About the Magical Items
I am going to give a brief synopsis of different magical items and the common interchangable terms that are used for each. This list is by no means complete and will only have the most common names of the items.
Amulets - These are known as amulets, charms, juju, or ju-ju, periapt, root charms. Talismans are commonly referred to as amulets but they are two different things. Amulets are mainly used as curative, preventive and protective powers. There are basically two types objects and the kind that are written. these can be carried in a pocket, worn around the neck, or other parts of the body, they can also be hung on a wall.
Candles - these are a very popular form of magic most modern day practioners use candles made from paraffin (which is a petroleum based wax} because they are widespread and very easy to obtain. The magic that i do here is ancient magic and i use candles made from tallow which is animal fat, or beeswax which is a natural wax. The casting done with animal fat, beeswax or other natural ingedients are much more powerful than candle magic cast with paraffin.

Essential oils - these are extracted from botanicals using different methods, steam distillation, liquid extraction Etc. Essential oils are generally prepared by distillation to make the natural oils in a plant substance very concentrated. It takes a very large quantity of plant material to make just a very small amount of essential oils. This is why essential oils can be very expensive. Essential oils are very common in spell casting and have been used for centuries in china, egypt and the middle east. The magic that i cast here i use only pure Essential oils in the spell casting.
Flower Essence Remedies- these are water infused essences of plants. These are commonly used in various methods spell casting.
Fragrance oils - these are synthetic oils that are man made. These are commonly used for dressing candles and other spell casting.
Incense - These are made using botanicals dried plants and oils. These are used for many different things in spell casting. I only use pure natural incense with no synthetic fillers in the spell casting that i do here.
True oils - these are known as carrier oils, fixed oils and base oils. true oils are basically extracted from the seeds and fruits of plants. these are used in spell casting much the same way that essential oils are. Unlike essential oils true oils do not evaporate completeley and will become rancid over time.
Talisman - These are known as amulets, engraved amulets, charms, root charms. Amulets are commonly referred to Talismans, but they are two different things. Talismans are generally used to draw specific things to you. There are basically two types objects and the kind that are written. these can be carried in a pocket, worn around the neck, or other parts of the body, they can also be hung on a wall.
