Smudgesticks and Sweetgrass should back back in a varied sizes and kinds by mid July and a full selection by mid August. Smudgesticks that have been lying around for months in a warehouse are NOT acceptable. I deeply apologize for the inconvenience, but I only want to provide the highest quality products for you here Bayou Witch Incense LLC.
p> If you're not familiar with it, smudging is the common name given to the Sacred Smoke Bowl Blessing, a powerful cleansing technique from the Native American tradition. Smudging calls on the spirits of sacred plants to drive away negative energies and put you back into a state of balance. It is the psychic equivalent of washing your hands before eating - and used as an essential preliminary to almost all Native American ceremonies.
I use smudging to cleanse myself (particularly if I've had a lousy day or have had to deal with difficult or unpleasant people). I use it as a prelude to all kinds of spiritual and magical work (it's like a kind of spiritual power shower). I use it to cleanse my home and office. I use it to mark the seasons and as part of other rituals. Basically I use it all over the place, at all kinds of time - it is totally adaptable and practical, a really user-friendly soulful tool.
Smudging is wonderful. Truly. Try it and you'll become a convert, I'm almost willing to bet. I love it because it's the simplest yet most incredibly effective form of space clearing available. It takes just five minutes to learn the basics and you're off. Obviously the more you do it, the more sophisticated you become, but it really is entry-level metaphysics, esoteric practice condensed into a few fool-proof actions. Most importantly it really works.
