In this video, I share 5 ways to harness the spiritual power of sea salt, including why I put salt in the corners of my room.
5 Spiritual Uses of Salt
Spiritual Meaning of Salt ā
The Bible says that salt is the best known and necessary seasoning for human food, as it was abundant in Israel, especially in and around the Dead Sea. In fact, the expression āthe salt of the earthā derives from Matthew 5:13.
The meaning of āthe salt of the earthā was coined in reference to the value of salt. This is reflected in other old phrases too, for example, the aristocratic and powerful of the earth were āabove the saltā and valued workers were āworth their saltā.
Furthermore, all the sacrifices that were offered had to be seasoned with salt (Leviticus 2:13). The idea was to reject everything that produced fermentation and decay, and to include what aided preservation.
Benefits of Sea Salt Cleanses
Sea salt is an ingredient that has not been manipulated, this type of salt preserves its natural properties intact. It stands out for its high content of essential minerals that provide a wide variety of benefits for the body.
Since ancient times, it was customary to take baths in the sea. Thalassotherapy is the use of seawater as a form of therapy and it spread throughout Europe as a way to use the healing and beneficial properties of sea salt and the marine environment.
Not only sea salt cleanses negative energy but it also helps cleanse and detoxify the skin.
āThe cure for everything or anything is salt water ā tears, sweat or the sea.ā
This quote by Isak Dinesen speaks of the healing power of salt. A spiritual salt water treatment can be as simple as taking a bath and adding a cup of Epsom salt or Himalayan pink salt.
Salt + Vinegar + Water Energy Cleanse
Vinegar is an acidic ingredient that cleanses and purifies negative energies. It is known to help release astral parasites.
For this ritual we need a glass jar, vinegar, salt, and water. Also a small dish. Add 1/3 of each ingredient in the jar and place the dish underneath. This is a great detector of stagnant energy. As the days go by, the salt will come out of the jar and the vinegar will evaporate.
Depending on the energies at home, the mixture may acquire an odor, rot or change its color. After about a week, when the vinegar has evaporated, take the jar to a tap and let the water run. Then throw the salt in the compost or trash.
What does it mean to dream about salt?
Dreaming about using a salt shaker portends richness and abundance ahead. However, if the salt shaker is tipped over or broken, it suggests that you may lose your wealth due to carelessness.
