Sage is a wonderful herb that is not only good for
cooking and Alternative Medicines but has great Spiritual benefits. There
are so many types of Sage out there but we are only going to discuss 1 type…
the White Sage (Salvia Apiana) used for Smudge Sticks. There is also the Diviners
Sage (Salvia Divinorum) which is a Hallucinogenic… but we wont get into
that since our wonderful Government has made it illegal now in many states.
Welcome to the “Control System”.
Spiritual Cleansing
This process is called Smudging. In Smudging you will be using
the White Sage (Salvia Apiana) used for Smudge Sticks. Yes, it is White Sage
dried and bundled up with string wrapped around it to hold it all together.
This is a Ritual that you can do for many things. If you’re feeling
low on Energy and need Balance this is perfect for you or if you need to cleanse
and purify yourself of unwanted Spirits or bad and negative energy. The method
for this…. You can do this yourself or have someone help you. It is
better and easier to have someone help you. Light the Smudge Stick and get
it burning good. You don’t want it to have continuous fire. You want
it to burn slowly like charcoals on the grill. Then it will make quite a bit
of smoke. Stand up straight with your arms straight out like a crucifix. Have
your friend or partner hold the Smudge Stick and they should then simply make
circles around you with the smoke…. circling around your head around
your arms your legs… literally your whole body…. even the palms
of your hands and the bottom of your feet. Pretend like you are washing your
hands in the smoke…. Pretend like you are washing your whole body with
the smoke!
Some people like to have a large and wide feather and fan the smoke around
the person being cleansed. You can also take several feathers and group them
together to make a fan of sort. The choice is yours. While this is being done
to you… try to relax as you would when meditating, controlling your
breathing and visualizing yourself being filled with pure white light. When
you are done… place the Smudge Stick in something that will not catch
fire. I myself use a miniature Black Cauldron. I also place it with the burning
end down so that it continues to burn effectively. Believe it or not as I
am writing this I have a Smudge Stick burning right next to me to clear my
space of unwanted entities. Just remember that where there’s smoke…
there’s fire. So do not leave it unattended! One thing I need to inform
you of before I forget… burning this Sage smells like sweet Marijuana.
Why am I telling you this? Because other people who may later come into your
house with think your smoking Pot! Not that that’s a bad thing….
It just that you don’t want people to get the wrong idea about what
you are doing.
Cleansing and Purifying your Magickal Tools
Yes you should always cleanse and purify your Magickal Tools….
especially if one of your friends with their curiosity has handled them. This
will get rid of their energy that they may have put forth on them. You only
want to have your energy into your Magickal Tools. You should also use it
to cleanse and purify your Alter and your Crystals. Simply light the Smudge
Stick and hold it in one hand and take the Magickal Tool in the other hand.
Wave the Smudge Stick around the Tool cleansing and purifying it…. imagining
all the unwanted energy leaving it and pure white light entering it. If you’re
going to do this…. go ahead and do all your tools and crystals and such.
I know I have to do this because my Alter is out in the open and one of my
friends or family will come by and always touch or pick up something on my
Alter out of their own curiosity. You can’t blame them. If I was mainstream
thinking and went to someone's house and saw these things…. I would
want to touch them too. Curiosity killed the cat!
Cleansing and Purifying your House
This is perfect for getting rid of Foul Spirits or Negative Energy
in your house. This is good to do after using the Ouija Board or Conjuring
Spirits. Perhaps someone such as a neighbor or enemy whose energy you do not
like has come into your house. Use this method to get rid of that energy!
To cleanse and Purify your house you will definitely use the entire Smudge
Stick. You will be doing this on the inside of your house. Start at the front
door and take the stick and wave it as if you were drawing an imaginary line
around the shape of the door. Go in a clockwise motion. Then draw a straight
line across the wall till you come to the first window. Then draw the shape
of the window just like the door. Once again proceed to draw another straight
line till you come to the next window and do the same. Continue this process
around the whole house till you come back to the front door…. and don’t
forget closet doors too. Now some people are anal about how they do
this and they like to get every nook and cranny. I mean they get the base
boards and the edge where the wall meets the ceiling. They even do inside
the closets. This is all a matter of preference. You can make the call on
that yourself as to how much effort you wish to put into this Ritual. As you
are going around the house with your Smudge Stick…. Say out loud…..
“Any and all Spirits and Energies that are not of the Light be gone,
for you are not welcome here!” When you are done… place your Smudge
Stick in something that will not catch fire. As I mentioned before I use a
miniature Black Cauldron. I also place it with the burning end down so that
it continues to burn effectively.
