthew 16:26) Do not be seduced, people, by the statements of astrologers, magicians, psychics, that, they say, you can remain a Christian and at the same time believe in all the neo-pagan schizoteric nonsense, they lie, Christianity is diametrically opposed to paganism and is in no way compatible with it. “But the fearful, the unbelieving, the abominable, the murderers, the fornicators, the sorcerers, the idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake that burns with fire and brimstone. This is the second death." (Rev. 21:8) Consider whether it is worth throwing yourself into eternal destruction in order to appear fashionable and “feng shui.” Lord Jesus Christ, Son of God, give understanding to all erring people!

How to properly prepare your home for cleaning with a church candle

The ritual must be planned in advance. Ideally, it will pass on the waning moon. Favorable lunar days:

19th.
23rd.
26th.
29th. If it is followed by the 30th but not the 1st.

This recommendation can be ignored only in one case. If the matter is urgent and there is no time to wait.

Before the ritual, you need to do some general cleaning. Clean up your closets and drawers. Be sure to wash the windows, sprinkle corners and mirrors with holy water.

During cleaning, only you should be in the house or apartment. If this is not possible, first walk through several rooms with a candle, ask your household members to go there, and then continue the ritual.

When you're ready to clean, open the door or window. Close them only after you are finished. This way, negative energy will leave the house and not move from room to room.

Turn off all electrical appliances, phones, doorbell. Nothing should distract from the ritual.

Signs of accumulation of negativity in a room

In any home, the negativity that gradually accumulates due to various troubles makes living uncomfortable.

Relations between residents become more tense, and friction, misunderstandings, and resentments often arise. You don’t want to return to an apartment like this in the evening after work. Intimate life between spouses deteriorates.

Furniture, even arranged according to Feng Shui, often breaks, dishes break, flowers wither and grow poorly. This apartment urgently needs energy cleaning.

How to clean a house or apartment yourself with a church candle

You showered, put on the right clothes and got ready. What to do next?

✔ Wet your hands and face with holy water.

✔ Place a paper circle on the candle.

✔ Go out to the area or landing. The ritual must begin outside.

✔ Light the candle with matches or a lighter.

✔ Circle the front door three times in a clockwise circular motion. Then pass the candle over the peephole, handle and doorbell (if there is one) three times in a strictly crosswise manner.

✔ Enter the house. Close the door behind you. Turn to face her and do the same.

✔ Stand with your back to the door. Start moving forward clockwise. Go through all the rooms until you return to the front door again. You can skip the balcony. But only if it is not converted into residential premises. The candle should be moved along the walls in a wave-like manner. And clean door handles and sockets crosswise.

If in some place the flame begins to worry, smoke or go out, pause. You have found an accumulation of negative energy. It needs to be cleaned with a church candle until the fire burns evenly and calmly.

During the ritual, adhere to fire safety rules. Keep flames away from things, especially those that are flammable. For better effect, you can open cabinets, pull out drawers of chests of drawers, tables.

When you have walked around the entire house and returned to the front door, turn around and perform the ritual again. After this, the flame should not go out or smoke. Otherwise, repeated cleaning will be required.

How to properly throw away a used candle

So, you are back to your original spot near the front door. The entire apartment has already been processed. Cross the front door three times again, but now only from the inside. Once again, mentally drive away all the bad things. Then close the front door (it was ajar before, remember?). And put out the candle.

If you did not leave the front door open, then open it slightly and do what is written in the previous paragraph.

Often in rituals it is recommended not to blow out the candle, but to extinguish it in another way. For example, press the flame with something. Just not with your hands. However, even if you blow on the candle and thus extinguish it, it’s not scary.

The question arises: where to put the candle after cleaning the apartment? When the church candle is extinguished, you can put it along with the “umbrella” in a pre-prepared bag. If you used gloves, throw them in the bag too. Within an hour, this bag should be taken out of the house for trash.

Why bless the room?

Many people are surprised to receive information about the purification of space if a poltergeist or ghost does not live there. But there are apartments or houses that are very uncomfortable to be in. This inexplicable feeling of psychological discomfort does not go away for a minute: you want to get out into the fresh air as soon as possible. An unpleasant atmosphere may be caused by damage to the house, which has begun its destructive effect. Perhaps there is an object in the room that contains a curse or damage. Also, a heavy atmosphere is felt when there is a curse, an evil eye, or when a seriously ill person is found.

