I’m asking this from a place of honesty and not fear. We’ve lived in this house since my daughter was 4. She’s 18 now. When she was little she’d tell me there were two ghosts in her bedroom so clearly and consistently that she refused to sleep in there at all. I always tried to stay grounded about it at the time i wasn’t fully “awake” yet however I still allowed her to sleep in our bedroom until the 4th grade when she switched bedrooms “my office is her old bedroom” but the energy in this home has never felt “light.” It’s been a toxic environment for years and one I’m actively trying to get out of it. There have been moments that still sit heavy with me. Once I thought I saw something attached to my husband not a shape but a presence that didn’t feel like him. And I’ve had several strange falls over the years. One time I was standing on the couch hanging a picture and it felt like I was pushed straight back off flat on my back. Yesterday I came home with groceries opened the door halfway with nothing in my hands and again felt pushed kinda and fell backwards off the porch steps. I tried to twist so I wouldn’t hit my head but I still ended up with a skid mark on my face and a big bump above my right eye. I’m not claiming anything for sure. I’m not trying to dramatize. I just genuinely don’t know how to tell the difference between bad luck, a toxic environment, and something spiritually heavy that might be attached to the home or to one of us. If anyone here has experience with this signs to look for ways to check cleansing methods I did read the salt jar spell but I’ve not yet cast a spell, books, videos, or even your own intuition. I would truly appreciate any guidance. I don’t know if this is the right place to ask but I’m hoping someone might pick up on something or point me in the right direction. Thank you for reading this. I’m open to learning, and I’m ready to clear whatever needs clearing. If anyone needs anymore information please ask. Blessed Be, Terra ---

I would eliminate any mundane reason for falling first. Falling off the couch is a thing to beware, I never feel steady when I stand on upholstered furniture in the past. Falling by the door is harder to explain, unless an unexpected wind gust took it. You should have your balance checked, I know bad balance personally I have scar tissue in my Eustachian tubes which are part of inner-ear balance mechanism. You don’t need to see a doctor either, just do the standard police sobriety test, walking a line etc. while someone watches you. Any bad balance issue should be detected then you can see a doctor about that. Eliminate that possibility first. Also, is there anyone you know who can confirm the presence of ghosts in the home? ---

Hi Terra, This is a suggestion for you that I plan on doing myself today. First, starting and ending in the North (Earth) place of power, walk 3 times around the inside of your home, safely burn a sage bundle, and wave the smoke into the corners and crevices. While walking, banish by thinking and/or saying, “Begone to all that are not here for our highest good!” After that, do 3 more turns, ringing a bell in the corners and using filler incense to close the energetically cleansed circle. A bit of candle protection magic is helpful. Salt on the threshold of entry doors is useful. In the past, I have filled shot glasses with salt, placed a crystal in the salt, and put them in the corners of rooms. Listen to your instincts. Children are often more psychic than adults. There are additional banishing spells online. I’m a priestess practicing in a Stregharian tradition. I lived in a haunted house as a child. It made me fearful of sleeping at night, and I often did not sleep in my own bedroom. If this is not enough I would find a witch to perform a house cleansing. Blessed Be! ---

Thoughtful Thursday Terra, Wow!!! I’m not sure where to start. I whole-heartedly agree with Urthechilde. Spiritually cleanse your home. For me, I use sage, incense, sound (bells) for the home (cleansing/protection), cinnamon and salt outside the home (protection). I could also suggest many chants if you wish, PM me. That being said, it sounds more like the house rather than attached to a person. However, I cannot be sure. I picked up a trickster around 1984. Thought it was with the house I was renting, but has been with me ever since. So, I know it’s attached to me. You say, you have only been there in that one residence this whole time, so it would be hard to tell. However, what you said, > [@terra](#): > > One time I was standing on the couch hanging a picture and it felt like I was pushed straight back off flat on my back. Yesterday I came home with groceries opened the door halfway with nothing in my hands and again felt pushed kinda and fell backwards off the porch steps. This makes it sound like the _house_ is having the issue. The house did not want you to hang a picture, the house pushed you away from entering. Hmmmm…when I picked up my ghost back in 1984, there was a closet that was never used, and I always saw a shadow when I took a shower and the dog barked at it. This is how I surmised it was an entity. Never harm, but a prankster. So, I guess he followed me, because I still have him around occasionally. So, in a way, a similarity, a room that was fearful (your daughters bedroom, my only closet). Y’all have been there quite a while…is this the first _harming_ incidents? If so, the entity wants your attention for sure NOW! I am not sure of your situation, but the few bad scenes I had with my ghost, I would stand in the room and talk quite forcefully. Maybe you can enter your daughters room and _talk._ Ask who is there, what do they want, do they have a message, are they angry…whatever comes to you. If it is a spirit trying to reach you, you should be able to start feelin/knowing changes within a few weeks (hopefully a couple days). I cannot give you definite answers of what to look for, but since you are aware, you will know when it happens. I hope this helps out, sweetie, Lady Gene 🕯 🐦‍🔥 ---

There is a way to keep the peace. Bring two things into your office room. Orange and Viola herb. Place them in your home office and leave them undisturbed. Do not enter or use the office for exactly 3 weeks and 5 days. There is one exception, you may enter the room only once during this entire period, and that single visit is for the sole purpose of removing Orange and Viola herb after many days. Apart from that one removal visit, the office must remain completely unused and unoccupied for the full duration listed above, counted from the date you first placed the items inside. After the full period of 3 weeks and 5 days has passed, you may resume normal use of your home office as before. Be aware that Viola herb is not the same as Sweet Violet. The two are often mixed up, but they are different. ---

Definitely cleanse your home using one of the methods suggested. I agree with attempting to communicate with the spirit. If you can’t find a Witch to help you, which is the best solution, for a last resort, contact a catholic priest and tell him what you told us. He might be able to help in some way. ---

Or look for a local Shaman.
