I made underneath my altar for days when I have a little trouble dropping into meditation or reverence. I chose these ingredients because they're mostly catch-all power and protection herbs that usually only serve to enhance any other working I might choose to do. I anoint myself by dipping my fingers in the oil and drawing a pentacle on my forehead, rubbing my hands and rubbing my feet in the oil. Sometimes I say a quick prayer of dedication to the gods while I do this. It's easy to relax and meditate on the energies in the oil mixing with my own and then dropping into a meditative state.
Oil is also good for use on charms and letters or to wear as a perfume.
When I'm short on cash, I will dab my wallet and myself with a little money oil before going out to find extra work. Massage oil is also excellent for inspiring a little action between lovers.
