Botanical incense pastilles designed for each one of the seven ancient planets.
This series of these resin-based, monastery-style incense pastilles is the result of close to 20 years of researching the botanical symbolism and alchemical traditions of each planet, and creating the best depiction of these planetary energies.
MARS
The red planet is often misunderstood: it has a reputation of war and destruction; yet it is in fact a planet of great healing powers. Destruction is often necessary for renewal to take place. Mars is also responsible for keeping our boundaries and therefore promotes assertiveness and gives protection.
Blend of the exotic and potent Dragon's Blood, rose geranium, cloves, tobacco, benzoin and costus root.
Burn on Tuesdays or whenever you feel vulnerable and need some extra courage.

The inspiration for this unique incense blend is an encounter with a Red Dragonfly that sat on my hand one morning while meditating in the creek. I always felt that dragonflies were magical creatures - catching the light with their bejeweled wings as they flutter between water and air. The red one is also fiery!
Red Dragonfly incense cones are hand-rolled in the traditional technique, made from finely ground botanicals such as dragon's blood, red sandalwood, frankincense and spices.
No saltpetre or charcoal used in these cones. Bound with natural gums and wood bark only.
Each box contains a dozen cones.

Triple Goddess incense cones were handcrafted with reverence to all phases of the moon, and all facets of womanhood - Maiden/Mother/Crone, the birth, pregnancy and softening of the age of wisdom. This incense is created with women's healing in mind, for all stages of life, but especially for times of transition, large and small - be it birth, loss or the monthly bleeding time.
Triple Goddess incense cones were conceived on a a Full Moon Monday and are infused with energy that is meant to aid and assist women and girls during the time of bleeding and any other challenges faced by Womanity.
Incense resins of the three colours representing the Life-Death-Life cycle were chosen lovingly for this blend: Frankincense and White Copal for the Maiden; Dragon's Blood for Motherhood, Bleeding and the "Fertile" years; and Black Copal, Bdellium and Myrrh for the wisdom of the Crone. These were all manually ground with mortar and pestle, and mixed with finely powdered red and white sandalwood for an even burn of mysteriously fragrant smoke.
* This incense is also available in a loose-incense, resin-based blend, in which all these colours are visible.
Incense cones, hand-rolled in the traditional Asian style, made from botanicals that were finely ground on location and artfully blended. No saltpetre or charcoal used in these cones. Cones are generally faster burning than a thick joss stick (range of burning time may be from 7-15min, and produce more smoke. They are more convenient to burn while traveling and outdoors, and they stand on their own base, and therefore don't really require special equipment or vessels.
Burning instruction: Prepare a heat-proof vessel, on a sturdy surface away from flammables and out of reach of children and animals. To prevent scorch marks, it is recommended that you layer some sand, earth or ash on the vessel. Place the cone and light the tip of it, and allow the flame to extinguish. Because these are handmade cones, each has a different burning times.

Burning instruction: Prepare a heat-proof vessel, on a sturdy surface away from flammables and out of reach of children and animals. If you don't have a designated incense vessel, you may use any heat-proof ceramic or glass bowl with some sand, earth or ash. Light a piece of coal, and allow it to catch the heat completely, until the stage when it is fully covered with grey/whitish ash. Place the hot charcoal on top of the vessel or bowl with sand. Sprinkle a pinch of the loose incense on top of the hot charcoal, or place a single pastille. Enjoy the smoke and add more loose incense or pastille once the smoke has run its course.
