Hyssop Doesn’t Miss
Hyssop is one of my most favorite oils. She is gentle but commanding and very fierce. She is confident in her magic, which is banishing and purification. I use Hyssop anointing oil almost daily, especially in the middle of the day when I need an energy refresh. It is a great oil to use while traveling to clear your field of energy you may have picked up in the environment.
“Hyssop” comes from the Hebrew name for Hyssop, Ezov. Hyssop has been revered for thousands of years as a purifier of body and spirit. She is a very sacred herb used for cleansing, protection, and renewal. Purifying karma and decalcifying the pineal gland are other noted benefits. Hyssop very gently and quickly removes all blockages to the divine, including attachments and the evil eye. If it’s not meant to be in your energy field, Hyssop will kick it tf out. That’s why Hyssop oil has traditionally been used as an exorcism oil!
Hyssop is the appropriate herb for Aries season because Aries usually overlaps with Passover (aka Pesach, or Pescale if you’re Italian). Israelites used bunches of Hyssop dipped in blood to paint their doors during Passover. For that reason, Hyssop is associated with the blood. That’s also why Hyssop is associated with protection and liberation from lower energies.
How to Work with Hyssop
Use Hyssop when you are feeling burnt out. Hyssop, which supports digestion, helps to release emotional pain that we hold in our gut. Cleanse the energy of a house by using room spray, diffusing oil, or burning leaves. Hyssop is good for the lungs. Rub the oil (with carrier oil) in your palms and inhale the essence to improve respiration.
