Advice from old witches) Witches sweep at night not out of fear, but out of wisdom. Sweeping after sunset is not loss or misfortune, it is conscious cleansing. It is closing cycles, gathering what the day left behind and returning it to the Earth transformed.
In ancestral tradition, sweeping is a ritual act: both visible and invisible spaces are cleansed.
Dust is not just dust; it is stagnant energy, foreign emotions, thoughts that no longer serve us. Night is not negative darkness; night is womb, silence, intuition.
It is the time when the witch listens, orders, and protects her home and her spirit.
Superstitions were born from fear of the wise woman, the one who knew how to close energetic doors, the one who did not allow anything dense to cross the threshold.
Superstitions were born from fear of the wise woman, the one who knew how to close energetic doors, the one who didn’t allow anything dense to cross the threshold. Sweeping at night is saying to the universe:
“Only what vibrates with light, respect, and balance dwells here.” The broom doesn’t steal fortune, the broom protects. It doesn’t drive away abundance, it removes the blockages that prevent it from arriving. Witches sweep at night because they know that external order harmonizes the internal, because they honor their sacred space, and because they don’t fear the night: they understand it.
And whoever sweeps with intention, with respect and awareness, loses nothing… they only release what has already fulfilled its purpose.
