Hekate's Blessing Deity Oil
"HEKATE (Hecate) was the goddess of magic, witchcraft, the night, moon, ghosts and necromancy." - Theoi
I work with Mother Hekate to heal generational trauma, dream work, introspection, and my clairsenses. I venerate her on Saturdays as the planetary correspondences of Saturn fit her well.
She's been with me for over a decade, since the start of my practice. She took on the mother figure role when I personally did not have anyone.
This blog is actually dedicated to her for helping others learn about witchcraft and the occult.
She's a stern teacher, who will take off your training wheels on your bike and push you. However, she'll help you up when you fall. She's kind and nurturing when you need it.
I made an oil for her to call upon her. I use it to carry her with me, to wear for certain purposes and as a candle-dressing. It helps me with my intuition, clairsenses, protection, spiritual communication and divination.
You will need
A clean and cleansed jar
Myrrh - The moon, introspection, protection, spiritual connection, she just loves myrrh (UPG)
Cypress - Historical herb, strength, protection, enhances spirit connection, grief
Lavender - Dreamwork, enhances spirit connections, peace
Thyme - Clairsenses
Carrier Olive Oil - Traditional offering
You can either do the folk method or the hot method. You can find my post on infused oils here to learn how to make infused spell oils. I suggest if you are an animist or someone who wants more power from your oils. Speak to the herbs kindly, treat them less like an ingredient and ask them respectfully for their aid and the purpose they'll have in your oil. Use intention. The same goes for the Olive oil.
You can sub any of these, however, Cypress is historical for her. So is Olive Oil among the Greeks. Try to keep within the theme of the underworld, death, spiritual connection and psychic work.
Blessings!
