Divination Insence

[Lilacsky]

hi everyone, I was wondering if you guys use a divination insence, and if so which ones/herbs do you like to use with your readings??

Hi there,
Do you mean incense sticks?? i do burn little incense while reading for others as it clears negativity and makes the space more pure. And the smell kind of takes me into a trance and i can concentrate better on the querent. I mostly use lavender or chamouli.

I like to burn my own that I make..

Whoa lilacsky,
I didnt know that you can make your own incense. That sounds cool.......... )

Absolutely you can make your own incense. Alot of stores carry "empty" sticks, meaning no scent has been added. Use your favorite oil (or a mixture of a few to create a new scent) and add a few drops of it onto an empty incense stick. And voila! You've just made your own.

I definitely use incense during readings to clear my mind and attune myself with my spirit guides. I use frankincense and myrrh at the start and to close the reading I use camphor to clear the air and myself of any negative energies I may have picked up.

Frankincense is wonderful for tarot reading or any kind of meditation, but I mainly use incense sticks. My favourite is a blend called Pariloka (vanilla, sandalwood and vertivert). It smells wonderful without being overpowering.

Frankincense, myrrh and sandalwood are very spiritual smells. Very evocative. If you wish to clean your space, camphor and lemon do it greatly. To create a cozy place, some warm smells such as patchouli or benzoin are great. During the summer, sweet smells such a roeses (specially white roses), lavender and jasmine are wonderful.

Good luck

I have a few favourites- Nag Champa, Frankincense, and an incense cone called Radha's Devotion. Nag champa is usually my incense of choice during readings, and Radha's Devotion or Frankincense I usually use when meditating.
