The red resin is primarily sourced from species of trees in the genus Daemonorops found in Southeast Asia. This vibrant resin is a powerful resource for those interested in magic, healing, or energy work. It has been used in sacred incense, aromatherapy, and skin care products for centuries. Additionally, it serves as a digestive aid and helps protect against unwanted bacteria and fungi. The name “Dragon’s Blood” originates from medieval folklore, which claimed it was the Blood of dragons that perished in battle.
Dragon’s Blood is believed to clear negative energy, provide protection, boost energy levels, promote mental clarity, and assist in healing wounds, burns, and rashes.
Its aroma is often herby, earthy, sweet, and sometimes spicy-floral or myrrh-like.
Historically, the beautiful red resin has been widely used in magical and spiritual practices to cleanse spaces of negativity and offer protection. It is employed both medicinally and for internal and external uses.
