Pine protection – Winter/yule theme

Supplies:

• Pine needles
• Sea salt 
• Black pepper
• Any type of oil/preferably coconut oil
• Moon water or regular water 
• A pinch of ashes(optional)
• Quartz or any other crystal that you believe will help. Please check to see if your crystal works well with water!
• Note: The water to oil ratio should be around 3:1 or 4:1, too much water will result in an obvious separation.

Steps: 

1. Bring a small amount of water to a boil and then add pine needles. Allow this to sit for ten minutes or more.
2. In a separate container mix together your oil, sea salt, ashes, and pepper
3. Slowly add the mixture to your pine needles and water and stir. 
4. Once everything is mixed together add your crystal.
5. Let this stand for a couple of minutes before removing the crystal and setting it aside.
6. Quickly pour your protection oil/balm into your chosen containers and allow it to cool.
7. Pray over your balm/oil and use it as you wish !

*Note: I used a cauldron of sorts so I sadly can’t tell you what level to set the fire at, and I also eyeballed all of the ingredients since I’ve done this before.
