A simple knot spell to cleanse and protect your space every time you open the door.

The best part of this spell is that it will cleanse and protect the space daily. It’s also super easy for beginners and simple to customize.
Make sure you read the notes for color variances and tips!
What you’ll need:
- Five white pieces of cord, yarn, embroidery floss, rope, etc.
- One brown piece of cord, yarn, embroidery floss, rope, etc.
- One black piece of cord, yarn embroidery floss, rope, etc.
- One blue piece of cord, yarn, embroidery floss, rope, etc.
- One green piece of cord, yarn, embroidery floss, rope, etc.
- One yellow or gold piece of cord, yarn, embroidery floss, rope, etc.
- Bell
Collect your cords together and knot them once at the top while saying “This spell has begun.”
Make second knot while saying, “This space is home.”
Make third knot while saying, “This space is mine.”
Make a fourth knot while saying, “This space is happy.”
Make a fifth knot while saying, “This space is safe”
Make a six knot while saying, “This space is protected”
Make a seventh knot while saying, “This space is clean.”
Make an eight knot while saying, “This space is cleansed.”
For the ninth and final knot, slid the bell onto the cords and knot it along or above the final knot. Do this while saying, “Every time this bell rings, this spell begins again.”
Nail or pin the knotted spell above the door or on the door knob.
Notes:
- Use your own color association to pick cord colors.
- You can always add more while or just use plain while cord for this spell
- You can enchant each cord first for your purposes.
- You can soak the cord material in cleaning water, moon water, or enchanted water to add a bit of extra magic. You can wash the bell the same way.
- The bell doesn’t need to be big or fancy, but brass is a good choice if you’re going to buy a bell specifically for this spell.
- You can write or engrave on the bell for added magic.
- You can add beads to the cord, but make sure they aren’t beads that will break or annoy you when banging into the door.
- If you’d prefer, you can braid, crochet, or otherwise interweave the cords in whatever way you like. I usually braid it, but to each their own.
- I like to work in a finished loop at the top of the cord spell sometimes to give the cord spell something to hang from, not unlike a loop in a macramé plant hanger, but I’ve also just used a push pin to pin the spell to the wall.
- Tying it on the doorknob works well, but make sure it won’t get in the way of opening and closing the door.
