Protection oil contains essential oils of powerful protection plants, for safeguarding self, home, or possessions. Focus herb: Rosemary The number of protection is five, the five fingers of your hand, and the ruling number of the planet Mars, which governs all operations of protection and defense. Trace a pentagram (five pointed star) of this oil onto doors and windows, photos of children and loved ones, or anything that you need to be protected. Fix your protection sachet with Protection oil and tie it to your rear view mirror, to keep you alert and awake as you drive. Wear it as a personal perfume if you must go into places where crime or other dangers are present. Rosemary is used for both protection and for mental clarity and memory, so it is naturally one of the main ingredients in Protection oil. Inhale it deeply for alertness and physical energy, or use it to anoint red, white or blue candles for spells of protection. I ritually harvest my home grown Rosemary for Protection oil on Sundays in the Waxing Moon. For more potions for Protection, check out our blog article.
