As a perfume of Mars, galangal is great for building courage and learning to exercise one's will. This warming, stimulating scent was considered an aid in bedroom performance during the Middle Ages, so try incorporating it into oils of a romantic nature. In Hoodoo, where it is known as Low John, the fragrance of galangal is protective, especially in legal matters. Associated with Elemental Fire, this scent would also be ideal in Fire oils or for Fire magick in general, and it is of course an ingredient in Mather's version of Oil of Abramelin. However, if you are making Oil of Abramelin using essential oils instead of whole herbs, don't use the proportions given in the resin recipe - it wasn't written for essential oils. Instead, use your nose to judge the proportions by strength of scent. Steam-distilled from organic Alpinia galangal in Indonesia. This essential oil will sometimes crystalize. Warm the bottle in some hot water to make it pourable, but it will resolidify when it cools off. This is normal for this essential oil.
