Black Veil Incense
During the darkening period of the year, what could be more appropriate than some incense dedicated to looking through the veil between here and there? We constructed this incense with the historical uses of the ingredients in mind: myrrh for the preservation of the bodies of the dead, cypress because of its connection with coffin-making and its role as graveyard guardian. We also added some European mandrake extract to give it some extra power, as this root, while very sunny actually in its spirit, knows much about the Underworld. We added the black/indigo fruits of juniper and opoponax, with its Plutonian connections (Pluto being the Saturn of moderns when it comes to working with the dead). This incense is meant to be an aid to necromancy and exploring the Underworld. It is also good for any dark work.

Black Veil Incense is ritually handcrafted using natural botanical ingredients. It does not contain dyes, chemical extenders, fragrance oils, accelerants, fillers, or synthetic materials of any kind. However, this type of incense does require a source of heat, like a charcoal tablet, to release its scent. Click here for tips about working with loose incense.
