PREPARING THE WHITE SAGE FOR USE
Step-by-step, on how to utilize a wand or stick of sage:
Rule no. 1: once the sage is lit, do not stop it from burning. The spirit of the sage knows just how much to burn. When the bad ions have been neutralized, it will cease burning on its own. Thick, rolling white smoke means the place or person has a lot of positive ions or negativity around them and it needs this thicker smoke to deal with it.

Under no circumstances should you to put it under water to douse the smoke or to stop it from burning.

1. Always use a heat proof bowl to put the sage in, after it has been ignited.
2. Hold the sage in your master hand. Light the sage with a match at the very tips of the leaves on top of the wand. Once they start to burn, blow them out quickly and the stick will smoke either thinly or thickly. The effect comes from the smoke, not the flame.
3. Place the smoking top of the wand of sage deep down inside the bowl and steady the rest of it, on the stick portion at the other end, with your other hand.
4. Take a fan or a small piece of cardboard and start in one corner of your room, and gently waft the smoke after it clears the bowl, from the floor, up, toward the ceiling.
5. Do not open doors or windows or turn-on a fan on when you 'smudge' yourself, a room or your house lest the amber fly onto you.
