1. What are the planetary correspondences for Lavender?
Lavender is traditionally associated with Mercury and the element of Air (and Water in some traditions). It is often utilized in workings honoring deities of healing, sleep, and wisdom, such as Hecate, Saturn, or Brighid.
2. Why doesn't this smell strong like a perfume?
To be clear, this is a vibrationally pure anointing oil, not a commercial fragrance or perfume oil. Synthetic fragrances are designed to project a strong scent across a room. Our ritual oils are formulated purely with natural essential oils and botanicals to hold a specific energetic frequency. The scent profile is intentionally subtle so it anchors your physical body and liminal focus without overwhelming your senses during deep trance or spell work.
3. How do I use this for spiritual cleansing?
Lavender is an excellent, gentle alternative to harsher purifying herbs. Anoint the four corners of your altar, or dress a white candle, to clear stagnant vibrations and establish a peaceful, protected sacred space.
4. Can I use this oil to anoint my divination tools?
Yes. Because oil will stain and warp paper, never apply it directly to the faces of tarot cards. Instead, roll a tiny amount of oil onto your fingertips, rub them together until mostly absorbed, and lightly tap the outer edges of the deck or the box they are stored in.
5. Can I use this oil on my skin?
Yes, this oil is safely diluted in a premium, skin-safe Jojoba carrier oil specifically for topical pulse-point anointing. However, it is formulated as a ritual tool, not a cosmetic, and we always recommend doing a small patch test first.
6. Are the ingredients ethically sourced?
Yes! At Witchcraft Essentials, we believe in the power of nature. Our oils are free from harsh chemicals and synthetic ingredients. The lavender blossoms are organic, wild-harvested, and ethically sourced to maintain their highest vibrational integrity.
