Smudging Question...
I really like to smudge my house to get all the vibes going... usually after parties or times when my SO and I have bickered or just when the house feels "stale". However, I tend to clean the house first then smudge but due to an injury I haven't been able to get my whole house cleaned up so I can smudge ( I prefer to do the whole house at once rather than room by room). A friend of mines says she smudges even if the house is a little untidy whereas another said you should never do it when the house is untidy unless it's an emergency.
HeLp!! Can I smudge if my place is less than perfectly cleaned or should I do room by room and hope that helps? Also, do you smudge your bathroom?! I never have but both myself and my SO have been sick so I feel like there would be a lot of negative energy in there I'd like to move on out. I do have up wind chimes and I ring them once a day to get the stagnate vibes out but I can just tell that my place needs a really good smudging!! Thanks for any idea's or thoughts!!

I say give it a shot smudging in a messy house. I couldn't clean up to save my life but that has never stopped me from smudging and I feel that its worked quite well despite the mess. I would say just give it a shot, if it doesn't work, oh well, clean up and try again when you can. Just because it didn't work for your friend doesnt mean that it cant work for you.

I tend to straighten up a bit before smudging...cuts out the whole injuring myself in the process factor, but Do it no matter what. Even if it doesnt work perfectly it will a little, and after all, it cant hurt.
As for the bathroom, I always do every room in the house including the bathroom otherwise it feels off balance. In situations like these all i can say is follow your gut and do what you feel you should.

I love using White Copal first, even if I can't get to a 'deep' clean anytime soon. It really clears out the air, especially if you have the windows open.
After a while, I use whatever smudge or oil I want. Perks things right up.  HTH!
