5 Essential Oils for Deeper Spiritual Awakening

Are you going through a spiritual awakening? If so, you will undoubtedly come to realise that you are going through one, even if it isn’t quite clear at first.

A spiritual awakening is the process your soul goes through when it is evolving. It is a call to higher consciousness and deeper spiritual awareness. You can have several spiritual awakenings throughout your life or just one. For some, there may be no spiritual awakening.

A spiritual awakening can manifest in many different ways. It could be that nothing changes on the outside – you stay in the same job, same relationship, same home. But your inner perspective shifts. Something inside you changes.

Or a spiritual awakening could involve huge and dramatic changes. You might lose your job or end a relationship. You may find yourself in a state of despair (known as the Dark Night of the Soul). But it is through this darkness that you come to find enlightenment. 

These are common experiences when having a spiritual awakening. You may see everything from an entirely new perspective. It’s almost as though you have shed your skin. Your soul is reaching another stage in its development. Sometimes the experiences and emotions you have while going through a spiritual development can be very challenging to deal with. 

However, no metamorphosis is easy. Think of the caterpillar when it is transforming into a butterfly! But the end result is one of beauty and freedom, freedom from who you were before.

What are the Best Essential Oils for Spiritual Awakening?

Essential oils can be extremely helpful when going through a spiritual awakening. They are pretty amazing in general, helping to ease stress, promote psychic ability and calm the senses, and with a spiritual awakening they can be especially potent as their scent has the ability to tap into your psyche and connect to the deepest part of you.

This essential oil is also associated with the Third Eye Chakra and promotes clairvoyancy.

Lavender

It is fantastic in helping relax the mind and bring greater balance to the chakras. During times when a spiritual awakening is causing intense emotions, particularly negative ones, lavender oil can help bring balance to you again. A few drops on your pillow or sleeping with a pouch of lavender under your pillow is also very helpful.

Sandalwood

At times, you may wonder if you are losing your mind or question yourself. You may feel scared and frightened. Frankincense helps to dispel this anxiety and promotes a sense of peace. Spirituality, it works as an energy medicine and helps to heal parts of your energy that have been wounded in some way.
