The Sage Cottage creates strong tools for correcting the energy, and energy is everything! You can Make Things Happen, using Thought Energy! Think on that!

We are thinking about What's New, and What's On The Way

Last night we posted about Donate & Save, a program we offer to cut costs for clients needing a discount to purchase their single wand and bulk multi pack bundles. To help our gardens grow, and receive our products and bonus orgonite, click on our homepage's button for Donate & Save. Here's the post all about it:  www.thesagecottage.com/gardening-and-spirituality/donate-to-the-sage-cottage-gardens-keep-plants-growing-all-seasons-rain-or-shine-smudge-the-planet

Our seasonal fall - winter outdoor gardens are limited at this time, but the cold frames are supporting a good variety of healthy essentials. Indoor gardens are doing well and we survived a few challenges nicely. All is well., we have the botanicals desired most by clients.

In the future we may expand but for now we are happy with our botanicals and we can keep up with orders, as long as ship time estimates are working out well for clients, and for our shop. At this time single wand purchases ship right away with about a one to three day wait for bundles to be set to wrap and ship. Five and ten wands orders take one to two weeks to ship. Orders over thirty wands take about three week or slightly longer. A very large order requires four weeks for completion when the shop is busy.

Fall through Februrary are very active times here, with more orders than cold weather can easily support good garden growth for.  Growing takes time. We allow more time for our plants to produce in a safe and happy way, without stress on them for bigger blooms or quicker growth. Our wands are worth the wait. As I shared with a client yesterday, we offer the only intuitive smudge bundling service featuring Vibrational Transfer and spirit vortex healing for aura work. We also ship orgonite with our orders. That's a big value for your buck!

Subscriptions soon to be available! Clients will have the option of selecting monthly wands, just as offered in our Donate & Save program. Same selection, same discount. We appreciate the relationships grown thanks to our Etsy shop community, but wish to move into a new method of connecting with clients, through PayPal and mail order requests. All Donate & Save program offers and future subscriptions will be available by using PayPal to purchase online, or by sending a handwritten request to our post office box with cash, cashier's check, or money order. By using a post office box to receive requests, clients may include receipt from recipient for reassurance that their transaction is safe. Check USPS for details on requesting receipts when mail is received. We check our post office box twice weekly.

Freedom Wands, getting closer every day. Soon I will make time to bundle pre-made smudge wands to offer on Etsy, and perhaps in a new Weebly shop.

Hopes and dreams...We're always thinking on creating more Tri-Sate relationships, opening an NJ or PA shop or booth, creating larger indoor gardens, gathering new and exciting crystals, and we most often think about hosting educational events here at the cottage. We aim to follow the signs to best help clients Smudge The Planet!

Kits! Yes, they're coming. Maybe not soon, but in our minds we imagine how they will come to be. Kits may include crystal grid making stone sets, orgonite, obolix, short reads on correcting the energy and spiritual protection/health, Rebel Tea, bath tea, Freedom Wands, our famous loose incense, wormwood herb and blooms, SUPER Catnip, hair jewelry featuring raw crystals to enhance and heal the magical crown chakra, stretchy stone bracelets to wear while doing your energy work, painted shungite for fixing the office desktop vibe, Eastonite, and cloud busters. We're even thinking on Rife machines. How's that for a bright future! See, no matter the challenge there is ALWAYS a solution!

Here's what clients have ordered. How fun is it to check for your own wands' portraits?

Here's some info from our Etsy shop FAQs:

Wholesale availability?We bundle in small batches, offering 5, 10 and 15 wand sets for resale. 4", 5" and 6" wands are available with optional crystal, in two styles: Popular Wands or Intuitive Requests. Popular Wands are best sellers. Intuitive wands are based on clients' energetic needs. Both are completed in floral styles, with bright colors and many flowers. All receive Spiritual Vortex Healing Energy (spirit vortex energy work) and Vibrational Transfer.

Why are The Sage Cottage's products are so magnificent? Our botanicals are happy, and grown here with love. Our gardens are charged with hand gathered crystals to promote prosperity. We practice Vibrational Transfer on everything that we create. Using ancient and magical tones to raise spiritual frequencies helps to inspire and empower users, who often feel more positive and better able to attract prosperity, luck and blessings. (✿◠‿◠)


Why buy The Sage Cottage's authentic, beautiful and unique smudge wands? Buy our authentic handcrafted smudge to receive true value for your buck. We're the first to bind crystals to smudge wand bundles. We grow all of our own natural botanicals, we bundle the herbs while setting intentions, we properly bind crystals we gather by hand, then we practice Vibrational Transfer. Your crystal will be forever charged. You will feel the power in your hand. Healer made smudge is magical and it changes lives. We specialize in clearing negativity. Exorcisms are our jam and we've been doing this for years, not weeks or months. We also use botanicals which are potent, from our own serene crystal charged gardens. The Sage Cottage bundles smell divine because we care (✿◠‿◠)

What's in your smudge wand bundles? We bundle many blends, most which feature our own favorites.

