I can’t tell you how many people assume that because I’m a medium, Halloween is a big day for me. Of course, there are fun activities like carving pumpkins or going to Halloween parties, and I know Alexa and I will love taking Royce trick-or-treating, but I don’t feel a connection with the scary side of Halloween.
I want nothing to do haunted houses, gruesome decorations, and horror movies – but during this time of year, they’re everywhere! In my world, it’s important that I focus on the light and not open the door to negative influences from either side of the veil.
“Don’t Go Looking for Darkness!”
When I was young, my grandmother made sure I understood that my mediumship was a wonderful gift, and not something to be afraid of. She also let me know that negative and destructive spirits exist but they wouldn’t bother me, as long as I didn’t seek them out. She always encouraged me to come from a place of light rather than focusing on darkness, and to never mess around with ouija boards or spells.
I still remember her advice, and it’s always worked for me! But there are times, like after a major event or trauma or when you’ve moved into a new house, that you might feel the need for an extra “positive energy boost.” With Halloween around the corner, this seems like the perfect opportunity to share some time-tested techniques for clearing out the darkness, and shielding and protecting your space.
Cleansing Rituals Make Room for the Light!
Psychic smudging is what most people think of when they want to clear out negative energy in a new home, or cleanse any space where the atmosphere seems dark and heavy. It involves the burning of specific herbs, usually sage, to cleanse and purify a space. Take these easy steps and see if you feel the difference:
- Set Your Intention: Begin with a clear intention. Focus on removing negative energy and fostering a sense of peace and positivity in your home.
- Prepare Your Space: Open your windows and doors to allow the negative energy to exit.
- Light your sage or herb bundle. You can tie dried sage leaves together with cotton string or thread, or purchase a pre-tied bundle. Light your bundle carefully, then blow out the flame, allowing the herbs to smolder and produce smoke.
- Walk Through Your Home: Starting at the entrance, walk through each room, moving the sage bundle in a counterclockwise direction. Pay special attention to corners, doorways, and areas that feel energetically heavy.
- Express Gratitude: As you complete the process, express gratitude for the cleansing and protection.
Using Crystals to Ward off Evil Spirits.
Amethyst, selenite, obsidian, and quartz crystal has a long history of warding off evil spirits and negative energy. Here are some ways to use them to ward off evil spirits and protect your home and space from negative energy.
- Find a few crystals that speaks to you. It could be amethyst, selenite, obsidian or quartz crystal.
- Place a few crystals in a small pottery dish in any room, to absorb negative energy and protect against malevolent forces.
- For personal protection, some people even thread crystals and wear them as jewelry or place them in their pockets or pocketbooks.
- Place crystals outside on the home in the four corners of the house. You can bury them just below the surface or place them on the inside of your home.
More Protection Techniques
Here are a few more techniques to protect your home and yourself from evil energy:
- Salt Cleansing: Sprinkle a thin line of salt across window sills and doorways to create a protective barrier. Salt is believed to absorb negative energy.
- Salt Lams : Place salt lamps around your home to absorb negative energy and promote positivity.
- Blessings and Positive Affirmations: Conduct a personal blessing of your living space. Walk through each room, expressing your intention for protection and love in your home. Regularly affirm positive intentions for your home by reciting affirmations, prayers, or mantras.
- Protective Charms: Create or purchase protective warding charms, like the “Evil Eye” or “Hamsa,” and display them in your home.
I hope these tips help make your environment pure and welcoming. In addition to these tips, I’m a big believer in the power of a fresh breeze, family photos, beautiful music, and laughter to elevate your space and bring in the light.
One last thing – the secret ingredient in any energy cleansing rituals is YOU. As you try these techniques, set your intention to release any negativity and allow only positive energy into your home, and your life!

Matt, I have some extremely tormenting some kind of energy 7 not sure at all what it is. They have been communicating as well as spraying me & on walls, flooring, ceiling etc & on any given surface then it [itches guck literally on me. There’s more & clearing/cleansing with safe or saw palmetto just hasn’t been enough. It’s higjhy territorial & at this point, very very scary. There are times with its manipulating & pulling I can bearly get out the door let alone wash & dress. Can you help me or recommend someone that doesn’t cost an arm & a leg as I’m a regular good lady & on a pension. I’ve tried remote removal but that was for the birds & did nothing. I am an empath & mediumistic yes but I never opened myself up to anything negative etc. I never invited it/them into my life or anything. I hope to hear from because in the last 2-3 months it now even actually touches me & far too disgusting.
