Some things to try to bring peace to your home.
Cleansing Spell for a Home
http://www.everythingunderthemoon.net/spells/cleansing_home.htm
Take a large bowl of salt and sprinkle a pinch or
two over the exterior doorways and windowsills of your home. Make
certain you get each and every one.
Choose the room that has the strongest negative
feel to it. Light a white candle. In a large fire proof bowl combine the
following:
1 tablespoon powdered garlic
1 tablespoon peppermint
1 tablespoon ground clove
1 tablespoon dried/powdered thistle
handful or two of sweetgrass, sage or dried oak
leaves
Carefully light the mixture so that it smolders,
giving off an aromatic smoke. Leaving the candle lit, carry the bowl in
to each room and repeat the following:
In the name of the Eternal Lady and Lord I bid
thee part.
I consecrate and clear this space.
Let nothing but joy linger here.
When you have done each room, return to the first,
set the bowl beside the candle and wait for the remaining mixture to
burn out. Take the ash outside and sprinkle it over the
grass/flowerbed/etc, thereby returning it to the Mother.

Witch Bottle
http://www.ecauldron.net/witchbottle.php
Wiccan Version
The Wiccan versions of the Witch-bottle which
follow are more suitable for the Wiccan view of the world, magick and
ethics. They are often intended to capture the negative energies or
prevent it from ever arriving and - what's important - prevent it to
harm the home and its inhabitants.
Many Wiccan Witch-bottles use herbs, with the
herbs being chosen according to their magickal qualities. There are
sometimes very specific instructions given for the gathering of each
herb and other items, including correct phases of the Moon. The herbs
and other objects may be put in the bottle the previous day, letting the
bottle stand by the witch's bed over the night. In the morning, you can
add (morning) urine to the bottle, after which the bottle is closed and
sealed utilizing Wiccan rituals. Some instructions state that the bottle
will be placed in a cupboard or closet, so you don't necessarily have to
carefully hide it.
The following instructions are a basic version of
a Wiccan version of the Witch-bottle, using herbs. You can do everything
using a longer/more complex or a shorter/simpler route, depending on
your own inclinations. You can for example start collecting the
necessary items on a given phase of the moon (for example on the day
before New Moon) and perform the ritual on the next Dark Moon. Or, you
can collect the items when you have time for it and build the bottle at
any phase of the moon (with protective spells, you don't always have to
wait for the right phase of the moon - you do it when you have to). You
can utter a suitable spell with every item added to the bottle,
summoning the spirit of the item/accessory and meditate for a while - or
you can speak your chosen words after the bottle is filled. You can make
the bottle as part of a ritual, or you can construct a ritual especially
for this occasion. One reason why I'm being so vague with the
instructions is that I'm not Wiccan myself.
Materials
* Bottle or jar, with a tightly closing cap or lid
* Sea salt
* Crystal or stone, for example turquoise,
obsidian or black onyx.
* Herbs, for example acasia, aloe, lilies, lime,
lotus, agrimony, corn, cayenne and black pepper, dried onion, salvia,
frankincense, basil, mint, myrrh, garlic, rosemary, mistletoe, pine
needles.
* A few nails or needles
* Wine, (apple) vinegar or urine
* Thread
* Black candle for sealing
* The usual tools used in the ritual section
Preliminary Preparations
You can choose the herbs and crystals you are
going to use according to their special qualities or use some of those
I've listed. You can also use a drop or two of an essential oil instead
of a herb. You can choose the number of herbs and solid items in general
(in this case, essential oil is counted as "solid") to put in the bottle
on numerological grounds either so that the number of all solid items is
a specific one, or that you will use a certain number of herbs. Suitable
numbers are 7, connected to protection, or 9, connected with the
Goddess.
Gather the necessary items. Clean the bottle you
are going to use. Wash it with warm soapy water carefully (if you can
use a specific soap made for protective purposes, so much the better)
and dry it well. You can leave the bottle over night in the light of a
full moon to charge it. Choose a place to hide the bottle. For a bottle
to be filled as part of a ritual or ritually, it is a good thing to have
all the necessary tools at hand, on your alter. You can also construct
your ritual and spells and chants beforehand.
