Luna in Cancer Incense

This incense is extremely potent, even just being near it while it’s burning as a Lunar offering. Using it this way has cleared blockages to understanding my Lunar sphere and how I can better process emotions and address Lunar issues. I also use it to dress candles for a slightly less intense Lunar experience!

Between the LiC and Exalted Luna incense, this is the one to go to when doing readings and divination. It is more unstable compared to Exalted Luna, which is more for relaxation. The LiC incense functions differently - it is surprisingly powerful, burns easy and smoke is thick, and takes you for a third eye ride almost immediately.

In my practice, I get help from Luna in Cancer Incense for:
1) Divination. I fumigate my Tarot cards and the area of my third eye, crown and throat chakras before asking a question. It can be helpful to burn a little bit of it in the space where you’re going to be divining, too. It doesn’t necessarily have to be divination with tangible tools either, you can simply sit down, close your eyes and ask the universe for an answer while you’re meditating. The incense will assist in thinning the barriers so that your inner self can receive the gnosis from the universe more easily. The answer will sort of appear within you. Important: Once the divination time is over, cleanse the space/tools/yourself with Asclepius incense/salt or burn dried rosemary/have a shower with using salt to wash your head and face to close open energy passages and restore the boundary protection. Otherwise, you’re running a risk of uninvited things attaching themselves to you or your tools (and, let’s say, getting your tarot giving you “funny” answers that don’t make sense).
2) Luna worship. For the “light and love” vibe, go for Luna in Taurus series. For a “dark feminine”, go for Luna in Cancer. If you can choose only one of these, go for Luna in Taurus. It’s far more stable, way safer, gentle and warm and can be used by both, beginners and advanced practitioners.
3) Amplifying petitions/worship to other Celestial Bodies. If the moon is transiting that day closely to a given Celestial Body or through a sign which expression you seek to channel. Always check if there are no hard aspects (square, opposition, conjunction) from the malefics.

I have a natal cancer moon so this materia was easy for me to partake of and feels like a warm hug from the divine feminine. I love pairing it with immmortal heart, Ex Luna and Venus when it’s my Red Tent time of the month, it’s’ literally like being cradled by all the mothers before and after me. Also lovely as an ancestral offering or in any ritual that needs the powerful moon moon magic.

Luna in Cancer is an absolute necessity for anyone doing magical workings. It really demonstrates the concept of catching the timing in a bottle. Transits not that great? Boost other materia with a sprinkle of powerful Moon. On its own, it's also nigh on hallucinatory and great for connecting to the ephemeral.

I love all th S+ incenses because the smell is mild but they’re still distinct enough that each one hits me differently. I love the LiC incense. I find the scent intoxicating in a good way and surprisingly impactful on me and my space.

I often will dress a candle or add some LiC incense to the mix when I want to add a little extra oomph when working with any other spirit (except Mars). Good potentiator. I have had mixed results only because my loose incense burn technique still needs some work. I expect I'll be in for a bulk pot when I finish my 1/2 OZ, and I'm excited to see what LiC incense can do on its own once I'm a bit more comfortable with Lunar workings.

Makes an excellent offering for lunar spirits. After using this materia, it's not unexpected for one to space out and get into an altered state. I tried to drive once after using it in a ritual, and blanked out at one point. Heed the warnings!

I also understand why it's said to 'direct' this materia - sometimes you feel as spiritually as wide as the Moon's orbit!

Oh my goodness, I love this incense. Every time I burn it, I think, why don't I use this more often? It has the gentlest, most soothing presence and smell. I use this along with the kolonia and salve if I need to quickly attune to my Lunar sphere. I love using this incense before bed to encourage dreams. I often will have very sweet dreams working with Luna in Cancer.

Excellent incense when petitioning Moon itself. One of the offering in this series that works excellent on it own.
