Mary Magdalene Incense
Many consider
Mary Magdalene to be as much of a teacher and prophet as Jesus
was. We were struck by the similarities between her image and
that of the prophet Miriam, who like Mary Magdalene is traditionally associated with
myrrh, the resin of death and of the psychopomp. But unlike Miriam,
Mary Magdalene also has a role as one who initiates devotees into
mysteries. This incense honors her by incorporating
sweet myrrh, benzoin, amber, storax,
cinnamon, and clove—there is the balsamic, a soothing scent group
often connected with the feminine, but there is also spice, for
the fire of epiphany, and of course sweet myrrh, the resin of death
and conversely, immortality. Try it for works involving initiation,
the acquisition of secrets, connection with the divine feminine,
and for guidance to the Underworld. If
you need an equivalent oil for your work, try Magdalene
Intiatrix.
