Origin & Lore

Purification oils belong to the tradition of named condition oils, made to clear away spiritual dirt, crossed conditions and unwanted presences. This one is made for clearing the light body, the energetic body around the physical one, and for spirit chasing, driving off restless or hostile spirits.

Purge me with hyssop, and I shall be clean, says Psalm 51, and that verse has been prayed over cleansing baths in hoodoo for generations.

Hyssop appears in the Bible in rites of purification, and in hoodoo hyssop baths are paired with Psalm 51. Twentieth-century spiritual-supply houses sold purification oils and baths for cleansing crossed conditions.
