Black Sage Smudge Bundle

Nearly everyone heard of or used White Sage, but lets take a deeper look at Black Sage. Black Sage (Salvia mellifera) is a much stronger herb than the White Sage. Black Sage is considered White Sage on steroids!

Black Sage is a small, highly aromatic, evergreen shrub of the genus Salvia native to California, and Baja California, Mexico. Some say it smells a little like mint!

Key Benefits of Black Sage:

Our Black Sage (Salvia mellifera) sourced responsibly in California and proven to neutralize negative vibrations, improve sleep, as well as alleviate anxiety and stress. When burned the smoke heals and brings one back into balance and cleanses the body and mind of negative spirits and impurities.

When burnt before bedtime, it aids in restful sleep and pleasant dreams. Black Sage is used for astral travel, shamanic journeying, and for protection during such excursions. It may intensify your efforts at visualization and vivify your dreams.

The tradition of Smudging:

Smudging finds its origin in the USA by the Native American tribes. They burned herbs such as white sage to cleanse themselves and their environment from negative energy. The believe is that negative energies (spirits) do not tolerate the smoke of these burning herbs. And that this acts as a purifying function that attracts positive energies or good spirits.

The Native Americans liked to use symbolism in their rituals. In this way they preferably let the four elements come together: water, earth, fire and air. They did this with a shell (water), earth (herbs), fire (burning of the herbs) and air (smoke).
