According to Feng Shui 77, the scent of citrus can fend off negative energy in any given space. Here is how you can make your own cirtus fragrance to deflect negative karma.
Purchase fresh oranges from a grocery. Scratch its peel with your fingernails to make certain that the scent is strong.
Feng Shui 77
- Peel three fresh oranges, and tear each peel into nine pieces (for a total of 27 pieces), and place the pieces in a large bowl. Add about a cup of fresh (preferably filtered) water.
- Standing in the center of each room, dip your fingers in the orange-scented water and gently flick some of it in all directions. At the same time, visualize negative chi being dispersed from the space, and repeat the mantra om mani padme hum nine times.
- Then, take a piece of orange peel and break off little bits of it, scattering them all around the perimeter of each room.
- Leave the orange peel for 24 hours. The orange peels will absorb negative chi, which you can then easily sweep or vacuum up and throw away.
If you have excess orange peel and water left in the bowl after step 3, save it!. Place the bowl in the center of the house for 24 hours.
