Anise has estrogen-like properties, is an emmenagogue, aids childbirth, increases milk secretion, and is antispasmodic for nerves and muscles.
Anise Star Seeds
Anise is indicated for lack of menstruation, menopause, colitis, and poor breathing due to nerves. In the East it is used to combat colic and rheumatism.
     

Pure & Therapeutic Essential Oils :

This oil is Therapeutic Grade. Commercial Grade essential oils are usually made of the left over plant materials after finishing the therapeutic distillation process. The commercial grade oils retain a robust fragrance suitable for soap making, candle making, as well as cosmetic manufacturing. Unfortunately, because of the reduced active therapeutic content, the commercial grade oils will not be suitable for aromatherapy or massage therapy applications. Silky Scents Essential Oils are all Pure and Therapeutic Grade, not Commercial Grade.
     
Blends well with: Fennel, Petitgrain and Rosewood.
History: Star Anise is so named from the stellate form of its fruit.  The Japanese plant the tree in their temples and on tombs; and use the pounded bark as incense. The homoeopaths prepare a tincture from the seeds.
