AMATERASU : LET THE SUN-Shine IN
Lemongrass, Rosewood, Rosemary, Eucalyptus, Goldenrod & Jasmine

Amaterasu Omikami is considered to be a gentle harmonizing presence and symbol of the myriads of kami. She blesses everybody indiscriminately with serene light. One can say that Japan is one of the few countries in the world where modernization and great economic growth have been achieved while the traditional deities, with Amaterasu Omikami as spiritual center remain important in people's lives.

But Amaterasu Omikami does not have the character of the absolute God of Christianity. She is described as a symbol for the myriads of kami, and as the one who brought great harmony to heaven and earth.   Our ancestors lived with awe and respect towards the kami.Shinto, the indigenous religion of Japan, is based on these concepts of kami. The ancient Japanese believed in numerous kami, their multitude is expressed by the number eight million.

The basis of Shinto faith is the consciousness that nature and human beings are united firmly through the kami. This consciousness is expressed in the ritual forms of worshiping the kami. Among the many Shinto sanctuaries in Japan, Ise Jingu is the supreme and offers spiritual support for the Japanese in times of confusion. The kami of Ise Jingu is Amaterasu Omikmai, the supreme deity, who is not only the ancestor of the Imperial Family, but also the kami that gave rice to the people, as described in Japanese mythology.

 This sacred blend of Lemongrass, Rosewood, Rosemary, Eucalyptus, Goldenrod & Jasmine will bring joy;  it will anchor you and will help stay in trust because even after a period of harsh times, the light and the sun always come  back. It will help you breathe and take in the sun.

GAIA II, Mother Earth Goddess
 Laurel, Rosewood; Lavender, Juniper, Balsam Fir, ArborVitae

GAIA (or Gaea) was the primeval divinity of earth, one of the primal elements who first emerged at the dawn of creation, along with air, sea and sky. She was the great mother of all : the heavenly gods were descended from her union with Ouranos, the sky, the sea-gods from her union with Pontos, the sea, the Gigantes from her mating with  Tartaros, the hell-pit and mortal creatures were sprung or born from her earthy flesh.
In the ancient Greek cosmology earth was conceived as a flat disk encircled by the river Okeanos, and topped above by the solid dome of heaven and below by the great pit of Tartaros. She herself supported the sea and mountains upon her breast.

Gaia appears in the character of a divine being as early as the Homeric poems, for we read in the Iliad (iii. 104) that black sheep were sacrificed to her, and that she was invoked by persons taking oaths.
Gaia: "land" or "earth", from the Ancient Greek Γαîα; also Gaea or Ge (Modern Greek Γ) is the primal Greek goddess personifying the Earth. She is considered a Mother Goddess or Great Goddess. Her equivalent in the Roman pantheon was Terra.

The mythological name was revived in 1969 by James Lovelock, in Gaia: A New Look at Life on Earth, where he proposes that living organisms and inorganic material are part of a dynamic system that shapes the Earth's biosphere, and maintains the Earth as a fit environment for life.  Further books by Lovelock and others popularized the Gaia Hypothesis, which was widely embraced and passed into common usage as part of the heightened awareness of planetary vulnerability of the 1990s.

With this blend, you can spiritually protect and love the earth; meditate for mother Earth..

KWAN YIN: THE GODDESS OF COMPASSION AND GENTLENESS,
 Lavender,  Petitgrain, Laurel, Clary Sage and Sandalwood

This blend opens you to compassion first, and then enables you to reach out to others. ---

In the Buddhist tradition, Kwan Yin is one of the most respected deities. Also known as Quan Yin, Kannon (Japan), and Kanin (Bali), she is the embodiment of compassionate, loving kindness. Quan means to inquire or look deeply into, Shi means the world of people, or generations, Yin means cries.
As the sublime Goddess of Mercy whose beauty, grace and compassion have come to represent the ideal of womanhood in the East, she is often shown pouring a stream of healing water.  With this water, devotees and all living things are blessed with physical and spiritual peace. She holds a sheaf of ripe rice or a bowl of rice seed as a metaphor for fertility and sustenance. The dragon, an ancient symbol for high spirituality, wisdom, strength, and divine powers of transformation, is a common motif found in combination with this Goddess.

As a true Enlightened One, or Bodhisattva, Kwan Yin vowed to remain in the earthly realms and not enter the heavenly worlds until all other living things had completed their own enlightenment and thus become liberated from the pain-filled cycle of birth, death, and rebirth. There are numerous legends that recount the miracles which she performed to help those who called on her, women especially, and they convey the idea of an enlightened being who embodies the attributes of an all pervasive, all consuming, unwavering loving compassion who is accessible to everyone. Kwan Yin counsels us by her actions to cultivate within ourselves those particular refined qualities that all beings are said to naturally possess in some vestigial form.

