    Sage is used for cleansing, to dispel negativity, evil spirits and intents,
    to purify, to release ghosts to the spirit world and to cleanse past
    occupants from a new home. A combination of sage, sweetgrass, and tobacco is
    used when seeking visions. Juniper especially is the favourite of the
    Thunderbird (called Wakinyan by Lakotas), who protects the 4 winds and
    weather. The Thunderbird is a book in itself, but for general purposes, it
    sweeps newness and freshness in with the winds. Don't forget to burn juniper
    during a thunderstorm for the Thunderbirds pleasure.
