There are several ways to create a magical floor wash. The simplest is to place herbs that correspond to what you are trying to achieve in a bowl. Pour hot water over the herbs and let them steep for 10 to 15 minutes; drain the liquid into a bucket and add warm tap water and the cleaning product of your choice. Soaps and products made with pine oil are good choices. Use the mix to clean floors, walls, door frames, and windowsills. Always be careful with the type and color of herb used, to avoid staining. You can use an herbal wash to cleanse your home of negative energies or to promote positive feelings, such as love or calm. When doing the actual cleaning, wash clockwise when drawing positive things to you, counter-clockwise when ridding your home of unwanted energies.
