Bergamot Warnings
While Bergamot is safe for most people when used appropriately, it’s essential to be aware that some people may experience skin irritation or sensitivity, especially when it’s applied directly to the skin. It’s also photosensitive, meaning it can make your skin more sensitive to the sun. Always dilute bergamot essential oil and avoid sunlight or UV light for up to 12 hours after application.
As with all forms of magick, intention is key. Always approach bergamot with respect and a clear mind, making sure your intentions align with your highest good.
