When it comes to paranormal investigations, protecting yourself is just as important as uncovering the mysteries of the unknown. The spirit world is unpredictable, and even the most experienced investigators can find themselves vulnerable to lingering energies or malevolent entities. That’s why establishing spiritual boundaries and using protective tools are essential steps in safeguarding your well-being.

The Power of Black Salt
Black salt is one of the most valuable tools for keeping negative spirits at bay. This powerful protective agent is widely regarded for its ability to create a barrier against unwanted energies. While many investigators believe it’s enough to tell spirits, “You are not welcome to follow,” such commands don’t always guarantee compliance.
Why Words Alone Aren’t Enough
Spirits don’t always adhere to verbal warnings, and in some cases, such declarations could be interpreted as invitations to do the opposite. In my personal experience, relying solely on spoken words to establish boundaries can leave you vulnerable. Taking proactive measures, such as using black salt, reinforces your intent and provides an extra layer of protection.
How to Use Black Salt for Protection
Carrying a small amount of black salt on your person—such as in a pouch, locket, or sealed vial—acts as a protective charm throughout your investigation. In the rare event you feel an immediate need to ward against a persistent or threatening energy, a small pinch of black salt can be used to create a quick protective barrier. This practice should be reserved for situations where verbal commands and personal energy fail to maintain control.
By keeping black salt close and knowing how to use it effectively, you can navigate your investigations with confidence, ensuring that what you uncover stays in the realm where it belongs.
How to make black salt
Black salt is incredibly easy to make and can be customized to suit your specific needs or preferences. While there are some basic ingredients to start with, I encourage you to experiment with different combinations of herbs and resins to create a blend that feels truly personal to you.
Why Use a Mix of Salts?
Using a combination of Himalayan salt and sea salt enhances the protective properties of your black salt. Himalayan salt is known for its purifying and grounding energy, while sea salt has long been associated with cleansing and warding off negativity. Together, they create a balanced foundation that strengthens the effectiveness of your blend.
The Power of Crushed Black Tourmaline
Adding crushed black tourmaline to your black salt takes its protective qualities to another level. Black tourmaline is a powerful crystal known for its ability to repel negative energy, create strong energetic boundaries, and promote grounding. By incorporating it into your mix, you’re infusing your black salt with an extra layer of energetic shielding.
Basic Ingredients for Black Salt
To create your own black salt, you’ll need the following:
- Charcoal tablets – For its ability to absorb and neutralize negativity.
- Herbs and resins of your choice – Tailor these to your personal preferences and intent.
- Ash – Such as from your cauldron or burned materials, to symbolize transformation and protection.
- Himalayan salt and sea salt – For cleansing, grounding, and amplifying protective energy.
- Crushed black tourmaline – To enhance the protective and grounding properties of your blend.
- A glass jar – To store your black salt and keep it free from external influences.
- A mortar and pestle – For grinding the ingredients into a cohesive mix.
Crafting Your Bespoke Blend
Combine these ingredients with your intent and energy, creating a mixture that is both practical and deeply personal. With a little experimentation, you can craft a black salt blend that not only serves as a protective tool but also reflects your unique spiritual practice.
Instructions for Crafting Black Salt
- Burn your herbs and resins: Choose herbs and resins that align with your intent, such as sage for cleansing, rosemary for protection, or frankincense for spiritual purification. Collect the ash from this process.
- Combine the ingredients: In a mortar, add your charcoal tablet, ash, Himalayan salt, sea salt, and crushed black tourmaline.
- Grind everything together: Use the pestle to crush and blend the ingredients into a fine, cohesive mix. As you grind, focus your intent on creating a protective and empowering tool.
- Store the mixture: Transfer the black salt to a glass jar, sealing it tightly to preserve its energy until needed.
An Incantation to Empower Your Black Salt
As you grind the ingredients together, you can speak an incantation to infuse the mixture with your intent. Here’s an example:
Ash of herb, salt of earth and sea,
Bound with crystal’s strength, protect and shield me.
Negativity, be banished; your power undone,
By this salt, my will is spun.
Feel free to modify the incantation to make it resonate more personally with you.
By following these steps, you can create a bespoke black salt blend that is both a practical tool and a deeply meaningful addition to your spiritual practice.
