Description

Smudge Stick Contains: Blue Sage (Grandmother Sage), Frankincense and Myrrh.Smudging is a ceremony used to clear away negative energies and to attract ones that are more positive. Native Americans have traditionally used many herbs for this purpose, each one having a different effect on the aura and inner being. You may burn a smudge stick directly from the end (extinguish carefully afterwards), or break off fragments to burn in a container such as a shell. When smudging, try to feel connected with a power greater than yourself. You may say prayers while using a feather, or simply the palm of your hand, to brush the smoke over you.Smudge sticks can be used for cleansing of the aura, for example before meditation or prayer, or they quite often these days used by body workers and therapists. They can also be used for cleansing a house or dwelling and are often used in this way in Feng Shui.They Say:Blue Sage or Grandmother Sage – Cleanse NegativityFrankincense – Sacred ConsecrationMyrrh – Sacred MeditationHow do I use my Smudge Stick?Firstly, light your smudge stick or loose leaves if you have chosen to break off fragments of your smudge stick into a container. Wait a moment, then blow out the flames. Try to fan the embers lightly to keep them smoldering (you may have to re-light your stick). You can then use the smoke to cleanse a person, property or spaces – you can use a shell or a heat resistant container to catch the ashes.SustainabilityAll Fluorescent Ranch products are harvested in traditional manners, in an ecological and respectful way.Size: Approximately 6.5 inches in length (170 cms)Country of Origin: Grand Mesa, ColoradoMore About SageSage, which cleanses and disperses negative energies, is sometimes called the ‘ear opener’ because it opens up our inner ears, allowing us to become more in tune with the sacredness of the world around us.

Each year a myrrh tree produces about 9lb/4kg of resin. Myrrh resin is dark brown in colour, a bit like caramel, and when burnt it produces an earthy, almost pine-like scent.
