Is there a special prayer for affixing a mezuzah after you have already been living in your home for some time

Question

I have only affixed mezuzahs prior to moving into a home while blessing the house. We did not affix mezuzahs when we moved into the apartment we have been living in for 3 months and are experiencing some odd occurances. Thus, I would like to bless the apartment and affix mezuzahs, but I'm wondering if there are additional prayers I should or can say?

Answer 1

No same blessings regardless of how long you have lived there. Also affix all the Mezuzahs and only say the blessing once keeping all of them in mind.

Answer 2

I spoke to a Jewish buddy of mine and he suggests asking your rabbi to help you out. He thinks the answer is yes in terms of prayers.
I know what a mezuzah is, it is for protection and the calming of spirits, among probably some other things.
I practice the religion of Ifa, from Africa. We put powerful energies by our doors for protection as well. Little Esu's (he's an Orisa) and Sigidis, which scare away the bad energy, and it really works.
I am a Babalawo, or a high Priest of Ifa and I routinely clean houses. I don't know a lot about Mezuzah's, but I can suggest several things.
Not having the tools I have you can try various things. Walk around the house blowing cigar smoke (if you don't like the smell, it will dissipate after a few days), spirits and ancestors love it. Place a glass of water around the house including in the bathrooms and under the bed if you have bad dreams.
List your ancestors and give them weekly offerings like water, rum, coffee, etc or whatever makes sense to you. Candles of course as well.
Now my wife is from Asia and they do other things. At New Years my wife throws coins all over the house for prosperity, that makes sense anytime. My wife also places plates of Kosher or Sea Salt on plates around the house to suck up negative energies. Very interesting. I hope I was helpful.

Do you go to temple? Ask your Rabbi. Perhaps he or she could even come to your home for a visit. I am not Jewish, but know many Jewish people and am friends with a family of 3 Rabbi. 1 Father and 2 children (Husband and wife) They do not live near however so I am not in close communication. I am Catholic and we are superstious where I live in the southwest, but are you superstisious? Is that a Jewish tradition?
