 Oil
for Exu
Over a decade ago, a customer
requested oils and incenses for Exu and Pomba Gira. Although our founder Harold Roth
was not very familiar with the latter (he had bought de Frisvold's book
on her but hadn't read it yet), he felt some connection to Exu on
account of a series of dreams he'd had some years ago. Exu as manifested
in Kimbanda (Quimbanda) is found at the crossroads and is a
trickster/teacher/master of magic. He demands much of his followers, in
particular, self-knowledge and self-mastery (in other words, no BS allowed with
him).The customer and Harold worked together to come up with possible
ingredients for the oils and incense, and then Harold developed a formulae
based on this information, practice, and intuition. The magic oil for
Exu took a number of versions and tinkering before Harold felt he got it right. This oil begins with
a base of coffee and tobacco, both important for honoring this powerful
spirit. We then add the characteristic warmth connected with Exu's Fire
aspects in the form of black pepper, cinnamon, and cloves. This blend is sweetened it with honey and a few more ingredients that bring it together.
