Lemongrass is a herb of cleansing and clearing, its sharp citrus scent used to sweep away stagnant energy and open the way forward. Scott Cunningham places it under Mercury and the element of Air, tied to mental clarity and psychic awareness, which sets it on Wednesday among the days of the week.

Practitioners burn lemongrass to cleanse a space, clear obstacles and stuck energy, and sharpen focus before study, divination, or any work that asks for a clear head. The incense does not act on its own; it freshens and lifts the air and helps you settle into your own intention. Where the resins clear by weight, lemongrass clears by brightness, which makes it the better choice when a room is stale rather than heavy.

1. Light the tip. Hold a flame to the coated tip until it catches, then gently blow it out so the tip glows and releases a steady ribbon of smoke.
2. Set it in a holder. Rest the plain end in an incense holder or ash catcher on a heat-safe surface that will catch the falling ash.
3. Set your intention. As the citrus scent fills the room, name what you are clearing or opening.
4. Burn it before study or divination, when a clear head is the point.
5. Burn it safely. Burn in a ventilated space away from anything flammable, keep it clear of curtains and drafts, and never leave burning incense unattended.
