Fertility oil

Fertility magick is among the oldest recorded magick in the world, from carved figures to seeds planted under the waxing Moon.

Origin & Traditional Use

Fertility oil belongs to the family of named formula oils made for blessings of new life. It is used in candle work, prayers and charms for those hoping to conceive, as well as for creative and abundant beginnings. Many practitioners pair it with lunar timing and with saints associated with mothers.

Saint Gerard Majella, an eighteenth-century Italian lay brother, became widely venerated as patron of mothers and those hoping to conceive.
