Black Phoenix Alchemy Lab (BPAL) The Great American Eclipse : Historical Accounts, Landmarks, and Personages Limited Edition Perfume Oil (Limited)
It has been known since antiquity that looking directly at an eclipse can cause serious damage to the eyes. Islamic scholar, Al-Biruni, observed that you could minimize the damage by viewing an eclipse reflected in the surface of still water. In his Naturales Quaestiones, Seneca observed, “Whenever we want to watch an eclipse of the Sun we set out basins filled with oil or pitch, because the heavy liquid is not easily disturbed and so preserves the images it receives.”
Amber swirled in opoponax, black labdanum, and poplar tar.
