These smudging feathers are an imitation of the real eagle feather 10-12″ in length. A great way to fan the smudge stick or use this feather to write with ink. Each feather is unique and sold.
Feathers serve as sacred tools, particularly during purification rituals, where they are used to guide the smoke from burning plants towards the intended object or space, thereby expediting the purification process.
Eagle Feather symbolizes respect, honour, strength, courage and wisdom.
In traditional practices, purification rituals ideally incorporate the four elements: wind, fire, water, and earth. By gently waving the feather, it generates a representation of the element of wind. The flame that arises from burning represents the element of fire, while the abalone shell that holds the herbs represents the element of water. Finally, the herbs themselves symbolize the element of earth.
