Cleansing Oil: A Simple How-To

I had blogged a few days back that I would provide you my recipe for blessing oil. Well, it's time to be a man of my word.

There are many recipes for making a blessing oil (ask google), but it is my personal belief that the only vital ingredient needed to make the oil is your faith. I have come to the understanding that such things like holy water, smudge sticks, incense and the like are only the catalyst to bring out your own power. These objects give you confidence and the necessary courage to stand and fight.

Now, how to make cleansing oil. First your gonna need a container to hold your oil in. You won't need to make a whole lot of the oil since the blessing takes very little oil. Once you find a nice small glass or plastic container the next thing you will need are rose petals (or rose oil). Take two or three petals and roll them lightly in your palm. The point of this is to break open the petals to the fragrance will come out quicker, and it's fine to utter a prayer while doing this. Place the petals in the container and fill almost full with extra virgin olive oil (leave room to shake).

Now that you have prepped you oil, the next move is to bless it yourself. Take your oil outside with you during the day and find a place (yard, patio, beach, park) where you can sit as quiet as possible and take about 5 or so minutes to say a prayer of your belief and meditate while focusing on the oil. Once done, take the oil and leave in a window (whichever gets the most light) overnight. If you can't sit outside for any reason then it is fine to pray and meditate indoors. If you are agnostic then simply meditate while focusing on what you would like to accomplish with the oil.

The best way to use the oil is to dab a little bit of oil on your finger and mark ALL doorways and windows (above the door and window, not on them) with the symbol of your religion or for the agnostics, your thumbprint. Basically, if your a Christian then you would mark the doorways with a cross and so-on for other religions. Make sure to say a prayer (or make your statement) for EACH ROOM you bless.
