astrological correspondences:

    Astrological planet: Sun

magickal correspondences and uses:

    Perfumes: Frankincense perfume corresponds with sunday and is a good perfume for sundays.

    Perfumes: Frankincense perfume corresponds with wednesday and is a good perfume for wednesdays.

    Incense: See incense sticks below.

    Gender: masculine (traditional western European magickal gender)

    Solar spells: Frankincense (as herb or essential oil) may be used in as an ingredient or substitute for magick spells and formulas related to solar matters (healing, illumination, magickal power, physical energy, protection, success, and putting an end to legal matters). Be careful about substitutions for preparations that will be ingested or come in contact with the skin. These substitutions do not apply to medical uses. See the article on the Sun for a list of herbal substitutes for frankincense.

    Using essential oils: Essential oils are just too concentrated and too expensve to use without dilution. If you purchase pure essential oil from a source such as Mountain Rose, you will want to place just a drop or two into a neutral carrier vegetable oil or jojoba. This conservation is typical of the use of essential oils in spells and other magick. It is wise to test a bit of any essential oil on your inner wrist before use. If any irritation occurs, do not use the essential oil. Keep essential oils out of reach of children and pets and away from heat and light. See the article on essential oils for detailed information on how to mix and use essential oils.


Magical Uses
(the tears, or resin, are used) The word “tears” comes from the tears of sap created when a frankincense tree is cut. This resin can be burned as incense and will purify an area. Use in pillows for spiritual dreams, psychic encounters, religious experiences or to help with deep breathing. A protective herb. Perfect for use in exorcism. Removes negative energies. Consecration, exorcism, protection, purification, spirituality.
