Protecting Room Against Spirits

[wantsumrice]

Hey guys, it's been a while    How's everything?

Well, I come to you for some advice now.  I've always protected any room I move into by putting my hand on one of the walls and saying a little ritual.  Basically asking my guide to protect this room and not let any spirits within the walls.  However, I may be doing this wrong, because for a while now I can sense that there's a presence in my room.  

I don't have anything against spirits, but I like sleeping in peace at night.

So if any of y'all could help me out, it'd be greatly appreciated

Well, to begin with, I'm no expert.

I might say, though, that without some kind of one-on-one dialogue with your guide you can't be sure how effective your ritual was, or if your guide has the ability to just turn away anything that comes around.

There are a lot of other counter-measures.  Garlic, holy symbols (whatever you believe in.  I use a quartered circle).  Salt absorbs negative energy.  You can maybe repeat your ritual once a week.  I don't know how long something like that might last.

Yeah, I've been waking up with suspicious scratches, so I've been employing these things I mention, starting today.  Holy symbols on the plants in my windowsill, and the calender by the door.  Keep a light on when I'm not around.  Keep the closet open.  

Garlic, too.  Apparently an unberably strong  smell from the point of view of a negative entity.

Hope I helped.
