The stone of the shamans
Concentrate on the sastun, the small stone. Calm your consciousness. Breathe in. Ethereal and cool the air will be at first, bitter at first and glistening green, like dew from enchanted fir winters, like lime crystals in swirling winds, and herb grows like vertical roots swelling like ginger and needles bursting, almost soundless and slow-motion bare, the air settles as foliage over earthy moss, and rubber milk trickles from sandalwood into the damp soil, which sweetly and mildly smolders the brownish needles of autumn still in tiny spicy clouds that soon glow amber and burn out in the hazy undergrowth, along with your demons. Breathe out.

Gather Perfumes, based in Massachusetts, produces 100% natural fragrances. Ananda Wilson incorporates botanical essences, extracts, and oils that are either locally wildcrafted or organically grown. She produces her fragrances in small runs at a time, which are subject to natural seasonal variations.
"Sastun", the stone used by traditional Mayan healers during their rituals, leads from ethereal light green notes (bitter sage, limey woodsy cypress, fresh herbaceous juniper) to earthy spicy aromas (herbaceous lavender, coniferous-spicy, gingery galangal) and finally grounds in forest floor-like moss, lightened by rubbery sandalwood, sweetly embalmed with myrrh resin and encased in soft, slightly smoky amber. The stone of the shamans glows quietly over round six hours.
