Aromatherapy for your Zodiac Sign
Aromatherapy is the practice of using scent, particularly essential oils for healing and emotional well-being. It’s an ancient practice that has been around for thousands of years and was used by ancient Egyptians. Essential oils can be used topically (when mixed with carrier oils like Jojoba, Almond and Grapeseed) and they can be diffused or sprayed into your environment.
There are essential oils connected to your zodiac or “sun” sign, the sign the Sun was in at the moment of your birth, connected to your creativity, self-expression and ego. Most people know their zodiac sign and it is a very important part of your natal chart, a visual representation of the universe at the moment of your birth.
Each zodiac sign is connected to an astrological element (fire, earth, air, water) and things that affect our 5 senses, like food, drinks, perfume, cologne and essential oils. Incorporating the use of essential oils into your daily wellness routine can help shift your overall mood and mindset, so you can tackle the day with confidence and inspiration.
