Dragon's Blood is a deep red tree resin, long prized in folk magic and ceremony for protection, cleansing, and adding strength to a working. Burned as incense, it lends a warm, resinous, grounding smoke often reached for to guard a space, clear unwanted energy, and lend weight to an offering or petition. Mayan Temple, from the Escential Essences line, sets that Dragon's Blood character alongside earthy patchouli and a touch of rose, for a ceremonial scent that grounds and protects. The incense does not act on its own; it shifts the air and helps you settle into your own intention. Light it to ward and cleanse a space, to mark an offering, or to bring a grounded, protective tone to ritual.

1. Light the tip. Hold a flame to the coated end until it catches, then gently blow it out so the tip glows and releases a steady ribbon of smoke.
2. Set it in a holder. Rest the plain end in an incense burner or ash catcher on a heat-safe surface that will catch the falling ash.
3. Set your intention. As the scent fills the room, name the protection or offering you are setting and let the smoke carry it.
4. Burn it safely. Burn in a ventilated space away from anything flammable, keep it clear of curtains and drafts, and never leave burning incense unattended.
