SWEETGRASS BRAID- 5 INCH : Sweetgrass is sacred to many Native cultures. it is believed to be the sacred hair of O’gushnan, Mother Earth, and is often braided; the three sections representing mind, body, and soul. The three sections of the braid represent love, kindness, and honesty. Most Native People follow very sacred traditions and believe that when one takes something from the Earth - for example when sweetgrass is picked - then an explanation to the spirit about why it is being picked and how it will be used is required. The explanation is often accompanied by an offering of tobacco in return for the generosity shown by the Earth and the plant which shared itself. Sweetgrass is used in smudges, healing or talking circles because it has a healing effect - its smoke is believed to purify thoughts, the environment and eliminate bad or negative thoughts.
