In accordance with tradition, witches typically hang bells above their doors or windows, particularly around door handles or over the door, as a means of safeguarding their space and deterring negative energies, harm, and malevolent entities. When hanging your bell, it is recommended to recite the following or similar chant three times, while maintaining a strong focus on your intention and the alignment of your will:
"Guardians of the air, I beseech your protection. Safeguard this place at all times and in all realms. Dissipate any ill will, negativity, or curses that may seek entry and allow only benevolent spirits that I welcome into this realm to enter, So Mote It Be!".
