Manifesting Smudge Sticks

Manifesting Smudge Sticks

£15.00Price
A gentle yet powerful and effective botanical wand or smudge stick for ritual and ceremonial manifestation work, calling on The Divine, The Sun and The Earth, for loving creation.
 
When working with this sacred tool, be specific on what you wish to create, what you intend to manifest. It is offering its service to you as a working partner and trusting you to direct you both toward what you wish to create. 
 
These were harvested and bound at Summer Solstice and are filled with the active energy of the Sun, reflected in its binding with golden thread, balanced with deeply feminine aspects of Lady's Mantle, Bee Balm and the ever generous Yarrow.
 
There is also Manifesting Botanical Wands available. These are longer and thinner and can be used as energy and intention direction tools, aligning purpose with the magickal qualities of the herbs.
 
Organically and shamanically grown, harvested and ceremonially bound with 100% Egyptian cotton gold thread, reverence and respect for the plant, the land, your ceremonies and you.
 
Magickal uses and folklore
Lady's Mantle - a common herb in clinical herbal medicine, used for treating ailments of the reproductive system. In magick, it is also a love herb, the smoke calling the yearnings of the womb.
 
Yarrow - a herb of both protection and love. Yarrow is a rather unassuming herb which grows in lots of places, but it is a powerful cleanser and also draws similar vibrations of your intentions, setting down energetic callings of heart led desires for connection.
 
Bee's Balm/Lemon Balm - For 25 years I have used Lemon Balm in my ceremonies for clients who are trying to conceive and, I can tell you now, I encourage you to be specific about what you wish to manifest! It is a herb of creation, in all forms.

All of my botanical ceremonial craft tools and herbal folk medicines are sown, grown, harvested and crafted by me, with deep gratitude for their blessings and abundance. Their magickal craft partner must also have an open and loving heart with similar intentions. For more information, please visit VOLVA's values.

  • Smudge is used by lighting the unbound end and gently extinguishing any flame so that the herbs can smolder and smoke. Always hold a heatproof dish underneath to catch any falling loose herbs. Always place in a heatproof dish when smoldering. As these smudge sticks and botanical wands often contain flowers and flowerheads, these can burn faster and loosen a little quicker from the stick so it is essential to use a heatproof vessel to catch these.

    Ensure the smudge stick is completely extinguished when not in use - this can be done by gently pressing the lit end against the heatproof dish until you are absolutely sure the smudge stick is completely extinguished. Never leave a smoldering smudge stick unattended. 

    If using as a botanical wand, use as you would with any other kind of wand, aligning with the magick of the medicine of the plants outlined in the description. The botanical wands listed can also be used as smudge, whichever you prefer, although they do have more stems to ensure their structure and may burn slower or need additional relighting.

    Feathers and other smudging tools

    Smudging is often done with a ceremonial feather, to gently guide the smoke - this is especially useful when cleansing a room, item or person. A feather is not neccessary to smudge as the smoke will fill the area but many find it useful.

    Once you have smudged and cleansed what you wish, pass the feather through the smoke of the smudge with the intention of cleansing the feather, a good practice of energetic hygiene for your tools, ready for the next use. Smudge smoke can also be used to cleanse crystals, jewellery, talismen, tarot and oracle decks, altar items and other sacred tools by passing them through the smoke when your ceremonial work is done.

    Smudging is also a good practice to cleanse a room if there has been any disagreement, tension, arguments or heavy energies present. It is also an excellent cleanser in a sick room, or room used for health recovery - I have created a specific smudge for this here. It is also useful for when you have been in difficult situation or environment.
