Burning Kyphi

I just burnt Kyphi, an ancient Egyptian ritual incense, in our front room. It was surprisingly potent, opening up visions of strange figures, temples, and the open desert, as each aroma released itself from the incense. B. was very impressed. The ancient Egyptians said a day without incense was a wasted day, so I intend to get busy with my newly acquired box of various herbs, resins, woods and oils to make an incense for various moods and events. Our modern-day ritual requirements; relaxation from stress, de-toxing, partying, going up and coming down. If I get recipe's which are successful (or otherwise!) I'll Blog them.
