Goldenrod Essential Oil
Goldenrod essential oil is a rare aromatic gift from the plant world. It is very active on the mental, emotional, and spiritual levels of the human energy field. It helps one open the heart, even if it has been “broken” or has become hardened in response to life.
The spiritual and energetic properties of goldenrod essential oil include the ability to release energy blocks from the root and solar plexus centers. It’s known to be especially effective for those who may be dealing with issues of sexuality and survival.
Inhaling it helps us become more accepting of ourselves and all of our life experiences, and to help find true forgiveness so we can let go and move forward.

Observations and Anecdotal Information
Goldenrod is a very rare essential oil. I have found it to be a superior remedy for airborne respiratory allergies, such as allergies to pollen, animal dander, and environmental pollutants.
It’s also known to be used orally in homeopathic blends for food allergies.
Goldenrod has an affinity for the kidneys, and can potentially be highly effective in treating kidney and bladder infections. Use it by taking a drop of the oil in a cup of hot tear water twice a day.
It also has cardiotonic properties, and is a fantastic regenerator of the heart, pericardium, and arterial system. It can increase circulation, and has historically been used to help treat congestive coughs and diphtheria.
