Floral and herbal scented oils still play an extremely important
role in the world of magick. The ancients believed that certain odors
had various effects on people and objects. From this thought, the practice of anointing
with scented oils has been established in religious and magick ceremonies.

While applying the oil, it is important to concentrate upon the
effect the oil is believed to have. After concentrating upon the
desired effect, touch or hold the person or object with your right hand
(left, if you are left handed) and visualize the the person or object
completely surrounded by a white light.

To make your own anointing oil, start with a good vegetable oil base
Virgin Olive oil is fine, or you can use dipropylene glycol.

Into your mortar and pestle pour two ounces of oil, and add two tablespoons of your
herb or mixture into the oil. Store your oil in a previously consecrated
dark place for three days. On the fourth day check to see if the oil has absorbed
the scent of the herb, mixture, or flower. If the oil has a weak scent, use
a piece of cheesecloth and strain the oil. Add two more tablespoons of your mixture
herb, or flower to the oil. If necessary add more oil to bring the volume back to
two ounces. And once again store this for three days. Repeat this process until
the scent of the oil is as strong as you like.