The purpose of the crystal (which isn't absolutely
necessary, the list is given as an example - including the liquid items)
is to use it's magickal qualities, the same goes with the herbs. The
salt is there to purify and bless the target of the Witch-bottle (the
person(s), home to be protected). The nails and needles ground the
negative energy and you can also visualize it being then sent back to
its sender, threefold. The thread tangles the negative energy in a knot
similar to what you are tangling the thread into and to bend the
energies away from the builder of the bottle. You can also visualize the
negativity tripping over to the thread. The urine represents the builder
of the bottle. When using wine or vinegar you can visualize the negative
energies drowning in the liquid, with vinegar acting as a purifying
element as well.
The Actual Making of the Bottle
If you're constructing the bottle as part of a
ritual, you can perform the ritual opening as usual.
Start filling the bottle with the salt. After the
salt, add needles or nails, bent or straight. After this, it's time to
add the herbs. The crystals and the thread you've tangled into a "ball"
can be added next. If you are adding liquids, that is done after the
solid items.
When the bottle is otherwise finished, you can
raise energies with a suitable chant (I've seen the traditional "Isis,
Astarte, Diana, Hecate, Demeter, Kali, Inanna" recommended for this
purpose) and directing it into the bottle, after which you close the
bottle and seal it with the wax of the candle.
End your ritual as usual and bury the bottle into
a suitable place or otherwise hide it. You can burn incense on the
hiding place to seal the spell properly.

Basic Candleburning Spell
http://lunagoddess.awardspace.co.uk/index.php?option=com_content&am...
Timing:
Do this spell the last thing at night. Then go to
bed with the thought that the ritual will succeed.
Select a candle of an appropriate color. The
candle should be new and never used for any other purpose. The following
information will help you select an appropriate colour:
White: A balance of all colors; Spiritual
enlightenment, cleansing, clairvoyance, healing, truth seeking; Rituals
involving lunar energy. May be substituted for any colour candle.
Silver: Removes negativity and encourages
stability; helps develop psychic abilities; attracts the influence of
the Mother Goddess.
Royal Blue: Promotes laughter and joviality; color
or loyalty; use to attract Jupiter energy, or whenever an influence
needs to be increased.
Light Blue: Spiritual color; helpful in devotional
or inspirational meditations; brings peace and tranquility to the home;
radiates Aquarius energy; employ where a situation must be synthesized.
Blue: Primary spiritual color; for rituals to
obtain wisdom, harmony, inner light, or peace; confers truth and
guidance.
Green: Promotes prosperity, fertility, success;
stimulates rituals for good luck, money, harmony, and rejuvenation.
Black: Opens up the deeper levels of the
unconscious; use in rituals to induce a deep meditational state, or to
banish evil or negativity as in uncrossing rituals; attracts Saturn
energy.
Anoint the candle to impress your thoughts on it
and to consecrate it to your purpose. The best type of oils to use for
dressing candles are natural ones which can be obtained quite easily.
Some occult suppliers will provide candle magic oils with exotic names.
The oil soluble perfumes sold by craft shops for inclusion in candles
will work as well.
Before starting get clear on what you wish, then
write your wish on new paper. Put this paper under the candle holder.
Lower or turn off other lights. Rub the anointing
oil on your fingers and gently rub it onto the candle.
Light the candle and sit in quiet concentration
upon your wish. Above all visualize the thing you want.
Use the burning candle as a focus of
concentration.
When you feel that you have concentrated for long
enough take the paper and burn it in the flame of the candle, with the
thought that you are now projecting your wish into the beyond to find
fulfillment.
As the paper burns, chant the following:
Candle shining in the night
With your flame enchanted,
By the powers of magic might
May my wish be granted.
When the candle sheds its gleam
At the mystic hour,
Let fulfillment of my dream
Gather secret power.
Flame of magic, brightly burn,
Spirit of the fire.
Let the wheel of fortune turn,
Grant me my desire.
One, two, three - so mote it be!
Blow out the candle if its not consumed. Wrap it
up in clean paper to use again on the same wish only! Repeat the spell
as necessary to reinforce it.

Incense Recipes
Protection Incense
Use equal parts:
Lavender
Rosemary
Bay
Isis and Osiris Incense
The fragrance of this incense has been described
as that of a mystical wedding, one that connects opposites.
