One of the traditions of the Javanese people that still exists today and is ingrained and has become a routine for the Javanese every year is ‘sedekah bumi’. The systematic literature review (SLR) approach is used in this paper to examine five scientific articles on the local wisdom values ​​of the “sedekah bumi” tradition (Indigenous Counseling) practiced in Javanese culture. For Javanese people who work as farmers and fishermen, this tradition has become an annual ritual. ‘Sedekah bumi’ or ‘sedekah laut’ tradition is not only a routine that is carried out every year, but both traditions have deep meaning and are ingrained in Javanese society. Therefore, even now the Javanese people still carry out the tradition of “sedekah bumi”and ‘sedekah laut’ and make it their identity in their daily behavior. ‘Sedekah bumi’ tradition is carried out once a year in order to maintain harmonious relations between individuals and their ancestors or with nature and is a form of local wisdom in the form of ceremonies or traditions which are a manifestation of communication between humans and nature.
