What You Receive

Sacred Reflection prayer oil, in a 10 ml roller bottle. Crafted with cedarwood essential oil and organic rosemary, with a subtle scent meant for prayer and reflection rather than all-day wear.

Origin & Lore

Cedar is the wood of temples, said in the Hebrew Bible to have lined Solomon’s Temple, and rosemary has been the herb of memory since the Greeks wore it while studying. Together they make a blend for reflection, clear thought and remembering what matters in prayer.

“There’s rosemary, that’s for remembrance,” says Ophelia in Hamlet, repeating a belief already old in Shakespeare’s day.

Students in ancient Greece were said to wear rosemary garlands to help their memory, and rosemary was carried at both weddings and funerals in England as a herb of remembrance.

Cedar of Lebanon was the prestige timber of the ancient Near East, recorded in Mesopotamian and Egyptian sources as well as in the Bible’s account of the Temple.
