Intent: To set your household wards when you lock your front door.
Materials:
Your front door key
Ideal Timing: Whenever you cast or refresh your household wards
A witchling once approached me with the following question: “How do household wards know when and when not to let people in?” My answer was simple: “You tell them the difference.” This spell is one example of how to do just that. It works best when you are the homeowner, but as long as you call the place home, it should work.
Upon completion of your ritual for setting household protections, whatever that may be, take your house key and go to the front door. Place your dominant hand flat against the inside of the door, with the key between your palm and the door’s surface.
Say in a strong clear voice:
This is my home And I hold the key; No one may enter Unless bidden by me.
If you feel the need, you can repeat this on other exterior doors for added security. Upon leaving your home, make sure you lock your doors and windows. The act of locking the front door from the outside with your key sets the wards until you return.
After you lock your front door, place your hand upon it and say, “No one but me.” If someone else is to allowed in, include them as well, i.e. “No one but me or my spouse/roommate/parent/child/etc.” Again, this will work best for people who actually live in the home, or whom you’ve given permission to be there in your absence.
Please note that this is not a foolproof method for deterring intruders. Take any and all mundane measures of security needed to ensure the safety of your home and its’ occupants.
