Sage Advice

You may want to prepare your home for Thanksgiving with this Native American cleansing ritual. The following seven minute video shows you how to harvest, dry, and smoke - I mean burn - the sacred herb. I'm talking, of course, about sage.

Sage refers to two things: One venerated for experience, calm judgment, and wisdom; or an aromatic plant with grayish-green leaves that are used as a culinary and medicinal herb, White sage (Artemesia califoncia) and Desert sage (Salvia apiana).

I leave it up to you to decide who the first definition refers to, but the second definition conjures up to me visions of a dark-skinned roasted turkey on a bed of herbs and savory stuffing.

However you use this aromatic plant over the holiday season, may it bless and protect your home with its healing powers.
