1/2 in a small jar. May be burned on charcoal or light directly. Will require you to hold the flame to it a bit longer than my usual self igniting incense but I think its a better burn and scent this way without the coal.
This blend was born on the morning of March 16th, 2026 — Teddy’s ninth birthday. Teddy loves many things in life. He loves the beach. He loves the park. But most of all… he loves balls.
Tennis balls, basketballs, volleyballs — it doesn’t matter. If it’s round and bouncy, Teddy is absolutely obsessed.
That morning I took him to the park by the beach. We climbed up onto a small grassy hill overlooking the ocean. The ground was alive with green leaves and wild little flowers. It was quiet, beautiful, and full of life.
I took off my shoes and stood barefoot in the grass, grounding into the earth and tuning into the moment with Teddy.
That’s when we found them.
A huge patch of what I thought were daisies. I started picking a few, thinking they would look lovely placed inside a bottle of oil. One handful turned into another, and before I knew it I had gathered a whole bundle of these little white flowers.
Later, once I returned home, curiosity got the better of me. I began comparing photos and researching the plant. They weren’t daisies at all. They were called "Fleabane".
And the folklore surrounding this humble little flower immediately made sense. Fleabane has long been used to repel insects and pests, especially fleas — something that felt perfectly fitting for a charm connected to our beloved animal companions. In folk magic it is also associated with cleansing, protection, and warding away unwanted influences.
At that moment the purpose of the blend became clear. This blend is meant to cleanse and protect the home environment, not to be burned directly around your pet.
Please do not smudge your animals. Instead, burn the incense in your home while they are in another room, or cleanse their space while they are outside of it. That being said I did go for a more natural softer ingredient list.
When I physically made this blend, my little familiar was having anxiety. He is very smart and aware, so when I’m off, he feels it. That night, we weren’t connecting—he seemed nervous to be around me.
So I added damiana and rosemary to accompany the main recipe of fleabane, chamomile, bay, lavender, and honeysuckle, to bring in the energy of healing and communication without words. His small anxiety episode calmed after I burned the incense and prayed. Some relaxing music for dogs also helped.
Now, whenever my nugget needs extra attention without me being in his face, I burn Fleabane and play the music, letting the smoke carry our prayers up to the Goddess.
This work is offered with love for the animals who share our lives and our spirits. May every furry companion be safe, protected, and peacefully resting beside those who love them. In the name of Hecate, who delights in the sound of dogs barking at the night, and in the name of Diana, guardian of all wild creatures and gentle protectress of the small. As it is, so will it be.