MARY -  Divine Mother Goddess:

Lavender, Rosemary, Laurel , Marjoram,  Bulgarian Rose, Lemongrass

 

She was the bearer of the energy of the Divine Mother Goddess, and in serving her,  the Male would find his path to Divinity by embracing, through her Purity and Beauty, the Divine Feminine within himself.
In the same way, each one serving the principles of Beauty and Grace, learns to walk the creative path of the Divine Feminine, and to access the Golden Flame of Ascended Love that united the Divine Feminine with the Divine Masculine in the Heart of God.
She is the Beloved Mother who guides us on the Divine Path to Spiritual Oneness with Source through service to the Principle of  the Divine Feminine or the Mother Aspect of God.

As a Divine Mother element of Source, she shows a path of spiritual service to the Light of God within our hearts. As a collective, you will learn to serve Beauty and Truth and Love, and through this service to integrate the gentle,  loving and supportive energies of the Mother aspect of Source into our society once again. This will enable us to create support and abundance for all.

Part of the process of Ascension has been to once again empower the Feminine so that the  Creative Power of the Mother God can once again be felt by all. And to  empower the Masculine, so that men can once again claim their  gentleness and beauty, and to be not only warriors but also poets and troubadours of the Beloved.

MARY MAGDALEN OINTMENT TO OPEN THE HEART

Canadian Tsuga, White Spruce, Nard, White Angelica, Frankincense, Neroli and Hyssop

 

Mary of Magdala was named after a town on the shore of the Sea of Galilee. The root of the name "Magdalene" is the Hebrew word "migdal," which means "tower," "fortress," or "stronghold.
Mary Magdalen appears in the four canonical Christian gospels. She is the one who annointed Jesus with a very precious aromatic essence of spikeNARD.   She is also important to the Gnostics but remains a subject of ongoing debate.

According to Tom Kenyon –who channeled The Madgalen Manuscript— and Daniel Meurois who wrote a book on her life from the Akashic Records, she was a High Initiate of the Temple of Isis. Her relationship with Yeshua represented the union of the Divine Feminine and Masculine through which all creation transpires, as well as redemption through divine illumination. On an emotional level, this sacred marriage means the union of the male and female aspects of our psyche through which our personality is brought into a harmonious manifestation where our true intelligence and creativity become expressed.

It was important then to use aromatic essences to heal the body and the spirit. NARD (nardostachys jatamansi) is a small aromatic plant identified with the biblical NARD mentioned in the song of Solomon. “While the king setteth at his table my spikenard sendeth forth the smell thereof”. 1:12

 

Thisl blend helps strengthen the alchemy between matter and spirit and can assist you go through difficult times with courage and serenity.  NARD reveals the secret path to the seeker who is focused and sets an intention to live and serve with an open heart.

NEFERTITI  The Symbol of Beauty for Egypt
Basil, Mandarin, Geranium Egypt, Ylang-Ylang, and Bulgarian Rose

Nefertiti was Queen of Egypt, wife of King Akhenaton (formerly Amenhotep IV; reigned c. 1353–36 BC), and mother-in-law of the Pharaoh Tutankhamun Her name roughly translates to "the beautiful one has come". She also shares her name with a type of elongated gold bead that she was often portrayed as wearing, known as "nefer" beads. Famed throughout the ancient world for her outstanding beauty, Nefertiti remains the one of the most well known Queen of Egypt.

She was made famous by her painted limestone bust, now in Berlin's Egyptian Museum,  seen from two different angles. The technique which begins with a carved piece of limestone, requires the stone core to be first plastered and then richly painted. Everything is sculpted to perfection: flesh tones on the face give the bust life.  Her full lips are enhanced by a bold red.  Her graceful elongated neck balances the tall, flat-top crown which adorns her sleek head. The vibrant colors of her necklace and crown contrast the yellow-brown of her smooth skin. Because this remarkable sculpture is still in existence, it is no wonder why Nefertiti remains 'The Most Beautiful Woman in the World.
This blend is to honor the beauty in us, to accept our beauty at each step of our life. Beauty belongs to life, so does change.  It is not fixed. 
Application: Inhale then apply as a perfume.

