Salts
Salts have been used across cultures for thousands of years as sacred tools for cleansing, protection, purification, and energetic sealing. In metaphysical practice, salts act as spiritual boundary setters—absorbing negative energy, anchoring intention, and creating protective fields around people, spaces, and rituals.
From black salt used in banishing, to pink salt for love and harmony, these mineral allies are essential in any witch’s toolkit.

Ritual Bath Tip:
Add 1–2 tablespoons of ritual salt to a warm bath along with herbs or oils. Soak with intention, and visualize all negative energy dissolving into the water. Always rinse and ground afterward.
