Kindly Note: Many customers (in fact, most) inquire about how to use resin after purchasing it. Resin is inherently hard and not easily combustible. While it can be burned with a direct flame from a torch, traditional methods have always involved charcoal. Modern charcoal tablets offer a convenient alternative. You don't need to use an entire tablet at once unless you intend to burn a large amount of resin, which can produce significant smoke. Consider breaking off a quarter or half piece. Ignite the charcoal tablet with a lighter (or matches, a gas stove, or even by friction—any flame will do) until it glows red. (Caution: If you only heat it briefly, it may extinguish due to insufficient temperature, much like grilling.) Exercise extreme caution when burning or handling the charcoal tablet to avoid self-injury. Most charcoal tablets have an indentation on one side. Place your desired amount of resin into this indentation. Good quality resin only requires a small amount to release a wonderful fragrance. Therefore, purchasing resin typically necessitates buying charcoal tablets as well. If you choose not to, well... we wish you the best of luck in igniting it with the power of your thoughts! Additional Information: Another method involves layering the resin over palo santo powder or other fragrant powders. This method also works, but it's important to manage the amount of powder and the heat. Sometimes, not all of it will burn completely. If you desire a singular, pure scent, using charcoal tablets or an electronic incense burner is recommended. An important point to remember is that the items in this shop are natural herbs and resins. As natural products, leaves will vary in size, some may be whole, others broken. The same applies to resins; particle sizes will differ. Some resins are more brittle than others and may easily break into powder. When purchasing in bulk, even the shop owner receives them by weight. It's impractical to expect specific particle sizes or a complete absence of powder. Natural resins come in various sizes, with some powder and even bark fragments. Each batch is unique, and the shape of each particle will never be identical. The amount of powder will also vary. The photographs display a sample of resin from one batch, representative of what we use for burning. The powder is even better for burning; some people even grind it into powder intentionally! The resins sold in this shop are weighed and randomly selected for each order. By purchasing from this shop, you acknowledge that you have read and understood these details. If you are a perfectionist, please consider your purchase carefully. Many customers also ask if resins can be burned together. Absolutely! You can burn one type at a time. Charcoal tablets are convenient, allowing you to add a different resin once the previous one has finished burning. Alternatively, you can create your own blends of two, three, or even countless resins to burn together. Ultimately, the most important thing is that the resulting aroma brings you comfort and joy. Product Introduction: Socotra Island in Yemen, known for its thousands of unique species, is often called "the most alien place on Earth." Among its peculiar inhabitants is the "Dragon's Blood Tree," which resembles a UFO that has landed on the ground. However, the resin from the Dragon's Blood Tree has been used as medicine in Traditional Chinese Medicine for over a thousand years and was even used as an "effective hemostatic agent" during the Vietnam War. The Dragon's Blood Tree is reputed to be one of the longest-living tree species on Earth, with some individuals reaching up to 6,000 years old. It primarily grows in tropical regions of Africa and southern Asia. Its funnel-like shape effectively collects every drop of rain, while its branches act as channels to guide water to the roots. This adaptation allows it to thrive even on the arid island of Socotra. When the bark of the Dragon's Blood Tree is cut, a vibrant red sap flows out. Local populations use this "dragon's blood" to create dyes or as medicine for respiratory and gastrointestinal issues. Shamans also incorporate it into rituals and alchemy to enhance their spiritual powers. In China, dragon's blood is known as "Xue Jie" or "Qilin Jie" and is a potent medicinal herb for treating bruises and injuries. Traditional Chinese Medicine also records its use. Su Song of the Song Dynasty, in his "Tang Bencao," described: "Xue Jie originates from a tree several zhang tall, pleasing to the eye. Its sap flows from the wood, dripping like viscous glue, solidifying over time to become Jie, red as blood, harvested at any time." The most famous Dragon's Blood Tree on the island resembles a large mushroom, but viewed from below, it looks like a flying saucer. Its deep red sap, named dragon's blood, is said to come from trees up to six thousand years old. This deep red sap is not only used in medicine and dyes but also in witchcraft, alchemy, and folk magic, believed to enhance magical efficacy. #Dragon'sBlood #blood #resin #charcoal_tablet #alchemy
