For this month’s blend, I chose oils that help clear the way for our inner light and brilliance to shine clearly through!
Lemongrass is a powerful energetic cleanser, and can easily be used to purify our spaces both energetically and practically speaking. It’s a wonderful companion to assist us in letting go of limiting beliefs or challenges from the past that we’re clinging to. Lemongrass lends discernment and clarity and teaches us to move forward without hesitation.
Hinoki is the beautiful, mildly sweet conifer oil from Asia that we received as January’s Product of the Month. Energetically, Hinoki brings in fluidity and a gentle ease that allows us to uncoil and release tension we didn’t even realize we were holding onto. Hinoki leads us to take action toward greater harmony in our lives.
Sandalwood is the oil of sacred devotion, and it challenges us to reframe our priorities with our higher purpose in life. It aids us in leaving behind unhealthy attachments that interfere with our ability to connect to the divine flow of abundance, grace, and inspiration. Sandalwood quiets the chatter of our “monkey mind” and empowers us to hear the subtle voice of our soul.
Cardamom is a warming oil that brings objective clarity, especially when emotions are running high. Traditionally used in digestive support, Cardamom helps us to metabolize our strong, passionate feelings by redirecting them to our solar plexus, which is the center of personal responsibility. In this way, Cardamom can help us to feel more calm and rational by encouraging a healthy sense of response-ability (literally, our ability to respond).
