Anointing ceremonies are present in several traditions. They represent a historic and sacred art, which bring in their wake countless teachings and reflections. Did you know that we can apply the precepts of the anointing in our daily lives? When combined with the subtle properties of essential oils, this practice can help us experience and nurture our spirituality more consciously and meaningfully.
To anoint means, in essence, to “touch with oil”. Traditionally, the act has always been associated with consecrations, tributes, celebrations, moments of gratitude, devotion and healing. Joni Keim & Ruah Bull define anointing as a spiritual blessing. It can be offered to ourselves, other people, places or even objects. In this reading, the authors invite us to bring the sacred into our daily lives, imprinting a new awareness on our routines and personal processes. Essential oils are used and suggested as tools to help visualize, amplify and strengthen an intention.
Designed to act as a guide, the information contained in “Oils for Aromatic Anointing” is intended to stimulate creativity, intuition and self-knowledge.
Regardless of religious belief or spiritual practices developed by the reader, the knowledge provided can be explored and adapted for the most diverse uses. They even dialogue with other disciplines, such as transpersonal psychology, holistic body therapies, energy therapies and even nursing practices. They can also be easily integrated into daily rituals, family ceremonies or individual meditations.
You will learn how to use essential oils to manifest intentions, strengthen purposes, celebrate moments or express gratitude. The book profiles 80 essential oils, including their spiritual teachings, effects on subtle anatomy, and suggested occasions for use. Instructions for creating or enhancing a sacred space are provided, along with detailed descriptions of eleven different categories of ceremonies, such as Rites of Passage, Healing, Gratitude, Love, and Devotion. There is also more information on energy centers and essential oil indications for coordinating with the seasons, solstices, equinoxes, archangels and phases of the moon.
