| Mirra Peru (Myrrha) |
|
| (styrax weberbaueri) |
|
Origin: Peru
Other names: Peruvian Myrrh
Uses: Purification, scrying of images, calming of emotions
Associations: Moon, Water
Aroma: Very similar to Myrrh and Opoponax, but without the latex background. Very calm, relaxing and full, with a touch of mellon or cherry. It burns just like Myrrh and Opoponax - it smoulders and chars rather than melts.
Form: Resin pieces
This resin is a bit of a mystery for us. It comes directly from Peru, where it is called Peruvian Myrrh (or Myrrha) and they give the botanical name Commiphora Myrrha. Others say that this is Styrax Weberbaueri, a distant relative of the Myrrh from Africa that now grows in Peru. It does smell somewhat like the various Myrrhs from the Middle East and Africa, and it burns in a similar fashion to those Myrrhs, but the color and shape of the pieces are totally different.
We will continue to look for more information on this intriguing and wonderful resin. |
