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.

Have you ever heard of a mother latching on to her daughter. A really really selfish and self indulgent woman i feel is absolutely sucking the light from her own daughter. She has this very strong “ive paid my dues” “the universe owes me” personality. And i feel like she is taking from her child. Its absolutely horrible that i feel this way but i do. Her daughter is not as pretty as she once was her hair is falling out she cant stop gaining weight and many many doctors say nothing is medically wrong these things r just happening. Mean time her mother looks youthful. And this woman has a bad smell only me and her daughter seem to notice. Have you ever heard of such things? We just want to cut any ties that may exist incase this is really happening.
Hi Nell! I have certainly heard of overbearing parents and I would not rule out some sort of negative energetic situation. In any case, if the daughter wants to cut ties for any reason, it would be appropriate. Regardless of family ties, if we are being mistreated by ANYONE, we are allowed to take care of ourselves be removing ourselves from the situation.

Hi Tess,
I will admit that I was never one to believe in the magic and curses and such but recent events have had me wondering.
About 4 or 5 months ago my mother in law gave my wife an old strange Japanese book kind of like accordian style with the way it opens. We have a Japanese friend so I sent her a picture of the cover and some of the inside and she told me it is a book that monks read when people die and that it was creepy and we should get rid of it. Well I didn’t think to believe her so we kept it and then things started to change. I have been married to my wife for 5 years and had been together for 4 years before that but she meet a Japanese/Korean guy and over the course of the last 3 months she has been developing surprisingly strong emotions for him. We are now filing for divorce and she is prepared to leave me and our 2 children behind so she can start a life with this new man.
I understand that she could be genuinely in love but I find it hard to believe that such strong ties can develop in 3 months. She will defend him fiercely if I point out any of his shortcomings or flaws and she is even attempting to get pregnant with his baby already which most people would find strange in itself but when our last child was born, her doctor warned her that she came close to dying because her body could barely sustain the pregnancy and if she were to get pregnant again, she would have an extremely high chance of dying while delivering if she is even able to reach full term.
I don’t know, maybe I’m just hoping it’s something I can still fix by breaking a curse. The book is still in the house. I thought to burn it but did not know if that is the proper way to dispose of it. Also, I feel like mentioning that my mother in law apparently had this book for a long time, not sure how long exactly, but she has also been in and out of marriages and unable to settle. Maybe I’m just reaching for straws but if there is something I can do, please let me know.
Thank you
Peter, I don’t know what that book is, but I do suggest getting it out of the house and releasing it from your possession (i.e. give it away or give it back to your mother-in-law). Then I suggest clearing the space in your home. Here’s a post about how to do this: https://tesswhitehurst.com/how-to-clear-the-energy-in-your-home-in-5-simple-steps/
Dear Tess.
Please can you tell me if there is anyone in England who can break a curse? I’m 63.
My extended family , brothers, sisters are a complete disaster. 3 out of 5 of us are mentally ill, schizophrenia etc etc, nothing I do ever goes right. There was talk , when I was young that a curse had been put of the family by an ancestor. things never seem to improve over the years. If anything good happens to me, which is rare, it is followed by negative stuff. The years are taking their toll.
Heather, I suggest doing the Selenite and White Sage cure from this post, and I also suggest carefully reading You Can Heal Your Life by Louise Hay, and taking it to heart.
Hi Im Sarah.. So for years since I was 9 I had a very evil up setting childhood that caused me to grow up really fast and turned to drugs and others … All my life I have been fighting and struggling.. My addiction caused me to loose everything husband home kids… My life has been eventfull but never the less Ive been hurt by everyone I ever loved and cant seem to find my calling or my purpose and I struggle with love and acceptance… I have a good heart and its been broken over and over again with friends and loved ones… Im now out of my addiction at 34 and its new life since I was 9 years old I was using and drinking.. My lifes changed but I feel like I will never find love and purpose and I pray I just need more and I dont know of what… If that makes sence
Sarah, are you in therapy? I suggest finding a counselor, therapist, or psychologist whom you trust. There is an app called TalkSpace that offers affordable phone therapy if money is an issue.
