Magical Aromatherapy by Scott Cunningham combines the modern
science of aromatherapy with the ancient science of magical perfumery.
Together they make a powerful system that can improve your life and
bring you what you want. Already, over 170,000 people have found out
how useful this book can be. You can, too!
In these pages you'll discover how to use aromas from fresh and
dried herbs and essential oils to make changes in your life. You can
use them to bring you love, peace, protection, psychic awareness,
happiness, joy, and more. You'll discover that the dried seeds of celery can be used to
enhance psychic awareness or bring restful sleep. The fresh flowers of
gardenia can be used for peace, love, and spirituality. Honeysuckle can
be used for weight loss and prosperity. This book includes full
instructions on how to use these three and ninety-seven more aromatics!
If you do magical rituals, you'll also be thankful for information
such as the ruling planet and element for each of the herbs. Also given
are aromas of the seasons, lunar cycles, days of the week, and zodiacal
signs. You'll also learn how to make, store, and use essential oils.
Cunningham also includes addresses of essential oil distributors; fresh
and dried plant distributors; and aromatherapy organizations and
publications. There's even a glossary and a great annotated
bibliography, as well as a history of magical perfumery.
Even if you've never done any magic in your life, you can use this
book. For example, to attract love, "visualize yourself freely giving
and receiving it as you smell the crushed fruits" of the caraway. You
can repeat this several times a day, especially if you are worrying
about your current relationship.
And if you've been doing rituals for a long time, you will find
this book to be invaluable. The correspondences and information will
allow you to use aromatics to enhance any of your rituals. This is
truly a book anyone can use.
It is a well-established fact that certain smells summon certain
memories. The smell of popcorn makes you think of movies. The sweet
smell of icing on a cake makes you think of birthday parties.
Or perhaps you catch a smell of perfume and it reminds you of the
scent your mother wore when you were a child. Perhaps you feel sad
because you no longer feel that young or protected.
In short, scents effect your memories and your emotions. These can
effect your production of hormones, so the odors have an effect on you
mentally, physically, and emotionally.
The study of the effects scents have on you is called
aromatherapy. It is a relatively modern science, and one of the leaders
of this science, Robert Tisserand, wrote a forward to this book. But
there is also an older study, the use of scents in magic. This is known
as magical perfumery. Now, for the first time ever, one book combines
the ancient and the modern sciences into a clear and easy-to-use
system, Magical Aromatherapy. It was written by one of the most respected experts on the magical uses of herbs, Scott Cunningham.
In this book you will get an entire course and resource manual.
You'll learn the history of magical aromatherapy, including its use in
ancient Egypt, Sumer, Babylon, Rome, Greece, Hawaii, and among
Amerinds. You'll also use the techniques to get the aromas from the
plant to your nose, from just smelling the flowers to using a
nebulizer.
The most valuable resource is the list of 100 natural fresh herbs,
dried herbs, and essential oils used in magical aromatherapy. For each
one Cunningham gives the common name, the specific name, other names by
which the plant of essential oil is know, the part of the plant that is
used, the ruling planet, ruling element, the specific areas in which
the aroma affects changes (magical influences), and lore – including
historical, ritual, and magical information relating to the fragrance.
The first aromatic listed is the apple. You use the flowers for
love, peace, and happiness. The last one listed is ylang-ylang which
can be used for peace, sex, and love. It can calm "anger and all
negative emotional states, transforming such energy into more positive
manifestations." Cunningham reveals that "it is also a powerful, true
aphrodisiac, creating sexual desire."
You'll find magical aromatherapy purposes for such things as bay
(psychic awareness), cinnamon (physical energy), jasmine (love), onion
(courage), Orange (purification), tonka (money), and many more. You'll
also get sources of distributors, aromatherapy groups and
organizations, a glossary and lists of correspondences.
The information in this book can be used by itself to produce
magical effects. You can also use it to enhance any of your rituals.
You can literally find aromas for any purpose.

moving in the direction you want. Get a copy today and use it tonight.
