Who like me looks at an Orange and is reminded of sunshine and joy. Oranges make me think of The Sun Tarot Card - Positivity, happiness, Vitality, self-confidence, success.
Orange essential oil is used in aromatherapy because it evokes all of these positive feelings.
Its aroma is welcoming and warming, uplifting and energising. It brightens ones mood and enhances cheerfulness. It stills positivity and re-invigorates ones spirit. It has a relaxing effect while also being energising. It helps to ward off melancholy and depression. It boosts optimism and confidence.
Oranges can be used magically in many forms. Dried orange slices, dried orange leaves and peel, the seeds but one of the simplest ways for everyday magick is Orange essential oil. Even just a bowl of oranges on your counter top will be like a orb of sunshine in your kitchen.
