Incense

Incense is virtually a necessity in magickal practice, but there been great mystery surrounding its composition. With practice it's surprisingly easy to make.

The Two Forms of Incense

Incense is virtually a necessity in magickal practice, but there seems to be a great mystery surrounding its composition. Fortunately with practice, it, surprisingly, can be easily made.

Two types of incense are used in magic: the combustible and the non-combustible. The former contains potassium nitrate (saltpeter) to aid in burning, while the latter does not. Therefore combustible incense can be burned in the form of bricks, cones, sticks and other shapes, whereas non-combustible incense must be sprinkled onto glowing charcoal blocks to release its fragrance. Ninety-five percent of the incense used in magick is the non-combustible, raw or granular type. Why? Perhaps because it's easier to make. Herbal magicians are notoriously practical people.

Also, some spells (particularly divinatory or evocational rites) call for billowing clouds of smoke. Since cone, stick and block incense burn at steady rates, such effects are impossible with their use.

The advantages of combustible incense can outweigh its drawbacks, depending on circumstance. Need to burn some money drawing incense for an unexpected ritual? You could take out the censer, a charcoal block and the incense, light the charcoal, place it in the censer and sprinkle incense onto it. Or you could with your ritual.

Rules of Combustible Incense Composition

Here are some guidelines to follow when compounding combustible incense. These are for use with the Cone Incense Base #2 recipe below. If they aren't followed, the incense won't properly burn. There's less room for experimentation here than with non-combustible incenses.

First, never use more than ten percent saltpeter. Never! Also, keep woods (such as sandalwood, wood aloe, cedar, juniper and pine) and gum resins (frankincense, myrrh, benzoin, copal) in the proper proportions: at least twice as much powdered wood as resins. If there's more resinous matter, the mixture won't burn.

Naturally, depending on the type of incense you're adding to the base, you may have to juggle some proportions accordingly. Simply ensure that frankincense and its kin never constitute more than one-third of the final mixture, and all should be fine.

Though this doesn’t cover all aspects of combustible incense making, it should provide you with enough guidelines to make your own. Experiment, but keep the above rules in mind at all time.

Combustible Incense

Combustible incense (cones, blocks and sticks) is fairly complex in its composition, but the results may be worth the extra work. This aspect of incense composition isn't effortless. Some of the ingredients are difficult to obtain, the procedure tends to be messy and frustration, and some even question whether combustible incense is as magically effective as its non-combustible counterpart. Some will hesitated making or using sticks, cones or blocks because they contain potassium nitrate. This substance is magically related to Mars, and you may feel this might add unneeded aggressive energies to the incense. But when considering that the charcoal blocks used to burn non-combustible incense also contain saltpeter, you may relent and experiment.

At first, making combustible incense may seem impossible to accomplish. But persevere and you'll be rewarded with the satisfaction of lighting incense cones you've made yourself.

Gum tragacanth glue or mucilage is the basic ingredient of all molded incenses. Gum tragacanth is available at some herb stores; at one time in the past every drugstore carried it. It is rather expensive, but a little will last for months.

To make tragacanth glue, place a teaspoon of the ground herb in a glass of warm water. Mix thoroughly until all particles are dispersed. To facilitate this, place in a bowl and whisk or beat with an eggbeater. This will cause foam to rise, but it may be easily skimmed off or allowed to disperse. The gum tragacanth has enormous absorption qualities; an ounce will absorb up to one gallon of water in a week.

Let the tragacanth absorb the water until it becomes a thick bitter-smelling paste. The consistency of the mixture depends on the form of incense desired. For sticks (the most difficult kind to formulate) the mixture should be relatively thin. For blocks and cones thicker mucilage should be made. This is where practice comes in handy after a session or two you will automatically know when the mucilage is at the correct consistency.

