Lavender Oil | Calm, Sleep & Ritual Purification

Herbaceous and floral with a soft sweetness underneath. The most recognizable oil there is, and the reason is that almost nobody dislikes it.

What It Is
Lavandula angustifolia, steam distilled from the flowering tops. True lavender rather than lavandin, which is the cheaper hybrid usually sold as lavender.

In the Craft
The name comes from the Latin lavare, to wash. Romans burned and bathed in it as a purifying herb, and medieval households strewed it on floors and hung it in doorways. In modern practice it is the gentle clearing oil, used to settle a room rather than strip it, and to quiet mental chatter before divination.

How to Work With It

• Diffuse before a reading, or in a bedroom at the end of a hard day.
• Dilute in a carrier oil and anoint your wrists before ritual work.
• Add a drop to a candle you are dressing for peace or sleep work.
• Put one drop on a cotton pad and tuck it in a drawer or a bag.

Blends well with: cedarwood, bergamot, clary sage, frankincense, sweet orange
