Frankincense is one of the oldest documented magical resins–it’s been traded in northern Africa and parts of the Arab world for nearly five thousand years. Frankincense is mentioned several times in the Old Testament. Jewish rabbis used consecrated frankincense in ritual. Back in 2008, researchers completed a study on the impact of frankincense on depression and anxiety. Pharmacologists at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem said evidence indicates that the aroma of frankincense might help regulate emotions such as anxiety and depression.

 In modern magical traditions, frankincense is often used as a purifier – burn the resin to cleanse a sacred space. Because it is believed that the vibrational energies of frankincense are particularly powerful, many people mix frankincense with other herbs to give them a magical boost.Many people find that it makes a perfect incense to use during meditation, energy work, or chakra exercises such as opening the 3rd eye. In some belief systems, frankincense is associated with good fortune in business–carry a few bits of resin in your pocket when you go to a business meeting or interview. In some traditions of Hoodoo and rootwork, frankincense is used to anoint petitions, and is said to give the other magical herbs in the working a boost.
