Have you ever been in a place that looks neat and clean, yet it somehow feels dirty or uncomfortable to you? Have you ever noticed a shift in your mood or demeanor when you walked into a room or building?

Space clearing is the practice of revitalizing the energetic atmosphere inside any enclosed area or dwelling.

Places such as homes, offices, vehicles, stores, restaurants, and hotel rooms, as well as smaller spaces, such as tents, campers, cars, and closets, can all be energetically maintained to improve the feeling and quality of any area.

When to Space Clear

Many factors cause the energy in a place to become stagnant. The following is a list of circumstances in an area that can benefit from space clearing:

When you move into a new home or workspace
Where someone died
Whenever anyone in the home is stressed, ill, angry, emotional, or depressed
When the occupants have been under duress of any kind
After you had visitors or strangers in the home
After an emotional outburst, argument, or fight occurred
If there are entities in the home
Regularly in areas where there is no airflow, sunlight, or movement
Areas that have been neglected or abandoned
At least once a month
When you want to clean and refresh your space

How to Space Clear Quickly and Easily

The natural world is comprised of five main elements: earth, water, fire, air, and space. One way to define space as an element is to label it as the unseen energy field, or subtle energy, in a given area.

Although each element is vastly different from the others, they are alike in that each is an expression of energy that affects change in whatever it encounters.

Applying an element to space will alter the pattern of the subtle energy in that space. Knowing this, you can use the elements to refresh and circulate subtle energy anywhere you choose.

It may sound complicated, but space clearing is actually easy. There are many products you can use to clear and refresh subtle energy without much effort or expense.

Any object that utilizes the elements to move space will do the job, such as sacred smoke and incense from sticks and smudge bundles, fire from candles or fireplaces, moving water in fountains or fish tanks, and sound from chimes, bells, and music that projects harmony.

To get you started, here are some suggested items you can find on Amazon that will clear your space quickly and easily:

Etheric Housekeeping?

Housekeeping is a necessity of life. You have to clean regularly to keep dust and debris from causing a space to become dirty. Yet what is not as well known is that subtle energy must also be cleared periodically to prevent the oppressive feeling of a sullied atmosphere.

You can think of it as etheric housekeeping or multi-dimensional tidiness. Either way, regular space clearing can significantly improve an area’s comfort level and boost the well-being of anyone who encounters it. Try adding it to your cleaning routine to enhance your home or space.
