Shaman Incense – Deep Protection & Cleansing

This unique incense offers a strong cleansing and protective effect. It is based on wormwood – one of the most magical herbs of our Slavic ancestors. Wormwood, used in herbal medicine, is known for its antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties, and is traditionally used to ward off negative energies. In the past, homes were fumigated with wormwood to protect against lightning.

In addition to wormwood, this incense contains oak leaf, rowan leaf, mugwort, wolfsbane, and yarrow. Oak – a sacred tree in Slavic culture – was believed to protect against witchcraft and, in legend, even had the power to resurrect. Yarrow combats curses, wolfsbane protects from spells and spiritual ailments, and rowan was said to grow on the borderline between good and evil.

Length: approximately 18 cm (+/- 2 cm)

Note: Each incense wand is handmade. The herb composition remains the same, but due to natural variation in plant shapes, visual differences may occur.

How to Burn Shaman Incense

Light the tip of the incense wand until the herbs catch flame, then gently blow it out to allow it to smolder. Make downward, upward, or circular motions to fan the smoke. Place the incense on a non-flammable surface and let it burn safely.

You can carry it around to cleanse your body or room. Always have a heat-safe base with you to catch falling ash. Shaman incense is best used with intention – perfect for deep purification and energetic protection ceremonies.
