Oil Crafting

Note: I would suggest testing a small amount of the oil on a patch of skin on your hand to be sure you are not allergic to it, before working with it.

Uses of Magical Oils: Magic oils can be used for anointing ritual items or yourself. They are most often used to draw people, money, etc into your life.

Carrier Oils: To make a magic oil, you will need a carrier oil. A carrier oil is used to dilute essential oils so that they don't irritate the skin. I personally use olive oil or Vitamin E oil, but you can use any of the following:

• Safflower Oil
• Sunflower Oil
• Coconut Oil
• Apricot Kernel Oil
• Almond Oil
• Hazelnut Oil
• Grapeseed Oil
• Jojoba Oil

Essential Oils: Now that you have chosen a carrier oil, you will need essential oils associated with your intent. I have provided a list below to help you with choosing essential oils.

• Apricot Oil : Aphrodisiac
• Basil : Helps avoid conflict, encourages happiness, peace, and stimulates the mind. It can also be used to help attract money.

Crafting your Magical Oils:

To make your magic oils, you will need 1/8 of a cup of the carrier oil and drops of your essential oils. The number of drops of essential oil you use is up to you and can vary from mixture to mixture. Once you have the carrier oil and essential oils, add the essential oils to your carrier oil. As you add them, visualize them blending and working to bring about your desired intent. For example, if I were making a healing oil I would add 6 drops of lavender and 4 drops of sandalwood essential oils to 1/8 of a cup of olive oil. As I added and mixed each of the essential oils with the carrier oil I would visualize them speeding my healing and recovery. I would then place a few drops of the oil on my wrists and neck, visualizing them speeding my healing as I did so. You could also use the oil to anoint candles for a healing ritual.
