Abramelin oil

A common element in ritual consecration is anointing with Abramelin oil.

A recipe for Abramelin oil using essential oils is as follows:

A recipe for Abramelin oil based upon the French manuscript:

There are, especially among English-speaking occultists, numerous variant forms of Abramelin Oil.

Abramelin Oil was considered by Crowley to be representative of the "whole Tree of Life.

Abramelin Oil is thus also a symbol of the Philosopher's Stone of the Alchemists.

Making Abramelin oil according to Mathers' translation of the French manuscript requires compounding the oil from raw ingredients.

Abramelin oil, also called Oil of Abramelin, is a ceremonial magic oil blended from aromatic plant materials.

It is possible to add 1 part of a previously consecrated batch of the Crowley version of Abramelin oil to each new batch.

Scent: The oils of Mathers and Crowley have a different aroma from the Jewish Abramelin oil.

Third, possibly due to a mistranslation, Mathers changed one of the ingredients within the recipe for Abramelin oil, specifying galangal instead of the original herb calamus.

Skin sensation: The original recipe for Abramelin Oil does not irritate the skin and can be applied according to traditional Jewish and Christian religious and magical practices.

In the Dehn version, the fourth book is included and Mathers' galangal substitution is reverted back to calamus (though not in the English translation - see Abramelin Oil).

Magic squares feature prominently in the instructions for carrying out these operations, as does a recipe for an anointing oil (taken from Exodus 30), popularly used by ceremonial magicians under the name "Abramelin Oil".

Because it derives from the formula for Jewish Holy Oil, Abramelin Oil also finds use among Jewish and Christian Kabbalists who are not specifically performing the works described by Abraham of Worms.

Early in the 20th century, the British occultist Aleister Crowley created his own version of Abramelin Oil, which he called "Oil of Abramelin," and sometimes referred to as the "Holy Oil of Aspiration."
