Frankincense

The Frankincense tree holds soul medicine from the earth and helps us to recognise our inner qualities of vitality and expansion. It empowers us to become grounded in body, flowing in emotion and free in spirit. This can be helpful when connecting with sources for inspiration, creativity and healing to ground visions to the physical world.

Frankincense is made from the resin of the Boswellia tree family. It grows in the driest deserts of Africa, India, mountains of Asia and across the vast expanse of the Arabian desert.   For more than 6,000 years, Frankincense has been transported by caravans of camels, and traded from the Horn of Africa and the Arabian Sea.

Its woody fragrance and medicinal properties has been an integral part of spiritual and religious ceremonies in almost every ancient civilisation in Europe, North Africa, the Middle East and China and has been found in the remains of ancient Egyptian and Anglo-Saxon civilizations. In the Bible, it was offered with gold and myrrh by the three kings at the birth of Jesus. 

The calming properties of Frankincense continues to be used for meditation, prayer and ceremony in churches, temples and monasteries. It is also widely used in Ayurveda and traditional Chinese medicine. Folklore remedies use Frankincense to treat a wide variety of medical conditions such as wounds, arthritis, digestive disorders, improve mood, reduce pain and inflammation, and boost immunity. Its woody, spicy smell and can be inhaled, absorbed through the skin or steeped into a hot tea or fresh water.

Frankincense Origins

It is a short shrub, that grows 3-7 meters high across the desert plains and the arid conditions of Yemen, Somalia, Ethiopia, Eritrea and India. It often has an abundance of leaves and blossoms with white or pale pink flowers.

 The desert people of East Africa and the Arabian Peninsula have produced and traded frankincense for 5,000 years and continue to do so with stringent government regulations to ensure its conservation and restoration.

Its fragrant perfume and healing qualities are found referenced in numerous Chinese, Greek, Latin and Sanskrit sources used for medicinal, ritual and religious reasons. Frankincense was once was so revered, that it was  exclusively harvested only for royalty. The Egyptians used Frankincense for the embalming processes of mummification and was intended to accompany the Pharaohs into the afterlife. The Israelites of Jerusalem burned Frankincense in their temples to assist with the ancient pathway to prayer. The Roman emperor Nero, was known to have burned an entire year of harvest of frankincense at the funeral of his favourite mistress. It will always be known and remembered as the sacred offering graciously gifted by the three wise men to the newly born Jesus.
