The word cinnamon, the genus name, probably came from either the Arabic or the Hebrew language, but the species name cassia is from the Greek kassia, meaning to strip off the bark. Its use in Chinese medicine dates back to at least 2700 B.C.E., when it is mentioned in several herbal formularies. It is, however, primarily known for the familiar flavor it imparts to any dish that it comes in contact with. Cassia bark can contain up to 4% oils, as well as tannins, catechins, proanthocyanidins, resins, mucilage, gum, sugars, calcium oxalate, cinnzelanin, cinnzelanol, and coumarin.

Cinnamon can be used as a flavoring agent for most foods, as well as in teas, alcoholic beverages, extracts, and tinctures. Cinnamon is one of the most recognizable flavors in the world, and has been used at one time or another in just about every type of food product available, as well as the flavoring for a great many pharmaceutical and cosmetic products.

NOTE: The German Commission E has noted that some people are, in fact, allergic to cinnamon, with side effects ranging from allergic skin reactions to mucosal reactions. It is not recommended for medicinal use during pregnancy or breastfeeding.

In Magick, Cinnamon oil was used in a mixture for a holy anointing oil by the ancient Hebrews. The leaves of the Cinnamon tree were woven into wreaths that decorated ancient Roman temples. The Egyptians used Cinnamon oil as part of the Mummification process. Cinnamon, when burned as incense, raises high spiritual vibrations, aids healing, attracts money, stimulates psychic powers, and produces protective vibrations. Cinnamon is also used in making sachets and infusions for these purposes.
