Cedar holds a distinct place in ceremony.
It is burned to protect the medicine circle, to prepare the chanupa before prayer, to call in ancestral support for healing.
Some teachings connect cedar with storm and lightning; forces of presence, strength, and protection.
The scent tells you immediately what it is.
When cedar meets the coal or the stone, the smoke is sharp and resinous.
It doesn’t drift quietly, it arrives fully.
The air shifts.
Attention sharpens.
Origin
This cedar has been brought home in small amounts from the south of Chile, carried in relationship and with intention.
If you sit regularly, you’ll know why that matters.
