Hello lovely people,
I’m a baby witch and started practicing a month ago. Finally my sage smudge stick arrived and I want to cleanse my home.
Do you have any tips I could/ should follow?
Of course I’ll open the windows (sadly I can’t open my apartment door, because then my neighbours would smell it).
Thanks a lot in advance
P.S.: I wish i could’ve done it at full moon, but the sage got lost in the Delivery Process and i’m In the “broom closet” and only can cleanse like this, when I’m home alone.
Hey
Fireproff bowl, walk in circles around the house, think happy, cleaning thoughts. Make sure you put it out when your done with it. You could break a tiny bit off to see how much it smells and how it burns. You could also get a sage spray (or make your own) which wouldn't attract so much attention. Also grab some sage and other herbs and put in a cotton bag under the bath tub taps for secret bathtime cleaning, or hang off shower. I have dabbled on and off for years, fell off the wichy wagon so I'm back to been a re-starter baby witch :)
Wow thanks for all this awesome tips 😍
Happy if finally made it to you! But definitely recommend leaving windows open since you can't have the door open. Also I start clock wise and walk about my house saging everything lol. Just make sure you thinking pure cleansing thoughts and that you intent is clear. I also like to sing happy spell songs (you can easily make one as well). I wish you the best of luck on your journey! Super excited for you :)
With the singing is a great idea. Thank you and I wish you also the best for your Journey
This is one I found on pinterest but it is by far my favorite to use for sage cleansing it's simple and i can repeat it as I go with out to much effort "Smoke of air and fire of Earth cleanse and bless this home and hearth drive away all harm and fear only good may enter here" I hope it works for you as well as it does for me
Thank you 😊 I’ll translate this into my mother language and maybe change it to rhyme. I’m stunned by all these fast replies
Depending on why you smudging your place. If you are more kicking something out appose to maintenance to keep the negative out, i would make salt lines to the entrances. If you want to hide it a little bit you would get string, glue, beads, so you can roll the string in the salt let it dry then put the beads on so it looks decorative then anything. You could also hang them and hand bells on the ends.
Good luck :)
The beads idea is great for a more long term solution 😍 thank you
