These house blessings are excellent for smudging your home. Use there tools to clear and bless the energy around you:

Pinion is gathered in the Taos mountains and produces the classic, sweet forest essence of Northern New Mexico. Its cleansing, comforting scent is said to be helpful for fertility, compassion, and purification. Folklore states that it was once used by the Navajo in war dances.

Cedar branches were traditionally brushed through the air during the House Blessing Ceremony of many Northwestern Native American nations. In the Pacific Northwest, people burned cedar for purification. Much like sage, it drives out negative energy, but with the added benefit of bringing in good influences. The spirit of cedar wood is considered to be ancient and full of wisdom.

Sage is a traditional choice for burning and smudging. Native American folklore considers sage to be one of the best herbal cleansers.
