I use White Sage and really like the smell but, yeah. I've smudged a few corporate client offices and felt bad about the lingering aroma. It's not for everyone.
My mom wasn't a very good hippie, clearly.
heh.
Buffy: Dancing with you is way better than trying to hook up with some good-looking guy. Xander: I think I liked it more when you were kicking me in my puffy groin.

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Occasionally I’m callous and strange
mmm, i love the smell of burning sage. my dad brings me sage from the desert around the Jemez res whenever he visits. i've never tried using it for cooking, tho. bet it would be divine.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Roommate burning smelly eye-watery stuff in the house when I'm not around and haven't said yes? Reason #43 for not having a roommate. Even in college I stayed in the single-room dorms.

I have some smudge sticks that are a combo of white sage, lavender, and cedar that I really like. But the smoke irritates Daniel's allergies so I make sure to do it when he is not around.

Brand is Triloka "Global Shaman Smudge". Label says all herbs for the smudge wands are "gathered with great care and respect for the environment by Native Americans". I got a package of three several years ago.

Always Anti-fascist!
Somehow, I can picture some Indians having a huge laugh over getting white people to buy their uncle's sacred lawn clippings.

Looks like Triloka offers a variety of blends for smudging and other purposes. Here's the website: [link]
