Marjoram Essential Oil (Origanum majorana)
May 20, 2010 | Posted in: Herbs & Essential Oils
Certified organic steam distilled essential oil from South Africa, it is also called sweet marjoram. Marjoram can be used internally (with proper dilution) and externally. It is a powerful antiseptic, with both antiviral and antibacterial properties. It opens and clears breathing passages when inhaled, calming coughs and acting as a decongestant.
Marjoram works to relieve painful joints and muscles, and arthritis, making it a great massage oil and bath oil. It has been used as a treatment for ringworm, boils, shingles, and other skin infections.
When applied as a compress to the chest, marjoram can relieve cardiovascular symptoms such as heart palpitations and angina. It will also reduce high blood pressure.
Energetically, marjoram acts as a bridge and catalyst between two levels of consciousness. It is helpful when transforming old belief systems, especially latent patterns connected with the heart. Its frequency harmonizes unlike oils when added into blends. Just a few drops will smooth out any blend in the blink of an eye.
