This has got to be one of the best books about using essential oils in Magick. It is an easy to read book packed with information. Almost every herb from A to Z is mentioned. The author renders over to the reader what the magical and heath purposes these herbs have. Included in the explanation about the herbs are recipes for different oil blends geared toward a magical purpose of course. Also thrown in are corresponding deities, colors, crystals and astrological times.
There are many different ways to use essential oil. The most common way is to add essential oils to a carrier oil like olive oil, jojoba oil, coconut seed oil and almond oil. There are lots of names in this book, many of which i forget. There is a terms for multiple essential oils in a bottle. Hydro soul come after the oil is leeched from the herbs. The left over water is a called hydrosol. There is infused oil where in the herb is soaked in an oil that allows it to get the essence. Conditioned oil is oil that is heated with the herbs to get the essence .
The author also tells how to discern if an essential oil is diluted or if it is pure. All I can say is that when it come to essential oil she really knows her stuff.
