| Cypress Oil Cypress is an essential oil of blessing, consecration and protection. This unique scent stimulates ehaling and eases the pain of losses of all kinds. Coriander Oil Coriander essential oil works well in love and healing mixtures. Clove Oil Another irritant. Add one drop to 1/8 cup of base oil. Useful in courage and protection blends. Cedarwood Oil This essential oil has a woodsy scent. Its energies are useful in enhancing spirituality. Cinnamon Oil True cinnamon oil is irritating to the skin. Use sparingly in money and psychic awareness blends-no more than one drop! Cardamom Oil Deliciously spicy, cardamom essential oil brings a nice jolt of energy to love and sexually oriented formulas. Camphor Oil The cooly scented essential oil is fine for purification and promoting celibacy. Camomile A fruity, incredibly full scent. Sparingly use camomile essential oil for meditation and inducing peace. Expensive but worth it! |

| Copal (Bursera spp.) Copal is a white, pale yellow or yellowish orange gum resin. When smoldered on charcoal it produces a rich, delicious, piney-lemony fragrance. Copal is the North American equivalent of frankincense. While it lacks some of the latter's bittersweet odor, it is a find substitute for the famous gum resin. When frannkincense is left smoldering on charcoal for some time, it eventually emits a very bitter scent. Copal's odor, however, never varies as it burns. It is native to Mexico and central america, and has been used as incense in religious and magical ceremonies for untold hundres of years, beginning perhaps with the Mayans or even prior to the days of that fabled people. Copal is my favorite gum resin. Frequent trips to Tijuana have yielded a wide range of copal, varying greatly in price, appearance, scent and quality. The finest copal is a pale to dark yellow color with an intense resinous-citrus odor. It is usually sold in large chunks and may contain leaf fragments. It is excellent used in all protection, purification and exorcism incenses. It is also effective when burned to promot spirituality. Copal makes a fine if rather sticky tincture. Most of the copal sold in the United States is grown on plantations in the Phillipines. |

| Civet Real civet is the product of the civet cat, which lives in Sri Lanka, India and Africa. Unlike other animal oils, the animal wasn't usually killed to obtain civet but was painfully scraped. True civet has an overpowering gamey odor, which is highly offensive to the nose. In tiny amounts it smells sweet, so it has been used in nearly every high-priced perfume. Today, artificial civet is widely available, and is fine for use it magical oils designed to attract love and passion. Again, as with all animal products, I don't recommend using the actual substance. The sunthetics and compounds that duplicat their aromas are preferred to the genuine and expensive substances. Avoid using all animal products in herb magic! |

Camphor This white, intensely scented crystalline substance is distilled from a tree native to China and Japan. For many years true camphor wasn't sold in the United States. All "camphor blocks" and mothballs were made of synthetic camphor, which is extremely poisonous. Quite recently, through the help of a friend. I discovered a commercial source for camphor in San Diego. Camphone currently sells for around $8.00 a pound. It is added in small amounts to Lunar and chastity-type mixtures. |
