Origin & Lore

This oil takes its name from the shaman, the spirit-walker of Siberian and other traditions, and from the woods of the forest. It is made for protection, strength and mystical power, and especially for charging talismans. It belongs with modern scented ritual oils rather than with any specific indigenous practice.

The word shaman came into European languages through Russian from the Evenki people of Siberia, where it named the spirit-worker of the community.

The Evenki word šaman was brought to Europe in the seventeenth century by Russian explorers and travellers. Talismans and amulets for protection are among the oldest magickal objects known, from Egyptian scarabs to Roman phallic charms.
