What is Black Salt?
Black salt has been used for many centuries for protection, cursing, hexing, banishing and reverse magick. Black salt absorbs negative energies and left over, stagnant vibrations. Negative energies can dull our aura and can even attach to us and to our space, potentially leading to emotions such as depression, lack of motivation, anxiety and other unhealthy habits. Black Salt can also absorb negative energies from your environmental circumstances and is often used in spells and magickal workings to create boundaries, assist with spiritual barriers, and provide protection. Use Black Salt to ward off any negative and psychic energies while protecting yourself or your space. Black Salt can be used alone or as a base for your spell work or ritual work and can be combined with other herbs and essential oils for spell jars
How to use Black Salt?
To use black salt in spells and rituals, start by incorporating it into your protective and cleansing practices. You can create a protective barrier by sprinkling black salt around the perimeter of your space or altar, forming a shield against negative energies. For purification, mix black salt with water and use it to cleanse your ritual tools or space by sprinkling or wiping it with a cloth. In spellwork, combine black salt with other ingredients in a spell jar to enhance its potency and focus its protective properties. You can also use black salt in ritual baths by adding a pinch to the water, allowing it to absorb and dispel negativity. Remember to set clear intentions and visualize the black salt absorbing any unwanted energies, ensuring that your spells and rituals are effective and grounded.

How to Make Black Salt?
To make black salt for spells, begin by combining sea salt or table salt with a small amount of activated charcoal or black lava salt. Start with a base of about one cup of salt and gradually mix in a teaspoon of activated charcoal, which imparts the deep black color and enhances its purifying properties. Stir the mixture thoroughly to ensure an even distribution of the charcoal. For added potency, you can infuse the black salt with specific intentions or energies by meditating over the mixture or adding herbs and essential oils associated with protection and cleansing, such as sage or rosemary. Once prepared, store the black salt in a clean, sealed container and use it in your spells and rituals to create protective barriers, purify spaces, or absorb negative energies.
