Frankincense Resin

Frankincense, also known as olibanum, is an aromatic resin obtained from the Boswellia tree, which is native to the dry, mountainous regions of the Middle East, Africa, and India. For centuries, it has been used as incense in religious and magickal ceremonies. Frankincense is one of the oldest documented magickal resins and has been valued for its beneficial properties for over 5,000 years.

This resin is known to raise one’s spiritual vibration, serving as an incense for cleansing, protection, and purification. Burning Frankincense resin can purify and cleanse a sacred space before rituals, and it can be used to consecrate wands and altar tools. Additionally, it is often included in mojo or charm bags to help practitioners attract luck and success in both spiritual and material pursuits.

Other uses for Frankincense include awakening higher consciousness, enhancing meditation, and promoting spiritual growth. It is associated with the deities Ra and Baal, the element of Fire, and the planet Sun, representing masculine energy.

To use Frankincense resin, take a small bowl or cauldron that can withstand heat and fill it with sand. Place a lit charcoal disc in the centre and ignite it, ensuring that it begins to burn properly. Once the charcoal is lit, sprinkle a small amount of the resin on top. Remember to never leave the burning charcoal unattended.

Each vial of Frankincense Resin contains 30 grams and features a pentacle charm.
