Within sympathetic magick it was a common practice to anoint with the fat of sacrificial animals as it was perceived to be a powerful charm second only to the blood of the animal. The practice of anointing with oil is believed to be rooted in this ancient practice, which makes sense to this Witch.
I have had a few different recipes for anointing oil. The following is one that I used often:
- 1 part Myrrh
- 1 part Cinnamon
- 1 part Patchouli
- 1 part Carnation
- Olive Oil
