What makes Ananda's oils different? Learn about our conscientious selection process here...
Sage essential oil is steam distilled from the leaves of so-called 'common' or 'Dalmatian' Sage. This is the same plant with that wonderful aroma found in semi-arid regions the world over. The oil is is a pale yellow, with a warm, spicy, herbaceous and mildly-camphorous aroma. It tends to blend well with Rosemary, Lavender, Hyssop and Citrus essential oils. 'Common' Sage is the preferred variety in perfumery work. Sage was known at the 'sacred herb' by the ancient Romans; 'Salvia' being derived from the word 'salvation'. Sage herb is commonly used to 'smudge' rooms, buildings and other areas to move out old, negative, or stagnant energy. Aromatically, the essential oil can be mentally stimulating, helping one cope with despair and mental fatigue. The oil may support balancing of hormones for women, bringing positive energy to the pelvic chakra where negative emotions from denial and abuse can be stored. Sage oil is antiviral and antimicrobial, though it should not be taken internally due to it's high thujone content - it should not be used by pregnant women and children under 10 years old. The high thujone content (thujone is of the Ketone molecular structure) however, also gives it important effects in skin and hair formulas. It may assist in detoxifying the body, regulating circulation and supporting metabolism. Sage oil is included in Dr. Kurt Schnaubelt's recipes (in Advanced Aromatherapy) for cellulite, healing stretch marks, healing old and keloid scars, and is included in some hair growth stimulating formulas. IMPORTANT: Because of Sage's ketone content, it should not be taken internally, and otherwise should be used sparingly as needed.
