Water is a psychic element; it absorbs or picks up all energies, because of this we should cleanse or exercise the water.
- Take your wand or athame and place the tip into the bowl of water
- Visualize the energy flowing throughout your body, right out of your wand or athame, directly into the bowl
"I exercise thee, oh creature of water, let there be no unwanted energy contained within thee. In the names of the Lady and Lord, so mote it be."

"I bless thee, oh creature of salt, in the names of the Lady and Lord; enrich, bless, and ground this ritual. So mote it be."
After cleansing and blessing the salt and water, combine the two using your wand or athame to mix them.
