Fresh and bloody pine and spruce resin are part of my sylvan #samhain #incense which both strenthens and protects during the dark season #incenseblend #incenseresin #incenseherbs #vervain #mugwort #amber #pineresin #spruceresin #bloodresin #treeblood #forestscent #sylcan #forestspirits #forestcolors #wimmelpicture #wimmelbild https://www.instagram.com/p/BpIPSpkiY_D/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1py9vu72n5ydj

The last thing I fished out of my office's mail box - sweet gale or bog myrtle (Myrica gale) and an extra gift lip balm made with balsam fir! I love aromatic mail! Thanks to Carpenter's Herbal! #herbs #herbalgoodness #sweetgale #bogmyrtle #myricagale #gagelstrauch #incenseherbs #carpentersherbal #herbalism

This special herb is called wild rosemary (Ledum palustre), Sumpfporst in German. It has been brought to my attention by @occvltacrafts and this is the first time I am working with it. I find it smells very much like yerba santa. I am also pleased with the quality of the herb, which I bought online. It is part of my Winter Solstice/Northern Throne incense blend. #sumpfporst #ledumpalustre #wildrosemary #shamanicherbs #shamanicherbalism #driedherb #räucherkräuter #incenseherbs
