In this segment, you will find a straightforward protection charm that can help shield against unwanted energies and influences. This ritual is accessible for practitioners of all experience levels and requires only a few basic items.
To get started, you may wish to gather a pentagram pendant, which is often used to represent protection and balance, along with a bowl of salt water. The salt water serves as a symbol of purification and grounding.
Choose a quiet and comfortable space where you are unlikely to be interrupted. Take a moment to center yourself—deep breathing or a brief meditation can be helpful. When you feel calm, hold the pentagram pendant in your left hand and the bowl of salt water in your right.
If you like, you can face the West. In many traditions, the West is linked to water, intuition, and emotional boundaries, making it a meaningful direction for protective rituals.
Gently pour the salt water over the pendant, moving slowly and with intention. As you do this, focus on your desire to create a protective barrier around yourself.
While pouring the water, you might choose to recite the following charm, either out loud or silently:
“Elements of earth and sea
Return to all by power of three.
That which may be sent to me
Unless I have summoned it to be.
I am protected from this night
By the spirits of power and might.”
Allow the pendant to air dry. You can then wear it or keep it nearby as a reminder of your protection. This ritual may be repeated whenever you wish to strengthen your boundaries or renew your sense of safety.
