Mini Smudge Kit: Abalone Shell, Blue Sage Smudge Stick, Pack of Black Salt (for Protection) PLUS Smudging Guide! (Sage Bundle)

A super value sampler set! Use to cleanse your home or space and repel negative energy. This kit includes:

* Blue Sage Smudge - A close relation to White Sage but with a lighter 'fresher' smoke with floral overtones. Used to purify, cleanse negativity and hatred and open the way for spiritual healing and calmness and to pave the way for spiritual prosperity and health. In addition to its role in cleansing ceremony's this sage can be burnt for meditation and simply enjoyment! Many users of White Sage, who can find the scent of White Sage overpowering, prefer the more refreshing scent of Blue Sage.

* Small 2.5" - 3.5" Abalone shell (size and shape will vary). Abalone shells are a great accessory to aid your smudging ritual. The natural shape of the shell makes them super easy to hold and carry and the shells can take the heat of the burning sage.

* 1 ounce packet of Black Salt. Use to cleanse your space and repel negative energy or to carry around with you. Black salt for ritual use only - not for consumption.

* Basic directions for smudging

Please note that the shells and smudges are natural products so sizes, color, shape, etc will vary a little from item to item. All our abalone shells are super nice retail grade quality, not museum quality. They are real. The backs may have cuts, scrapes, holes, scars and blemishes. If you look at the posted pictures you will see the holes, which are common to 99.99% of these shells. Some of the edges may have an odd small chip. Some have a clear glaze or polished interior to reveal beautiful shades of greens, blues and silver and many other colors, many with some black accents. Black on the inside does not mean the shell has been used – it is a natural coloration in some shells. These shells are perfect for smudging ceremonies and can also burn resins, etc. They also can act as a storage home for your smudge sticks or as a beautiful natural home decoration, great for holding and displaying tumble stones, etc.

Smudging:

Smudging ceremonies using herbs, resins, Palo Santo Wood and incense are a custom of many indigenous cultures throughout the world, including North American indigenous peoples. Traditionally used in rituals, ceremonies and for spiritual purification, house blessings and spiritual cleansing. The smoke is believed by many to cleanse either a space or the body and aura, drive away negative energy and help reconnect with mother earth. Make sure the room where you are smudging is well ventilated. Open all the doors and windows. This is essential to not only drive out the negative energies (provide them with a route out) but also as a health precaution. Do not use if you suffer from Asthma or have respiratory issues. Do not use near infants or young children or anyone who is or may be pregnant. Do not leave burning smudge unattended! If you are just starting out with smudging don't be too worried about which instructions are 'correct' or 'work best'. Do what works best for you and 'feels right’ for you. Your 'intention' is a key component of the ritual so be clear on what you want to achieve and keep that in mind as you perform the ritual. At the end of the ceremony make sure the stick is extinguished. You can crush the end in sand or dirt, place the cover of the pot over it or simply place the stick in the open water container. Just be sure the stick is extinguished before it is left.
