The use of herbal oils in magical and religious ceremonies is one ancient practice that has progressed to modern times.  In Christianity, a commonly used oil is the Holy anointing oil which is used more often during an exorcism.

In Hoodoo, the use of oils is very important and this is because these oils have been proven to have powerful and magickal effects. Since there are many types of oils with different effects, before using any oil, you are expected to know its components and effects. For example, you should know the oil used for attracting love and the one used when casting hex.

While studying about the different orishas, you must have learned that they have unique characteristics, likes, dislikes, abilities, etc. Therefore, there are different oil recipes that you can use when consulting any of the orishas.

Below are some of the recipes for preparing oils used when working with different orishas.
