Juniper essential oil has a fresh, sweet, woody-balsamic aroma. It is a middle note.
The traditional empirical and anecdotal narrative for Juniper is its ability to clear and strengthen the nerves by purifying the
atmosphere to support the spirit in challenging situations.
Its ability to replenish tired spirits is inferred in the Bible when the exhausted Elijah slept under a Juniper tree, 1Kings 19:4
and 5. Egyptian, Greek, Roman and Arabian medics valued its properties. Juniper and Rosemary were burnt in French
hospital to clear the air during smallpox outbreak of 1870. The Tibetans and Native Americans have used Juniper together
with other herbs in ritual cleansing rituals.
Junipers nature is to remind us to acknowledge our personal power and that in gentleness there is strength.
Caution: Never apply undiluted essential oil to the skin. Avoid during pregnancy
