Bread is offered to the household guardians as a libation, and the salt is kept in the
heart of the home to ground any evil that might enter. After you do this, burn a purifying
or protecting incense such as frankincense, cinnamon, or pepper moving it from room to
room while you visualize any negativity fleeing from your home. As you go, chant over and
over your words of power:
Smoke of air and fire and earth
Cleanse and bless this home and hearth
Drive away all harm and fear
Only good may dwell in here
