During #Hogmanay (New Year's Eve)
Scots have a custom called, The Saining of the House. Once the house was clean, the woman of the house would carry around a smoking Juniper branch. #Saining cleanses the home of negative energy or evil spirits of plague.
For seasoned sailor Ray Jason, Panama’s eastern coast is the place to call home. https://t.co/yoSvLTLdfF #saining #hurricans #cruising

@MxToYou @makokaazo @Rachelle_Fox @3liza @Lia_Echevarria @ThreeDailey The Irish purification traditions that survived into our grandparents times were usually associated with outdoor fire festivals, and the names are often associated with the Saints they were Christianised under. Like #saining, they involve large fires, not small bundles of herbs.
But also, #Saining isn't the "#CelticSmudging". The individual #Celtic cultures, like different #Native cultures, have their own languages, traditions and practices. It's about being centered in that culture, not ripping bits and pieces out of context.
@Rachelle_Fox @3liza @Lia_Echevarria @makokaazo @ThreeDailey Just to clarify here, #Saining is a Scots word, and the only herb used is Juniper. It's particularly Scottish, not general Celtic.

#Saining is not "Celtic smudging". It only sometimes involves burning herbs. The core part is the songs and prayers in the language. Knowing the spirits and having ongoing relationships with them. Being part of the culture. We are also being misrepresented. #GaelicPolytheism.
@margaret_vivian @screwtxpe @ghoshalpaisen @astro_olson @ScyneWaive Traditional #saining rites don't use feathers. They aren't done in English. They don't involve putting burning materials, of any kind, into abalone shells. They don't involve the plants used in a form referred to as a "bundle" or "stick". #FraudRedFlags #PlasticScots #Pretendians
⚡️ “Saining is a particular, Gaelic ceremony, not "white smudging".”

@margaret_vivian @screwtxpe @ghoshalpaisen @astro_olson @ScyneWaive Here is my sister Annie's article on it. It has been widely plagiarized - large chunks copied and pasted elsewhere online without credit. This is just the basics. Private, traditional groups have ceremonies, in Gaelic. https://t.co/Zytw7xxS7v #Saining is not to be sold. Or stolen
Here we go again. #Saining is a ceremony. It's not "white people #smudging". If a non is telling you *anything* is the equivalent of a Native ceremony, ask: "How would they know?" They're probably mimicking #pretendian shit. People who say that don't know #Gaelic OR #Native trads
@margaret_vivian @screwtxpe @ghoshalpaisen @astro_olson @ScyneWaive Actually, no. Juniper is used in very specific ways in Scottish Gaelic tradition. It has to be harvested in a certain way, with traditional ceremonies. It's not a "white people way of smudging." It ALSO belongs to a particular ethno-linguistic cultural group. And Cedar is Native.
