🔥 Sacred Smoke Ritual: Clear the Air, Clear the Spirit

Return to breath, fire, and ancestral clarity.

Purpose:

To cleanse emotional, energetic, and spiritual heaviness using sacred smoke and intention—calling in clarity, peace, and divine alignment.

You’ll Need:

• A small bundle of dried herbs or natural incense:
  Choose based on what grows near you or calls to your spirit—eucalyptus, rosemary, sage, lemongrass, bay leaves, or frankincense.

• A fireproof bowl or shell

• A lighter or match

• An open window or outdoor space

• Optional: ancestral cloth, spiritual object, or photograph

Steps:

1. Create Your Cleansing Space
   Open a window or step outside. Light your herb or incense and let the smoke rise gently. Hold it over your bowl or shell.

2. Ground Yourself With Intention
   Place one hand on your heart. Say softly:

   “I call in light. I release all that is heavy, unseen, or unspoken.
   May this smoke carry away what no longer serves me.”

3. Cleanse Your Body and Space
   Move the smoke slowly around your body—from feet to crown.
   If indoors, walk gently through the room, guiding the smoke into corners, doorways, and windows.

4. Offer the Smoke to Spirit
   Let the final trails of smoke rise freely. Say:

   “To the spirits of light, my ancestors, my guardians—thank you for your protection and presence.”

5. Sit in Stillness
   Allow the smoke to clear. Close your eyes. Listen.

Affirmation:

“I am cleansed. I am centered. I am walking in clarity and protection.”

🌿 Final Blessing

Smoke is not just cleansing—it is ancestral breath. It is memory. It is medicine.

When used with respect and presence, smoke becomes a prayer in motion. A way to speak without words. To grieve. To reclaim. To open the path ahead.

Let this ritual guide you when your spirit feels cluttered or unclear.
Let it be your return to center—through breath, through fire, through knowing.
