1 Preliminary Consecrations
1.1 Making Holy Water
Set out a clean bowl of fresh water and a cup of sea salt.
Pray: Our help is in the name of the Lord. Who made heaven and earth.
Lay your right hand on the salt and recite the the Exorcism of Salt:
Gods creature, salt, I cast out the demon from you by the living God, by the true God, by
the holy God, by God who ordered you to be thrown into the water-spring by Eliseus to heal
it of its barrenness. May you be a purified salt, a means of health for those who believe, a
medicine for body and soul for all who make use of you. May all evil fancies of the foul fiend,
his malice and cunning, be driven afar from the place where you are sprinkled. And let every
unclean spirit be repulsed by Him who is coming to judge both the living and the dead and
the world by fire. Amen.
Pray: Almighty everlasting God, we humbly appeal to your mercy and goodness to
graciously bless this creature, salt, which you have given for mankinds use. May all who use
it find in it a remedy for body and mind. And may everything that it touches or sprinkles be
freed from uncleanness and any influence of the evil spirit; through Christ our Lord. Amen.
Lay your right hand on the water and recite the Exorcism of the Water:
Gods creature, water, I cast out the demon from you in the name of God the Father
almighty, in the name of Jesus Christ, His Son, our Lord, and in the power of the Holy Spirit.
May you be a purified water, empowered to drive afar all power of the enemy, in fact, to root
out and banish the enemy himself, along with his fallen angels. We ask this through the
power of our Lord Jesus Christ, who is coming to judge both the living and the dead and the
world by fire. Amen.
Pray: O God, who for mans welfare established the most wonderful mysteries in the
substance of water, hearken to our prayer, and pour forth your blessing on this element now
being prepared with various purifying rites. May this creature of yours, used in your
mysteries and endowed with your grace, serve to cast out demons and to banish disease.
May everything that this water sprinkles in the homes and gatherings of the faithful be
delivered from all that is unclean and hurtful; let no breath of contagion hover there, no taint
of corruption; let all the wiles of the lurking enemy come to nothing. By the sprinkling of this
water may everything opposed to the safety and peace of the occupants of these homes be
banished, so that in calling on your holy name they may know the well-being they desire,
and be protected from every peril; through Christ our Lord. Amen.
Now pour the salt into the water in the form of a cross and say:
May this salt and water be mixed together; in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of
the Holy Spirit. Amen.
Then pray: The Lord be with you. And with thy spirit.
God, source of irresistible might and king of an invincible realm, the ever-glorious
conqueror; who restrain the force of the adversary, silencing the uproar of his rage, and
valiantly subduing his wickedness; in awe and humility we beg you, Lord, to regard with
favor this creature thing of salt and water, to let the light of your kindness shine upon it, and
to hallow it with the dew of your mercy; so that wherever it is sprinkled and your holy name is
invoked, every assault of the unclean spirit may be baffled, and all dread of the serpents
venom be cast out. To us who entreat your mercy grant that the Holy Spirit may be with us
wherever we may be, through Christ our Lord. Amen.

us.
Cast the blessed salt into the water and recite the following Psalms over the salted water

beseech Thee, these creatures of light which Thou hast given for the Kindly use of man that
they, by Thee being sanctified, may not be put out or extinguished by power, malice, or filthy
darkness of the devil, but may shine forth brightly and lend their assistance to this my Work,
through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.

desires of your heart. Amen.
Cleansing Bath
Shower, then fill a vessel with water and recite
the following prayer:
I exorcise thee, O Creature of Water, by Him Who hath
created thee and gathered thee together in one place
so that the dry land appeared, that thou uncover all the
deceits of the Enemy, and that thou cast out from thee
all the impurities and uncleanesses of the Spirit of the
World of Phantasm, so they may harm me not, through
the virtue of God Almighty Who liveth and reigneth
unto the Ages of Ages. Amen.
Now recite the following prayer over a small
amount of salt:
The Blessing of the Father Almighty be upon this
Creature of Salt, and let all malignity and hindrance be
cast forth hencefrom, and let all good enter herein, for
without Thee men cannot live, wherefore I bless thee
and invoke thee, that thou mayest aid me.
Mix it with the water and pray:
O Lord Adonai, Who has formed me thine unworthy
servant in Thine Image and resemblance of vile and
abject earth; deign to bless and to sanctify this Water,
so that it may be for the health and purification of my
soul, and of my body, so that no foolishness or
deceitfulness may therein in any way have place.
O Most Powerful and Ineffable God, Who madest Thy
people pass dryshod through the Red Sea when they
came up out of the Land of Egypt, grant unto me grace
that I may be purified and regenerated from all my past
sins by this Water, so that no uncleanness may appear
upon me in Thy Presence.
