How to Anoint Oils for Spiritual, Therapeutic, and Ritualistic Use

Choose Your Oil: Select a base oil like olive, coconut, or jojoba oil. For my creations, I use fractionated coconut oil that is a certified therapeutic grade. It is completely soluble with all essential oils, is colorless, odorless, won’t stain, and is a feather-light emollient that readily absorbs into the skin.

Prepare Your Space: Find a quiet, clean, and calm environment to perform the anointing. This helps create a focused and intentional atmosphere.

Set Your Intention: Before you start, take a moment to set a clear intention for the anointing. This can be for healing, protection, blessing, or any other purpose you have in mind. I believe prayers and blessings with the highest intentions and gratitude are the purest.

Bless the Oil (optional): If your tradition includes blessings, you can say a prayer or a blessing over the oil to infuse it with positive energy and intent. As a spiritual guide, it is always my intention to be in connection with my higher self and the frequency of my ancestors, spirit team, ascended masters, and God. I pray with this invocation and intention.

Apply the Oil: Dip your finger into the oil or use a dropper. Apply a small amount to the area you wish to anoint. Common places include the forehead, wrists, or the crown of the head. You can also anoint objects or spaces.

Speak or Meditate: As you apply the oil, you can speak words of intention, affirmation, and prayer. Alternatively, you can meditate quietly, focusing on your intention. Surround yourself with the blessings and the aroma of the essential oils you use. Be sure to use high-quality oils, organic, and pure.

Close the Ritual: Once you’ve finished anointing, take a moment to close the ritual. This can be done through a final prayer, a moment of silence, and expressing gratitude.

Feel free to tweak these steps based on your personal beliefs and practices.
