Home Protection Santa Muerte Magick Petition
Step 1 - Define the Intent
The intent of this petition is to protect the home and all who live there from harm, misfortune, psychic attack, and hexes.
Step 2 - Write or Find a Magick Prayer
Here is an original prayer you can use as is or adapt.
“Santa Muerte in your white cloak,
protector of hearth and home,
in this place, love and abundance roam.
Family and friends, visitors and guests,
within these walls, may we face no threats.
Protect us from disasters and attackers,
from thieves, curse senders, and hex casters.
In the name of Holy Saint Death, amen."
Step 3 - Select a Candle
The candle color recommended for this petition is white, as white is associated with peace and calm.
Step 4 - Find a Target Link
Since the target of this petition is your home, your target link could be a picture of the home or a paper containing the home address. A copy of your lease agreement or mortgage statement would also work. Also gather all the names and dates of birth for everyone who lives in the home, to write on the picture or paper.
Step 5 - Gather the Appropriate Herbs
Basil - a strong protection herb against spiritual and physical harm.
Blessed Thistle - for home protection against thieves and unwanted visitors.
Fennel Seed - against negativity, curses, and to ward off bad luck.
Oregano - for tranquility, good luck, and protection.
Although not an herb, you may also incorporate into this blend a pinch or two of dirt from the target property you want to protect.
Step 6 - Go to Your Altar
Light the white candle so you may work in its light, and recite the selected magick prayer.
Take the target link you have chosen for this petition, and write on it all the names and dates of birth for everyone who lives in the home full-time. Place this target link under or next to the candle, and again recite the selected prayer.
Next, grind approximately equal parts of the basil, blessed thistle, fennel seed, and oregano with your mortar and pestle. If incorporating a pinch or two of dirt from the home to be protected, it may be added to the blend at this point. Continue to recite the selected magick prayer as you focus on your intent of protecting your home and those who live there from harm and misfortune. Be careful of breathing in the dust of the herbs as you grind, as it may cause irritation.
When the herbs have been ground to the point that a bit of each herb would be present in every pinch, then slowly begin to spread this herbal mixture, pinch by pinch, around the outside base of your candle. Continue to recite the magick prayer as you spread the herbs, until the entire herbal mixture has been distributed around the base of the candle.
Recite again the magick prayer, and allow the candle to burn at your altar until completion. If using an LED candle, then the candle should remain on your altar for three to seven days. Once complete, you may dispose of anything remaining from this petition using the suggestions in the chapter “How to Dispose of Magick Trash.”
