Dove Blood Ink 🩸

Uses

Dove’s blood ink is traditionally used for any type of love, blessing, friendship, reconciliation, desire, and loyalty working/spell. This ink can be used to record spells, write petitions, create sigils, etc. Blood inks (dragon blood, dove blood, bat blood) got their names because of their dark red pigment due to the type of resin used, Dracaena Cinnabari, which causes the inks to look similar to blood.

ingredients

isopropyl 99.9% alcohol

Dracaena Cinnabari resin (medieval DB resin)

a pinch of rose petal

tsp of cinnamon/cinnamon chips

1 bay leaf

a pinch of calamus root (optional)

How to make

In a glass, air tight container, add your botanicals, and then pour isopropyl alcohol over the botanicals, stir, and seal lid tightly. Store vial in a cool, dark place for at least 24 hours.

After allowing the isopropyl to infuse with your botanicals, strain the botanicals from the isopropyl so that your alcohol is now in a separate air tight glass vial (this vial will be the one you store your ink in!)

In a mortar and pestle (preferably a separate one dedicated solely to ink making), crush DB resin into small pieces and/or powder. Make sure this is real Dracaena Cinnabari resin, as this is the only DB resin that dissolves in alcohol.

Add your now crushed resin to your isopropyl that has been strained into your ink vial, and stir. Allow your resin to dissolve for at least 3 hours minimum before using ink. If you would like to strain excess pieces of non-dissolved resin from your ink, you may do so, but I prefer to keep them in the mixture. Depending on preferred consistency, you may need to add more resin and/or isopropyl. Shake/stir before each use.
