Natural incense can be used for various purification rituals, including the “cleansing” of the aura. It is suitable for burning on charcoal or in special incense burners.
Element: Fire
Main effect on: Body
Eucalyptus leaves contain an essential oil particularly rich in eucalyptol, terpenes (pinene, camphene, fellandrene); aldehydes; polyphenols (gallic acid, ferulic acid, gentisic acid); flavonoids (rutoside, hyperoside) and tannins.
These active compounds give the plant a balsamic, mucolytic, and expectorant action on catarrhal secretions of the respiratory tract.
For this reason, it is used in herbal medicine for inflammation and congestion, such as coughs and colds, and in the treatment of sinusitis.
Furthermore, due to the presence of essential oil, eucalyptus has a highly effective antibacterial and antiseptic action for urogenital tract conditions such as cystitis, leukorrhea, and candidiasis, for which it is also recommended due to its deodorizing properties.
Use
Suitable for burning on a heat-resistant saucer with charcoal or in an incense burner with a sieve. The combustion process in an incense burner with a sieve is slower than with charcoal. The incense can easily be mixed with other varieties of incense.
Scientific Name: Helichrysum italicum
Family: Asteraceae
Origin: Europe
Color: Yellow
Aroma: Spicy
Properties: Anti-inflammatory and anti-allergic
Quantity: 30 ml
Italian helichrysum (Helichrysum italicum) is a very common wild plant throughout the Mediterranean basin. It belongs to the Asteraceae family and is known for its anti-allergic and anti-inflammatory properties, useful for treating respiratory and skin disorders.
Properties of Italian helichrysum
The flowering tops of Italian helichrysum are used because they are rich in essential oil, flavonoids, and organic acids that give the plant numerous properties. Italian helichrysum leaves and flowers are used in cooking as a flavoring and in herbal medicine for their anti-inflammatory and anti-allergic action, as well as their expectorant, analgesic, antibacterial, and healing properties. Thanks to its properties, Italian helichrysum is used in the treatment of allergies affecting the airways and skin tissues. Regarding the respiratory system, Italian helichrysum promotes the elimination of excess bronchial mucus, alleviates asthma spasms, and reduces inflammation of the nasal mucosa caused by allergies. For internal use, the plant is therefore used in the treatment of allergies, rhinitis, allergic conjunctivitis and blepharitis, cough, and acute and chronic bronchitis.
For topical use, on the other hand, the plant is a specific remedy for soothing and reducing inflammation in cases of psoriasis, herpes, eczema, burns, and sunburn, and for calming irritation of sensitive skin, thanks to its decongestant and protective action. Another important property of external use of Italian helichrysum is its astringent, anti-edematous, and analgesic action, as it counteracts inflammation and pain, tones the vein walls, and reduces fluid leakage and vein dilation, properties useful in cases of hemorrhoids, arthritis, and acute rheumatic conditions.
Description of the plant
A perennial subshrub growing 25–40 centimeters tall, with a compact growth habit and woody stems covered in dense whitish fuzz that gives off a characteristic curry-like aroma. The leaves are gray or ashen, dense, linear, and pubescent on both sides. The flowers are yellow capitula, predominantly tubular, arranged in dense cymes of 25–35 flower heads. After flowering, the fruits develop—oval achenes equipped with pappi.
Habitat of Italian helichrysum
A characteristic plant of low Mediterranean scrub, widespread in uncultivated, stony, sunny, and arid areas. In Italy, it is found mainly in central and southern regions and on the islands, from the coasts to altitudes of over one thousand meters, especially in areas with good sun exposure.
Historical background
Helichrysum is a name introduced in the early 1700s in reference to the radiant appearance of this plant's flower heads and their golden color. The name indeed derives from the Greek helios, "sun," and chrysos, "gold," and refers precisely to the shape and bright golden yellow of its flowers and to the fact that the plant grows in very sunny and warm places. Italian helichrysum, whose family includes numerous species, is also known as "immortelle," probably because it retains the color of its flowers for a very long time, along with its fragrance, which is very similar to licorice or curry.
Use
Suitable for burning on a heat-resistant saucer with charcoal or in an incense burner with a sieve. The burning process in an incense burner with a sieve is slower than with charcoal. The incense can easily be mixed with other varieties of incense.
Origin: Egypt
Color: Brown - Amber
Aroma: Warm, sweet, velvety, floral, earthy with a spicy note
Properties: Purifying, disinfectant, lightens the mind
Quantity: 60 grams
A blend of incense resin and essential oils.
Egyptian musk is a mystical fragrance, said to uplift and lighten a heavy mind and body.
Hundreds of ancient wall friezes in Egyptian archaeological sites show Egyptian women pouring oil into larger vessels, wearing scented wax cones on their heads, and rubbing perfume on their bodies. This Egyptian musk oil was a perfume, but it also helped enhance the skin's natural radiance and made men and women pleasant and alluring. Both body odor and the smell of hair were considered taboo by the ancient Egyptians.
In an effort to keep it clean, many Egyptians shaved their entire bodies. Rich women and men literally covered their hair and skin in Egyptian musk. When their bodies sweated, whether from the sun or physical activity, the musk released its strong fragrance, eliminating any other odors.
Egyptian musk was highly prized by the Egyptian people and was a common item found in Egyptian tombs. Most people describe the fragrance of Egyptian musk as a pronounced floral, earthy aroma with a spicy note.
Historians believe that the ancient Egyptians used thick, particularly strong blends so that the skin would slowly absorb them, then release them over very long periods. Some of the known ingredients in these ancient recipes also included myrrh and frankincense; these resins are easily harvested from native trees.
Use of the resin: to burn it, charcoal briquettes must be used. They should be lit with a lighter or stove flame; therefore, it is recommended to use tongs or similar to avoid unpleasant burns. When the charcoal begins to ignite over its entire surface, it is time to place it in the burner and add the resin.
Experts recommend placing a little sand around the essence burner to help it better dissipate the heat.
