Essential Oils to Replace Incense in Rituals

Most all mystical workings call for the use of incense; however, some people are not able to use incense for various reasons such as allergies or the use of oxygen. Essential oils are an excellent substitute and can even be used in conjunction with incense to strengthen your working. A working to attract money using both incense and essential oil will be included in the next and final installment.

Word of warning before you begin using essential oils for any purpose, do not ingest any of them and always ensure against allergy before applying to the skin.

Among the many uses for essential oils in magic are anointing, candle magic and spiritual wash for cleaning. I always use them in house blessings and property cleansings.

      Dezmon, it all depends upon what your end goal may be. Also, there is no harm in incorporating more than one oil in any given working or use provided you do not actually mix them unless you research to ensure that it is safe to mix them.

      Do take precaution to not get any of the oils directly on your skin to prevent any potential allergic reaction.

      I greatly appreciate you taking time to read this article and comment.

      Thank you and blessings.
