Cedarwood Essential Oil 100% Pure

Description

Cedarwood essential oil is a warm, woodsy aroma that evokes the deep calm of ancient forests. Steam-distilled from the heartwood of the majestic cedar tree, this golden-amber oil brings grounding stability, promotes respiratory comfort, and supports clear, healthy skin. Revered in traditional medicine and sacred rituals for millennia, Cedarwood’s gentle yet powerful scent anchors the mind and soothes the spirit.

Benefits & Uses

• Grounding and calming – Eases anxiety, tension, and scattered thoughts

• Supports respiratory health – Opens airways and promotes deep, steady breathing

• Soothes the skin and scalp – Helpful for acne, dandruff, and irritation

• Repels insects naturally – Effective in home sprays and outdoor blends

• Promotes restful sleep – Calms the mind and nervous system

• Supports meditation and focus – Encourages presence, strength, and inner stillness

Active Components & How They Work

Cedarwood essential oil contains powerful sesquiterpenes and other compounds that provide therapeutic action:

• Cedrol – Calming, sedative effects; supports emotional balance and sleep

• Alpha- and Beta-Himachalene – Anti-inflammatory and antifungal properties; support skin and respiratory health

• Atlantone (in some species) – Offers grounding, centering effects and contributes to skin-regenerating actions

These compounds help Cedarwood act as a nervous system soother, respiratory decongestant, and skin purifier, all while offering an aroma that is richly centering and stable.

Energetic, Spiritual & Symbolic Properties

• Chakras: Root and Third Eye – grounding, intuition, inner security

• Color Correspondence: Deep Brown and Indigo – stability, wisdom, protection

• Planetary Influence: Saturn and Jupiter – structure, discipline, expansion

Energetically, Cedarwood offers protection, grounding, and mental clarity. It has long been used in spiritual and religious practices for cleansing spaces and anchoring meditation. Cedarwood supports the release of fear and promotes trust in one’s inner wisdom.
