Salvia Blanca de California Atado 8 a 10 cm.
Cur moriatur homo cui Salvia crescit in horto? - what can a man die of who has sage in his garden? This sentence from a treatise of the Salernitana Medical School (12th-13th century) says it all about sage, a sacred plant.
The plant and its properties
Its scientific name is Salvia Apiana; it comes from the Latin salvare - to cure. It grows wild in the southwestern United States, mainly in California and northwestern Mexico. It is a recognized medicinal plant. Most of its properties are concentrated in the leaves, which absorb the sun's energy and produce a large amount of essential oils that aromatize the plant. They give off a very pleasant aroma that brings a sense of well-being. Scientific studies have revealed that both leaves and stems contain jaceosidin, a molecule known for its anti-inflammatory and antibacterial action.
A bit of history
In Celtic Europe, it was used by Druids to increase their wisdom and during their healing and protection rituals. In America, many Amerindian cultures of the West Coast of the USA purified body and spirit thanks to the great power of white sage; they burned leaves and the resulting white smoke served to bless and cleanse both people and objects.

Description
Cultivation
Our plants are harvested both in natural areas and in cultivated fields. Whatever their origin, harvesters are legally authorized to do so. The process is simple: they cut the branches and leave the roots to allow future harvests. Exports are controlled by the USDA (US Department of Agriculture), which certifies that all legal and environmental requirements are met.
Plant growth depends on climate and annual rainfall. The size of the bundles can therefore vary from one harvest to another: a difficult season and less abundant harvests lead to a smaller bundle size. In drought years, the concentration of essential oils is higher.
How to use
This purification ritual is a universal practice. It is said to promote mental clarity, joy and calm.
1. You need a bundle of dried sage tied with cotton, a feather or fan and a bowl to collect the ash that is heat resistant, such as an abalone shell.
2. Light the sage inside the bowl, preferably with a match. Blow to stoke the fire and let it burn out. Watch out for sparks!
3. Sahumar: bring the smoke closer to the people participating in the ritual. With the fan, direct it to the head, arms, legs, back...
4. Cleansing: go around the space to be purified with the bowl, dispersing the smoke with the feather or fan. Make it go where your intuition guides you.
Remember that the intention is the basis of any incense: if your heart is pure and your desire is noble, you will enhance its effects.
Ventilate after use. Do not inhale the smoke directly.
