Home Blessing and Reconsecration

On this date in 1891 was the inauguration and blessing of the Basilica of San Sebastian in Manila, Philippines, the only all-steel church in Asia. Take this anniversary as a cue to remember that our homes are also sacred sanctuaries worthy of blessing. Even if you have lived in your home for many years and have already blessed it, a home can never have too many blessings, so enjoy performing a reconsecration! Gather a representation of each element, such as blessed sea-salt water for earth and water, smudge or incense for air and fire, and a bell or rattle for spirit. Make a round through your home with each element, wafting, sprinkling, and ringing/rattling as appropriate. Repeat a simple blessing during the process such as:

"I bless this home as sacred space.
May divine love dwell within this
place."
