Why is ethical sourcing so important for White Sage?

Ethical sourcing is vital because White Sage is culturally significant to several Native American communities and has faced issues with over-harvesting and misuse. To honor its sacred ritual importance and support sustainable practices, our White Sage is exclusively harvested on Native land in California. And it is imported through a Canadian Indigenous-owned supplier. This approach ensures respect for the plant's roots and the traditions associated with its use.

Is smudging with White Sage cultural appropriation?

Smudging, when performed using White Sage, is a ritual practice deeply rooted in specific Indigenous traditions. We encourage all customers to approach the practice with the utmost respect, reverence, and intention. We provide White Sage to those who use it respectfully within their own spiritual practice, understand its history, and commit to honoring it as a sacred tool, not a trend. Acknowledge its origins and use it with sincere purpose

How do I properly light and use the White Sage Smudge Stick?

1. Preparation: Have a fire-safe vessel (like an Abalone Shell or ceramic dish) ready. 2. Ignition: Hold the smudge stick at a 45-degree angle and light the tip with a match or lighter. Let it burn for about 20 seconds. 3. Extinguish: Gently blow out the flame, allowing the stick to smolder and release sacred smoke. 4. Cleansing: Use the smoke to cleanse your space or aura. When finished, press the tip firmly into your fire-safe dish until the ember is fully extinguished.

How does this compare to other cleansing herbs like Palo Santo or Black Sage?

While all are used for energetic renewal, they have different energies: White Sage: Traditionally the most powerful for purification and clearing heavy, negative energy. Palo Santo: Used more for blessing, inviting positive energy, and creative inspiration after cleansing. Black Sage: Often used for dream work, astral projection, and connecting with spirit guides.
