For centuries, cedar has been revered in indigenous traditions for its powerful cleansing and protective properties. When burned, cedar releases a purifying smoke that clears negative energy from spaces, people, and objects.
It is often used in ceremonies to invite healing, protection, and renewal. The rich, earthy aroma carries the essence of groundedness, creating a sacred space for spiritual work.
Cedar smoke not only cleanses energetically but also has antimicrobial properties that purify the air.
This sacred medicine is an ally in removing stagnation, encouraging a return to balance and harmony in your environment and within yourself.
Our ceremonial cedar powder is wild harvested in the same mountains that are home to the Four Visions Warehouse & Operations. We share this medicine of the lands that carry our prayers with all our love and respect.
As A Smudging Agent:Using a recipient such as a copaleiro or cauldron, place a generous pinch of ground powder upon a burning charcoal to let the smoke burn. Smudge your entire home, office, car, or sacred space. You can use feathers or a bundle of fresh herbs to disperse the smoke, bringing blessings and offering prayers.
