History and Origin

Native to India and Indonesia, vetiver belongs to the poaceae family, also known as gramineae family. Its leaves are long and narrow. Its strong roots develop vertically and can grow 2 to 3 meters deep. The plant is very useful, because of its roots, to protect the soils from erosion and to control water run-off. It is the plant roots which are distilled to obtain essential oil.

Energetic and Emotional Effect

Grounding and security. Vetiver is an oil which keeps us in contact with earth and stabilizes our energies. It unites the energies of all the major chakras. Associated with the root chakra, vetiver is comforting and stabilizing. Associated with the plexus solar chakra, it acts as a barrier to prevent the accumulation of bad energies coming from other persons and protects against excessive sensitivity. Vetiver can be used in individual meditation to center energies or in group meditation to align energies of all the persons involved. Its balancing nature reminds us the connexion between the spiritual and physical Self.

Environment

Roots, gathered into bundles, are used to repel insects, especially mites.

Perfumery

Vetiver is used very often in perfumery to create toilet waters and perfumes.

Safety

Not known under physiological doses.
