The Starry Temple Incenses are a brand new line here at Starryeyedsupplies, a beautiful loose herbal incense to help you create your own Temple within your sacred space.
Each Incense is centred around a different energy of Temple in order to help you build your own energy space.
Each scent is created around a particular energy web to promote harmonous energies whilst clearing the space within; based on ancient customs of using herbs and smoke to purify a space of negative vibrations and psychic debris, hand blended and imbued by this Celtic Witch to pack a magickal punch and smell absolutely divine doing it!
For use in burning rituals of cleansing, on a charcoal disc or within a cauldron, or by the beeswax method.
Comes in a reusable 100ml screw top tin with Starry Fox sigil.

...Badb
Your blood stained lips twitch
Consuming death
To ingest all that has ended
And carry it across the battle marred fields
Bones rattling in solemn reverence
Carry me forth from bitterness
And remake me again in your fury.
- Joey Morris Songs of Shades Vol. 5
The power in what this scent matrix does...
It evokes the Morrigan in her guise of phantom queen, wandering through the remnants of a battle.
Through churned earth, ash, smoke; The Morrigan wanders.
Or the ancient bonfires lit by the barrow side as wails of keening send the dead on to the other side.
Phantom Queen has energies of honouring The Morrigan especially Badb, as well as all the lessons of death She evokes.
The visualisations and energy behind Temple of the Phantom Queen included many places of Death - a roaring bonfire in Great Halls to commemorate battle, as the honeyed spiced mead is drank and offered to the memory of the fallen and for the Gods.
It is the Fire and Earth by the Barrow side as the Dead are honoured and mourned in rituals by the setting Sun.
It is the Otherness on the air, offering a lulling and lilting state that wafts into the unconscious just before the shocking piercing scream of the Bean Sidhe is heard.
It is the calling of The Hooded Crow over the Battle field as the slain depart this world, blood soaks the Earth in offering, and everything changes once again...
Connecting to The Goddess Badb as an aspect of The Morrigan can seem daunting, and truly tests us as human beings, our resolve, our resilience, our honour.
Badb in particular draws our shadows close so that we can overcome them, strengthening ourselves to all battles... those within, and those without.
We must honour all Death cycles, our own, those that occur within this lifes' incarnation, and physical death, as well as those ancestors of whom we are aware, and those of whom are forgotten.
★ Cypress in Witchcraft - Cypress is transformative, and often used to support those dealing with cycles of Death and endings, it promotes inner strength and personal transformation
★ Vertivert in Witchcraft - Vertivert is a beautiful essential oil used for grounding work for those work heavily in the realm of Spirits and Psychic travel and help people keep in step with the realm of the Earth. It is also wonderful for manifestation and prosperity work.
★ Tobacco in Witchcraft - Originally a sacred herb used for purification and in rituals to both see the spirits of the dead as well as honouring the ancestors.
