A Very Special Wood
‘Palo Santo Wood’ is widely used in Peru and Ecuador as a spiritual cleanser in the same way sage is used in North America and copal is used in Mexico.
She has a very powerful plant spirit that cleanses “heavy energy” and has been used in South America in many of the same ways as Frankincense has been used in the Middle East as a connection to the sacred. She is used in an incense form to cleanse any area where ceremonies are to be performed and along with the Coca leaf is regarded as one of the most sacred plant spirits of this part of South America. She is also used for healing, meditation, spiritual connection and aura cleansing.
