How to Activate a Ritual Oil: A Practical Guide to Working with Spiritual Oils

How to Activate a Ritual Oil: A Practical Guide to Working with Spiritual Oils

How to Fully Activate Your Ritual Oil

Working with a ritual oil is not just about applying the oil itself. It’s about combining intention, consciously generated emotion, and action so the oil becomes a powerful ally in your spell, ritual, or intention work. For our purposes, that consciously generated emotion will take the form of your "feeling video."

Here is a simple process for creating and using your "feeling video," and we have our friend Lila here to give examples.


1. Think of Your Desire.

Example:

Lila wants to be promoted to office manager at her job.

2. In One Sentence, Describe Your Desire Clearly in the Present Tense Using an "I am statement."

Example:

“I am the new office manager at my wonderful job!”

3. Close Your Eyes and Get Quiet and Relaxed to Create a 10-Second "Feeling Video."

Example:

Lila sits on her favorite chair at home, closes her eyes, and relaxes. She visualizes walking into work. In her mind's eye, the boss sternly calls her into his office. When she walks in, half the office staff is there and they all yell, “Surprise!”

The boss smiles warmly, shakes her hand firmly, hands her the keys to her new office, and says:

“Congratulations, Lila. The job is yours!”

While still sitting in her favorite chair at home, Lila allows herself to feel throughout her entire body the absolute joy of NOW HAVING the job she has always wanted.

4. Connect the Fragrance of Your Ritual Oil to Your "Feeling Video." 

Once you clearly know what your 10-second feeling video is, open your ritual oil and breathe in its fragrance fully.

The fragrance of its herbs and essential oils becomes both a trigger and a superpower in one.

Example:

Lila opens her bottle of ritual oil and breathes in the fragrance so that every time she smells that oil from now on, it instantly triggers her 10-second feeling video in her mind and heart.

5. Perform Your Spell, Ritual, or Intention.

Your spell, ritual, or intention can be as simple or as elaborate as you like — lighting a candle, meditating, or anointing your forehead (mind) or chest (heart) area with the oil.

Example:

For her ritual, Lila decides simply to anoint her forehead with the oil and repeat her mantra: "I am the new office manager at my wonderful job! I receive it and rejoice!"

6. Set a Timer for 10 Minutes.

During these ten minutes, as you are relaxed completely, play your 10-second feeling video over and over again in your mind and heart. Feel your intention come true even in your body.

Continue to feel how you will feel when the wish is fulfilled — as if it is already fulfilled.

Example:

Lila stays in her chair with her eyes closed, playing her feeling video repeatedly in her mind and heart until she becomes so filled with joy that tears come to her eyes. It feels fully like it has ALREADY HAPPENED.

7. Play Your "Feeling Video" at Least Twice Every Day, Morning and Night. 

Using your timer, spend ten minutes each time. 

Example:

Lila is a busy woman, but she keeps in mind that spiritual creation for what we desire is worth at least ten minutes twice every day. Before her feet touch the floor in the morning or her head hits her pillow at night, she is playing her 10-second "feeling video" faithfully.

8. Catch and Release "Counterspells," then Reinforce Your Spell, Ritual or Intention Using Your Ritual Oil. 

Remember: Your spell represents your decision. No faith required. You have already decided and your spell is already done. Keep your oil on you so it's there when you need it as a reminder. Breathing in the fragrance takes you back to the moment of your ritual!

“Counterspells” are simply negative thoughts, words, or actions that show up. When negativity appears in any form, acknowledge it and release it.

Example:

When doubts come in, Lila says to the negative thought:

“Thank you for your input. I now release you.”

She blows the thought away. Then she takes a joyful moment to play her feeling video again while breathing in the fragrance of her ritual oil.

9. Be Ready to Receive and Act Upon Inspired Action Steps. 

Inspired action ideas can be easily dismissed when you don't recognize them, so BE AWARE that they will come once you've performed your ritual or cast your spell. And BE READY to implement those inspired ideas right away.

Example:

The next day, Lila suddenly gets the idea to finish next week's paperwork early and take it to her boss. There’s no real need for this, but the idea keeps coming to her, so she does it.

She recognizes it as an inspired action step and follows the inspiration.

10. Remember: Your Desire and Your Destiny are Bigger Than You. 

Your joy is a clue to your destiny.

Never think of your joyful desire NOR YOURSELF as something small. You are a blessing, and the fulfillment of your desire will bless not only you but everyone you interact with.

Example:

Even though Lila grew up receiving very little praise, she knows she was placed on this earth for a purpose. She understands that her joy is a key to that purpose, and that it will guide her toward being the blessing she is meant to be — both in her own life and in the lives of others.

She knows this not because she's some fortune teller but because she has decided.

And she is sticking with that decision.

My Friends, I am THRILLED you would allow Twichery to be a part of your destiny! We love you and are so happy you have put your trust in us and in our formulas. 

Sincerely,
Basil & Rowan at Twichery
