My sister-in-law was by our fixer upper this past weekend with her bundle of sage. Why you ask – to cleanse it.
Majority of you may know her. Kristin has been part of our family for nearly 30 years since her and my brother meet in junior high and she brings a different type of energy to our family. Kristin is the holistic and spiritual one on the Welsh side.
While Kristin was viewing our fixer upper, I made a comment that I was nervous of unknown spirits or bad mojo in our house. She looked at me while she was on her knees digging through stuff trying to find hidden treasures and said I got this. I’ll sage your house. Immediately, I looked at her, then at Jason and thought what the hell does that mean.
What is the purpose of burning sage? Today, people burn sage and other holy herbs to cleanse a space or environment of negative energy, to generate wisdom and clarity, and to promote healing.
Well, our fixer upper got “saged” this weekend. Kristin walked into each room expressing positive intentions for a happy healthy home. The smell reminded me of a catholic funeral mass. You know, that smoke thing they fling around while they sing some song. Obviously, I’m not a great catholic that I have no idea what the name or purpose of that procedure is. Maybe it is sage?!?
Now that we are moving into the design and decorating stage of our fixer upper, I’m hoping that Kristin’s sage will bring me more clarity and happy and positive intentions to our happy and healthy fixer upper 😉.
Thank you Kristin for bringing your hippie into our fixer upper! Love you😘
Love ya, Lisa
