History and Mythology:
Oranges are the feminine counterpart to Lemons. Their sunny aroma spreads a warm glow. Orange is the most popular flavour in the food industry and likewise, one of the most popular scents in aromatherapy. It is especially favoured among beginners, since it is uncomplicated and accessible to all. Orange lifts the energy and spreads radiant joyfulness. It is an excellent room aroma. It spreads a scent of welcoming cheer at home, and could also do much to harmonize the ambiance at any place of work, making the work seem to flow easy and improve relations among colleagues. Children also love this happy aroma and mothers should utilize it to their advantage. Especially during the grim winter months the scent of Orange oil, perhaps mixed with a spice such as Cinnamon, dispels dreary winter blues and replaces it with a sense of cosy warmth. Sweet Oranges were late to arrive in Europe from China. Some sources believe that they came with Italian traders in the 16th century. In China, Oranges were used as food and medicine and regarded as a symbol of peace, happiness and prosperity.

Magical Use:
Orange can be used in amulets and talisman for peace and happiness. It banishes negative thought forms, jealousy and insecurities. It can also be used in spells to harmonize relationships and may help in working through hurt feelings and lingering resentment. Orange opens the heart chakra and clears stagnant energies, latent fears and mistrust. It may stimulate the creative spirit and attract good fortune.

Scent:
A fresh, warm, fruity, ‘orange’ scent. Blends well with Cinnamon, Clove, Allspice, Coriander, Bergamot, Mandarin, Neroli, Petitgrain, Lemon, Clary Sage, Myrrh, Frankincense, Ylang, Ylang, Juniper and Cypress.

Aromatherapy:
Orange is one of the best oils to dispel listlessness, fatigue, depression and dreariness. It lifts the spirit and may inspire creativity, happiness and peace. In aromatherapy skin care it can be used for all skin types, though it is particularly useful for dry and sensitive skin. It may moisturize and refresh dull skin and help to tone and tighten aged skin. It is a good decongestant and can be used to stimulate circulation and combat cellulites. It helps to clear blockages e.g. in the lymphatic system as well as stuffiness in the head or blockages in the digestive system. It ‘moves chi’ as the Chinese would say.

SAFETY **
** Pure essential oils are highly concentrated substances that should always be treated with due respect. Organic oils naturally are the purest oils available.

** Familiarize yourself thoroughly with the properties and uses of each individual oil you intend to use and take note of all cautions.

** Never take essential oils internally! *

** Do not apply essential oils neat (undiluted) to the skin. The recommended Aromatherapy standard dilution is 1 – 3%, though certain oils may be used in higher or lower dilutions. Consider each case individually.

** Always adhere to recommended safety standards and recommended dilution ratios.

** If you have sensitive skin or are prone to allergies test oil blends on a small area of the inner arm prior to general use.

** Keep oils out of reach of children and pets.

** Never allow essential oils to enter the eyes.

** If you are pregnant, consult a qualified aromatherapist for suitability and safety of specific oils. Many oils should not be used during pregnancy, some only need to be avoided for the first 3 – 4 months, others may be helpful during labour, but may pose a risk during the months before.

** If you suffer from serious medical conditions such as (but not exclusively) high blood pressure, cancer, thrombosis, varicose veins or epilepsy, consult a qualified aromatherapist for professional advice on recommended oils and dosages.
** We support the notion of people taking responsibility for their own well being. However, if symptoms persist or re-occur or you are suffering from a serious medical condition, or if you are presently taking prescription drugs, we recommend that you consult a qualified doctor or practitioner before attempting to help yourself. Look for a practitioner/doctor who you can trust and who is prepared to work with you in exploring natural health alternatives.
*…unless you know better.

CARE FOR YOUR ESSENTIAL OILS:
Essential oils are highly volatile substances that easily deteriorate or simply “fly off” if not stored correctly. Keep essential oils tightly closed and store them away from any sources of heat, in a cool, dark place.
