Burning a bunch of white sage has been an indigenous ritual for hundreds of years in different tribes and civilizations around the world. What is it for and what are its benefits?
-
Purification of negative energy. The smoke produced by burning sage purifies and cleanses the malas energies. You can use it in your home or in the space you want or you can also direct the smoke to your body and then direct it to those around you to cleanse our body of malas energies and low vibrations.
-
Spiritual connection. Sage has the power to deepen our spiritual connection. This can actually be scientifically proven as sage contains thujone, a mildly psychoactive substance that increases our intuition.
-
Improve your mood. Traditionally, sage smoke has been used to improve moods, reduce stress and prevent depression.
-
Cozy incense. The aroma produced by burning white sage is very cozy and warm. You can use it as incense or to eliminate unpleasant odors.
With a lighter light the end of the bundle where the leaves are (not the end of the stems). The leaves should be lit with fire initially and then simply burn slowly just like incense.
If you want to purify your home, walk around the different rooms with the bundle making sure to distribute the smoke well in each room and mentally repeating the intention you give to the sage smoke. Is it cleansing of negative energies? Or maybe you are looking for the sage to help you on your spiritual path?
