All things Lavender

Lavender is probably the most popular essential oil and deservedly so. It has antifungal and healing qualities and the scent can lull you to a relaxing sleep. Smells are evocative and Lavender is a reminder of bye-gone times for some, yet historically it was a powerful aphrodisiac ( ask Cleopatra and the Queen of Sheba).

The variety called Spike-nard was the pungent perfume that a woman poured over the feet of Jesus before drying them with her hair. Lavender played a powerful role in the Bible. It always had a role in religious ceremonies as it was believed to calm the mind and nourish the soul.
