  2. If I were a wise man

    Today I was a wise man. A wise man in a living nativity. Part dress-up; part improv – talking to people as they pass through, teaching them about the three gifts (gold, frankincense, and myrrh), where the two non-obvious ones come from, and what they mean.

    It was a lot of fun. I am glad I was roped into it now.

  6. Just had a moment of panic. I smelt what appeared to be burning polythene in the office.

    Turns out one of the locals had been waving around a lit frankincense burner.

    I actually hate the stuff as the smell makes me feel nauseous.

  8. How the west’s wellness industry is driving Ethiopia’s #frankincense trees towards extinction - theguardian.com/environment/20 "As rich westerners fuel demand for the ancient fragrance, a lucrative race for the resin is killing the trees but leaving little of the trade’s profit for those gathering it"

  9. The Frankincense trade has a history going back over 6,000 years. It was used in religious ceremonies as a symbol of prayers rising to Heaven, while the ancient Egyptians also used it for embalming. A number of flasks of frankincense oil were found in Tutenkhamen's tomb, and when they were opened, the scent was still strong.

  10. It's amazing how age changes the character of homemade natural #incense. Just lit up one of the last remaining sticks from a dragon's blood & cinnamon batch I made months ago. I was initially quite disappointed with them, but the dragon's blood #resin is coming through very clearly now. Not many people like the scent of real dragon's blood resin, but I love it, especially brightened up with some citrusy Hojari #Frankincense.

  11. Got #Frankincense and #Myrrh incense on. Smells like church at Christmas. Let us pray Ashes to ashes, dust to dust.🎄🕯️ 🙏

  12. I took this photo, somewhat grudgingly, much earlier in the day: yes, the hoarfrost, all over the garden, was pretty - but I'm so done with winter and its relentless white-washing of every bloody thing, that, even if he came bearing a gift of frankincense, I would tell Casper The Friendly Ghost to go boil his head.

  13. For thousands of years, #Tree #Resins known as #Frankincense (white/milky) & #Myrrh (reddish) were used to make #Sweet #Perfume, Incense, & #Medicine.

    The #Trees are #Native to #Arabia & NE #Africa.

    To #Collect the resins, the #Bark is cut, which allows the #Essence to seep out & dry into #Crystals.

    #Nomads sold the #Prized #Aromatics, which were as #Precious as #Gold, #Gems, or #Spices.

  18. Having myself experienced dangerous situations for #Investigative stories, I commend #ViceNews reporter #HindHassan & her team. A must watch if you care about #humanrights, #fairtrade the #wellbeing of #trees and our #planet. “Inside the #wellness industry’s controversial supply chains.” 👉🏼youtu.be/5wEJvx_L0Ok #frankincense #Somaliland #UnitedStates #Doterra #essentialoils #exploitation

  19. @godpod Frankly, anything but #Myrrh. What a stupid gift for a baby as it was used to treat Leprosy, Syphilis and for Embalming?? What kind of message are they sending here?

    Not that #Frankincense is much better. Why would a Baby need an aromatic resin used in incense and perfumes?

    Gold is always good though. A timeless gift and much needed by parents who are forced to give birth in a barn.

    So I'm thinking we should call them the one wise guy and his two friends.

  20. Researchers @[email protected] and @[email protected] have clarified the molecular mechanism behind the anti-inflammatory effect of a natural product from #frankincense resin. The findings of this recent study can now be used to develop new potential anti-inflammatory drugs.
