The home is a person's sanctuary and their base. It is a port in a storm, somewhere to sleep. The home can be a place to take pride in or to be nonchalant about. But, homes can pick up any number of very strange energies and weird feelings. There is a book by Davd Furlong, called 'Healing Your Family Patterns' and this book talks of the 'house clock' meaning that if something bad happened in a dwelling it could easily repeat itself unless cleared.
Often 'divorce houses' will have other divorces in them, the same with 'disabled houses' or 'argument houses' or 'illness houses'. One of the most well known 'harbinger/doom houses' is a place long since pulled down and yet the land is still full of residual energy, called Milner Field, near Bingley in West Yorkshire. The gate houses still stand and the place attracts a flurry of interest from time to time.
One of the most simple ways to clear a property is by using a white candle and burning it whilst casting good vibrations in to the heart of the house. Sage can be used for smudging but this does not always work - though it always shows it working on TV.
Another thing that can be done is to put a cup of salt in the north, a lit incense stick in the east, a candle in the south and a cup of water in the west and leave this in a central position in the home until all burns down.
Playing loud music and hitting the walls with a cushion dispels stuck energy too - it is best to open the windows to let the negativity out at the same time.
Holiday apartments and hotels can often pick up stuck and stale energy due to the high turnover of people who use them. So however sunny a temporary holiday or business home or room of any kind, anywhere, looks, a quick clearing ritual should make your stay more peaceful generally, as your temporary home becomes aligned and in tune with you and your personal energies and feelings.
