Desert Sage (Artemisia tridentata) is indeed prized for its aromatic qualities, which are often described as earthy and slightly medicinal. The smoke from burning Desert Sage is believed to help cleanse spaces of negative energy, promote healing, and create a peaceful environment.
In Native American traditions, the practice of smudging with Desert Sage is a sacred ritual used to prepare for ceremonies, enhance meditation, and invite positive energy. The process typically involves lighting the dried sage, allowing it to smolder, and then wafting the smoke around oneself, others, or a space.
