To THRESH is to separate or beat out one part from another, as in grain or wheat.  A HOLD is a safe seat, or place that is protected.  So, the word threshold is born to reflect a place we cross into safety and wholeness - a nest so to speak, and an escape from one state of being to the next, such as from the secular to the sacred.  

Many essential oils support us and are called passage oils and have been used since time immemorial as such. Galbanum has a long and rich history of such use, an oil for anointing in all sorts of ritual and ceremony from Biblical times.  This oil has strong anti tumor capabilities and is wonderful to use at the “Trinity” of Frankincense, Galbanum, and Myrrh for prostate disease and many other ailments.  The Hebrews used this oil in many a temple.  A beautiful way to support women in particular is in the regular use of Geranium.   This oil balances and regulates all hormonal systems of a woman in transition, whether in beginning menses or through menopause.   

Consider the ability of oils to support you on the physical, mental, emotional and spiritual levels and know you are supported in many of life’s challenging transitions as you work with them.
