There are many different types of incense to choose from for cleansing purposes, but a multi-purpose option may be the most versatile. For example, a blend of Frankincense and Palo Santo is an excellent all-purpose choice. Both have been used for millennia in shamanic ceremonies to cleanse the mind. They also contain a powerful aromatherapy fragrance, so you can burn them in different rooms at different times of the day.
When choosing incense, be sure to choose a scent that resonates with you and your space. Cedar can be overwhelming, so you may want to use it sparingly at first to determine whether you will be able to handle the scent. Cedar is known for boosting personal energy and reducing the likelihood of nightmares, but the scent can be overpowering. Another good choice for cleansing is rosemary, which is an excellent scent and is available in oils, smudge, and incense.
Burning incense is an excellent way to cleanse a space. You can use it to purify individual objects, such as candles, mirrors, and crystals. Pass it over each object, clockwise, until the object has been cleansed. It is important to have a specific intention in mind when burning incense for cleansing, and chanting a prayer or mantra while you burn it will speed up the process.
Other types of incense are beneficial for cleaning crystals. You can burn a single incense stick in a sanctified room, but you do not necessarily need the entire stick to cleanse one crystal. If you’re cleansing your home, make sure you burn at least one incense stick in each room. If you’re burning it in more than one room, you’ll end up discharging more energy than you intended!
Burning incense for cleansing is a good idea all year round, whether you want to cleanse your house or a specific area. The smell it gives off can dispel bad energies and help you live in a happier and more harmonious space. Burning incense is also an excellent way to replace the smell of stale air and replace it with positive energy. Using incense to cleanse is a wonderful way to get rid of unwanted energy in your house and work area.
You can choose to use a mixture of frankincense and benzoin. This combination can help you achieve spiritual clarity and attract higher astral realms. It can also be used in fumigations. A mixture of four teaspoons of each of these incenses and a quarter of a teaspoon of hot charcoal can help you to create the perfect incense blend. And if you’d like to be a bit more adventurous, try burning dragon’s blood incense.
For a cleansing incense blend, sage is a great choice. Sage smoke is one of the most powerful cleansing incenses you can burn, as it acts as a powerful binder for negative energy. It also increases positivity. Sandalwood is also an excellent choice and is commonly found throughout the Middle East. Its aroma is deeply spiritual and can raise the spirituality of a place. If you’re trying to decide which one to burn, it’s a good idea to purchase one that contains sandalwood.
