I need to start an inventory of essential oils! I donāt have any! I would love to make this spray and the Elemental Water. I will have to research where to get these essential oils and start getting some.
This video is especially awesome! Iām getting some amber spray bottles and witch hazel (is that used as a carrier?). I have all the essential oils (big collection). Thank you again. You make being a witch FUN!
Awesome video, @SilverBear! This is perfect right now- itās so hot out there with the sun, I think itās high time for some fire magic!
The volcanoes in your video reminded me that the Roman Festival Vulcanalia honoring the god of forges, volcanoes, and fire is coming up on August 23rd! You really timed this video perfectly- thanks so much as always for sharing your knowledge!
The witch hazel is actually used to ākeep the scentā in the air longer than if you just
used plain old water. The distilled water, in this case would be the ācarrierā or the ādiluterā in this situation. I loved making these videos! Was something different for me to do - plus I was kind-of-sort-of hiding allergy eyes when I wanted to make the first video LOL
My allergies feel better now, but I had to make them all look and feel the same since I wanted it to be a series of videos on the elementals.
Itās been hot here tooā¦weāve had zero rain and are under fire warningsā¦and we arenāt allowed to water our lawns or anythingā¦water ban too! Ugh! I need to do a rain dance or something lol.
Thank you for the explanation of the purpose of the water and witch hazel. I am just learning aromatherapy and I am used to thinking about carrier oils. But, you are exactly right, water does dilute and ācarryā the oils as well! When you are learning something new it is easy to focus on one concept without thinking through the process logically. Your feedback helps.
