About this product
A doorway, a threshold, a season ending and another about to begin. Across rituals and cultures around the world runs an ancient tradition of using juniper to cleanse and repel negative energy, and this extract is made for moments of transition like these.
It is a select CO2 extract, made in Germany from organically produced berries of Juniperus communis grown in Bosnia and Herzegovina. Softer and aromatically rounder than distilled juniper berry oil, it shines in energetic work: aromatherapy educator Madeleine Kerkhof describes it as at once uplifting and grounding, purifying and banishing emotional and spiritual negativity. It is said to give a feeling of safety and protection, and in skin care to help balance oily skin and hair.
Details
- Botanical name: Juniperus communis
- Origin: berries grown in Bosnia and Herzegovina, organically produced
- Method: select CO2 extraction, Germany
- Blends with: cypress, eucalyptus, grapefruit, lemon, fennel, rosemary
How to use
For a ritual of transition, blend it with white sage essential oil or sage CO2 and diffuse it as one chapter closes and the next begins. Commission E monographs and regulatory guidelines state that juniper may cause kidney damage or irritation, though Robert Tisserand found no evidence for this, nor for the pregnancy and fetal dangers cited.
