Angelica Root - angelica archangelica

3/9/2019

0 Comments

 
Angelica essential oil comes from the root of the Angelica archangelica plant.  Made up of primarily monoterpenes, this oil has a powerful aroma!  The earthy and herbaceous scent will overpower other aromas, so it's best to make it a very small part of a blend.  

It's antibacterial and antifungal, analgesic and antispasmodic, antioxidant, immunostimulant, and expectorant.  Energetically, it grounds the emotions and strengthens determination.  Emotionally, it can help relieve anxiety.  

This is an oil that most people either love or hate - I happen to love it! 

It's also been scientifically studied (along with Black Pepper) as an agent to help with quitting smoking which is why I use it in my PQ Minder blend. I put a drop on my diffuser necklace or earrings to help me cut back on smoking cigarettes.  Yes, I know smoking is bad for me and I've quit many times - then stressed out and started again.  When I use this blend I'll go nearly all day and not even think about smoking and not be irritable.  Because Angelica is a base note, the aroma lasts a couple of days on the lava stone.

Angelica EO is phototoxic and must be diluted to 0.8% or less in a topical blend to keep your skin safe during UV exposure.  If you use a topical blend with more than 0.8%, avoid UV exposure for 12 - 18 hours after application.
