Start by tidying up your house and take some time to collect the required materials for the ceremony. Take your time and start from the beginning until you return to where you started. The steps are as follows:
- Light the end of a smudge stick or bundle of sage and wave it over your head in a circular motion. A feather can also serve to spread the mist.
- While waving the smudge stick, stroll around your house, starting at the front door. Hold the fireproof receptacle underneath the smudge as you go.
- As you move, say or think of your blessings or intentions for protection and guidance.
- After completing each room, put out the smudge stick in the boll of sand.
- In addition, crystals for protection can be added to spaces, especially in the entrance area.
