I developed this “Dragon’s Blood Beauty Balm ~ Awaken The Female Dragon”, first from the inspiration from the magical Dragon Blood Tree and second because of the traditional medicinal and skin care uses. I immediately fell under the spell of this mystic tree when I discovered the dragon’s blood tree on an island of the Azores Islands. I saw the dragon tree for the first time on the Island of Pico. I was instantly mesmerized and captivated by the dragon’s blood tree.

Dragon’s Blood Tree
The dragon’s blood tree is also called the dragon tree and drago, Dracaena draco. The tree’s resin looks like blood because it is transparent and vibrant red. The name Dracaena comes from the Greek word ‘dracaena’ and means Female Dragon. The resin has been used as a dye and for medicinal purposes and in medicinal products for centuries. This subtropical tree is native to the Canary Islands, Madeira, Cape Verde and western Morocco and brought to the Azores. The dragon tree is known to live a very long time. The oldest tree is possibly be 400 – 1000 years old. It is hard to determine the age since dracaenas are monocotyledons and don’t have rings to count the years.

Dragon’s Blood Tree Medicinal Uses
According to Dragon’s blood: Botany, chemistry and therapeutic uses  dragon’s blood resin has been traditionally used as a “haemostatic, antidiarrhetic, antiulcer, antimicrobial, antiviral, wound healing, antitumor, anti-inflammatory, antioxidant………and for skin disorders such as eczema.”

The Mystic and Magical Dragon Tree ~ Female Dragon

Learn the power and the energy
The language of the craters the signs
Of the dragon tree and its magic alchemy
Or the writing of stone and metals
-Manuel Alegre (Portuguese Poet)

Aprender os poderes e a energia
A língua das crateras os sinais
Do dragoeiro e sua magíca
alquimia
Ou a escrita da pedra e dos metais
