The NEW Crystal Clear Collection from Aloha Elixir

What is Smudging?

The practice of smudging has been utilized for centuries as a way to cleanse people, their articles, and their spaces of negative energy and lower vibration.  The tools of the trade for those who observe this ritual vary from one geographic region to another, however, the premise always remains the same; out with the lower energies, and in with the light.  As a Hawaiian brand, Aloha Elixir felt it was important to include traditional ceremonial elements, like ti, 'olena and pa'akai (Hawaiian salt), which have a long tradition of being used for consecration, cleansing, and protection. 'Olena carries the energy of the goddess Haumea, who is believed to represent the rising dawn that sheds its light upon the Earth to banish darkness. Ti has always been placed around homes and made into lei to impart blessings and protection. Hawaiian salt is used to remove negative energy and create a barrier to lower energies and entities from crossing into a ceremonial area. Local families will often wrap small handfuls of pa'akai in ti leaves and place them in the corners of the window to banish negativity from the home and prevent unwanted spirits from entering.

The fact is, when we interact with the world, as we all must, we can pick up energies or vibes that don't necessarily belong to us.  Crystals, like people can often collect and store lower energies, especially when they are being used as most are for some sort of healing.  As a standard practice, it's always advisable clean your crystals periodically to make sure that they remain free of these energies, and return them to their perfect, illuminated selves.  The same goes for people, and their places.  If you're new to this practice, or simply want a crystal clear understanding the hows and whys, keep reading.
