A very magical herb, laurel has been consecrated to Sun gods like Apollo since ancient times. Unusually for a Sun herb, it also has a long history of use in divination--the roof of the Temple at Delphi was roofed with this plant, for instance, and even today witches breathe the scent of laurel leaves for help with divination. Wonderful for dressing candles or musical instruments (Apollo is the god of music) and for protection. Steam-distilled from Laurus nobilis leaves in Spain. Top Combining With Other Essential Oils
The fresh, sweet camphorousness of
laurel combines well with
blood orange, lemon, lime,
clary sage, cypress, hyssop, juniper,
labdanum, olibanum, pine, rosemary, and spice oils.
