Pine Bundle Stick 4"

Pine Bundle Stick approx 4" long  Pine has a protective energy that benefits highly intuitive people. It helps create a filter and barrier against negative psychic energy and unwanted influences. Add pine to an aroma-energetic smudging mist for protection.  Pine supports the mind during times of adverse conditions. It protects and strengthens the mind and helps prevent you from succumbing to negativity that might arise around you at home, in the office, or in any part of everyday life.  Smudge any time you feel that negative thoughtforms, including your own, have gotten stuck in your energy field. You know you need to smudge or clear your space when chaos is present, arguments abound, anger presents itself, or general feelings of agitation and frustration exist. If an argument just occurred, clear your space. If you encountered an unpleasant situation, clear yourself. If your children are unruly and your spouse is cranky, clear your space.  How to Smudge You can use either a ready-made smudge bundle, make your own smudge bundle, or use loose herbs. Smokeless alternatives are also available and will be discussed a little later. To use loose herbs for smudging, you will need herb-burning charcoal discs as well as a dish to hold the burning herbs. Abalone shells are often used for this purpose, since they are sturdy and represent the element air. When a shell is used, the vibration of all four elements—earth, fire, air, and water—is present. (The dried herbs represent earth, the burning embers represent fire, and the smoke represents air.) When all four elements are working together, the cleansing effects are magnified."  ~Excerpted from All About Smudging, an eBook by Margaret Ann Lembo
