Smudge Spray
Kelli Armes, Herbalist
Supplies:
Eastern Red Cedar (Juniperus Virginiana)
Filtered water
Cedarwood (same species Juniper) essential oil (optional if
you are sensitive to scents)
Brandy or Vodka to preserve
Directions:
Ethically and thoughtfully harvest a small amount of Cedar limbs (very small
amount is needed and only with permission of the tree). If you do not have permission or do not do
this in a respectful manner, your smudge will not be effective.
Place material in large pot with filtered water and simmer
on low until water is reduced by half.
I like to say a prayer over the material during this
time.
Pour mixture into a large jar and preserve with same amount
of brandy or vodka.
Blow over the mixture 7 times.
A few drops of Cedarwood oil as you add your mixture to your
spray bottle. (I use 2 drops per bottle depending on the size you don’t want it
too strong)
Uses:
I use this when I cannot smudge (out in public, or if
someone in the house is sensitive to smoke at that time).
Keep in a small bottle and spray yourself when/if needed.
Cleanse yourself
Cleanse your area
Cleanse your motel room, etc.
Many uses for this!
