18 grams of sacred Frankincense and Myrrh Tree Resin for magic...ready to burn or inspire something of your own creation! Frankincense and Myrrh have been revered since ancient times for their healing and spiritual properties. Frankincense is the sap from the Boswellia tree native to tropical regions of Africa and Asia. Myrrh is also a tree resin from the Commiphora species. Frankincense and Myrrh have been found to have antiseptic, anti-inflammatory, and analgesic properties making them powerful healers. These sacred substances have a rich history... "The ancient Egyptians bought entire boatloads of the resins from the Phoenicians, using them in incense, insect repellent, perfume and salves for wounds and sores; they were also key ingredients in the embalming process. Myrrh oil served as a rejuvenating facial treatment, while frankincense was charred and ground into a powder to make the heavy kohl eyeliner Egyptian women famously wore. " - Jennie Cohen, History.com
