Well I thought first I would start this off by saying there are a lot of different types of incense out there. Many different brands as well as scents. Incense has plenty of uses. They can be used to add a pleasant scent to the room, calm your mind, cleanse spaces and objects or even set the mood during a spell or encantation. I use Liquidblue incense. They have many scents there and types. I use the ones found in the mystical/fantasy section. So now you know what I use. What do you use??

My mom is very very allergic to strong smells so I don't use incense very often. I do really love Ylang Ylang incense and of course dragon's blood (but who doesn't Very Happy

)

We use many types of incense for our rituals, stick and powder. I guess that my personal favorite is what E and I harvest from cedars and white pines. Frankinsense, Myrrh, Copal and Amber are all pine saps, we just harvest and blend our own.

Wow. That's pretty impressive Ari! I didn't even know you could make your own! Very cool though!

We collect many things for incenses. Dry pine sap, lavendar blooms, juniper berries... some beautiful incense mixes can be made without a trip to the metaphysical shop. If you go online and look, you can find out how to make your own incense sticks and cones, and there are a lot of great mixtures out there also.

Wow, I will definitely look into this Ari! It can get expensive having to go buy incense all the time! Maybe I can go ahead and find something my parents can stand the smell of for once!

Well, with me, it really bepends on my mood, and what I'm trying to do. When I'm working on my QBL studdies, I will use something that resonates with the Sephoroth that I'm working with. When I'm using the "Ritual of the Rose Cross", I use rose (duh). For clearing an area, or for more Shamainic work, Sage can't be beat. For most everything else, I use Frankensense, Myrrh, Ceaderwood, and Sandelwood. There was a brand that I really enjoied usuing, but the place that I found it closed, and I haven't been able to find it since.

I can't be in a small confined space with incense (such as a bathroom). I am allergic to it, however, I can be around it so long as the room is big enough. (if it's burning on one side of the living room, i can be on the opposite side and be fine........ BUT if it's in the center of the living room, I can't be in there for more than a few moments before my nose starts burning and my eyes start watering, etc)
