There has even been research on Juniper slowing down and preventing the reproduction of cancerous cells however, since natural ingredients cannot be trademarked pharmaceutical companies have tried to reproduce Juniper oil, inorganically, for cancer treatments.

There are a couple of ways to reap the benefits from this beautiful tree. Through essential oils or through smudge sticks. You can extract Juniper oil yourself through distillation, it is a tedious project and yields are not very high, or you can buy oils on various websites. Same goes for Juniper smudge sticks, there are plenty of websites to buy from online. Smudge sticks bring aromathereputic benefits into your space. It has the ability to cleanse and purify the air.

El Ojo De Dios

History of "el ojo de dios" Originating in the Americas these "God's eyes" as protection charms and a talisman of, the better known , third eye. A powerful symbol of understanding unseen things. Huichol indians created these woven pieces of art to put on their alters. A traditional "God's eye" has 4 points representing the 4 elements, earth, fire, and water. To weave a "God's eye" one is putting their own energy and prayers to create a physical object to forever be a representation these intentions. They are often used to protect children. They can be given as gifts either at birth, a baptism, or birthday.
