 Copal resin
A generous plant ruled by Jupiter, the copaifera tree
gives its oleoresin, (liquid
copal), very freely. It hardens
into the form of copal usually encountered, white or gold, with a stimulating and
warming odor. Like many Jupiter scents, this resin is frequently used in ritual
purification of both objects and people. It is wonderful for charging objects
with Jovian vibrations. It also is a fixative in perfume, where it
tends to mellow harsh scents. It plays a role in traditional medicine;
the Guarani people of the Amazon use it to heal wounds after battle (which indicates
a strong protective ability),
and it has a long history of use for various health problems in
the West. Copal has a light resinous scent that mixes nicely with similarly
subtle red
sandalwood.
