I was working on a powder to knock some bad energy off a ring I have, and came up with two different mixtures, one a little more heavy duty than the other. The “mild” one I use as a sort of ‘gentle soap’, while the “spicy” is more of a ‘magical bleach’. Depends on how much bad luck and/or energy I need to get rid of.

These aren’t cleansing powders though, so I still recommend a good cleansing after using the powders. These are more like using a dish scrubber to get dried-on food bits off your plates before putting them into the dishwasher. Dislodge the nasties to make the actual cleaning easier.

And since I am absolutely one of those “steals half the spice cabinet in the middle of the night” witches, you should be able to obtain all of these ingredients with no trouble, if you don’t already have them around. [Protip: Chamomile and Peppermint are super easily obtained by getting a box of herbal tea and just ripping open the tea bag]

Mild Cursebreaker

• Chamomile (removing curses or hexes)
• Basil (driving off hostile spirits)
• Peppermint (clearing out a space)

Spicy Cursebreaker

• Sage (removes negative energy)
• Black Pepper (banishes negativity… aggressively)
• Salt (the almighty cleansing, grounding, banishing, and protecting ingredient)

I add everything in equal amounts to a mortar and pestle and then go to town grinding them down until they’re a fine powder. Bottle it up, and that’s it.

In general, I use a cheap makeup brush to dust the powder over an object, though I have also been known to sprinkle some in my hand and then blow it into a room, or toss a pinch over my shoulder like you’d do with spilled salt.