A friend heard of the ghost that visits me and knocks on the door of my room with 3 taps. The last time scared me because it was loud and I was in the bathroom. So she gave a beautiful prayer and it has not been back. Whew!
I just did a salt cleansing in my bedroom last night including lighting sage and letting my intensions be known for positivity. I’ve been hearing a lot of noise and seeing a lot of movement the last couple weeks. But the night before last was my deal breaker. There was clawing at my bed, the frame was being pushed up from underneath while my child and i were in the bed. Scratching on my walls. Sensations of my legs being grabbed and shadows in the doorway. After last night, it was quiet and we slept good.
Thank you
I wish I can feel the spirits who have passed any time
Thank You Matt! This was perfect I just move, And I I really wanted to clear my home! Thank You 🙂
Thank you for reminding us to keep our homes and lives positive and full of good energy. It has been a tough few years for me and I think I will do a cleanse like you suggested as I get ready for the Christmas season. Last year was not great at all but perhaps taking charge of things might help.
I never take dark and negative energies seriously but the way things have gone for me these past few years being around dark and negative members of my family and some new friends I can get a chance to change this.
Hi Matt! Thank you for this! Can’t wait to attend your November 11 online reading!
We were just talking about burning sage, we have THE WORST LUCK and the most negative energy in this old house. It’s my husband’s parents old house that we remodeled, and while we were remodeling a couple of things happened. #1. Hubby and daughter walked through front door one day, no wind, no breeze whatsoever and a cap flew off of a table. #2. Bought a new hammer, was working on a floor joist, laid it down, turned to get it and it was GONE, never to be seen again. Hoping saging helps! Thanks!!!
Thank you so much for your knowledge. I BELIEVE IN YOU AND PLEASE STAY YOURSELF.YOU ARE A BEAURIFUL SOUL
Hi, Matt! So happy you brought up the subject. I was staying overnight at a relative’s house, sleeping on the couch. One night I heard a tap on the wall, so I looked , and a black hooded figure glided in, right by me, and out the door. The next night I heard the same sound. I looked, and the same black hooded figure glided by, but this time stopped at the door, turned to face me, gave a gentle familiar smile, and glided out the door. Never returned. I didn’t feel any fear, nor did I feel any evil looming. He was familiar. Do you have anything to say about that? I’d love to hear your opinion.
Thank you for all the tip. My house is haunted but in a good way. Some examples I found a penny under my bathroom mat heads up. I found my underwear drawer open and I was sweeping my floor and the door opened and my teddy bear turn around

Hi Georgette,
A Salt lamp is a very beautiful lamp( mostly a orange hue), which is made from Himalayan salt. They are fantastic for improving air quality and helps to improve health concerns ; particularly breathing difficulties. They are really beautiful and very ” zen”. They have a standard electric cord and bulb. I have one and love it
Good morning Matt I got to tell you, you changed my thinking when it comes to psychic mediums I really didn’t believe in them but the first time I listened to you something happened to me that I cannot explain and ever since then I’ve been listening to you. See you on Dec.3rd for a online reading.lots of love to u and yours
Hi Matt!! I have been having the strangest thing happening in my dining room. I would walk by the table, and one chair was always pulled out. I couldn’t figure out why, no one had been I there. I pushed it in, and it just kept happening. My husband asked me why I was always pulling the chair out! And I said I wasn’t.I am scared of the dark and ghosts and everything, but I wasn’t scared of this at all. My friend said someone was trying to get a message to me. But no message has come forth! My daughter saged my house for me, but it is still happening. I really just want to know why. Any thoughts?? Thank you! Would love for you to come to Wellington again!!
Thank you for reminding about the psychic smudging. I’ve done it in the past, but I had completely forgotten about it. I will also be purchasing a salt lamp! I love listening to you
