Psychic answers; what is the purpose of sage?

 

Have you ever found yourself wondering what the purpose of sage is for a psychic medium, advisor or spiritual coach? Or wondering why they always seem to need to burn it?

Sage is a great way to clear the energy within your home or space, especially if you are conducting any sort of spiritual work throughout the day!

Many years back we had multiple maintenance workers, managers, a landlord and the landlord's assistant, and even a flooring company come into our home in a matter of hours, it was busy! To add injury to insult, we also had multiple amazon packages being dropped off at the same time, and it was bustling with energy to the extent where at the end of it all when we finally had a moment of quiet and peace, we all felt very on edge and very uncomfortable energetically.  Something just felt "off", we couldn't quite figure out what it was aside from the massive amount of energetic activity and people coming and going but also different items coming into our home that were touched by other people. This is not to say that they have bad energy but whatever they were going through throughout the day really just followed them and with that followed them into our home! This is why we encourage people when they are saging to do it after packages are delivered, after maintenance workers and those that are helping you come into your home, have left. This is again absolutely not a hit at anybody for their energy or  what they might be going through, or what they might be feeling, but it is such a strong force that can easily take over a space and can ruin a feeling of peace and a feeling of balance, especially if you don't know where it's coming from.

There is a tendency to really pick up and to bring on and to bring into your space a lot of energy from outside sources,  for example if you think about packages that are delivered, people who come in and out of your home or your work environment, or even people that happen to just be in passing who are coming into conduct work within your space -  they all carry energy that can very well end up sticking so to speak in your home or space. 

Taking a bit of time out from your day to pray over your home and space and with that utilizing sage, can allow you the opportunity to really clear the space and clear the energy, but also to revitalize that energy and come back to a place of balance.  It is important to know that burning sage is not the only method in terms of clearing the energy or air of a space that you feel may be  heavy from someone else's energy, you can definitely use incense and other scents to try to clear the space itself, but the intention behind the sage and really taking that time to smudge and to clear the air itself goes a long way.   

It is recommended that if the space is quite heavy with other individuals energy or something that's heavy that is causing you to feel uncomfortable, anxiety-ridden, or uneasy, that you definitely burn enough sage to create quite a bit of  smoke and with that going from corner to corner of the space itself, so think about all the nooks and crannies of the apartment, the home, the  office space, things of that nature. It is also encouraged that you definitely smudge more heavily around windows and doors, as that is an opening and in a sense a gateway for energy to come through.  We greatly encourage that if you are saging your home or office space that you are putting in the time to pray over what you are doing in the moment of, one of the things that we choose to do when we sage is to invite God and Jesus's presence into this space as we are saging.  

For example you can very well speak out loud and affirmation such as:

"Dear lord bless the space, protect those that come in and out, remove any negative energy, remove any harm, keep the space clean and clear,” or even “ Lord Jesus, we invite you into the space, please let your presence be known.” 

You can say these things or whatever feels right and in alignment with your desire to clear the space as you are walking around and saging.  It is important to know that in modern spirituality and with the way the psychic community has unfolded, it is firmly believed that doing this practice, specifically saging and smudging a space but also incorporating a different elements such as white feathers, and sea salt, is effective as it pertains to keeping negative energy out.  However, if you do not have any other means aside from sage, that is more than enough to change the energy of your space.  The beauty of it besides the smell and how compact is sage bunch is, is that you can sage actively throughout the day, you can even sage a particular person or element within your home or space that you find to be a little bit more heavier energetically, and you can even sage those fur babies that live within your home too, as they tend to pick up energy as well. 

As long as your intention as you are saging is positive and is coming from a position of trying to clear the air and to invite a higher presence in it, specifically Jesus, if not source, you are definitely in good hands!