1 Part Frankincense
1 Part Myrrh
This incense is balancing, harmonizing, and
comforting. It creates a peaceful atmosphere for meditation, Reiki
treatments, and energizing massage. It helps people get in touch with
each other. As a stress-reliever, it is very effective and works well at
any time of the day. It is especially supportive of therapeutic
treatments used to harmonize the body and the soul.
To make the Incense:
1) Gather all the ingredients together.
2) Fix your mind on the incense's goal:
protection, prosperity, etc..
3) Pulverize the mastic, myrrh and storax together
in a mortar and pestle. Add the galbanum and the labdanum, working well
with the mortar and pestle.
4) Add small amounts of the honey until you can
form a dough, then make the dough into small pellets about the size of a
pea.
5) Place the pellets on a piece of cloth or a
sieve and allow them to dry fro seven days.
6) Place the mixture in a tightly closed jar,
label with the name of the incense and the date of composition.
7) Empower the incense by holding the container in
which you are storing the blend. Light a candle appropriate to the use
for which the incense is intended. Focus on the incense and on the
intent for which you have created it. Build energy within your body
beginning at your feet and working up until you feel the enetgy
concentrated in your hands, and then allow this energy to flow into the
mixture. If necessary, create a little chant such as
I charge you by the Sun and Moon
to (state your intention for the incense)
So mote it be!
When you feel drained of energy, you know it has
entered the mixture. Sit dow, shake your hands vigorously for a few
minutes, relax your body, then snuff out the candle.
Empowering can be incredibly powerful, and not
empowering your blends is a sign of a lazy herbalist. The incense is now
ready for use.
TO USE:
Light the charcaol block and quickly place it in
the censer. Allow the block to burn until it is evenly glowing and red,
then pour on the incense. Do not use too much or you will snuff out the
charcaol, and be aware that incense burnt in this manner creates quite
an amount of somke, so be sure to use in an adequately ventilated area.

A Witches Bottle Spell
http://www.spellcentral.com/spell-135/a-witches-bottle-spell.html
Gather rosemary, needles and pins. Fill a small
jar with these three ingredients, saying the following as you work:
Pins, needles, rosemary, wine
In this witch's bottle of mine
Guard against harm and enmity
This is my will, So mote it be!
Visualize these herbs doing just that. When the
jar is full, pour in red wine. Then cap or cork the jar and drip wax
from a black or red candle around the seal. Bury the jar at the farthest
corner of your property or place it in an inconspicuous spot in the
house. The Witch's bottle destroys negativity and evil. The pins and
needles impale evil, the wine drowns it, and the rosemary send it far
from your property.
------------------------------
Herbal Witch's Cleansing Bottle
http://www.spellcentral.com/spell-128/herbal-witchs-cleansing-bottl...
To make an herbal cleansing bottle, pour a layer
of sand in a large clear bottle. Add layers of dried herbs, one at a
time: first rosemary; then lemon peel, sage, cedar, black peppercorns,
lavender, dill, bay leaf, and rowan. When the bottle is full, focus
cleansing protective energy into the herbs and sand, and see a golden
light radiating from the bottle. Visualize the herbs driving away
negative influences. Cork and seal the bottle with white wax. Using a
permanent marker, draw the Algiz rune on one side of the bottle, and on
the other side draw a pentagram. Set the bottle near your front or back
door, and every six months, uncap, Pour herbs out into the woods or your
compost heap, and thoroughly wash and dry the bottle before filling it
with a new round of herbs.
---------------------------------------
Cleansing Negative Energy From A Home
http://www.spellcentral.com/spell-1027/cleansing-negative-energy-fr...
These are especially good measures to take when
moving into a new place, beginning ritual activities in a new space, or
to release bad feelings when an inhabitant has been sick or has died. I
did the home cleansing when I once kicked an abusive boyfriend out.
To cleanse a single room - on top of a newspaper,
set a blue candle. Surround with a circle of salt.
Burn a little sage in the room. Light the candle,
making sure it won't tip over. Close the door and let the candle burn
down. When finished, take newspaper, salt, and candle leaving and bury
far from your home.
--------------------------------------
For a Peaceful Home
http://www.spellcentral.com/spell-251/for-a-peaceful-home.html
Gather freshly cut parsley and place it in a pan
of water. Let it soak for nine minutes, and then sprinkle the water
throughout the house while visualizing a calm environment. Peace will be
restored
-----------------------
Peaceful Home
http://www.spellcentral.com/spell-255/peaceful-home.html
This spell is very good if there is a lot of
turmoil or stress in the household.
