Rose essential oil

Essential oil of the day: Rose -  is very effective in all levels of life. Mind, body, spirit. Rose has a depth that touches the soul. It is an oil for love, passion, confidence, forgiveness and cooperation. It spiritually uplifts, and has ability to heal emotional wounds. It’s the oil for the heart chakra which is the love center; it soothes despair, anger and consoles a grieving heart. Often also associated with the sacral chakra for creativity and passion, after all Rose is classified as an gentle aphrodisiac essential oil. 

Rose is a very complex essential oil containing more than 300 compounds and even more that are still not identified. Highly adulterated and often synthetically made. Rose essential oil extremely expensive.  The hand picked petals are collected only during a certain time of the day.  According to M. Grieve who wrote ‘A modern herbal’, 1931, it takes 4000kg (8818 lbs) of these hand picked petals to yield 1kg ( 2lbs 3oz) of essential oil.

Rose essential oil blends well with sandalwood, lemon, coriander, frankincense, neroli and ginger.  My personal favorite is a simple blend of rose and sandalwood…hmmmmmmm
