Origin & Lore

All Purpose oil is a general blessing and anointing oil in the condition-oil tradition, meant for any work that lacks a specific formula. It is used to bless a person or object, to increase the potency of a spell and to bring protection, luck and good fortune.

Every working altar needs one bottle that can go anywhere, and in the old formularies that was the all-purpose oil.

Spiritual-supply catalogs of the twentieth century sold dozens of narrowly named oils, but most also offered a general blessing oil for customers who wanted one bottle for every need. In hoodoo, feeding a mojo bag with a few drops of oil each week is a well-documented custom to keep it alive and working.