Our botanicals:

White pine, cedar, Tibetan sage, yarrow, meadowsweet, hibiscus, calendula, rose, verbena, white willow bark, lemongrass, patchouli, lavender, chamomile, sweetgrass, white sage, larkspur, Indian sage, knotweed, star anise, angelica, spikenard blooms, bay leaf, balsam fir, lemon balm, lime balm and rosemary ✿

Every smudge wand ships with instructions for use, and a tag detailing botanicals bundled (and mineral ID) so please be sure to flip your tag to read the list (✿◠‿◠)

How to burn smudge wands? Light your wand and gently blow on the lit tip. If it does not heavily smoke try lighting it using a candle flame instead of a lighter. Select a plate or bowl or shell to hold under the burning wand. Hold the wand over your safe plate or bowl or shell while smudging, to prevent burning embers from falling. Moving the wand will encourage further burning. Allow the wand's smoke to fill any area you wish to spiritually cleanse and bless. If you would like it to burn all at once during yoga or meditation simply do not put it out. If you only need to smudge rooms, people, pets or objects to banish negativity and to bless, use the wand as needed. To put it out push the burning tip into a safe plate or bowl or shell until it stops smoking.

Want to know more about how we create Sage Smudge Wands? Here's an article all about it: http://www.thesagecottage.com/gardening-and-spirituality/on-the-day-your-sage-smudge-wand-was-born (✿◠‿◠)


Do Popular Wands and favorite seasonal blends receive spirit vortex energy healing? Yes! Each wand is unique and is made as orders are received, using spiritual vortex information, which involves meditative process. We connect with the wand users' needs to promote healing and prosperity, even for Popular Wand orders (✿◠‿◠)

Do buyers need to provide any information prior to an Intuitive Request order? No, no information is needed. Once an order is placed our wand maker will begin to receive what is known as a spiritual download, and this energetic information serves as the initial connection between wand maker and the person or persons who will make use of the smudge wands' healing energy. During the bundling process meditation and a trance like state is used to further the connection between our wand maker and Source, and between any helpful and organic spirits or guides who present themselves to work on the project. Our wand maker will hear information, see scenes play out, and will know what key issues to focus on while bundling (✿◠‿◠)

Have a most perfect day and beautiful week!

All our love,
From your wand maker, and The Sage Cottage 💗

Life is busy, and empaths are often pulled in many directions. We are natural problem solvers, and we take great pride in accomplishing projects.

The day may be well planned but surely many additional requests will be made of our time. As the minutes pass, the To Do List grows. We tend to bite off more than we can chew, then we self loathe for not solving the world’s problems single-handed. If only the days were a bit longer!

When feeling pulled in so many directions that you don’t know where to begin, step out of it. Walk away from it. Get outdoors. If that is not possible, find yourself a safe place where you can calmly close your eyes and focus on the following meditation.

Here’s how to practice self healing in a pinch:

Grab some crystals. You are probably wearing your favorites right now! Bracelets and necklaces are ideal for this exercise. Don’t have access to crystals at the moment? No problem, you can substitute with tiny stones, leaves, or anything that you can get your hands on which feels good to the touch. Think high vibrating items of nature, nothing man-made.

Venture outdoors. Sit in a comfortable place. Sunlight is divine, if you can catch some rays please do so. Can’t go outside? You’ll know best where you can receive the peace and quiet necessary.

Once you are seated, close your eyes and breathe. Your thoughts may still be racing. Try to release them. Know that once you are centered that To Do List will be handled. This is your time to connect with the universe.

The earth loves you dearly. Feel its pull on your body, the gentle connection between you and the ground. You may even see it in your mind’s eye. You can also feel the earth’s pull indoors, just set the intention to accept its healing energy.

Take your crystals or natural objects in your hands. One by one hold an item and think only of it. Use your mind to listen for messages from the object. Really feel it with your fingers and watch the images sent to you from the object. These psychic impressions are the core of this quick self healing meditation, as they break the chaotic trance of your day and replace it with a form of Earthing (connecting with “the mother energy” which spiritually cleanses empaths).

