great resource by a good friend, Wonderful book with amazing content, I keep close to me as it has a plethora of information.
This book is wonderful for anyone in my line of work using any herb/essential oils formulary.
Making natural medicines this is the book for you, Layer out perfectly with information that will last years to come, Love this book! Tragically useless mushed together recipes from hoodoo, neopaganism, and folk magic make it a muddled mess of traditions and attributions.
Anyone attempting to learn the art of magical oils using this book is going to come away frustrated, confused, and misinformed.
Caveat emptor. Excellent. The bible of Magical Oils, I highly recommend. If this is not the first book of this type you have ever own then you have all the info that is in it.
A mash of other books from all over, ingredients that you are not given enough info on to even know what it is.
A lot if the recipes call for or use synthetic scents and ingredients that you just do not use in true magical workings.
All in all do not thro your money away on this book Great book of any kind of oil blends you can think of and their purpose Excellent resource book.
Something I can use time and time again, This book should be in every magical herbalists library,
This book is truly an amazing source, with recipes and potions for every situation from drawing money or enticing a lover, to help bless
a home or protect your aura.
One thing I have to comment on is the use of synthetic scents in magical oils.
The purpose of using a blend of essential oils and synthetics is that you are combining natural scents and magic with artificial ones, as the magic of oils lies in the botanical additions and the scent.
Most magical perfumes meant to be used as personal scents especially those for love are supposed to invoke a certain aura that might not be achieved through essential oils alone.
Many essential oils are very costly, not available, or toxic to the skin,
Most of the recipes featured here are betweeningredients long, and in some cases, I feel as if the ingredients become redundant.
The hoodoo formulas featured in this book are a train wreck, and I don't recommend them.
In many cases, she doesn't even properly explain their use and just throws them under 'to draw love'.
Well, that's all good and well, but what type of love, and from whom Hoodoo love oils have different distinct uses, and while they all fit under the title of 'love oils', they are used in different ways some are used to draw an unknown lover, others to attract someone you know, and still more to arouse dying love between your current lover.
There are several hoodoo recipes that she provides that are missing their key ingredients how the heck do you have John the Conqueror oil with no John the Conqueror root Or Jezabel oil with no Jezabel root A wreck, I say.
The back of the book also contains interesting medicinal applications of oils, including handy information about carrier oils both magical and practical and indepth profiles on some of the more popular essential oils, such as mandarin and lavender.
I really found this book to be interesting and informative, and should help you on your path of magical oil making.
Good reference book for making oils, Lots of recipes but you need to have the basics in what are the relevant features to the oils used if you want to modify.
Step into the fantastically fragrant world of magical oils and discover a new, invigorating way to delight your senses, uplift your spirits, improve your health, and enjoy total relaxation.