Do the following spell, and while doing so,
remember to focus on your intent for a peaceful household. Sew a small
pouch of lavender cloth. Place a small trinket in the pouch for each
member of your household. Add to this a pinch each of lavender, rose and
chamomile, before placing each pinch in the pouch, remember to hold it
for a moment and REALLY focus, finally, add a small amethyst. Now,
anoint a lavender or pink candle with peace oil and then light it. Sit
in front of the candle and hold the pouch in your hands and whisper the
following:
chant over it softly 3 times:
Blessed Goddess, most gentle one,
calm my home for me.
Relieve all tension, send it far,
so from stress we shall be free.
Touch my family with peace and calm,
and the sweetest softest bliss,
bless my home, Great Gentle Goddess,
with your calming kiss.
Set the pouch with the candle. Allow the candle to
burn down completely. Hang the pouch in your home, preferably in the
room where everyone gathers the most.
Whenever tension seems to build, repeat the above
chant 3 times and envision peace and tranquility radiating from the
pouch and The Goddess.
------------------------------------
Protection To Dispel Negative Energies...
http://www.thebluefairy.co.uk/protectionspells.htm
Take a small clear crystal, an acorn, some
rosemary and mandrake and a bit of green silk or cotton. It doesn't need
to be a big piece. Cast your circle and creating a pouch from the herbs,
bless them with each element saying the chant.
While this dwells within,
there will be protection without.
Cleanse and charge this charm,
element of against all who wish me ill!
Now hang this somewhere not too obviously, like
hiding it in a corner or over a window.
This will protect you 'til next Samhain when you
should burn it in the sacred fire, crystal and all.
If it is not too tainted, the fire will just
cleanse the crystal and you'll be able to retrieve it from the ashes but
recommend just getting a new one.
---------------------------
Dragon Anger Calming Spell
http://ebon-dragon.com/cotd/Anger.html
Clan of the Dragon
Anger Calming Spell
A modified version of this spell, was published in
a book written by my friend Lilith McLelland: The Salem Witches Book of
Love Spells. In the book this spell can be found on page 79 under the
title "Spell to Ease a Family Quarrel" under the name "Kerowyn
SilverDrake" The spell should be done on a Friday night if possible, or
whenever there is need of it. Formal circle casting is not necessary,
but may be performed if you so desire.
Needed Items:
3 light blue (or white) candles (votives are good
for this)
3 pieces of light blue (or white) paper
Peace Oil (or olive oil or vanilla extract)
Peace Incense (or vanilla or sandalwood)
A blue ink pen
A fire-proof receptacle (such as an empty jar with
a lid)
Step 1: Inscribe each
candle with 2 of the following runes:
Nied: To help calm distressed emotions
Gifu: To restore one's mental equilibrium and perspective
Beorc: To bring harmony back into the household
Sigel: To bring healing to all effected
Kenaz: To renew peace within the family
Ing: To bring a positive ending to the situation
While carving the candles, be sure to visualize
the person who is the object of the spell as being happy, calm and
relaxed. See any problems between the two of you as having already been
resolved in a way that promotes growth, mutual respect and understanding
(not necessarily agreement which may not be possible... just agreeing to
disagree and letting the matter drop).
Step 2: Anoint each
candle with the Peace Oil, again visualizing the other person and you
living in harmony with all quarrels forgiven and forgotten. As you do
so, chant:
Dragons of hearth, Dragons of home,
Stable as Earth, Stable as stone,
Lend me your strength, lend me your calm
Help me to make this magical balm.
Step 3: Light the
peace incense and light the candles. Write the person's name on each
piece of paper in blue ink, and pass each one through the smoke of the
incense and say:
As smoke fades to nothing, so does the anger
that lies between [name] and me.
Let no harsh word or ill feeling remain that may
cloud our hearts or minds.
Light each piece of paper from a different candle
and place it in the fire-proof receptacle. As you light each one, chant:
Peace I send from me to you,
Love I send to follow through.
From this anger be set free,
As I will, so mote it be!
Let the candles burn themselves out if possible.
If not, try to burn the candles for two hours each day/night until they
burn out. If you cast a formal circle close it as usual.
