Sacred Ritual Unguent - By Firewolf
During the summer I find myself lost amongst a heap of books
and botanical articles. I spend much of
my time concocting different recipes, many originating from ancient
transcripts and modern discoveries. The
ancient people of both Egypt and Greece created many ceremonial salves and
ointments, usually containing hardy substances such as cypress bark and an
array of natural resins. These curious
recipes entice thoughts of a time of simplicity and respect for nature and Her
many treasures. The following Sacred Unguent Recipe can be easily created at
home. This unguent recipe was created to be worn before, during, and after any
sacred ritual or devotional prayer. For this recipe you will need the following
ingredients:
¼ cup grated beeswax
¼ cup coconut oil
1 teaspoon frankincense oil
½ teaspoon myrtle oil
½ teaspoon rose oil
10 drops cinnamon oil
10 drops myrrh oil
5 drops cedar oil
pinch powdered dragon’s blood
small glass bottle
small container(s) for unguent
In the small glass bottle blend together the essential oils. In a microwave safe bowl, melt together the beeswax and coconut oil. (You may also use a double boiler to melt together the coconut oil and beeswax). If using the microwave, melt the coconut oil and beeswax at one minute intervals, stirring each time. When the coconut oil and beeswax has completely blended and liquefied, add the blended essential oils and the powdered dragon’s blood. If desired, you may state out loud a prayer or incantation during this process. Stir and pour the blend into the container(s). Seal the container(s). Allow the blend to cool for at least one hour in a dark place. This Ritual Unguent can be worn on the wrists and neck before any spiritual ritual or devotional prayer. When I created this delightful blend I used a stalk of fresh parsley to stir the coconut oil and beeswax together. The coconut absorbed a hint of sweetness from the parsley, giving this blend an added deep sweetness. Enjoy!
