SAC Astral 7x7 Contra Todo Incense Sticks are a ritual formulation rather than a room fragrance — botanical powders and aromatic resins on a stick base, made for cleansing and protection work. Twenty sticks to a pack, each burning for approximately twenty to thirty minutes.
The name is doing real work. Contra Todo means against everything, and the seven-times-seven is a folk-magical intensifier; together they describe a general-purpose protective blend rather than one formulated for a single situation. It belongs to a South American ritual tradition where that kind of broad-spectrum working is common.
In that practice the blend is burned for dissolving negativity, restoring a person's energetic field, breaking hexes, returning curses, and clearing blocks from a home. We set that out because it is what the product is for and people looking for it deserve to find it described accurately.
What we will not do is claim any of it happens. Those are uses within a living folk practice, held sincerely by the people who keep it, and reported here as practice rather than as effects of the smoke. Nothing about your energy, your protection, or your circumstances is promised by burning a stick. See the range in our SAC Incense collection.
As a fragrance on its own terms it is heavier and more resinous than the Floral or Traditional Series sticks alongside it. That is deliberate: working incense is generally built for presence rather than for being pleasant in the background of a living room.
No holder comes in the pack, so have a fire-safe holder ready before lighting, on a stable, non-flammable surface, and burn in a well-ventilated room away from children, pets, and anything flammable. More ritual options sit in our Incense collection.
