We all have times when someone is angry with us and does not wish us well. In extreme cases, you may be the recipient of an angry hex or curse. What to do?

First, remember that cold iron is one of the best materials for repelling negative magical energy. Hanging an old-fashioned horseshoe above the door (on the inside) will keep your threshold safe from intrusion. An old railroad spike will work, too.

Second, work a basic grounds warding. Circle your home and property three times, moving widdershins (counterclockwise). As you walk, repeat:

"Wards are set, safe at home."

You may wish to smudge or scatter salt as you walk. For added protection, bury a small Witch bottle (e.g., a bottle of nails, rosemary, and bits of obsidian) near the front of the house.

Third, stop in front of your door and use salt to create a pentagram in the area of the doormat. Step over the pentagram as you enter your home (and don't forget to lock the door!).
