Dear Karen,

When a couple does space clearing for their house together is it best to work separately in completely different areas of the room, to each clear the same areas, or clear different rooms?

Karen's reply:

When more than one person is involved in doing a Space Clearing ceremony it is vital that they do it together as a team rather than independently in separate areas, which sounds very discordant and results in a lack of harmony.

In a small building, it is best for one person to do the clapping, another person to do the bell ringing, and so on. In a larger building, one person could start the clapping and when they get tired the next person steps in and takes over, handing the energy over to the new person in the same way that a baton is handed over in a relay race. This works beautifully.
