Smudging one's home, house or other
buildings.
This is information about the Eastern
Woodland American Native people only, I do not write about other tribe’s ceremonies
unless I have been involved personally, and have their permission!
Some people believe that a Smudging
Ceremony should be done privately, for them this is correct. Some people
believe that they must only be smudged by a medicine person, for them this is
correct. The only important thing should be that you feel a cleansing of
anything evil.
Smudging your home or other property,
to take a smudge bowl home and smudge a building takes a lot of concentration
on the part of the person doing the smudging. The first thing that must be
talked about is that many people wish to smudge their home to help get rid of
spirits.
I can see that no one should want the Trickster (coyote)
running around your home causing trouble; however, remember good spirits are
around you also, these good spirits can and
will help you if you will let them.
will help you if you will let them.
We also have a third spirit around a home once in a
while.
This spirit is one that became a spirit because of
something very traumatic while in this life. This tragedy more than likely was
not the fault of that spirit, and the spirit is lost and confused. This spirit
only wishes to get help to cross on the good path. If one really wishes to do
smudging, you need to do it correctly.
If you find that your good spirit is the last one that I
spoke about you must go to a Traditional American Native tribe (please check
this very carefully for a correct smudging) you will not be sorry, this has and
should always be a blessing from Creator!
If you have the time please give this post a try?
Does smudging get rid of good spirits also?
