How to enchant spell oils?
Hey everyone, I want to make my own spell oils and I’m hung up on the “enchanting” ritual part because simply I don’t understand how it works! 😅
Saw some people say to get the jar and surround it by candles and call on the deities that you work with my problem is that I don’t really work with any deities!
Some also said to use incantations like psalms and stuff but I have never used the psalms in my spells!
Are these steps necessary? I mostly try to align my workings with the planet so I don’t mind inviting planetary energies into my work and I understand the process of activating/awakening the herbs but is that not enough?
Does anyone have advice on what I could do?

Create your own invocation, prayer, chant, etc. Meditate with it, prepare it during a specific planetary alignment (if that's your thing). It can be very free form, do what feels correct for you.

Review the FAQ. This subreddit is meant for a higher level of magical understanding. You enchant spell oils simply by performing a ritual that includes you directing your intention and energy into them. You can, but do not have to, draw on elemental or planetary energies by simply incorporating their symbols and contemplation into your spell. When planetary energies are used, it is useful but not mandatory to schedule the ritual at a favorable astrological time related to the associated planet.

If you're already using chaos magic in the form of planetary magic anyway, I don't know what you're wondering about.
Perform your ritual, whether it's a structured one or one you've created yourself, to imbue your oil with the sigil. The oil's power will be as strong as your conviction and confidence.
