White Ochre 300g

White Ochre – A Sacred Connection to Spirit and Ceremony

White ochre holds deep spiritual meaning in Aboriginal culture. This soft, chalky mineral symbolises healing, clarity, and sacred connection. For generations, First Nations peoples have gathered and used white ochre in cultural ceremonies, body art, and spiritual practices.

The Meaning Behind the Colour

White ochre represents calm, peace, and spiritual balance. Elders use it to prepare for ceremony. It marks the face and body with intention. It speaks of stillness, strength, and wisdom passed down through the generations.

In healing ceremonies, white ochre often soothes and protects. Its presence offers comfort and grounding. While its colour is subtle, its cultural power is strong.

Gathered with Care

At Yarbun Creations, we walk Country with deep respect. We collect white ochre by hand, taking only what is needed. Each collection follows cultural protocols, ensuring the land remains protected and honoured.

Because of this care, every pinch of ochre carries meaning. It reflects the land it comes from and the hands that gather it.

Traditional and Contemporary Uses

Traditionally, Aboriginal people used white ochre in body paint, rock art, and sacred ceremonies. Today, it still plays a vital role in cultural events. Artists mix it with water or natural binders to create paints for canvas, wood, or ceremonial tools.

We also include white ochre in some of our soaps, jewellery, and ceremonial pieces. When you wear or use it, you carry part of that ancient knowledge with you.

Walk Gently with Spirit

White ochre reminds us to move with care and purpose. It invites stillness and connection to spirit. Every use honours the past and brings tradition into the present.

Let this sacred mineral guide your journey—with clarity, calm, and cultural awareness.

Please Note: Each batch of ochre varies slightly depending on the earth and region it is sourced from. These variations are natural and honour the uniqueness of Country.
