Litha Fire Incense
Midsummer is a great time for herb gardens, and usually by the time Litha rolls around, there’s buds and blooms everywhere. The summer solstice is a powerful time to not only gather herbs, but also to prepare and use them. Make this fragrant and simple Litha incense for use in ritual and ceremony.
