Book excerpt: "Now when every maid's turn was come to go in to king Ahasuerus, after that she had been twelve months, according to the manner of the women, (for so were the days of their purifications accomplished, to wit, six months with oil of myrrh, and six months with sweet odors, and with other things for the purifying of the women;) Esther 2:12 KJV As you can see, Scripture gives us very little information about the spices and oils used to transform Esther from an orphan girl to a bride fit for a king. To find out more, apothecary, Cynthia Hillson, did much research into Biblical botanicals which led her to a historical study of the ancient spices transported and sold by caravan on the Incense Trail and the Spice Route of Queen Esther's day--a time when these beauty treatments were considered more precious than gold. In this book, Cynthia unveils the ancient secrets of Esther's twelve months of purification. She reveals the physical and emotional healing benefits and the timeless beauty secrets of each of the oils and botanicals that would have been used. She also explains the deep, spiritual meaning and symbolism of the whole process so we can apply it to our own lives. In addition, Cynthia makes most of these oils, resins, and perfumes available for us to purchase so we can be both physically and spiritually blessed in our own preparation to be Queen to the King of Kings.
