A generous plant ruled
by Jupiter, the
copaifera tree
gives its oleoresin, (liquid copal), very freely. It hardens
into the form of copal usually encountered, white or gold, with a
stimulating and
warming odor. Like many Jupiter scents, this resin is frequently used
in ritual purification of both objects and people. It is wonderful for
charging objects
with Jovian vibrations. It also is a fixative in perfume, where it
tends to mellow harsh scents. It plays a role in traditional medicine;
the Guarani people of the Amazon use it to heal wounds after battle
(which indicates a strong protective ability),
and it has a long history of use for various health problems in
the West. Copal has a light resinous scent that mixes nicely with
similarly subtle red sandalwood.
