The
Hebrew house blessing is a blessing that the home in which you have entered will be blessed with health, wealth and everything that you wish for the people residing in the house. The wall hanging wishes for no sadness, sickness, conflict or anything negative to enter the home and that only positive vibes, luck and love enter the home and bless the people residing in it. It is customary
to give this as a gift to a family who has moved into a new home as a house warming gift, or in Hebrew, a chanukat habayit. According to the Talmud, the Oral Law, there is an opinion of thought that when you move homes, you change your luck in a positive way (meshane makom, meshane mazal, change of place, change of luck) and so the
Hebrew house blessing wishes the new tenants luck with their new house. The blessing can be intrinsically designed with different Judaic symbols decorating the blessing or they can simply yet elegantly designed, each person to their own design and taste. It is generally hung up by the entrance to the house for all to see when they walk into the house. The blessing gives the guest a feeling of warmth and of being welcomed into the house. The blessing for the home completes the home. There is also a blessing for businesses with a similar prayer. Whether you choose a blessing decorated with scenes from Jerusalem or pomegranates or the seven species, the Hebrew house blessing will have a special place in your home for years to come.
