Bursera graveolens, known in Spanish as palo santo, is a wild tree native to the Yucatán Peninsula, and northern South America. This tree is not related to the species Bulnesia sarmientoi that goes by the same common name. It is one of the most fragrant woods in the world. Its sweet scent of pine, mint, and lemon has, for centuries, been a harbinger of healing and good fortune. Shamans, saints, and those seeking a stronger spiritual connection with the world use palo santo to protect, experience, and heal.
Palo Santo wands tend to choose the careful and often caring, though this should never be taken to mean someone who is weak or who will shy away from doing harm. While most Palo Santo wands go on to the hands of Healers, some go to those who see "healing" in a different form: preventative healing by first eradicating those who might do harm. Both aurors and zealots have been found with Palo Santo wands, and the only consistent rule seems to be that these people all genuinely believe that what they are doing will help.
