Money Drawing Oil Recipe: How to Blend and Use It for Abundance Candles
Share
Money drawing oil is one of the most widely used and most extensively developed ritual oils in the candle magic tradition — a blend of carrier oil and botanical ingredients chosen for their specific correspondences with abundance, prosperity, financial flow, and the attraction of material resources. The money drawing oil tradition is particularly strong in Hoodoo and folk magic, where specific formulas have been developed and refined over generations of practice. This guide provides a complete money drawing oil recipe with exact measurements, instructions for blending and charging, and guidance on how to use it most effectively in candle dressing workings.
Money Drawing Oil Recipe
Base (carrier oil): 2 tablespoons sweet almond oil or jojoba oil. Essential oils: 5 drops bergamot (prosperity, success, financial flow); 3 drops cinnamon bark (speed, abundance, attraction — use sparingly, as cinnamon can irritate skin); 3 drops patchouli (earth energy, material abundance, grounding prosperity); 2 drops ginger (speed, fire energy, amplification); 2 drops vetiver (earth energy, financial stability, grounding). Botanicals (optional, for added potency): A pinch of dried basil; a pinch of dried cinnamon; a small piece of pyrite or citrine placed in the bottle to charge the oil continuously.
Blending Instructions
Step 1: Choose a small, dark glass bottle (amber or cobalt blue) to protect the oil from light degradation. Step 2: Add the carrier oil to the bottle. Step 3: Add the essential oils one at a time, swirling gently between each addition. Step 4: Add the dried botanicals if using. Step 5: Hold the bottle in both hands, close the eyes, and spend 2–3 minutes directing the intention of financial abundance into the oil — visualizing money flowing freely and abundantly into your life. Speak the intention aloud over the oil: "This oil draws abundance, prosperity, and financial flow to all who use it with clear intention." Step 6: Leave the bottle in sunlight for 1–2 hours or in moonlight overnight to complete the charging process.
How to Use Money Drawing Oil in Candle Dressing
Use a green candle (abundance, prosperity) or a gold candle (success, solar energy). Apply the money drawing oil from the bottom of the candle toward the top (drawing abundance toward you). Roll the oiled candle in dried basil and cinnamon. Place citrine or pyrite crystals in a ring around the base. Light on a Thursday (Jupiter's day) during the waxing moon for maximum effectiveness. Speak the abundance intention aloud before lighting.
