Origin & Lore

Reconciliation oils belong to the hoodoo and folk magick tradition of sweetening and peace work, used to soften hard feelings and invite forgiveness. They are used for lovers, friends and families alike.

Reconciliation work is about softening, not forcing: warming a cold heart enough that the door can open again.

Reconciliation and sweetening oils were part of the stock of early twentieth-century spiritual supply houses, sold for lovers who had quarrelled and families who had fallen out.

The honey jar, in which a petition is sealed in honey or sugar, is one of the most recorded hoodoo methods for softening someone toward you.
