Cedar has been used for centuries in ceremonial, magical, and spiritual traditions, including Indigenous practices, for purification, protection, and prosperity. The smoke is highly purifying and can help clear negative energy or ward off bad dreams. Twigs may be burned or made into incense, and boiling Cedar can be used for cleansing baths. Cedar is strongly associated with prosperity when kept in homes or personal spaces.

Important:Cedar is for external or ritual use only and should never be ingested, as some species can be toxic. Always use in well-ventilated spaces when burning.
