 Clearing
Oil
Traditional churchy scents inspired the base of
this oil--frankincense for the Western church in the Old World, myrrh
for the Eastern church, and copal for the church in the New World. But
since cedar has such a long history of use in holy
spaces that are not Christian (such as the cedar pillars in Solomon's
Temple) and is a generally uplifting and clean scent, excellent for
repelling nasties, we incorporate it in a codistillation with
frankincense. In order to be a little more
inclusive of yet other paths, we add bay leaf, which is a good
purifier but also has a tradition of spiritual use going back to
ancient Greece and was part of the worship of Apollo. This magic oil
has lots
of solar power in the frankincense, copal, bay leaf, and cedar, but the
powers of the Underworld are not forgotten with the myrrh, so it is
balanced. Finally, we add a hint of rare aloeswood, which--according to our founder, Harold Roth--is the
absolute best scent for ridding a space of unwanted
entities. This oil is a great general-purpose get-lost oil,
good for cleansing ritual spaces or for personal protection from
hostile entities. Top
