Ogun’s sacred oil is curojo, or red palm oil. For a change of pace, or if it is not available where you are, this recipe is one of the best I’ve ever seen for Ogun devotional oil. It was contributed by Arden of Arden’s Arcanum. Visit him on Facebook to like his page, thank him and give positive feedback.
Arden’s Ogun Oil
You will need:
- 1/2 liter grapeseed or another natural but machine-worthy oil
- Seven cloves for Eshu.
- Small handful of Vetiver roots
- 3 heaping tbps of dried coconut shreds
- 3 heaping tbps of powdered annatto
- 3 heaping tbps cumin
- Seven chunks of dragons blood resin
- One spoonful of red earth or ochre.
In a large jar, add the cloves first for Eshu.
Then lightly roast the cumin seeds.
Then add the cumin and the rest of the dry ingredients to the jar.
Put in a cold shadowy place for 4 months.
Ogun Incense
- 6 coffee beans or a spoonful of coffee grounds
- a spoonful of red earth
- a half teaspoon of iron or other metal shavings or 7 gold or silver leaves, or add a small piece of metal and bury it when you bury the cremains
- 1 tablespoon cumin
- 2 tablespoons sandalwood
- 2 tablespoons aloeswood
- a handful dragon’s blood chunks (crushed)

Crush these as well as possible in a mortar and pestle or in a food processor.
Burn in an iron pot or pan, and when finished, give the cremains back to the Earth.
