As you know by now, I love the spicy side of things.  My feelings for Cardamom Oil and Cardamom in general are feelings of warmth and fondness.  Cardamom is a real feel-good spice.  It is luscious, rich, exotic and uniquely aromatic.  The effect of the oil is soothing and uplifting.  As a consequence of this it is excellent for reducing drowsiness and helping concentration.  Cardamom is a member of the ginger family, therefore in massage it is ideal as part of a warming nurturing blend.
