Smudge Stick - Blue Sage 10 cm

Salvia Azurea, also known as blue sage, is a well-known and widely used product among indigenous people of Central America, also known as the Natives, especially in shamanism

It is part of the purification ceremonies where these spicy plants are smouldered and their holy smoke is released. It stimulates the gain of visions and expels negative energy as well as bad entities. Scientific research has even shown that 94% of the bacteria in the room have been broken down after burning this herb

So blue sage is a purification method that also changes your state of consciousness. It is made from the Artemisia tridentata plant, which grows on the coast of Mexico and California

Blue sage is distinguished from white sage by the smell that is released when you burn it. Sage has a sharp, very pungent smell, to be described as spicy. Not everyone experiences this smell as pleasant. It is therefore more functional than a pleasant home fragrance. Unlike white sage, the smell of blue sage is similar to lavender

Blue sage is also known as Grandmother sage. When the leaves are dry, they can be burned. This involves tied blue sage with a length of 10 cm. In this way it is easy to ignite. As soon as the top of the beam is lit you can wave it with a feather and spread the sacred smoke over objects, people and in all corners of a room

Blue Sage provides spiritual strength and is sometimes used in exorcism rituals to remove malevolent spirits and attract spiritual strength

Sage is a venerated healing herb in Native American medicine and ceremonial practices. It is believed to impart benevolent energy, and its scent is said to reduce stress and promote physical purity. Burning sage smoke is additionally believed to lift prayers to the divine, as well as rid spaces of unwanted spirits and create a sacred ambiance

Instructions for use:

Hold the smudge stick by one end and light the other with a lighter or match. Once the flames have gone out, the stick will smoulder. Gently wave the stick (or use a feather for a traditional approach) to disperse the smoke throughout the space, person, or objects. Place a heat-resistant dish (like an abalone shell, smudge pot, incense burner, or plate) under the smudge stick to catch the ashes. Be careful of any falling embers. The smudge stick can be extinguished in sand or water and be reused multiple times.

*Never leave burning smudge sticks unattended
