  The night is silent—the kind of silence that isn’t merely an absence of sound, but a presence: a dense, pulsating matter that presses against my temples and forces me to listen to my own breathing as if it were a foreign body. I write this in the hour when the light has not yet decided whether to be born or to remain forever in the womb of darkness. There are periods in our lives when everything scatters , when the boundaries of our familiar "self" begin to erode, much like riverbanks washed away by a surging current. This is not just a crisis; it is an ontological decay where our old identifications, the masks we have worn with such diligence, and the ego structures that gave us a false sense of security begin to break into their constituent parts.

To make a homemade calendula ointment, you will need:

✔️ Dried calendula flowers
✔️ Olive oil or another carrier oil
✔️ #Beeswax
✔️ A double boiler or a glass bowl over a pot of simmering water

Instructions:

✅ Fill a double boiler or glass bowl with the dried calendula flowers and the carrier oil.
✅ Heat the mixture over low heat until the oil has taken on the yellow color of the flowers.
✅ Remove the mixture from heat and strain the flowers from the oil.
✅ Place the oil back in the double boiler and add beeswax to the mixture.
✅ Heat the mixture, stirring occasionally, until the beeswax has melted and fully combined with the oil.
✅ Pour the mixture into a clean, sterilized jar and let it cool completely.
✅ Once cooled, the ointment can be used as a topical treatment for skin irritations, rashes, or wounds.

#Calendulaointment is believed to have calming and soothing properties, making it a popular choice for those looking for a natural way to treat skin irritations and calm the skin. However, it's important to note that while #calendula ointment is considered safe for most people, individual results may vary, and it's always best to consult with a healthcare professional before using any new skin care product.
