Space Clearing with Essential Oils: The Background of Smudge in Spray
by Margaret Ann Lembo, Aromatherapist
It was around 1995 when the idea of Smudge in Spray came to me. At that time, I would open each class or event with a clearing and prayer using my blend, Margaret’s Sacred Smudge Blend. It’s a wonderful blend of herbs, powders, and resins that requires burning it using a charcoal disc. While Margaret’s Sacred Smudge Blend is potent and effective for removing negative energy and replacing it with blessings, it is a very smoky experience. The attendees of the events didn’t like the smoke, nor did my lungs!
They say necessity is the mother of invention; in this case, it was true. I had just been certified as an aromatherapist when the formula—a proprietary blend of medical-grade oils—came to me. Most of the formulas for the over 65 blends in my line came to me through Divine inspiration. I heard the ingredients in my consciousness and created Smudge in Spray. In addition to seven medical-grade essential oils, Smudge in Spray has Holy Waters and Sacred Site essences.
The Holy Water and Sacred Sites essences included in this blend are essential to making the formula effective. On another note, when I was growing up, my mother put Holy Water on me for different reasons and on various occasions. Now, I am paying that blessing forward using the Holy Water I’ve collected on my travels around the world. When I started collecting Holy Water, I had no reason other than wanting them available for personal use. When facilitating Sacred Sites tours, I made a point to collect or create sacred water at the site.
The Waters in this blend are Chalice Well Water, Spring from Mother Mary’s home in Anatolia, Turkey; St. Germain in France; St. Anne’s Cathedral in Quebec; and many more.
Smudge in Spray continues to be our number one bestseller. It is used by nurses, police officers, office workers, and everyone in between to clear out negative energy and strife. This herbaceous, space clearing blend is available in 3 sizes, 2 oz spray, 4 oz spray, and an 8 oz refill.
Remember this: “The real purpose of smudging originates from the part of you that remembers your true nature, which is calm, peaceful, and happy. Smudging isn’t simply the removal of negativity; more importantly, it is the remembrance of love, kindness, compassion, and true happiness. Remember your magnificence! Connect with the wisdom of your ultimate nature. Find inner strength, cultivate self-confidence, and serve others with love and joy. Know that your existence is truly meaningful!” ~excerpt from my eBook, All About Smudging.
