On or around these dates are great times to smudge your home, office, car, sacred space, studios, crystals, yoga mats and more. You can smudge with Sage, Essential oils, Cedarwood, Palo Santo, or anything you are guided to use. It is okay if you don't have these items on hand or are not drawn to use them. You can simply clean these areas of dust, dirt, and clutter in order to help cleanse and clear the energy in the space. You can also use positive Intentions only. “I release anything that no longer serves this space and replace it with beautiful white light and love.” These times are also great for scheduling energy healing sessions and massages to help you re-energize and balance yourself. Remember that walking outside and spending time in nature is FREE and can also help rejuvenate your mind, body, and soul, during this time, or on a daily basis.
The photo above shows some of the tools to use for cleansing, clearing, blessing my environment, and sacred space. I sometimes use a white sage stick, shell to place sage in, feather to fan sage around the space and fluff up the energy. Once I am done, I use sand in a glass jar to extinguish the sage. You can also use water. Make sure you have something safe to put your sage out in, otherwise you might smoke your whole house up like I did the one time. If you make this mistake once, you will most likely never do it again.
Other times, I use an essential oil spray made of Sage, Cedarwood, or Palo Santo to smudge and clear spaces or anything else I am intuitively guided to use. The essential oils are more pleasant smelling than smoke for some. I don't always prefer to smudge with sage sticks before the company arrives. The smoke tends to linger and is not always pleasant for people with allergies and sensitive noses. Therefore, I make my own essential oils spray which works just as well and smells better. I use them before people come to my home, yoga studio, or office and after they leave too.
While smudging or clearing your space, keep an Intention in mind. For example, while smudging or cleaning, perhaps think to yourself or repeat "My intention is to cleanse and clear any old, stagnant, and negative energy from this space and fill it with positive energy like love, joy, and Divine white light." Whatever comes to mind will work. Do not overthink it.
Have fun with it and notice how you feel before and after you smudge. You may need to experiment a bit to find the best way and best smells that personally work for you.
Ask your Intuition;
“What’s the best way for me to smudge?”
“What should I use to smudge?”
Infinite Blessings,
