I don't have anything mentionable in the Northeast. My apartment is the 2nd one coming from the East on the top floor. Only thing that comes to mind is that the next apartment building has a dumpster in line with our sidewalk to the East. but I can't see it from my front door.

Hells gate? Great!     The mirrors if put up the way i am thinking will reflect both the kids' room door and the tiger picture just above the center of the door frame.

I am trying to think of a sacred item... looking for a rosary I think I have somewhere...

I thank my grandma and mom for having blessed me with some real little treasures - a white mother of pearl rosary I know was blessed during my first communion and a pink one my grandma owned if I recall right. Also a small ring shaped military one that I can't remember if it was my grandpa's or what, but I happen to have 3 rosaries, 2 little silver amulets with guardian angels that say in German "God protect you!", a small amulet of Mary, mother of Jesus that states a German request to be able to find refuge with her. I also have a small amulet with a depiction of Mary of Lourdes and another cross my mom used to wear. I think she had gotten it for her 1st communion as well, but got another one later. So much for growing up catholic.. =) I am officially Lutheran, openly Christian and 100% spiritual...

The white rosary will go in the kids' room. I think it's great that it's got mother of pearl... The properties of mother of pearl are:    
   *  Intimately connected to the sea - represents the tides of emotion
   * An easy flow of feelings and sensitivities to others
   * Connected to family and particularly motherhood
   * Harmony in relationships
   * The play and variety of colors represent change as the beauty of existence

Goes great with the white tigress! I will also add the guardian angel amulets in their room.

The other items I placed into my sacred little altar shelf for the moment.

Nice.  Keep me update how things go.

Yes I will... and btw  am open to any prayers and mantras you suggest - anything to protect my kids/family!! So pm away if you like! I think I'll try and turn in before 3am ;) enough witching hours for today!

Thanks for all your support and blessings from the MOST HIGH to you!!

Hi, PetraVanilla.  Sorry for the late reply.  Had to go out and buy some food for dinner (and eat it too ).  I've sent the prayers for protection against evil to your PM.  The following though are the mantras which I said effectively neutralized evil (not just bad) chi.  Do forgive me for this, moderators.  But its something that must be openly shared as some might need it.  And as per I was taught such prayers/mantras are to be shared free of cost.

The Maha Mrityunjaya mantra collection which is the same as the one given to me by my late guru friend (and given to him by his guru too from India) can be found in the following:

There are two download links.  The one for just the Maha Mrityunjaya mantra can be downloaded here:

For the whole collection, it can be downloaded here:

What I usually ask those who are to use this is just to play Tracks 1 and 6 once a day for a week (well, 108x each as much as possible).  This is to cleanse you as the full effect of the Maha Mrityunjaya mantra isn't something to be taken lightly of.  You are warned not to use this for ill will as it will have serious effects upon you.  When you are to use any of the mantras in this collection you must think good thoughts.  Think of positive things happening even to your foes.

You can use an electronic player but its best that you recite it.  Sometimes, those bad ones tend to do damage to equipment :P

I'll try to look for the rest of my prayer set and forward them to you ASAP.
