Cypress Essential Oil Wild Melilou

DescriptionEnergetic Properties: Cypress Essential Oil is an ideal oil to help us tune into and find a healthy masculine resonance. Its vertical energy runs from the base chakra up to the crown chakra, giving a feeling of integrity and structure. This helps us to make decisions and feel supported and focused in life. I left it next to my bed recently and in the morning, I realized that I could hear the loving, guiding voice of my inner masculine. It was quite a revelation as I had been working on healing my wounded masculine for years.Cypress oil is also associated with grief. The woodland god Silvanus, the divine companion of Cyparissus accidentally killed a stag, Cyparissus was consumed by grief and so Silvanus turned him into a tree and forever after carried a branch of cypress with him as a symbol of mourning.  We all need to honor the grief we are feeling collectively in the world today, the grief that comes from seeing the beautiful natural world being destroyed but we also need support for this deep grief, and this is where cypress can be very helpful. It stops us crumbling and giving up by supporting us at a very profound level with an ancient wisdom that can be felt like a deep hum connecting us to ourselves and the earth.Sempervirens, the second part of the botanical name means ‘ever living’ and cypress trees have been planted in cemeteries in Europe as a symbol of eternal life.Used for grief and ancestral work.Smell: Fresh, woody and herbaceous, conifer note, lemony.Perfumery Notes: Middle NoteMain Chemical Constituents: α-pinene, δ-3-carene, limonene, terpinolene, acétate de bornyle, cédrol (1)Adulteration and quality: We are confident that our distiller in France does not adulterate his essential oils.Citations:https://www.mdpi.com/2223-7747/12/5/1097
