Frankincense, also known as Olibanum, is believed to mean “oil from Lebanon.” The word “Frankincense” comes from the Old French words “franc encens,” where “franc” means high quality or pure, and “encens” means incense. The harvesting method, where incisions are made in the tree, causing resin to excrete from the tree known as tears, has remained unchanged for thousands of years. Carterii species is thought to be the same as the sacra species and is classed as a near-threatened species. Careful selection of suppliers is essential to ensure ethical harvesting.
Energetic Effects
Frankincense, with a historical use for religious and spiritual purposes, is believed to be both grounding and etheric simultaneously. It is considered an excellent meditation tool that assists in focusing the mind, used in ritual work for purification and cleansing, and it’s derived from the word “Franc,” meaning pure.
