Demon Banishing

Color of the day:  Purple
Incense of the day:  Vanilla
 
According to legends of the people of Cypress, mischievous demons called kalikandjari arrive on Christmas Day and scheme and play pranks on people. Today is the day they depart, it is said.

In honor of this legend, it seems like a good day to do a good heavy clearing of the home in order to prevent any such little nasties from moving in, or perhaps to usher a few out! A good round of dragon's blood incense, followed by frankincense and myrrh, will do nicely. Walk through the home counterclockwise with the burning incense, and perhaps follow it up with some loud noise by ringing bells or banging pots and pans.

In many cultures, this is a traditional practice this time of year for banishing malevolent and stale energies. Some cultures also leave an offering outside and away from the home to lure mischievous spirits away from the dwelling.
