Dragon Babies


LOVE is in the air . . . . Babies in the arms
With the arrival of the highly auspicious year of the Water Dragon, 2012 also heralds the end of an era & the beginning of a golden era according to the ancient Mayan calendar. The Dragon being the most celestial creature in the 12 Chinese zodiac signs, it represents the most Yang aspect, while its elemental attribution, Water, represents the most Yin aspect of the five elements. Hence, we can see that 2012 is indeed a year of great significance in both elemental & cosmological sense.
In the Chinese culture, we see people are trying their best to have “dragon babies”, believed to have more luck & advantage over babies of other zodiac signs. With Valentine’s Day just around the corner, here’s a tip on improving your connections with your loved one &, perhaps, enhancing your chances with producing babies with aromatherapy!
Rose (Rosa damascena or Rosa centifiolia) with Sandalwood (Santalum album) are one of the best combination in aromatherapy to help improve emotional & sexual connections; these two components are vital in baby-making! Rose has been a symbol of the heart & love since time immemorial, it is a flower best epitomised in Valentine’s Day. Sandalwood, on the other hand, is an oil that has a tonifying effect on the kidneys - a pair of organs that are vital in the function of our reproductive system. When used in combination, the rose & sandalwood forms a delightful couple to bring about romance & untold bliss . .  so instead of buying roses at exorbitant prices this Valentine’s Day, why not spend on getting pure rose & sandalwood essential oils to awash you & your loved one in a bouquet of scented bliss, befitting of the Gods?
(N.B. – Please note that pure essential oils are not to be used neat on the skin.)
