Making Your Own Anointing Oil

Making your own anointing oil for your rituals is as simple as placing a good quality of oil (olive oil or mineral oil work) in a small glass bottle and adding whatever herb works best for your particular intention.  As you combine three parts oil and one part herbs, visualize your intent, breathe in the aroma and know that this oil is sacred and magical.  Label the bottle for future use and screw the top back on tightly.  The bottle must be cured for at least two weeks in a warm, dark place before using.
