Mississippi Medicine
SMOKEY CEDARWOOD AND INCENSE THAT LURES YOU DEEP INTO THE FOREST
Mississippi Medicine is based on what little is known about the rituals of a fast growing death cult that emerged in the southern part of the US in the 1200s. A period within the Mississippian culture when a specific system of religion quickly emerged - The Mississippi Death Cult.
The sacred cedar tree represented an axis mundi, a gateway between the lower and upper worlds. Few things are as fascinating as the concept of seemingly mundane places – a cave, a space during a bush, a tiny lake, are gateways to the other world. Ancient peoples' understanding of the world integrated landscape, flora, and fauna into their whole being.

Mississippi Medicine is rich in cedar. Dry red Virginia cedar. Healthy doses of incense help marry the wood to the pine. Incense has been used in rituals since the dawn of time, which means we connect it to religious feeling in the depth of our bones.
The heart of MM is filled out with an accord of wild viola that could have grown by the mounds in Mississippi. Birch takes adds a primal smoke. It smells mysterious and ancient.
