Master the Sacral Chakra with Egyptian Musk Essential Oil
The Pyramid Texts of Saqqara—believed to be the oldest religious writings in the world—detail Seven Sacred Oils, one of which is Egyptian Musk Oil. Referenced within the texts as the ‘Spleen of Hathor’ genuine musk oil contains approximately 20% muscone from the deer musk and other pure oils such as Frankincense, Myrrh, Patchouli, Rose oil, Cedarwood, Musk seed oil, and Amber. The Egyptian Neter Hathor embodies the concepts of love, joy, femininity and fertility. She is related to the spleen and sacral naval chakra—the survival center—because they are mostly associated with the realm of emotion, sexual desire, and opening the self up to the energies of our true feelings.

The Egyptians believed that the health of the human body’s glands was vital to the health of the individual as a whole, and that each hormone secreted by these glands assist one in living as a ‘fully activated human.’ Musk oil’s relation to the spleen is a perfect example of the importance the ancients placed on using aromatherapy for healing the mind, body and spirit.
