๐ฟ Ethical Cleansing Alternatives๐ฟ
Hello darlings ๐ฅฐ
I wanted to talk about an important issue today: the use of palo santo and white sage for cleansing. While these plants have become popular in the spiritual community for their cleansing properties, it's important to remember that they have cultural significance for Indigenous people and may not be accessible or appropriate for everyone to use.
Additionally, both palo santo and white sage are endangered in the wild due to over-harvesting. So what are some alternatives for cleansing that are respectful to Indigenous cultures and environmentally friendly? Here are a few ideas:
๐ฟ Garden Sage: This is a great alternative to white sage, and it's easily accessible at most grocery stores. You can use it the same way you would use white sage for cleansing and smudging.
๐ฟ Cedar: Cedar is a sacred plant to many Indigenous cultures, and it's a great alternative to palo santo. You can burn cedar to cleanse a space or use it in a bundle for smudging.
๐ฟ Lavender: Lavender is a gentle yet effective plant for cleansing negative energy. You can use dried lavender in a bundle or as loose herbs, or even burn lavender-scented candles or incense.
๐ฟ Rosemary: Rosemary has cleansing properties and is often used in protection spells. You can use it in a bundle for smudging or sprinkle dried rosemary around your home.
Remember, the most important thing is to use alternatives that are respectful to Indigenous cultures and are environmentally sustainable. Also, be sure to research the plants you're using and make sure they're safe for burning.
๐ฟ Some tips for using these alternatives:
๐ฑ Before you begin, set your intention for cleansing and protection.
๐ฑ Burn the plant material over a fireproof surface like a metal bowl, shell, or cauldron.
๐ฑ Use a feather or your hand to waft the smoke around your space or yourself.
๐ฑ Be sure to extinguish the material safely when you're finished.
I hope this post has been helpful in finding more ethical and sustainable alternatives for cleansing. Remember to approach your practice with respect and reverence, and to always be mindful of the impact you're having on the environment and others.ย
Thank you @panthera-dei for bringing this important issue to my attention on my previous post detailing Protection Magickย which I have since edited, and for giving me a reason to research this topic further. As a community, let's make a conscious effort to practice sustainable and ethical witchcraft and respecting the cultural significance of practices like smudging.
If you have any questions or concerns, feel free to get in contact. Let's continue to support and uplift Indigenous cultures while practicing our craft ๐โจ

Poison, bane, toxin. These are all warning labels that tell us to stay away. But for those brave, or reckless enough to take a closer look, there is more to be discovered. What is it about poison that fascinates and seduces some, while terrifying and repelling others? These potent substances have been used for medicine, murder and mind-altering effects for millennia. Poison is a universal concept and humans have had many beliefs regarding how it worked and how to protect against it. Poison, as a metaphor has been used to describe things like love and knowledge, or toxic situations and people. There is much more to the nature of poison than it being deadly and to avoid it. It is part of our most ancient history and looking into the past about beliefs regarding poison, contagion and death give us clues to the unseen nature of this force. #thepoisonpathherbal #thepoisonpath #poisonpath #veneficium #pharmakeia #occultherbalism #toxicology #ethnobotany #ethnopharmacology #botanicaltoxins #poisonmagic #flyingointments #greenwitchcraft #nightshades #solanaceae #entheogens #ethnobotanicals #witchcraft https://www.instagram.com/p/Co95meLrWfn/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

The magick of dandelion
Native americans would boil dandelion in water to treat kidney disease, swelling, skin problems, heartburn, and digestive issues.ย
All parts of the dandelion are edible (preferably fresh). The roots are best harvested between June and August as they are the most bitter at this point, and the leaves can be harvested at any time throughout the season.ย
When collecting dandelions make sure you pick them from an area that you know hasnโt been sprayed or treated with any chemicals or pesticides.ย
Dandelion can be used to enhance psychic abilities. Dandelion root tea aids in divination and prophetic dreaming.
The best time to harvest the dandelion blossoms is in the afternoon when the flowers are fully open.ย
Magickal properties of dandelion: creativity, inspiration, sun magick, courage, bravery, wishes, divination, dispels negative energy, banishment, increases psychic abilities, prophetic dreams, growth, transformation.