In what cases is it necessary to consecrate a space:

after the funeral of one of the relatives;
after a serious illness of household members or pets;
if there are regular scandals or fights in the house;
if there is an alcoholic/drug addict in the house;
after an accident in this premises;
after purchasing secondary housing;
when moving to a rented premises.

Esotericists recommend cleaning the room even if a water pipe leaks or another breakdown occurs in the room. This does not happen by pure chance, but is always associated with energy breaches or a targeted energy attack. It is also recommended to bless the apartment after a noisy party with drinking and feasting.

Sometimes breakdowns in the apartment appear one after another: just after the refrigerator was repaired, the washing machine broke down. Behind the washing machine, the TV broke down, a mirror fell from the wall, etc. This is the result of an energy imbalance, and not a simple chain of accidents. There are no accidents in our world of cause and effect, just like there is no smoke without fire.

In addition to church consecration, there are other types of energetic cleansing of an apartment - by the elements, smoke of herbs, fire and water. These methods work well for unchurched people. For believers, it is best to invite a priest to perform the consecration ceremony at home.

But you should not call the priest from the church to consecrate the apartment if you intend to continue your sinful life. First you need to cleanse your soul with repentance and communion, and then consecrate your home.

What premises should not be consecrated?

If dishonest business is being conducted on the premises or the law is being violated, then such places cannot be sanctified with the help of church attributes. Premises where tobacco and alcohol are sold or consumed, bookmakers and casinos are not sanctified.

Anyone who dares to sanctify demonic places with holy water and a church candle will incur the wrath of God. If you still need to cleanse the space, it is better to use neutral methods: cleansing with the smoke of herbs, the fire of a non-church candle.

Black candle rituals

Black candles are used to expel all negativity, forgetting past sorrows and breaking up obsolete relationships; help to experience misfortunes, are suitable for parting rituals, removing damage and mental protection, getting rid of negativity.

It is especially good to light black candles after quarrels and conflicts in the house. During energy cleansing of the house, you cannot extinguish the candle; it must burn out on its own. Black candles can also be used for meditation, esoteric and magical rituals and practices, spells, and fortune telling with Tarot cards.

Black candles are used to expel all negative oblivion of past sorrows and break up obsolete relationships

There are three directions in magic where you can use a black candle for cleansing; protection; fulfillment of dreams. Targeted rituals using a black candle help to put not only protection and blocks on negativity, but also on evil messages and slander. Getting rid of the evil eye, damage that has already been done, is also carried out with the help of a black candle. Rituals with black candles are carried out to get rid of diseases.

House Cleansing Prayer

There are other ways to cleanse your home of negative energy. We will consider further how to cleanse the house with the help of prayers. The Lord's requests for help always have a response if they come from a pure heart. Therefore, prayers are a reliable talisman; they protect not only a person, but also help preserve peace and tranquility in the home and family. Also, in order for a prayer to be heard, you must believe in every word spoken to God.

Prayer to Nikolai Ugodnik

It is better for such a ritual to be performed by a priest, but it is also possible to carry out the cleansing of the house yourself. For the process you will need not only words of prayer, but also prepare candles and an icon of St. Nicholas . You can buy candles and an icon in the temple. Be sure to clean the house before the ceremony.

Light a candle, take the icon and start cleaning the house from the front door. Walk in a circle, through all the rooms, read the prayer, especially pay attention to the corners where the candle will smoke and crackle. Stop and read the prayer until the candle flame becomes even. Only then move further around the house. Go through all the rooms in the house, do not ignore dressing rooms and storage rooms. When you have gone around everything, go out the door of the house, only after this the rite of purification is considered completed.

Prayer to Nicholas the Wonderworker for cleansing the house

I bow to you, Great Nicholas the Wonderworker! Your miracles have always helped earthly people. I ask for help too. Cleanse my home from all the filth that my enemies, my enemies, have sent:

From hatred, envy, malice.
From quarrels, the evil eye.
From incurable diseases, lack of money, poverty.
From diabolical addictions: alcohol, social networks, gambling addiction, drugs, obsessions.

Let the burning of candles and holy water cleanse my house. Great Nicholas the Wonderworker, bless our home with peace, peace, love, let only respect and mutual understanding reign in it! Glory to you, Great Nicholas the Wonderworker, Father, Son, Holy Spirit! Amen!

Please note : Leave the candles that did not burn out when cleaning the house to burn out in front of the icon of St. Nicholas until they burn out completely, sprinkle the room of the house with holy water, and read the Our Father prayer.
