Dear All,
Incense is not only fun to burn, it’s also great fun to make yourself.
For a nice incense for Lughnasadh, mix equal parts (1 teaspoon) of:
- Heather (finely chopped) or Sunflower petals (finely chopped)
- Marigold (finely chopped)
- Bergamot (oil) (finely chopped or a few drops of oil)
- Sweet almonds (very finely chopped or ground) or dragon’s blood resin
- Oats (very finely chopped or ground)
- Rosemary (finely chopped)
- Laurel (finely chopped) (takes away nasty energy and brings back cheerful)
- Lavender (finely chopped) or Hollyhock (finely chopped)
- Juniper (good cleaner)
With this incense you can cleanse your house during Lughnasadh. It is good to energetically cleanse your home on a regular basis. This way old energies disappears and there is room for new energies.
Sometimes you can have such a heavy energy or atmosphere in your home. And, no matter what you do, opening windows, dusting, it won’t disappear. Then cleanse your house with incense and notice the difference.
I wish you a beautiful and abundant Lughnasadh♥
With love,

Interesting recipe. How do the almonds smell when burned?

Nearly a year later, I am so sorry! I totally overlooked somehow your reaction. When I use almond in incense, I grind it, so it is very tiny. Together with the herbs, it smells quite nice. At least, I think so. Have you tried it?
