Amatory Necromancy Incense

2008-11-30T19:55:00.000-08:00

1 part Vervain herb
1 part Wormwood herb
1 part powdered Sandalwood or Rose Petals
1 part Dittany of Crete
1 part gum benzoin
Few drops of Olive Oil
Few drops of Red Wine
few drops of honey
Few drops of blood

Many, many plants have historically been associated with the dead and the spirit world; often these were grave goods, or plants traditionally grown in cemeteries.

The plant traditionally associated with raising the dead is the yew, but there are many other plants which are associated with the dead for the purpose of summoning the spirits, most often to entice the spirit into answering questions about the future. The magical incense burned by witches to attract spirits and help the materialize is known as a "suffumigation".

Various plants were used in suffumigations, including anise, dried carnation flowers, amaranth flowers, and gardenia petals, dittany of Crete, frankincense, heather, pipsissewa, sweetgrass, and wormwood. Dittany, in particular, was considered an excellent base; spirits would appear in the center of the smoke. Balm of gillead was also burned as a material basis for spirits. Asafoetida destroys the spirit manifestations when thrown into the fire (although I've also found information that it pulls in negative spirits).

Sandalwood is very commonly combined with other herbs for conjuring spirits. Wormwood, mixed with sandalwood, should be burned while in a graveyard. This will cause the spirits of the dead there to rise and speak. Crushed willow bark with sandalwood should be burned outdoors during the waning moon for conjuring. Sandalwood and frankincense is burned during seances. Lavender is also mixed with sandalwood for spirit summoning.

An incense for summoning recalcitrant spirits consists of three parts wormwood and one part Solomon's Seal. This is good for human dead who are not in very helpful moods. An incense for summoning spirits which were in a depressed state when they died consists of three parts wormwood and one part vervain. This is also good for people who are not aware they are dead. This will not only call them, but will also lighten their mood. The ancient Greeks believed that wormwood should be burned on a fire of privet in order to summon the dead, since a fire of privet was thought to open the doors of the Underworld.

Charcoal Block Recipe

2008-11-28T18:25:00.001-08:00

In order to burn loose incense or resins you need a charcoal briquette. Now, I know these things are sometimes expensive depending on where you by yours and if you use as many as I do, they really get expensive! But, you can make your own charcoal briquettes. And, if you are really energetic and have the time and space, you could consider a small charcoal making business.

( To use this recipe safely and effectively, you should be in an area where burning wood is permissible such as on your own land or in your own fireplace at home. )

To Begin: Burn several branches or logs of hard wood (ash or oak is best). Allow the wood to incinerate completely and wait until it cools down. Take the chunks and grind them with a mortar and pestle until the charcoal is a fine powder and you have 3 ounces of it. Measure out the 3 ounces and put it in a wooden or glass bowl.

Take one tablespoon of Gum Arabic (you can find this at your local herb store or art supply store) and mix it with 1 cup of water. Boil this in a saucepan for 5 minutes. Put it in a jar or plastic bowl and seal it. It can be re-used. Keep refrigerated.

Get your bowl of powdered charcoal and add 10% salt peter (potassium nitrate). You may have to call around to find salt peter. It is usually available in most new age shops. Mix your charcoal and salt peter together
thoroughly. Add 1 teaspoon of your Gum Arabic and water mixture to your charcoal and salt peter and mix thoroughly. Your mixture should the consistancy of dough (similar to bread dough).

Wen you feel you have the right consistancy, shape your charcoal dough into spheres and set on wax paper. Flatten out your spheres and use a shot glass or small round cookie cutter to cut into round blocks. You might make a small impression in the center of the block to hold the incense.

Allow drying and curing. This will take approximately 3-7 days. Go outside to test.

NOTE: The rule of thumb is to NEVER EVER add more than 10% salt peter to your mixture, ie 3oz=3/10 oz of salt peter. Too much salt peter will cause your block to poof and burn too quickly. Not enough salt peter, and your block won't burn at all. If on your test the block does not burn , try adding another small pinch to a new mixture in addition to your 10% or adding less than 10% if it burns too quick. If you increase the amount of charcoal you use, be sure to also increase your Gum Arabic mixture and your salt peter. Be careful that you don't burn yourself. HAVE FUN!
