Derivation
The element of fire makes the metal pliable. The heat of the fire loosens the structure of the metal. This is good, because the metal can then be worked and refined through processing - e.g. into a piece of jewelry.
However, excessive heat, such as in the summer climate, can liquefy the metal so that it loses its structure and can no longer be worked. Metal then needs support, which can bring the element back into balance by activating the metal itself.
Fir essential oil
Fir or fir needle essential oil is assigned to the element metal. The effect is warm. The scent is green, coniferous, woody.
Different fatty oils can be used as a carrier oil for diluting the essential oil, depending on the skin type. We use the carrier oil almond kernel oil in this recipe. You can also find alternative carrier oils in the → Aromatrix.
