With love and care I share this oil in hopes of giving people such a well rounded topical “alternative” to what is available at pharmacies. I carefully and prayerfully double infused organic calendula pedals in organic olive oil for one moon cycle. After the moon cycle I strained the calendula out and added another batch of herbs in the same oil. The result is more depth and a more powerful acting healer. As it requires a lot of herbs this is not done unless it says “double infused”.
The knowledge of the medicinal effects of calendula were known and written about as far back in history as the time of the ancient Egyptians. Going back that far in history, this plant gives me a deep sense of having always been a powerful mothering plant, always ready to come to the aid of all the issues of a hurting child. It is a great oil to have around for children and adults alike and is especially great for mothers at any stage. I always like to think of the words calendar, and doula when I hear calendula, in this way I can see her as a timely and loving midwife.
Calendula is completely non-toxic even for infants and is good for treating nearly every sort of skin disorder. As a powerful anti-oxidant, it promotes skin healing and cell regeneration while improving the blood flow to the inflicted area and increasing tissue regeneration. Being a powerful antiseptic and anti-inflammatory it also refreshes and regenerates the skin. The oil can be used as a lotion or massage oil and it is als safe to be applied around the eyes.
Uses: a massage balm for sore muscles, inflammation, achy joints, bruises, burns, cuts, wounds, scrapes, dry skin, dry acne conditions, eczema, psoriasis, dermatitis, ring worm, diaper rash, infections, wrinkles, preventing scarring, insect stings and bites, chapped skin and lips, a daily skin moisturizer.
