I do, in fact, live next door a large cemetery. I do absolutely nothing to keep the spirits away. They've never come around bothering me, either. They're quiet and mind their own business. Best neighbors I've ever had.

A friend of mine lived across the street from a Chinese cemetary. They would light firecrackers to keep the spirits away. The sound and the smoke and the red paper, I guess, all served to keep the spirits away. That's what I would do.

Spirits/Entities are all around.. Crazy as it may sound to some but they are. Before you enter your house say in your head "only what is for the highest good and the highest good only may enter this house" with strong intention. I believe intention is stronger then any object that will ward off spirits. Burning a white candle helps if you light it with the intention to keep your house clear. These are some of the things I do and have learned... Hope some of this helps you!

Hi first thing first about living "near" to a cemetary, this world we live in "IS" a cemetary, you live in a world where everyone is as good as Dead however Jesus Christ the second member of The Godhead "IS" our ONLY Way out, now about the state of The Dead in The begining God in Gen. 2:7 And the LORD God formed man [of] the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul.
DID YOU NOTICE man BECAME a living soul God DID NOT just poke a soul into Him, now the state of The dead, in in
Job 27:3 we are told spirit is breath and in Ps.146:3,4 we are told that when mankind dies the thoughts perish, and that spirit according to Eccl.12:7 goes back to God who gave it at death, find out more free bible lessons www.itiswritten.com God bless email me also wgr88@yahoo.com

Why must you keep spirits away, if you know they are there? The spirits may be one member of your family too or your ancestors. I am sure they wont scare or harm on you. If they does appear than should very well send regards and ask how's life there. The least you can do for us.

Well if you believe in that sort of thing (I don't personally but if you happen to . . .)
Horseshoe over the door, ends pointed up
Mirror reflecting back through the front door
Get a blessing on the house from the holy guy of your choice
"Smudging" with the proper plants is supposed to work
Dream catcher
Spirits don't like to cross running water
And certain plants may repel them. (A nice white rose hedge would be pleasant in any case)

a wrought Iron fence--back in the old days all cemetaries had them surrounding them to keep the spirits in

No, I lived close to at least one for over 25 years. the purely mission that disturbed me develop into at the same time as the close by Bikie gang had funerals and the position develop into swarming with bikies and law enforcement officials. It made it truly confusing to get out of the line.

Red geraniums are good for protection. Plant them near your your door and windows. Also, try smudging your home with sage and asking whichever God you pray to, to bless and protect your home and to banish any unwanted spirits.
Brightest Blessings

Why drive them away? Try to learn as much about them, and the fear will eventually go away. The living are to be feared more.
