A simple blend of precisely measured genuine Mandrake root (atropa mandragora), rich grapeseed oil, and high quality filtered beeswax. Mandrake is the best traditional flying ointment ingredient for beginners – it is friendlier than its more deadly solanaceae cousins and has pleasant side effects (unlike datura and belladonna). Anoint yourself at the third eye, the top and base of the spine, the armpits, or the soles of your feet to aid in divinatory rites, sabbat rites, spellwork, spiritwork, shapeshifting, trancework, transvection, and your full and dark moon rites. Due to its ancient association with Aphrodite and aphrodisiac properties, this Mandrake Ointment is excellent for use in sex magic.
Prometheus, messenger of the gods, supposedly taught Medea how to make an ointment from Mandrake root which she crafted for Jason to help him steal the golden fleece in the ancient tale of Jason and the Argonauts. Mandrake sprung up from the ichor, god blood, of Prometheus during his time in punishment by Zeus for creating the human race. In Greek mythology Mandrake is sacred to Prometheus, Persephone, Hecate, Aphrodite, and the witches Circe and Medea and can be used to in/evoke any deity or to speak with the spirits of plants, animals, or the ancestors.
Mandrake was the favourite plant of the masses up until the late Middle Ages before folk magic was outlawed by the church. It was used for any and all magics and rituals – for love, lust, fertility, health, prosperity, protection, exorcism, and even to aid in sleep. Besides applying to yourself, this magical ointment can be used to anoint candles, statuary, charms, magical herb sachets, ritual tools, or money in your wallet (it is said Mandrake doubles whatever amount of money it is near). The ancient Greeks called ointments ambrosia, the food of the gods, and they were once used to anoint deities’ statues as offerings.