Here is an example of a day during which deep spiritual cleansing and healing was desired. (From a post written in 2017 while I was still using "smart" devices and social media. I've since released myself from those sorts of soul traps.) Earlier I had a busy day planned, but as usual my To Do List became overwhelming. Social concerns “slimed” me, that super heavy feeling of other people’s drama. Eeesh! Adding stress to the mix, political and environmental issues of negative effect weighed on my heart. Time to unplug! I logged out of my business site although intriguing emails and exciting incoming orders tempted me to alter my plans. I said See Ya to Facebook and Pinterest where I had gotten in too deep. I accepted the fact that yoga and the two CDs for guided meditations which I intended to complete would have to wait until this evening. Maybe I wouldn’t even get to all of that today. Same goes for chores, time to step away and get outdoors.

I sat on a bench in the sun. My thoughts continued to plaque me but one by one I did release them. I felt the earth under my feet and her delicate pull of gravity on my being. This connection slowly set things right. The sun washed away all of my concerns. I gained strength and confidence. I knew all was well in my world.

I make jewelry, just simple bracelets and necklaces made of crystal beads. Today I wore moonstone, kyanite, citrine, fluorite, chalcedony, amethyst and aragonite. Lucky me! Eyes closed, I began my meditation. One by one I held a bead between my fingers and waited for messages. Each crystal sent me images, and some had things to say. The aragonite showed me the sea and seashells. Kyanite demonstrated a high stone wall around me, protecting my aura from the nonsense happening in today’s ridiculous world. Citrine shared images of sunlight and a fantastic sensation of deep, satisfying joy. Amethyst whispered its own name. The experience was fascinating! I became instantly rejuvenated, ready to try again, but from a balanced and centered state of mind.

No longer reeling from world events, customer requests, family obligations or the weight of household chores, I am now willing to get started on that To Do List with fresh eyes and a blissful heart!

All our love,
From your wand maker, and The Sage Cottage 💗

The Sage Cottage grows all natural botanicals with great care and love. Our crystal-charged gardens and our products change with the seasons.

Our Floral Sage Smudge Wands are custom made just for you!  We are known for our floral bouquet bundles. Photos of recent clients' orders are available in this blog, to demonstrate our general style of bundling, and to show off our gardens' seasonal herbs and blooms. Check out our photo collections to view the general colors and styles of the season. In example, spring through summer is always a time of bright blooms. Fall and winter blooms will be of a different nature. Most recent orders may be seen in our Etsy shop listings, in blog posts, and on social media. You may even search the web, or view our Etsy shop reviews for fun photos shared by clients!

Each bundle is unique and no two Sage Smudge Wands are alike. Every wand is a unique artistic expression reflecting the wand users who will make use of its healing chi. The Sage Cottage's Intuitive Order Smudge Bundles are deeply focused on clients' energetic needs, completed in floral styles, with bright colors and many flowers. All wands receive Spiritual Vortex Healing Energy (Spirit Vortex Energy Work) and Vibrational Transfer. Vibrational Transfer is practiced on all of our energy improving  products to promote power during use for Metaphysical or Energy Work. Using ancient and magical tones to raise spiritual frequencies helps to inspire and empower users, who often feel more positive and better able to attract prosperity, luck and blessings. Intense energy work, meditation, and connection with Source is included in our process. We provide spirit vortex energy healing with each and every order.

To learn more about the vortex data and spiritual connections used during bundling, please meditate on the completed wand.  At times simply looking at it, and "listening" to it, will allow for deeper understandings, and divine healing!

We bundle many blends, most which feature our own favorites. Our most commonly bundled botanicals: White pine, sacred cedar, Tibetan sage, yarrow, meadowsweet, hibiscus, calendula, rose, verbena, white willow bark, lemongrass, patchouli, lavender, chamomile, sweetgrass, white sage, larkspur, Indian sage, knotweed, star anise, angelica, spikenard blooms, bay leaf, balsam fir, lemon balm, lime balm, and rosemary.

Single wand orders are our shop's priority (due to the sensitive nature of the clients' personal needs) and ship most quickly. We suggest that anyone in a hurry please purchase single wands, as our bulk packs take more time to bundle due to spirit vortex energy work. Multi pack orders of thirty wands or less take about ten days or less to complete and to dry for shipping. Large orders take about two to four weeks for completion.

We use Priority Mail via USPS. Tracking is provided at time of shipment. All smudge wand orders ship in a box and include a brief guide to our most commonly used botanicals' metaphysical properties, and bundle burning instructions. Be sure to flip your tag to view a list of all flowers and herbs used, and mineral ID if crystals were bound to your bundles.
