Witte Salie smudge sticks
Smudge (literally: smoldering fire) bundles are completely natural, ceremonial incense, which were and are burned by the original Indian peoples in America during rituals and ceremonies, for example during sweat lodge ceremonies. Healers, energetic therapists and body workers are increasingly discovering the beneficial effect of this herb. Bunches of smudge are used all over the world to reconnect with the power of Mother Nature. The use of smoldering plants and resin may have originated from campfires in prehistoric times, in caves and camps. The ceremony of cleansing people, places and objects with smoke is still in vogue today. Not only useful to drive away pesky flying insects; the smoke of was also used to provide protection against disruptive spirits and ghosts.
To apply this protective and cleansing effect, during healing ceremonies the leaves or resins were heated to make smoke, which was then brushed over the person or object, often with large feather fans, purifying it of negative influences. Living areas were also cleaned in the same way.
White Sage is burned during ceremonies to drive away evil spirits, negative thoughts or disruptive influences. The leaves are famous for their special smell, and they are used as a natural defense against moths (in clothing) or mosquitoes (in a room). White Sage can be used in countless ways. The American Indians in Central America cover the floor of their sweat lodges with it. They also breathe in through a small bunch of sage and sometimes they rub it over their bodies when they are in the sweat lodge. White Sage makes the evil spirits sick, they say. They are driven away with it, when it is burned. If not with the good spirits; they don't go away because of the smoke. Good spirits, on the contrary, love white sage.
