This Essence like many others, was made in the Valley of the Winds in the Olgas (or Katajuta) in central Australia. Mint Bush is for the spiritual trials and tribulations that one goes through just prior to initiation, when one feels they are being tested, often to their limits. At this time there is usually a great deal of confusion and there can even be a sense of being in a void. There is not the total despair of the Waratah, but very much the feeling that everything is too difficult and too much to deal with and resolve. It helps one cope with the dross being burnt off before emerging at a new spiritual level.
