Mar, Mor. It lives up to its name with a wonderfully rich, stimulating and very palatable bitterness. Some associate this with the names Mary, (Mar-Yam), Miriam, Mariam, and believe it to mean the bitter of the sea, froth of the sea. Also the name of the Goddess Aphrodite which is said to mean \"risen from the froth of the sea\".\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMyrrh is ruled Astrologically by the Moon and the sign of Cancer, considered to be of a feminine nature, and has an affinity with water, ebb and flow and especially the fluid systems of our body where it helps regulate and rebalance the digestive tract, oral cavity, and women's menses. ( Frankincense is ruled by the Sun). \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn Some Somali Harvesting communities, Myrrh, which forms as a natural exudate on the tree, is harvested exclusively by the women of the clan. Frankincense which requires stripping and tapping of the tree is managed and performed only by the men.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e◯\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRESINS :\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eResin is the life-blood of the tree, healing its wounds and inflictions and protecting it against infection. In short, resin repairs, protects and heals.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt also has a long history of use in ceremonial practices all around the world from some of the most renowned civilizations—from the ancient Egyptians to the Native Americans.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhen burned, these precious resins emit a holy smoke and beautiful fragrance that is known to clear negative energies, connect us with the our higher consciousness and spiritual realms and surround us with high vibrations. They are also used to heal, balance and protect our physical and energetic bodies.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e◯\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHOW TO SMUDGE WITH RESINS :\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNatural fragrant botanicals can be burned on special incense charcoal tablets or disks. The heat releases their beauty and aromatic properties.\u003cbr\u003e\nTo light any type of charcoal, Use your coconut charcoals included in the kit, light your hemp wick and hold it underneath a charcoal tilted sideways, hold the charcoal with tongs, pinchers, chopsticks or carefully with your fingers, over the flame until the edge begins to glow. I like to light my charcoal outside and then bring it into the house when possible.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAlways wait until the coal has a full coating of white ash on it before placing incense, this creates a cushion over the the intense heat of Coal.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThen place the charcoal onto an ash, sand or prepared censer. (a heat-proof or stone bowl, clay copalera) You can also fill a bowl with sand and place the charcoal on top of the sand so there is a protective layer, do not let the charcoal touch the bowl or it will ruin it, also don’t use your favorite bowl, it is best to dedicate a bowl - can be metal, stone, etc for burning resin. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt is always best to grind resins placing them onto the charcoal, as when you put whole resin pieces they can start to burn after a minute or so causing an unpleasant smell and also melt onto the charcoal putting it out much fast. I have a small mortar \u0026amp; pestle dedicated to grinding resins into a powder.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAfter the charcoal is ignited and covered with ash, you may put the resin directly on the live coal.\u003cbr\u003e\nThere should be a good amount of smoke, for the smoke brings purity and the presence will linger.\u003cbr\u003e\nCarrying the censer from room to room, visualize the space becoming free of old patterns and misfortune, clear of negativity. Think that all that this smoke touches will be blessed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n","brand":"CLARÉIA","offers":[{"title":"1\/2","offer_id":43355344535708,"sku":"","price":5.6,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"1","offer_id":43355344568476,"sku":"","price":9.8,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"4","offer_id":43355344601244,"sku":"","price":14.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"8","offer_id":43355344634012,"sku":"","price":19.6,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"16","offer_id":43355344666780,"sku":"","price":40.6,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0512\/9663\/2988\/files\/il_fullxfull.1640749122_h4ou.jpg?v=1712127538","url":"https:\/\/clareia.love\/products\/myrrh-resin","provider":"CLARÉIA","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
