It is now harder to acquire holy water especially if you live in a place wherein the pandemic is still ongoing.

To make your own holy water at home, these are some of the things that you can do:

-Make sure that you will gather and consecrate the salt that you are going to use for the holy water.

-Find water that you can get from a natural source.

-Make sure that the water is exorcised.

-Pour the salt into the water in the form of a cross.

-As you pour in the salt, make sure that you will say the prayer that you want.

With all of these things in mind, you can create the holy water that you need at home.

It can be especially hard for some Catholics right now to gain access to holy water especially if churches in their areas are still closed. This may prompt them to create their own holy water at home.

How are you going to do this?

These are the steps:

• You have to get regular water and sea salt.
• Make sure that you will form the sign of the cross as you slowly pour the salt in the water.
• As you pour in the salt, you would need to recite a specific prayer. The short version of the prayer will go like, “May this salt and water be mixed together.” Then recite the sign of the cross while making the hand gestures of doing the sign of the cross.

By doing this, you will have enough holy water at home that you can use to protect your home from evil.

Holy water is a part of many religions. It is looked at as a way to cleanse the body and spirit from sins. To make your own holy water, follow these steps.

• First, add salt to a bowl and bless it. There are many prayers throughout the various religions to bless substances like salt.

• Next, get water from a natural source, such as a lake or a river

• Perform an exorcism over the water

• Then, add salt into the water, doing so in the shape of a cross

• Lastly, bless the water, using the same or different blessing that you used in the first step.
