Smudging

I’ve been using a Native American tradition called smudging for many years. The technique is very simple and can be used to clear a person, animal, or space. You will need a match or lighter, a small bundle of herbs or a handful of loose leaves such as sage, rosemary, thyme, or cedar; and a bowl or saucer to catch any ashes. Herb bundles are available at herb stores, metaphysical shops, and online markets. I purchased some excellent white sage on Amazon.com.

Place the herbs in a bowl and light the leaves or bundle. Allow the flame to extinguish on its own, or blow it out after about fifteen seconds. Be aware that a glass or metal container will get hot even though the herbs are smoldering and not afire. A pottery mug with a handle works quite well for this purpose. Then use your hand or a feather wand to fan the smoke around the subject you want to clear. Begin with the top of the head and move to the feet, directing the smoke to cover the entire body of the person or animal. If you are clearing a room, direct the smoke into all corners, toward the ceiling, and the floor as you walk around your house or apartment in a counter-clockwise fashion. You may feel a sudden shift as an entity is expelled into the smoke. You can say a prayer to further your intent to remove any stagnant or unhealthy energy.

Empaths Pick Up Ghost Energy in Public Places

Ranoli is a holistic home inspector, home energy efficiency analyst, and real estate consultant whose mission is to help people heal their hearts and homes. She says that the thoughts and emotions of all who have ever been inside the house or walked on the land become part of the operating system for a property. Combine the earth energies with the emissions from electrical power lines, cell phone towers, and antennas and you have a very powerful program working either against you or for you.
Since empaths are sensitive to all types of energy, keeping your environment flowing with positive energy is very beneficial.

While writing my book, Whose Stuff Is This? ~ Finding Freedom from the Thoughts, Feelings, and Energy of Those Around You, I visited a restaurant in a section of downtown that has a lot of negative energy. As I parked my car in the public garage I suddenly felt vulnerable. I was walking down the sidewalk when I felt the presence of two malicious thugs behind me. The energy was so strong and repulsive, I turned around to see if someone was following me. I saw no one. I knew my guides were protecting me and I didn’t really feel afraid. I was simply aware. I thought no more about it as I met my husband for dinner.

On the way home, I had on the eyeglasses that I normally wear at my computer rather than the stronger prescription I need for nighttime driving. Plus, I experienced an unusual amount of traffic, my cell phone kept ringing, two people texted me, and one guy kept blowing his horn and flashing his lights at me. It wasn’t until I pulled off the interstate at my exit that I realized I had been driving without my headlights on.

Later that night when I went to bed, I felt angry and troubled. There had been a discrepancy about the bill and I thought I was still upset about that and my uneasy drive home. I let that energy go and felt better. However, I could not sleep because I kept sensing an unfamiliar presence. As I looked around my bedroom that moonlit night, I saw a dark cloud moving across the room. I didn’t feel concerned and only half believed there was really anything there. As I often do when I’m trying to fall asleep, I began meditating to help my body relax. My mind was racing, but I finally slept, only to awake at sunrise still feeling aggravated. I didn’t want to get up after only having five hours of sleep. So, I rolled over and dozed off.

When I got up an hour or so later I still felt perturbed. “What’s up with this?” I finally asked my guides. “You might want to do something about the entity you brought home last night.” It all made sense—the eerie presence near the parking garage, the crazy drive home, the aggravation. I immediately lit a sage bundle and smudged myself and my house and my car. That took care of the problem.

How to Smudge Yourself with Sage

For many years, Native Americans have used smudging to cleanse an area, a person, or auric field of detrimental energy. The most common herb to use for this purpose is white sage.

When my husband is home and I need a clearing, I’ll ask him to do the honors, but when I’m home alone, I smudge my own body with sage. In the video below I show you how I do this.You can smudge yourself quite easily by using a piece of cardboard to fan the smoke over your entire body. I use a smudge wand that I created from feathers of birds that I resonate with.





Our guides wait for us to ask for their help rather than infringing upon our free will. Simply ask that your entire body and aura be cleansed by the high, pure vibration of the smoking sage. I also call upon the Violet Flame of St. Germaine to transmute any detrimental energy released in my clearing session into a useful, positive, uplifting energy that will help you sense your oneness with Source, which is Love and Light.

Your intention is powerful and Source knows what you need. Therefore, there is no right or wrong way to smudge. It will be effective rather quickly.
