New Worlds of Body, Mind & Spirit Since 1901
| For this spell, you'll need 1/2 cup olive oil, a small saucepan, 1/4 cup fresh or dried herbs (depending on your magickal purpose), grated beeswax, a clean empty can, wax paper, and a tongue depressor.
Step one: Warm the oil in the saucepan to bathwater temperature. Add the herbs and steep for an hour over very low heat. Pour through a strainer, discarding the herbs. You've created an herbal-infused oil. Step two: Add an inch of water to the saucepan and heat to simmering. Add about two inches of infused oil to the clean can and set the can in the water. Allow the oil to warm. Step three: Add beeswax to the infused oil, a small amount at a time. Stir well with the tongue depressor. Place dabs on the wax paper and allow to cool, checking the balm's thickness. If too thick, add more oil; if too thin, add more beeswax. Store in the refrigerator. Use your balm for healing, as an adjunct to trance work or astral travel, or to anoint magickal tools. |
