Palm of Christ: The Sacred Healing Power of Castor Oil

 


There’s something sacred about healing that goes beyond just fixing symptoms. Real healing feels like grace—slow, steady, and deep. That’s where castor oil comes in. Known for centuries as the “Palm of Christ” or Palma Christi, this thick golden oil has earned a holy reputation, both for its physical healing and its spiritual energy.

Why “Palm of Christ”? That name didn’t come from marketing. It came from experience. People believed castor oil had the power to heal through touch, just like Christ did. Whether applied to the body with warmth or rubbed gently over pain, it was said to carry the same kind of love and restoration that miracles were made of.

Edgar Cayce, the “sleeping prophet,” recommended castor oil packs in hundreds of his healing readings. He believed the oil didn’t just soothe—it realigned. It stirred the energy systems of the body, unclogged blockages, and brought flow where there was stagnation. According to Cayce, illness was not just a physical thing. It was energetic, emotional, and spiritual. And castor oil was one of the few remedies that could meet you on all those levels.

Scientifically, we now know castor oil is rich in ricinoleic acid, an anti-inflammatory powerhouse. It helps reduce swelling, encourages lymphatic drainage, relieves pain, and stimulates circulation. That’s why it’s often used for menstrual cramps, digestive issues, and detox routines. But what science calls “circulation,” Cayce might’ve called “life force.”

Whether you believe in the sacred or stick to the science, one thing is clear—castor oil works. It’s ancient, it’s natural, and it’s deeply healing.

And if healing starts with love, then maybe a little bottle of Palma Christi is love in liquid form.

Girl, you’re doin’ just fine.

Grace Of God

Many individuals express disbelief in the existence of God or a Higher Power, which prompts the question of why some people manage to survive through extreme challenges. Countless stories of people overcoming serious addictions, life-threatening health conditions, and dangerous encounters seem impossible to explain. For instance, surviving a 20-year battle with addiction, undergoing a heart bypass, or escaping violent situations raises the question of what factors influence survival. Advice given during times of crisis, such as calling on a higher power for help, may seem unconvincing, especially when living through addiction or facing hardships that seem beyond control. Yet, life has a way of teaching important lessons, sometimes in unexpected ways. Individuals may question their own will to survive at certain points. When faced with physical danger, whether from addiction, health complications, or violence, the instinct to survive becomes a powerful force. In such moments, when al...

Letting Go

This year has been challenging for many. The desire to return to normal is strong, but what was once perceived as normal may never exist again. All suffering stems from attachment to people, places, and things. Losing a loved one can take years to overcome, and for some, the grief never truly fades. The world changes that are taking place have made this anguish more difficult to endure, especially among those who lost loved ones to the pandemic. Anger and resistance to what was taking place were the initial responses when the pandemic initially came on the scene. Blame placement was strong, until eventually it became more evident that the anger occurred not from the virus itself but from resistance to the changes that were taking place. The biggest challenge during this period has been to learn to release. Releasing the addiction, the toxic relationships, and the world that one knew. One must be able to trust the Universe and the Source, even when the old world that one knew is bei...
