Bog Oak, Gold Leaf Incense bundle

Bog Oak and Gold Leaf Incense Holder and incense pack.

Bog oak is an exceptionally rare naturally stained wood created from the trunks of trees that lived 2,500 to 5,000 years ago beautifully aged Irish bog oak. One of the most sacred trees, the Oak was seen by our Irish ancestors to have possessed magical properties. Its roots pierced the underground realms of the Otherworld, whilst its branches reached high into the heavens. The deeper magic of this petrified bog wood.
Travel back in time ten million years ago in Ancient Ireland – a time of wild grasslands and untouched earth. Envision an expansive swamp stretching itself wide across the land, alive with plantlife and creatures, quiet and tranquil. This is where bog oak comes from – this ancient, uninhabited place of stillness and wisdom. This material is literally a snapshot in time, an immortal imprint of the algae, trees, vegetation, and swamp critters that inhabited this bog millions of years ago.

I recommend using your incense holder and incense in meditation, or in your home, whenever you’re in need of a moment of stillness or a gentle yet potent dose of healing Earth medicine. Close your eyes and breathe deeply. With every inhale and exhale, feel yourself being drawn inward toward your sacred center, the part of you that resonates in harmony with the center of the earth. Feel yourself being filled with the understanding that you and Gaia are one and the same – that you are meant to hold her as she holds you. Let it instill you with courage and trust, and remind you of the divine role that you are to play on this planet.
