Hi there,
I’ve just uncovered some fascinating golden nuggets about Queen Esther’s beauty preparations that I simply had to share with you. While studying ancient beauty practices, I discovered something remarkable about the 12-month beautification process she underwent (Esther 2:12).
Here’s what caught my attention: Queen Esther didn’t just apply beauty treatments – she created a sacred space for transformation. For six months, she used myrrh oil, and for another six months, she used precious spices and beauty treatments. This wasn’t just about external beauty – it was about preparation, dedication, and divine timing.
“Now when every maid’s turn was come to go in to king Ahasuerus, after that she had been twelve months, according to the manner of the women, (for so were the days of their purifications accomplished, to wit, six months with oil of myrrh, and six months with sweet odours, and with other things for the purifying of the women;)” – Esther 2:12 (KJV)
What’s fascinating is how this ancient wisdom parallels modern research about creating sacred spaces for self-care and beauty rituals. Just as Esther underwent a methodical preparation process, today’s women are rediscovering the power of intentional beauty routines.
The key insight? Beauty isn’t just about the products we use – it’s about creating an environment that nurtures transformation. Just as Queen Esther’s preparations weren’t rushed, our own beauty rituals deserve dedicated time and sacred space.
Speaking of divine timing, I’ve been led to share these insights with you now because I believe many women are being called to elevate their self-care practices to a higher level of intentionality and purpose.
Tomorrow, I’ll share more specific insights about how to create your own sacred beauty space, drawing from both ancient wisdom and modern science.
With grace and purpose,
Julianne