PACHAMAMA, The Inca Goddess of the Earth
White Spruce, White Pine, White Angelica, Frankincense, Nard

 White Spruce, White Pine; White Angelica; Frankincense; Nard,       

To the pre-Incan people of Peru and Bolivia, Pachamama (pronounced pah'cha-ma-ma), or Mamapacha, is the Earth, worshipped in her many forms: the tilled fields, her mountains seen as breasts, the flowing rivers as her milk. To ensure good harvests, corn meal is sprinkled at planting and rituals celebrating her are performed. When people fail to honor her, this dragon Goddess sends earthquakes as a reminder.
A more literal translation would be "Mother Universe"(in Aymara and Quechua mama = mother / pacha = world, space-time or the universe). Pachamama and Inti (her husband) are the most benevolent deities and are worshiped in parts of the Andean mountain ranges, stretching from present day Ecuador to Chile and Argentina. Llamas are sacrificed to her. After conquest by Catholic Spain her image was masked by the Virgin Mary, behind whom she is invoked and worshiped in the Indian ritual.
Pachamama waits for you with open arms. It is time to open to her embrace. Now is the time to heal and remember your holiness, remember yourself as a sacred being. Do you feel a connection with Earth Mother as a living entity?  Are you in the middle of some emotional pain that nothing seems to ease? Do you eat food and drink water without giving thanks to the earth? Are you looking for answers to questions? Do you spend time in nature opening to the earth and her vital energies? Opening to Pachamama can occur anyplace. You can commune with her in a city park, your own backyard, some remote forest, jungle, or desert. The Goddess says that healing is nurtured when you open to her.
Since Pachamama is a "good mother", people usually toast to her honor before every meeting or festivity, in some regions by spilling a small amount of chicha on the floor, before drinking the rest. This toast is called "challa" and it’s made almost everyday.

Personal Experience: “It is very calming. It feels like I am making a dow  –for the Earth. I have a sense that I can do anything I need effortlessly. I am at one with greatness.  I feel being embraced by a mother’s hug!!” S.T.

Application: Put 3 drops in your hands, rub them and touch your heart and then the 2 minor heart chakras, below shoulders, those points you touch when one makes the sign of the cross.

TARA, Goddess of Peace and Abundance
Eucalyptus, Palmarosa, Hyssop, Goldenrod, Myrrh & Frankincense

Goddess Tara is probably the oldest goddess who is still worshipped extensively in modern times. Tara originated as a Hindu goddess, the Mother Creator, representing the eternal life force that fuels all life.  There are many embodiments of Tara, but the best known are the White Tara and the Green Tara. The peaceful, compassionate White Tara gently protects and brings long life and peace. The more dynamic goddess, Green Tara is the "Mother Earth", and a fierce goddess who overcomes obstacles, and saves us from physical and spiritual danger.
In Sanskrit, the name Tara means Star, but she was also called She Who Brings Forth Life, The Great Compassionate Mother, and The Embodiment of Wisdom, and the Great Protectress.  Adopted by Buddhism, she become the most widely revered deity in the Tibetan pantheon.   In Buddhist tradition, Tara is actually much greater than a goddess -- she is a female Buddha, an enlightened one was has attained the highest wisdom, capability and compassion. . . one who can take human form and who remains in oneness with the every living thing.  In the legends of Tibet where the worship of the Goddess Tara is still practiced in the Buddhist tradition, it is told that the goddess Tara is the feminine counterpart of the Avalokitesvara, the Buddha who is reincarnated as the Dalai Lama.

Goddess Tara in her many incarnations has many gifts to share with contemporary women. Tara  embodies  the feminine strengths of great caring and compassion, the ability to endure stressful and even terrifying moments, the acts of creation, and the source of sustenance and protection.  Refugees fleeing the horrors of the occupation of Tibet by the Chinese armies recounted numerous stories of the Green Tara that protected them during their torture and guided their flight to freedom.   In other of her forms, such as the White Tara, she embodied inner peace and spiritual acceptance. She symbolizes purity and is thought to be part of every good and virtuous woman.

VENUS, the Goddess of love and beauty
 Ylang-Ylang, Mandarin, Grapefruit, OrangeJasmine, Cinnamon Bark.

She was a major Roman goddess, the equivalent of the Greek goddess Aphrodite who played a key role in many Roman religious festivals and myths. Venus is also a nature goddess, associated with the arrival of Spring. She is the bringer of joy to gods and humans.
During the Renaissance  in Europe, Venus serves as inspiration to many great works of art, including the statue of Venus De Milo now in the Louvre and The Birth of Venus, by Botticelli.  As a "classical" figure for whom nudity was her natural state, it was socially acceptable to depict her unclothed. As the goddess of sexual healing, a degree of erotic beauty in her presentation was justified.

It is the Goddess Venus who inspires people to love one another and to celebrate the rites of marriage. She is also associated with the rites of  Spring and Fertility. Though there are many other great Goddesses associated with Love, Venus reigns as the supreme Goddess of Love. 

Venus rules your social attitudes and behavior, and your aesthetic tastes and inclinations.  Venus indicates your values. It describes romance, marriage and other partnerships, capacity for humor, and the pursuit of pleasure. Ylang-Ylang, rose and cardamom are associated with her and archaeologists have found the world’s oldest essential oils factory in Cyprus, her island!
