Purify yourself of negative energy and empower yourself to move forward in your life with these 5 simple rituals for cleansing, clearing, and unblocking.
If you’re a little under the energetic weather, you want to get someone’s energy out of your field, or you just need to get your energy clear, these rituals can help.
(Also be sure to perform regular meditations like this one and to check out my book, Little Guide to Protection Magic.)
Remember: don’t panic. Never panic. Take a deep breath. Then take another one, and remember that you are the power in your own life. You absolutely have the ability to shift your own energy for the better.
Unblocker #1: The Lemon Cure
For the Lemon Cure, on the morning of a full moon, rise between sunrise and one hour after sunrise. Cut a lemon in half and sprinkle the top of each half with sea salt. Sweep your aura with one half and then the other half (sort of like you’re using an energetic lint brush about 6-12 inches away from your skin) and then place both halves face up on your altar. The next morning, again between sunrise and an hour after sunrise, discard the halves in a yard waste, trash, or compost bin. Then repeat the entire process with a new lemon. Repeat for 12 days straight to break any curse or hex.
Unblocker #2: The Saltwater Cure
If you feel intuitively drawn to the Saltwater Cure, draw a warm or hot bath. Add 1 cup epsom salt, 1 cup sea salt, and 1/4 cup baking soda and dissolve by stirring the water in a counterclockwise direction. Before you enter the water, hold your hands in prayer pose and say, “Divine Spirit, thank you for filling this water with vibrations of healing, purification, and love.” Visualize the water as filled and surrounded with blindingly bright white light. Then get in and soak for at least 40 minutes. Feel and sense that all negative or stuck energy is being broken by being neutralized and dissolved as you soak. And stay hydrated as you soak: be sure to have plenty of drinking water on hand.
Hex or Curse Breaker #3: The Angel Cure
Enlist angels to cleanse and unblock your energy with the Angel Cure. First, obtain a celestite crystal. Cleanse it by placing it in bright sunlight for 5-10 minutes. Hold it in both hands near your heart as you center your mind. Then say:
Archangel Michael, I call on you. Thank you for powerfully clearing and purifying me of any and all stuck or challenging energies. Archangel Haniel, I call on you. Thank you for attuning me to the frequencies of purity, harmony, and peace. Thank you, thank you, thank you. Blessed be. And so it is.
Keep the crystal with you for one full moon cycle to help dissipate all old or stuck energy completely. Purify it in the light of the sun every few days.
Unblocker #4: The Selenite and White Sage Cure
Selenite crystals and white sage are both powerful detoxifiers and can help clear old energetic patterns or vibrational debris related to personal or generational challenges. Using a selenite wand, sweep your energy field downward and outward, about 6-12 inches away from your skin. Then light a sage bundle so that it’s smoking like incense and thoroughly bathe your aura in the smoke by waving the sage around the around the outside of your body, again 6-12 inches away from your skin. Be very careful to catch any burning embers with a dish or a plate. Then safely extinguish the sage by sealing it in a jar.
Unblocker #5: The Rose Overdose Cure
Roses can help cleanse and unblock your energy because they have among the highest and purest vibrations of any living thing. For the Rose Overdose cure, draw a warm bath. Add 1/4 cup rose water and the petals from 12 white roses. Soak for at least 40 minutes. After you dry off, put 4 drops of rose flower essence under your tongue. (Please note that flower essences are very different than essential oils, as they are safe to take internally. In case you’re not familiar with the difference, here is an example of a rose flower essence.) Put another 4 drops under your tongue just before bed. Every day for the next 28 days, take 2 drops of rose flower essence under your tongue every morning upon waking and every evening just before going to sleep.
Not Sure Which One(s) to Choose?
Cut 5 small, equally-sized squares of paper. Now you’re going to draw simple representations of each cure. (Don’t worry if you’re not an artist – as long as you can recognize it, it’s fine.) On one, draw a lemon. On another, draw a simple wave to represent water. On the next, draw angel wings. The final two will be a leaf (to represent sage) and a rose.
Put them in a hat. Say a prayer for guidance, asking the Divine to show you which cure will most effectively unblock your energy. Without looking, use one hand to mix them around, and draw one.
Then, flip a shiny penny to see if it will be helpful for you to do an additional cure. If it’s heads, the answer is yes. If it’s tails, no. Choose up to three this way.
If you happen to choose any combination of the lemon, rose, and angel cures, do them in tandem: don’t wait a month and then start the next.
If you happen to choose both the saltwater and the rose, do the saltwater bath first. Then wait a full 24 hours before beginning the rose cure.
The selenite and white sage cure can be performed before (and on the same day as) any other cure.
Keep Calm and Stay Strong.
To bolster your energetic immunity in order to support the full release of the old energy, make sure to eat lots of healthy food, drink lots of water, and get plenty of sleep. And, as I mentioned above, it’s also a good idea to keep your energy clear and shielded with a meditation like this one.
And for lasting, holistic energetic well-being, I highly recommend reading my book, Little Guide to Protection Magic.
And remember: don’t panic! You’re going to be fine. You’ve got this.

