Germanic Incense Blends
Ancient Germanic tribes were nature-loving people for whom incense rituals were a natural part of their lives. Most of what we can learn today about this past culture is based on myths and excavations. For example, many archaeological excavations have uncovered so-called ‘incense cakes’. These are clumps of resin and plant remains indicating incense substances used. Well combined with mythological, logical and intuitive knowledge, this results in a rich treasure of ‘Germanic knowledge’, which we aim to revive with our Germanic Incense Blends. As the symbol for this incense series, Christian Rätsch has chosen the Shaman God Wotan in his eagle form.
‘The eagle is the classic shaman bird. Wotan can assume the form of an eagle and fly into other realities. He is the god who strives for knowledge; he wants to know everything, he wants knowledge. Wotan is the master of the art of wizardry. The art of wizardry is what we call Shamanism.’ from: Christian Rätsch - The Sacred Grove.

World Tree
World TreeThe oak as world tree lends this blend a special warm and powerful note. For ancient Germanic tribes, the World Tree is the centre of the cosmos and provides orientation, power and pathways to other worlds.Ingredients: Pine Resin, Juniper, Verbena, Oak Bark, GalangalContents of glass jars: 60mlGermanische RäucherungenDie alten Germanen waren naturverbundene Menschen, für die Räucherrituale ein ganz natürlicher Bestandteil ihres Lebens waren. Das meiste, was wir von dieser, unserer vergangenen Kultur, heute in Erfahrung bringen können, basiert auf Mythen und Ausgrabungen. So hat man bei vielen archäologischen Grabungen sogenannte "Räucherkuchen" gefunden. Dies sind Verklumpungen von Harzen und Pflanzenüberresten, die auf die verwendeten Räucherstoffe schließen lassen. Gut kombiniert mit mythologischem, logischem und intuitiven Wissen ergibt sich daraus ein reicher Schatz an "Germanenwissen", den wir mit unseren Germanischen Räucherungen wieder aufleben lassen möchten. Als Symbol für diese Räucherserie hat Christian Rätsch den Schamanengott Wotan in seiner Adlergestalt ausgewählt. "Der Adler ist der klassische Schamanenvogel. Wotan kann die Gestalt eines Adlers annehmen und in andere Wirklichkeiten fliegen. Er ist der Gott, der nach Wissen strebt; er will alles wissen, er will das Wissen. Wotan ist der Meister der Zauberkunst. Mit Zauberkunst bezeichnen wir den Schamanismus." aus: Christian Rätsch - Der Heilige Hain.
