The cedar tree has been revered for its spiritual significance for thousands of years. Its wood was used for the doors of sacred temples and burned in cleansing ceremonies for purification and protection. Cedar trees are very old, wise and powerful spirits. Cedar is often used to cleanse a home or apartment when first moving in, inviting unwanted spirits to leave and protecting a person, place or object from unwanted influences. The smoke of burning cedar is said to attract the good spirits and eliminate negative energies.

Smudging:

Smudging is traditionally used in rituals, ceremonies and for spiritual purification, house blessings, and energy cleansing. The smoke is believed by many to cleanse either a space or the body and aura, drive away negative energy and help reconnect with mother earth. Make sure the room where you are smudging is well ventilated with doors and windows open. This helps the negative energy to flow freely out while allowing the smoke to clear the air.

Carefully light one end using a small flame. Allow the end to burn for a few seconds, then quickly blow out the flame. Place the smoking stick on a fire-safe surface - e.g. metal or clay bowl, shell, crystal agate dish, etc. Keep a small dish or cup of water nearby for quick distinguishing.

Do not use it if you suffer from Asthma or have respiratory issues. Do not use near infants or young children or anyone who is pregnant. Do not leave burning smudge unattended and make sure the stick is extinguished after use.
