The Spiritual Significance
Myrrh is among the oldest sacred substances known to humankind. Burned in the temples of Egypt, carried in funeral rites, and named alongside frankincense as a gift fit for the divine, its resin has long marked the boundary between the ordinary and the holy. In Scott Cunningham's herbal it is ruled by the Moon and the element of Water, counted among the materials of protection, purification, and the deepening of spiritual connection.
An oil named for myrrh carries that consecrating, protective character. Dress and burn a candle to cleanse and sanctify a space, anoint a ritual tool or altar to set it apart, or mark a working where you wish to call in the sacred and guard what is holy. Myrrh is also a resin of mourning and the underworld, fitting for ancestor work and solemn rites. As with all conjure, the oil focuses your intention; the sanctity is one you tend. It draws on folk and temple practice in the Wiccan and eclectic tradition.
