Though frankincense and myrrh tend to bring up certain religious connotations to the western mind, they have been in active use in magical incenses, ritual tools, and for their healing properties since at least 1500bc. I have used it successfully as a mouthwash and cleanser, although my favorite use is as an incense in conjunction with frankincense. I find Myrrh energetically elevating. Myrrh is known for: Protection, purification, healing, magical potency, and its use as a sacred tool in many cultures. 1 oz.