If tragacanth can’t be found, try using gum Arabic in its place. This, too, absorbs water. All reports say it works as well as tragacanth. When you have made the tragacanth glue, cover with a wet cloth and set aside. It will continue to thicken as it sits, so if it becomes to thick add a bit of water and stir thoroughly.
Next, put together the incense base. Not all formulas found here may be used for combustible incense; actually most of them are designed to be used as non-combustible incenses. Fortunately, by adding the incense to a base it should work well. Here's one standard formula for an incense base:

CONE INCENSE BASE

6 parts ground Charcoal (not self-igniting)
1 part ground Benzoin
2 parts ground Sandalwood
1 part ground Orris root (to fix the scent)
6 drops essential oil (use the oil form of one of the ingredients in the incense)
2 to 4 parts mixed, empowered incense

Mix the first four ingredients until well blended. Add the drops of essential oil and mix again with your hands. The goal is to create a powdered mixture with a fine texture. If you wish, run the mixture through a grinder or the mortar again until it is satisfactory.

Add two to four parts of the completed and empowered incense mixture (created according to the instructions for non-combustible incense above). Combine well using your hands.

Next, using a small kitchen scale, weigh the completed incense and add ten percent potassium nitrate. (If you've made ten ounce of incense, add once ounce potassium nitrate.) Mix this until the white powder is thoroughly blended. Saltpeter should constitute no more than ten percent of the completed bulk of the incense. If any more is added, it will burn too fast; less and it might not burn at all.

Potassium nitrate isn't difficult to obtain. It usually can be found at drug stores (it isn't usually on the shelf; ask for it at the pharmacy). If you have no luck, try chemical supply stores.

Next, add the tragacanth glue. Do this a teaspoon at a time, mixing with your hands in a large bowl until all ingredients are wetted. For cone incense you'll need a very stiff, dough-like texture. If it is too thick it won't form into cones properly and will take forever to dry. The mixture should mold easily and hold its shape.

On a piece of waxed paper, shape the mixture into basic cone shape, exactly like the one you purchase. If this form isn't used, the incense may not burn properly.

Once shaped, let it dry for two to seven days in a warm place. Your incense is finished.

For block incense make a 1/3 inch-thick square of the stiff dough on waxed paper. Cut with a knife into one-inch cubes as if you were cutting small brownies. Separate slightly and let dry.

Stick incense can be attempted as well. Add more tragacanth glue to the mixed incense and base until the mixture is wet but still rather thick. The trick here is in determining the proper thickness of the incense/tragacanth mixture and in finding appropriate materials to use. Professional incense manufacturers use thin bamboo splints. Try homemade wooden or bamboo splints, broom straws, very thin twigs, or those long wooden cocktail skewers that are available at some grocery and oriental food stores. Dip the sticks into the mixture, let them sit upright and then dip again.

Several dippings are usually necessary, this is a most difficult process. When the sticks have accumulated a sufficient amount of the incense, poke them into a slab of clay or other substance so that they stand upright. Allow them to dry.

One variation on stick incense making uses stiffer incense dough. Pat down the dough on waxed paper until it is very thin. Place the stick on the dough. Roll a thin coating of dough around the stick. The incense shouldn't be more than twice the thickness of the stick. Squeeze or press it onto the stick so that it will stay put, let dry.

The inclusion of charcoal in this recipe may be distasteful and unnecessary. It makes it imperative that you wash your hands numerous times throughout this process. Traditional charcoal also lends a peculiar odor to the incense. This is another recipe:

CONE INCENSE BASE #2

6 parts powdered Sandalwood (or Cedar, Pine, Juniper)
2 parts powdered Benzoin (or Frankincense, Myrrh, etc.)
1 part ground Orris Root
6 drops essential oil (use the oil form of one of the incense ingredients)
3 to 5 parts empowered incense mixture

In this recipe, powdered wood is used in place of the charcoal. Use sandalwood if it's included in the incense recipe. If not, use cedar, pine or juniper, depending on the type of incense to be made. Try to match the wood base of this incense to the incense's recipe. If you can't, simply use sandalwood. Mix the first three ingredients until combined. Add the oil and mix again. Then add three to five parts of the completed incense to this. Again, this should be a powder. Weigh and add ten percent potassium nitrate. Mix, add the gum tragacanth glue, combine again and mold in the methods described above.

