Black Henbane Flying Ointment⠀⠀ Since the Middle Ages, known as the "Witches Plant", Henbane has been used by practitioners and healers in ritual purifications by smoke, in addition to the preparation of flying ointments and love philtres. Ancient times saw Henbane used for ritual purposes in Europe 34 separate alkaloids have been discovered in Black Henbane. Most focused upon today are hyoscine, hyoscyamine, and atropine. One recorded experience states: "I experienced an intoxicating sensation of flying…I soared where my hallucinations—the clouds, the lowering sky, herds of beasts, falling leaves…billowing streamers of steam and rivers of molten metal—were swirling along.” Henbane has long since been used for communicating with the deceased. Black Henbane has consistently been reported as one of the “witches herbs” included in flying ointments.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Henbane aids with depression, hindered libido, insomnia, headaches, carpal tunnel, menstrual cramps, motion sickness, arthritis, & muscle and joint pain.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Henbane is a nervine relaxant, immediately targeting the nervous system, aiding to calming of nerves, reducing psychological & physical strain.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ A larger dose of ointment helps to induce sleep, acting as a sedative.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Historically, Henbane was a fundamental part of the “soporific sponge”, which was used as an anesthetic before surgical procedures.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Plant material(s) for this ointment is grown, harvested, infused, and poured by me. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Ingredients include Black Henbane (hyoscyamus niger), poplar buds, organic sunflower oil, and candelilla, vegan wax. ⠀⠀⠀ *For educational purposes; sold as a curio only.

Thinning the Veil Flying Ointment⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀ Liminal Space is that area in between planes where anything and everything seems possible. As a practitioner, our space often teeters on the edge of societal normality and that of nature and spirits that we seek to connect with. Liminal gets its origins from the Latin root, limen, literally translating to "threshold".⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀ Sure, we have access to all the experiences and possibilities that we could ever wish to access, and to many of the allies that we seek access to, but such relationships must be nurtured with full intent. If you want to connect with a spirit in the liminal space, it is a must to seek that spirit out; to walk through the veil separating this world from that.⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀ I have created this flying ointment to help you do just that; helping to thin the veil--the ethereal curtain between our physical world and the spiritual realm.⠀⠀⠀ By allowing and encouraging a thinning of the veil, more of your truth is revealed and you open yourself to experiencing life beyond physical constraints, allowing one to awaken to higher consciousness and direct spiritual experience.⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀ This ointment is amazing when paired with meditation or spiritual work of any nature. It allows you to relax more completely, and eases the natural, spiritual veil between where we are and where we've yet to be.⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀ Blue Lotus, Opium Lettuce, Jasmine, Belladonna, Datura Innoxia, and Mugwort--vegan formula *For educational purposes; sold as a curio only.

Witchcraft & Necromancy Flying Ointment⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Necromancy gets its earliest origins from the Greek word, nekros, which translates to "dead body", and manteia, which translates to "divination". Combined, that gives us, “divination by the dead”.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ While historically, there were certainly some gruesome rituals that took place for the sake of communicating with the dead, I believe it has become a much more respected practice, modern day. Today, modern necromancers work with the energy of the dead, rather than attempting to reanimate them, therefore avoiding the desecration of the final resting site and/or the morbidity of unearthing a body.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ While others might disagree, I consider ancestor-work a form of necromancy. While most of us don't go around digging up bodies and attempting to reanimate them, many of us do seek to communicate with loved ones that are no longer physically in this realm; at least not in the same sense that you and I are. I have created this ointment with this exact desire in mind.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ No matter what terminology you are most comfortable using, this ointment will help you bridge the distance between our physical world and the realm in which our loved ones are found.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ I am of the personal belief that the dead can lead the living into a realm of understanding. I believe there are certain tasks and problems that we face, in which the most beneficial advice and guidance we can receive comes from asking the spirit of a passed loved one.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ This flying ointment is full of necromantic herbs, also useful for hedge-work, transformation, death/spirit work, including Fly Agaric, Yew, Blue Lotus, Klip Dagga, and Opium Lettuce.⠀ *For educational purposes; sold as a curio only.

Fly Agaric Witches Flying Ointment⠀ ⠀ Brush off those besoms, Witches. It's time to fly!⠀ ⠀ The solanaceae family allows one’s body to feel separated from the individual; the traveler endures intoxicating sensations, including a sensation akin to flying.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Fly agaric is reported to offer the user a feeling of weightlessness, visual and auditory hypersensitivity, space distortion, unawareness of time, and colored hallucinations; feelings of euphoria or invincibility are also oftentimes reported; also used as a sedative aid, leading to a deep sleep with vivid dreams. Ancient tribes and civilizations used hallucinogenic fungi to enter the spirit world.⠀⠀⠀ ⠀ These mushrooms also alter the perception of sight, sounds, etc., (the senses) and change/enhance the feelings and thoughts of the user.⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Just like my original witches flying ointment, this ointment contains the powerhouse Solanaceae properties of Datura, Atropa Belladonna, Mandrake, and Blk Henbane. Solanaceae relieves chronic pain, joint pain, nerve pain, muscle spasms and cramps, anxiety, issues with sleep, and can aid in restoring lost libido.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ This formulation also contains the properties of Fly Agaric, a member of the Basidiomycete group of fungi, containing a number of psychoactive compounds: ibotenic acid, muscimol, muscarine, and muscazone (Muscimol is the most significant).⠀⠀⠀⠀ “These statements have not been evaluated by the Food and Drug Administration.

Mandrake Flying Ointment Please note, as I grow my own Baneful plants, I have and will continue to have an ample amount and supply of Belladonna, Henbane, Datura, and Mandrake medicines. Mandragora Officinarum⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ "Betwixt sleep and poison, mandragora makes magic"⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Known as the plant of Hekate, the mandragora root is consecrated to the chthonic deity of the Underworld, Hekate.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Historically, Witches would make an alliance with the plant spirit, to act as a vessel for spirits or familiars to live within, to absorb a life threatening disease from an afflicted person, therefore saving the person's life, and to absorb demons/spirits from a possessed individual-- saving the afflicted person's life, upon destruction of the root, sending the unwanted back where they belong.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Germanic seeresses, known for their miraculous abilities, would enter a prophetic ecstasy w/the aid of such magical agents as mandrake, and shamanic techniques. "Master of life breath" "The most famous magical plant in history" (Herser, 1987)⠀⠀⠀ Great for witches flight & spirit communication.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ A member of the Solanaceae family, the mandrake plant is helpful for arthritis, abscesses, inflammation of the eyes or skin, anxiety, discharge, swollen glands, depression, uterine inflammation, painful joints, complications during labor, ulcers, tumors, hemorrhoids, impotence, cramps, headaches, liver pains, stomach ailments, menstrual problems, spleen pains, amenorrhea, sleeplessness, infertility, wounds, toothaches, and general injuries.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ I recommend Mandrake as an aphrodisiac, as it is safe to apply to mucous membranes.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Properties include anti-inflammatory, analgesic, anesthetic, antispasmodic, antisialagogue, antidepressant, anti-anxiety, aphrodisiac, euphoria inducer, anti-nausea, anticholinergic, and sleep aid.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Mandrake, sunflower oil, poplar buds, and vegan Candelilla wax⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #thejaggedpath #mandrake #poisonpath #poisonousplants #flyingointment #aphrodisiac #medicinalnightshades #folkmagic #wisewoman (at Galveston, Texas) https://www.instagram.com/p/Cm82PvEOBVB/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
