The cedar is considered the tree of God in many cultures. Its shape, its height and its rather austere fragrance express a sublimity that many associate with the majesty of heaven.
Since the cedar appears so sublime, pure and almost untouchable, it stands to reason that it is smoked for protection. It is also said to promote courage, endurance, honourableness, but also prestige and prosperity, or luck in general.
Also, its scent effectively protects against moths on a very earthly level.
