I would like to share two combinations that I have been using over the past year. Both of these are for working with the crown and third-eye chakras. These blends are designed for spiritual connectivity and nurturing a deeper connection with the higher self.

## Hair Oil

The first is a topical oil that is designed to help with hair growth and tapping into psychic abilities. The idea is that hair acts like a bunch of tiny antennas, picking up and sending out subtle energy. This oil combines various plant-based ingredients and oils to connect hair and mind with a kind of light energy.

This energy is special because it can move through anything, carrying energy, info, and even consciousness between different places. This is believed to be a key factor in how telepathy works.

- 180 ml (approximately 3/4 cup) unrefined coconut oil
- 180 ml (approximately 3/4 cup) cold-pressed olive oil or another carrier oil of your choice
- 180 ml (approximately 3/4 cup) castor oil
- 15 ml (1 tablespoon) cold-pressed neem oil (this is optional)
- 118 ml (1/2 cup) ground fenugreek seeds (also optional)
- 45 ml (3 tablespoons) henna powder
- 45 ml (3 tablespoons) amla powder
- 5-20 ml (1-4 teaspoons) MSM powder (optional)
- 7-10 drops of rosemary oil
- 7-10 drops of peppermint oil
- 7-10 drops of lavender oil
- 7-10 drops of tea tree oil

Massage this oil into your hair roots weekly, focusing on the scalp, to stimulate the crown chakra and enhance hair health.

## Bath Ointment

This blend serves as a luxurious bath or massage ointment, incorporating dried herbs and flowers, each selected for their spiritual and therapeutic properties.

- 240 ml (1 cup) sunflower seed oil
- 30 g (2 tablespoons) beeswax
- 15 g (1 tablespoon) dried European mandrake root
- 15 g (1 tablespoon) dried mugwort
- 15 g (1 tablespoon) dried blue lotus flowers
- 15 g (1 tablespoon) dried pomegranate flowers
- 15 g (1 tablespoon) dried rose flowers
- 15 g (1 tablespoon) dried lavender flowers

Here, you can substitute dried ingredients with their oil equivalents where possible for a more concentrated blend. (I do, where I can.)

It is ideal as a massage oil or added directly to bathwater for a spiritually enriching experience.

## Preparation methods

**Infusion Method** : Combine ingredients and allow them to infuse for several weeks. This method is particularly effective for the hair oil blend.

**Heating Method** : Gently boil the ingredients for a few hours, then strain the mixture into a jar. This faster method is suitable for both blends.

Either way you go, keep your homemade blends in a cool, dark place to preserve their potency.

⚠ **Safety Reminder** : Always conduct a patch test before using new skin products, particularly when using potent ingredients like European mandrake root. These blends are for external use only.
