This was quite a historical day for the state of Oklahoma, where in 1802 the first non-Indian settlement was established. It must have been interesting for the Native Americans to watch and see how their brother blessed and cleansed his new space as compared to the ancient ways of the indigenous.
Information from Indian archives advises that to cleanse or clear any space we should use some dried sage leaves. Put a few leaves of dried sage into any non-flammable container and light with a match. Allow the sage to burn for a few seconds before blowing the fire out.
Now, waft the smoke from the sage into all the corners of each room to be cleansed or just walk around the main floor of your space in a clockwise direction letting the smoke clear and cleanse the air as you walk a spiral to the center or the heart of the home.
This ancient ritual not only sends negative energies packing but will allow them to be accompanied by any energies left over from people who lived on the land before you, called in Feng Shui 'predecessor' energy. Get a fresh start and bring balance and harmony to your home by clearing it first. A wonderful way to begin anew.
