The Magickal Power of Scent: Essential Oils

Using Essential Oils

Thanks everyone for the birthday wishes for my husband yesterday, that warmed my heart! 

Speaking of warming hearts... I have just started to incorporating using an essential oil warmer and oils into my spiritual practice! During the spooky new moon over the weekend, I did a typical cleansing but then finished off with warming some cinnamon leaf oil to help add additional protection to my home and my spirit. Cinnamon is so powerful! It is one of the best protectors that I know and smells so fantastic. It can make any house feel like a home.

I can not go topical with oils because I am allergic and sensitive to everything but I can infuse my space with the healing and protective qualities of this magical ingredient.

I would love to hear about your experience with oils and what you use them for! Is this a magickal tool you use often? What is your favourite that you keep going back to no matter what?

Cinnamon smells especially good around Christmas time, I don't know why!

I love my oil burner! My favorite combinations are clary sage and lavendar (for stress relief) or peppermint and either rosemary or lavendar (for spiritual cleansing)
