Botanical smudge kit includes: 1 charcoal tablet, 1 fan (6") made of real turkey feathers, cedar leaves, 3" sweet grass braid, 3" sage smudge stick, 3" abalone shell. (all measurements are approximated) The smoke from the sage bundle attaches itself to the negative energy of the area and cleanses it so that it becomes positive energy. The smoke of the burning cedar is said to attract the good spirits and eliminate negative energies. Sweet grass is often burned at the beginning of a prayer or ceremony to attract positive energies. the charcoal tablet is great for burning loose incense in the abalone shell. It can be broken into pieces so that you don't have to burn the whole disc at one time. Use the mini fan to keep the herbs smoldering while you smudge.
