Shango Devotional Incense
This incense should be used outdoors. Put it on the fire, and step back from the smoke or you will feel like you’ve been teargassed.
- a spoonful of black pepper or coffee grounds for Eshu
- 2 heaping spoonfuls of red pepper
- 2 heaping spoonfuls cinnamon
- 2 heaping spoonfuls of sandalwood powder
- 2 heaping spoonfuls of oudh/aloeswood powder
- a spoonful of millet, yam, corn, or amaranth flour
- a small handful of dragon’s blood resin chunks, powdered in a mortar and pestle
- a small handful of myrrh or copal resin, powdered
Burn on charcoal or in a roll of paper in a stone, ceramic, or pyrex type vessel, and MOVE!
Shango Devotional Oil
If it needs to be said, do not wear this on your skin as it is. You will need just a drop or two in a recipe for male attraction oil, but this is devotional oil for burning in an oil burner or consecrating or anointing Shango items.
- 6 coffee beans or a vanilla bean cut into 3 parts, or 3 peppercorns for Eshu
- 1 liter almond oil, or olive oil for lamps (the pure kind, not mixed with other oils)
- 12 dried red hot peppers
- 12 dried hot light or green peppers
- two fingers grab of tobacco
- the skin of a yam, sweet potato, or the hairs of an ear of corn
- (optional) half a gram to a gram of deer musk or the oil and dried sweat from someone who has just participated in an extreme sport or combat (it’s okay if there’s a bit of skin, hair, or blood in it)
Put the ingredients in a jar, and let stand in a cool, dry place for six months.
