Cedar Smudge Stick

Cedar is the old protective smoke — drier and sharper than sage, traditionally burned when moving into a new space rather than cleaning up an old one.

How to use it: Light, let it catch, blow it out, and walk the threshold of every door. Open a window first.

• Approximately 3–4 in bundle
• Hand-tied — size and shape vary
• Burn over a shell or heatproof dish, never unattended
