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.

Hi Tess,
My whole existence, I have not been able to do anything with my life. Everything I do doesn’t work out and the number 13 follows me around. I am an artist and I have tried over and over to make money on my own but, whenever I feel things are working out or might work, there’s this full stop that brings things to an end. It seems that I can make money for other people but not for myself. The last was doing designs and placing them on products through a Print on Demand site. Everything seemed to be going well and I was planning a million products with my art and I made it to nearly 200,000 products when they suddenly capped accounts at 100,000. I ran a numerology report for myself and found that 13 is my karmic number and tells me I will always hit a brick wall whenever I try to succeed at anything. How can I succeed against this karma? I am at my wit’s end and cannot live like this anymore.
John
Hi John! You do not need to believe in the numerology report or the story that you will hit a brick wall. I recommend reading this post, even though it’s about breaking a mirror: https://tesswhitehurst.com/is-breaking-a-mirror-really-seven-years-bad-luck/ – watch the video at the bottom as well. I also recommend reading the book You Can Heal Your Life by Louise Hay.
I guess you misunderstood me. I have NOT been living my life with the notion that I have bad luck and that I will always hit a brick wall NOR have I been living the past 50 years believing in a numerology report. I have already lived my life and what I said was that I have not been able to do anything with my life because no matter what I do or what venture I undertake I always hit a full stop because of circumstances BEYOND my control! No matter what, I always picked myself up, dusted myself off and got myself ready to try again. There is NO failure, just stopped by life because it just seemed like it did not want me to succeed. It was NOT until LAST year, SIX MONTHS AGO, that I ran this numerology report and it essentially detailed the path of my life as I have lived it! The number 13 that has followed me around my whole life, was there too and it is a karmic debt number detailing how in one life I had money and success and used it to hurt others and in this life I will struggle and “hit a brick wall” in all I do. Now I understand about positive mental outlook and that is NOT my problem because, through all the downfalls, I keep telling myself that “tomorrow is another day”! I just thought you might offer some guidance on working through this karmic debt but it seems you don’t have a belief in re-incarnation or karma.
Hi again John! I suggest giving the Lemon Cure (in this post) a try. 🙂
When I posted my reply, I had the premonition that you would recommend the Lemon thing. I appreciate your efforts but these rituals – just like the crucifix and holy water – require a belief structure in where it is your own power through belief in these rituals and objects that makes things happen. No more or less than what your were trying to suggest in your first response of mental outlook. I am fighting a different demon and, since you have no belief in karma, it is not something that can be wiped away with lemon and salt. If you believe in the threefold law, than you know that whatever a person does in life that they have to be accountable for sooner or later. The only thing missing from that is that if you do not pay for it in one life, then you will pay for it in another life. Thanks anyways.
Hey,
I’ve got this anger in me from my family and an addiction i once overcame for 4 years but have now been 5 years in torment . I get close to success then block myself from it by using or getting drunk. I feel like a fool and contemplate suicide often. Yet I aspire to healing, reflexology and massage. Crystals and witches are my new friends. The universe conspires to shower me with blessings and synchronicity aligns with me regularly. Yet I see strangers faces wash over me when i close my eyes and violent thoughts plague me to hurt myself and young family. It’s like Im torn in two. Or have evil in me. What should I do?
Hi, thanks for connecting – this sounds so challenging! I suggest talking to a therapist. Have you heard of the app called TalkSpace? Might be something to look into, as it offers very affordable therapy options (if this is a concern). Rehab would be awesome too, if possible.
Hi Tess – I have a close family member I feel has been cursed with alcoholism by a family member; the cursed family member lives in a different state; what would you recommend?
Thanks,
SJ
SJ, so sorry to hear this! It’s my sense that the best thing you can do is keep your own energy clear and positive (this meditation or one like it may help: https://tesswhitehurst.com/quick-thorough-aura-cleansing-meditation/ ), and send the family member with alcoholism clearing/healing/shielding vibes regularly.
I once visited a healing witchdoctor who said I was suffering from money curse. However, I did not comply to the ritual requested . After sometime I resigned from employment and my money that I received just got finished mysteriously. Am I under curse , can’t get a job or money.
Hi there! Perhaps you are, but it’s my sense that the Saltwater Cure (the second one in the post) will clear it for you.
hi tess,
my name is tom i have had an unforant insident where my exs ex out of nowhere decided to hex me and the one i love, which in turn messed with my family and my realationship, i have done nothing wrong to this man due to the fact at the time i was with my ex,(extremly possessive) i was afraid to leave and both her and my ex drove me mad, but he just recently decided to hex me with i guess may be love spell. i tried to use protection candle didnt work hexed the rest of family. unfortantly i busted my knuckle when i was woring and everything went silent then i broke into a panic attack screaming in pain and havent been able to work or stand my gf since, i used a hex breaking spell with beer hops and lemon and now im feeling sick but it was wirse before, it has caused ill health for my family and due to the fact he acted on the mercury retrograde idk if it will be stoppable. but i have faith. because through the tourture my soul is still feeling im numb to because of this and because of him i can clearly communicate with him and its sickening because this man has stolen the light from my life and made me sick literally, i can barely sleep ither, i havent slept well in months. what can be done because of this??
Thomas, I’m so sorry to hear about this. I recommend doing the Lemon Cure starting at the next full moon. Also, starting now and every day, call on Archangel Michael for help. You could even light him a candle.
