Locking a mirror is a crucial practice in witchcraft, as it prevents it from acting as a portal or entryway. To lock mirrors, use Florida water/olive oil (cleansing oils) and draw a protective sign/sigil with your middle and pointer finger of your hand. Visualize a lock and hear a click in your head when completed.
In modern witchcraft, practitioners use mirrors for introspect, beauty spells, and as a gateway to alternate dimensions. To lock a mirror, draw a protection symbol onto the mirror before the full moon and place it in the moonlight to charge overnight. When you want to use the protection of the charged mirror, simply place it in the sun. Mirrors are also used for scrying, harnessing the power of the sun and moon, divination, banishing, binding, sending baneful magic back to the sender, and protection.
To unlock a mirror, use sigils or symbols of power or protection. You can also cover the mirror with a alcohol-based herbal extract to draw sigils on glass. Start by cleaning the mirror, wiping in a counterclockwise direction, smoking cleanse, and drawing a protective symbol/sigil/rune in all four corners. Lock the mirror with a key.
In conclusion, locking mirrors is essential for protection when bringing new or old spirits into the space. To lock mirrors, use visualization and draw a protective sign/sigil with your middle and pointer finger of your hand. Using moon water, solar water, or river water, circle the mirror counterclockwise x 3 and clockwise x 3.

I used water to emergency lock mirror in hotel apartment last holidays. It was old, wierd mirror with something perusal from it. I used very simple sigil and it worked for all three days. But if I have it, I’ll use alcohol based herbal extract to draw sigils on glass – when it dries it becomes invisible 🙂
I was taught to use a wet finger and draw a symbol of protection on the mirror and command the mirror to close in the name of whatever deity you like. I was also taught a universal protection symbol would be the Cho Ku Rei symbol from Reiki because the symbol can be used by anyone and it will always work.
I wish I had this concise article years ago when I decided to put three large mirrors in my bedroom. Two of them face each other and it’s always made me uneasy. I opted for putting sigils on tape and sticking the tape to the back of the mirror. When it comes time to cleanse my room I can remove the tape sigil and put a new one on the back. I do the same for my front door. It’s discreet and no one see it.
Thank you so much for this. I never see anyone giving advice about mirrors so thank you. Before I was a Wiccan I had a TV that my Grandad used to own. My grandad loved me and I him but there was something not right with that TV. It was OK when it was switched on but when it was off I could feel eyes perusal me through the screen. With perusal this article it’s just made me think about this experience. This was before any of my witchcraft so I had no idea at the time so as soon as I could afford another TV I got one. Now years later I’m a Wiccan Witch and my favourite thing to do is Scrying. I don’t like using mirrors as they are way too deep if that makes sense. I prefer water or my Crystal. It’s thanks to my Scrying that saw an amazing ouroborrus moving clockwise that was the last sign to get the message through to start working with Hekate. I could see every scale and detail It was amazing. Thank you for your informative articles I learn so much from you 🌛🌕🌜
Such good tips and suggestions! As a child I grew up in a home where the main hallway of the home had a mirror facing the entrance, a mirror facing down the hall, then the bathroom mirror facing towards that hallway, and then there was a mirror in my bedroom that shared the wall of that hallway (basically, a boxed hall of mirrors). It definitely made for very strong liminal space! Luckily my mother figured it out and locked all of the mirrors in that area.
Topic near and dear to my heart! Since my very active feng shui days, I’ve feared mirrors–they’re just holy hell. When I’m in a hotel (I don’t like hotel rooms) I cover the mirrors with sheets, towels, blankets or anything. I really hate mirrored closet doors. Ugh. At home I only have 2 bathroom mirrors above sinks, but I will now lock them a la Hearth. The technique of using the opposite side is a feng shui basic–sometimes prescribed for offices in which your “neighbor” annoys the crap out of you, is dishonest, etc. You use a small mirror and attach it to the wall with the mirror surface facing the other office, then hang a picture or poster, perhaps a peg board to cover it up. Voila. (It’s like saying “Stay the hell out of my life!)
Had a strange dream about mirrors and Tv’s as gates and that evil spirits were attacking me. Strangely, I’ve not been one to dabble in dark arts but have grown curious as things I can’t explain have started happening. In the dream I met a woman and felt safe in her house as her tv’s and mirrors were locked. Long story short I decided to do some research on the topic and was drawn here. Thanks for the info, it was very enlightening.
