Goddess Mut Smudge Feather

This is a naturally shed feather from the great Turkey Vulture or Buzzard  which has been prepared as a sacred smudge feather. This bird is the totem animal of the Egyptian Goddess Mut and she is often depicted wearing a vulture feather headress. Her identity as mother of the cosmos gave her aspects of a creator goddess and symbolized prophecy of the future, new vision, protection, renewal, resourcefulness, opportunity, and allegiance. Use this smudge feather with sage or incense to cleanse auras and rooms. approx 50cm long
