Juniper Leaf Large Smudge Wand

8+ inches long

Unit size: 1 smudge wand

A smudge stick or smudge wand is a bundle of herbs, usually with a base of Sage, bound and tied with a string.  As practiced by generations of Native Americans, the pointed end of the smudge stick, while held over a bowl of sand, is ignited.  Blowing on the glowing surface will provide the fragrant "smoke" which is used for banishing (cleansing your sacred space), offering up "prayers", or to cast a circle with the smoke.  You may also "smudge" people and things, which has the affect of purifying and blessing them.  These various spiritual uses, and many others, are known generally as "smudging".

These Juniper Smudge Sticks are made of green Juniper Tips, and are around 8-9 inches long.

Juniper is very similar to Cedar, and usually has the same properties.  Like Cedar, Juniper has been used as an incense and smudge for fumigations in spiritual practices.  The berries of Juniper have medicinal value.  The aroma of Juniper leaf Tips is a bright cedar or pine-like aroma.