Excellent article, as always! I have searched for articles on this and there aren’t many available. I have had a.very scary experience with something that came through and a friend had something similar. Since at the time I knew nothing about locking mirrors…wasn’t a practitioner then…I asked Archangel Michael to protect the space and keep anything from coming through. Also thoroughly saged the entire apartment.
I wish I found this website YEARS ago. I’ve had night terrors, spirits, amunwantrd astral projection & chaotic energy in my bedroom because of the two mirrors in there. They always made my uneasy but they opened up my room (open to everything & everywhere!). I have moved them out of the room now but I’m wondering if covering them at night is as effective as locking it?
Thank you for this article, it arrives right in time. I only realise now thank’ to this article, than the places in my appartment that have the more weird activity are in front of mirrors. Actually I’m laughing at myself for this but… I have a big mirror in my corridor.. in front of a door, which has a window alligned with it. And i was wondering why it was always a very active zone. Haha hank you !
I spray the mirror with water infused with ashes from burnt incenses while I say a small spell that i wrote myself. then i have a pointy crystal, (actually the first crystal i ever bought in my life) and i tap in the center of the mirror visualizing the mirror freezing with a light, I call it frozen light. You can try it! For me it works.
Okay, I love mirrors and have so many in my house and feel extremely comfortable with them all but this information has been food for thought. I am at the learning stages gathering information type of space but have always done so much stuff without even realising that thats what is practiced in this craft which has been really rad to learn. I’ve not long started perusal your content and find it absolutely brilliant information to move forward. Namaste 🌿
This is something I have not heard before actually, I have heard the term liminal space before but don’t know much about them. I am interested in scrying though. Also just wondered if you had any advice if you were finding it difficult to progress in your craft due to just stress and anxiety? Bought my first couple of starter books last year and I was so excited to start on my path but due to my mental health my progress has been dissapointingly slow. I just wondered if you or anyone else has had any advice, there are a lot of things I want to try but I need to get past this mental hurdle first and make time for my practice in my life.
Thank you! I was waiting this informacion. A few years ago i listened that the shadow man can go thourth that mirror, but i didn’t know how to protect. Many years ago i made the exercise in one big mirror, amd then i can see a shadow men so i was scared!!! That was awfull, i always feel (even i was a child) that somebody is seeing me, but then with exercise i feel something differente. Then i meet the previous experience. And i think that should be a way to protect that. Sobody told me with obsidian it is better, because they (the other side) can not passaway to our side. That is correct? Anybody knows that?
Sorry, I didn’t understand one thing well, so if I have to use a mirror for a ritual and therefore remove the block, there is no risk that some unpleasant presence comes from the mirror or the precautions taken during the ritual are sufficient to protect even the mirror that is used?! Thanks to anyone who can answer me.
Hello, I am Bel. A beginner and I found your amazing website this morning, do you have more articles where you talk specifically about these liminal places? Because just today I heard about it for the first time, also heard that having a chair in my room is not something so good tho 😬so I would love to know more about all of this and you are so clear in your explanations ♡
P.s. I lock the big mirror in my house with agua florida, drawing a cross on the very top of it with agua florida, after it is phisically and metaphisically been cleansed. Also: I keep it behind a door that opens directly on it: A mirror is a door as should be treated as such, opened only when necessary and immediately closed after. I found, as a person who suffered with eating disorders in the past, that they can lead into the darkest corners of your mind and trap you in them. Nooooo good 😅
I was just binge perusal some of your older articles and the new one on “Lockwood & Co.” and now you upload! 🙌 Yay! I was curious about locking mirrors since you mentioned it in your livestreams. I have several mirrors in my home, there’s 3 alone in the room that I’m sleeping in. 😆 And while I would love to have spirit activity and interaction in my home, this will be incredibly useful if someone or something’s coming through that shouldn’t be here. So thank you for once again sharing your incredible knowledge with us! 🙏 I hope you’re having a wonderful day! ✨🤗 (Also I was wondering if there will be a livestream today, since it is Wednesday and the 15th. Do you usually do the streams one week after if the 15th happens to fall on a Wednesday?)