Hello Tess,
I am 32 and have always had difficulty in relationships, thinking back all my siblings (5 of us) have always had difficulty in this area. I joke around with my mom that someone but a curse on her kids because we used to be really cute kids and they were jealous. I have relatives that believe and practice witchcraft, Is there any way to tell if I need to do a cleanse?
Tess Whitehurst says
Sandra, I suggest the Lemon Cure from this post.
Andrea says
I recently had a spell done. After months or waiting because they told me so had to wait I asked for my money back ? Now this person is threatening to curse me and hex send demons to me and my family and start a generational curse. What am I supposed to do to protect myself? How would I know? Please help thank you.

orgonite says
hi tess,
I have been using sacred geometry to fight against the dark side recently as I know they have hijacked our sacred buiding blocks of the universe, fractals and scared geometry to control us. I recently got some orgonite which was originally developed by wilhem reich which has been further developed by people today (gem stones with copper wire, silver or gold flakes and resin). I have used them to fight off the shadow people and they really hate the stuff. Recently though I heard putting them in a hexagon shape and mediating inside really helpes with the power of them. As soon as I did it though I felt like a becon for good and evil to further see me and had chills up my back and massively around my head. I’ve had weird things since. sat at the 13th table at a pub by accient and my bill there was $13.13. I know these are good devices though I just don’t understand there interdimensional properties enough to use them now after what I felt. I’ve looked up this shape and know its a hexagram/solomans seal but at the same time its the flower of life/fruit of life/heart chakra shape. The hexagon is sacred but also hijacked like the swastika. first off I was wondering if you could help me if I’ve been hexed or hexed myself indirectly (can pray alone work) and how to break it and second how do we go about using these divine birth right shapes if they have been infiltrated by the darkness?I know its about intension but how do you work in the light without attracting the dark?I use sage, selenite, bay leafs, sea salt baths all the time. Is the merkaba/hexagon a vehicle of ascension or something the new age is pushing without knowing what it is being used for? I don’t believe the movies. I know these beings are afraid of us thats why they prey on people sleeping, young children, people in greif and the elderly. I’ve been in a battle with them all my life but I’m just hoping I haven’t brought that battle to myself head on. I’m not afraid though. Just need some advice. thank you x
Tess Whitehurst says
Oh my! It is clear that you are very intelligent and highly sensitive to math and sacred geometrical patterns. So sensitive that it might be too much for you! Because of that, I suggest getting in to see a therapist or counselor if you haven’t already.
A Person says
Hello Tess, I’m here because I think a lady put a written curse on my mother and possibly on me. A few years back I lived in a neighborhood that was built on an battleground so everything was kinda weird from the getgo. Bad dreams, weird moods and heavy feelings were normal now and then. There was a woman down the road fairly old who lived in a house with many plants almost as if the house was plant too, she lived alone. She was friendly at first but there was something odd about her. At the time I was in school, once when I was walking to school she stopped me and spoke to me for a bit (note this was at six am) she asked for my name and stuff. She spoke to my mother as well and even gave us some of her old stuff. One day my mom and her got into an argument and that’s when things in my house intensified. Even heavier feelings from nowhere, visible things, objects moving, orbs, intense nightmares, my dad even got into an accident. I made it a thing to avoid her house and so did my mother. One day she drove past my mom and told her “we miss you” but she supposedly lived alone. This adds on to my sister’s weird dream warning about “them” coming. To this day even after moving weird things happen. Moving out helped and so did sages but I can’t help but wonder if we are still under a curse. My mother won’t ask for help from a professional. If you have any advice I’m all ears. I don’t usually do this out of fear of getting myself into some deeper predicament.

Hi there. It’s my sense that clearing clutter intensely from your space will be a good idea. Start by getting rid of everything from your space (and everywhere – storage, car, computer, etc) you don’t love, use, or need. Then come back and let me know how you’re doing.
Kristy says
Hi im 42 now but have felt for the past 10 yrs that i seem unlucky not really advancing in my career and just seems like my luck isn’t the greatest in life. Im wondering if ive been cursed. Or what im dealing with. Thanks for taking the time to read my question.
Tess Whitehurst says
Kristy, I’d look at any clutter you have in your home or anywhere else in your life, and clear it ASAP. Anything you don’t love, use, or need, get rid of it! Maybe read Clear Your Clutter with Feng Shui or The Life Changing Magic of Tidying Up for inspiration.
