Warm, Inviting Cinnamon

Cinnamon has many wonderful properties that cannot be overlooked. It makes an apple pie taste fantastic, makes your coffee taste like Christmas time, and adds a flare to your home that makes it smell warm and inviting. What most people do not know about cinnamon is that it is the number one candle scent sold in America. At Christmas time, people often purchase cinnamon scented pinecones to make their home smell delicious. There are many that want that same scent all year long; this is partly why cinnamon has become so popular.

What most people do not know is that cinnamon also has magical properties as well. Cinnamon is often used in the Pagan, Wiccan, and Shaman communities to ward evil from the home. Burning cinnamon candles in the home for at least a half hour each day will keep bad feelings and negative intensions from your door and create a happier environment inside your home. Perhaps it is because the warm cent of cinnamon makes a person relax and feel at ease or maybe it really does have magical properties to it, but whatever the reason, there are fewer unhappy people in a cinnamon scented home than one that scented with coconut.

Coconut is a fun, tropical scent that makes your home smell good, and is also an aphrodisiac. This means that it is regularly going to cause arousal in people that are subjected to smelling the sweet nutty scent of the coconut. While emotions are stirring, some of them will leak out and they are not always the ones that you are hoping for. The coconut smell arouses all emotions and we do not always get to pick and choose which ones that we are going to let out. This is why it is not advised to burn coconut scented candles unless you are able to handle the potentially hostile behaviors it can bring about. Cinnamon is preferred because it helps to calm those emotions that can otherwise get out of hand. The relaxing atmosphere is a great place for the elderly as well as young children to be in.
