Question 1

What is ruda, and how does it differ from other sages?

Accepted Answer

Ruda (Ruta graveolens, common rue) is not actually a true sage species but a distinct, strongly aromatic protective plant from Mexican and Latin American folk tradition. Its scent is sharper, more bitter, and more spicy than white or black sage. It is traditionally used for removing negative energies and spiritually protecting a space.

Question 2

Is burning ruda safe around pregnant women or young children?

Accepted Answer

Ruda contains potent aromatic compounds – it is advisable for pregnant women and those with young children to avoid burning ruda, or to consult a doctor beforehand. For healthy adults, short ceremonies in a well-ventilated room are generally suitable.

Question 3

How can you recognise a good-quality ruda bundle?

Accepted Answer

A good-quality ruda bundle is hand-rolled, fresh greenish-grey in colour, and strongly aromatic. If the bundle has turned brown, dry, or lost its scent, most of the essential oils have evaporated and the ceremonial quality has diminished. It is best purchased fresh and stored properly.
