The notorious
"Witches Flying Ointment"
A dangerous herbal concoction producing psychedelic effects,
was said to be used by Witches in the Middle Ages.
It consisted mainly of parsley, hemlock,
water of aconite, poplar leaves, soot, bat's blood,
deadly nightshade (or belledonna).
Henbane & Hashish.
In a large cauldron over a fire, these ingredients would be mixed
together with the melted fat of an unbaptised infant
and then rubbed on various parts of a
Witch's body to enable her to 'fly' off to the Sabbat.
Of course, Witches didn't really fly, however,
the ointment did induce incredible hallucinations,
psychic visions and astral projection.
Here is a modern Witch's flying ointment recipe.
It is safer to use and much easier to concoct
1/4 cup lard
1/2 tsp clove oil
1 tsp chimney soot
1/4 tsp dried cinquefoil
1/4 tsp dried mugwort
1/4 tsp dried thistle
1/4 tsp dried vervain
1/2 tsp benzoin tincture
Using a mortar and pestle, crush the dried herbs
until almost powdered.
In a small cauldron or saucepot, heat the lard over a low flame
until it is melted completely.
Add the herbs, the clove oil and chimney soot
Mix well
Add the benzoin as a natural preservative
Stir together clockwise
Simmer for 10 to 15 minutes
Strain it through cheesecloth into a small heat resistant container and then allow it to cool
Store it in refrigerator or a cool dark place until it is ready to be used
On a night of the Full Moon,
anoint your temples and Third Eye with a small amount of the flying ointment prior to astral projection or dream magick
NOTE:
FOR EXTERNAL USE ONLY!!!
