If you're unfamiliar with blending magical oils, be sure to read Magical Oils 101 before getting started. To make Winter Solstice Oil, use 1/8 Cup grapeseed oil or other base oil of your choice. Add the following:

  • 4 drops pine oil
  • 2 drops orange oil
  • 2 drops cedar oil
  • 2 drops juniper oil
  • 2 - 3 small lumps of frankincense, finely ground

As you blend the oils, visualize your intent, and take in the aroma. Know that this oil is sacred and magical. Label, date, and store in a cool, dark place. Use during your Yule celebrations to anoint participants or tools.