Non-combustible Incense

Be sure you have all necessary ingredients. If you lack any, decide on substitutions. Each ingredient must be finely ground, preferably to a powder, using either a mortar and pestle or an electric grinder. Some resins won't powder easily, but with practice you'll find the right touch. When all is ready, set your mind on the incense's goal—protection, love, or health. In a large wooden or ceramic bowl, mix the resins and gums together with your hands. While mingling these fragrant substances, also mix their energies. Visualize your personal power-vibrating with your magickal goal-exiting your hands and entering the incense, It is this that makes homemade incense more effective than the commercial counterparts.

Next, mix in all the powdered leaves, barks, flowers and roots. As you mix, continue to visualize of concentrate on the incense's goal. Now add any oils or liquids (wine, honey, etc.) that are included in the recipe. Just a few drops are usually sufficient.

On the subject of oils: If there's a sufficient amount of dry ingredients in the recipe, you can substitute an oil for an herb you lack. Simply ensure that the oil is essential oil, for synthetics smell like burning plastic when smoldered. Once all has been thoroughly mixed, add any powdered gemstones or other power boosters. A few of the following recipes call for a pinch of powdered stone.

To produce this, simply take a small stone of the required type and pound it in a metal mortar and pestle (or simply smash it with a hammer against a hard surface.) Grind the resulting pieces into a powder and add no more than the scantest pinch to the incense. One general power-boosting stone is amber. A pinch of this fossilized resin added to any mixture will increase its effectiveness.

The incense is now fully compounded. Empower the incense and it is done. Store in a tightly capped jar. Label carefully, including the name of the incense and the date of composition. It is ready for use when needed.

Incense Materials

Incenses are composed of a variety of leaves, flowers, roots, barks, woods, resins, gums and oils. Semiprecious stones may also be added to incenses to lend their energies to the mixture, much as emeralds were once burned in fires by ancient Meso-American peoples.

Out of the literally hundreds of potential incense ingredients perhaps 14 are most frequently used. Keep a stock of these hers on hand if you plan to make several incenses. These might include:

Frankincense
Pine needles or resin (pitch)
Myrrh
Juniper
Benzoin
Sandalwood
Copal
Cedar
Rose Petals
Thyme
Bay
Basil
Cinnamon
Rosemary

Be aware that many plants smell quite different when being smoldered. Sweet scents turn sour quickly.

If you wish, take a large number of dried and finely ground plant substances (flowers, leaves, bark, roots) and drop a small portion of each herb onto a hot charcoal block; then decide whether the scent is pleasing or not. You might make a notion of each botanical and its scent in a special notebook reserved for this purpose or on three-by-five-inch cards. Also note any psychic or other sensations you notice with each burning herb. In this way you'll eventually build up a thorough knowledge of incense materials, which will aid you in your herbal magic.

Do remember that, as surprising as it sounds, scent isn't a factor in magickal incense, except very generally; sweet odors are usually used for positive magickal goals, while foul scents are used for banishing rituals. Scent is power. It allows us to slip into ritual consciousness, thereby allowing us to raise power, infuse it with the proper energies, and send it forth toward the magickal goal. However, not all magickal incenses smell sweet. Some have strong, resinous odors; others, intensely bitter scents. Incenses intended for ritual use are blended to provide the proper energies during magickal operations - not to smell pleasing to the human nose.

Don't let this scare you away from incense, however. Most of our associations with pleasant and foul odors are learned, and our noses aren't as capable of determining various scents as they should be. Retrain your nose to accept exotic scents, and the art of incense burning will become a joy, not something to be tolerated for the sake of magick. Occult supply stores stock incense intended for use in magick. Many rare blends can be purchased for a few dollars. While these are magically effective, you may wish to make some of your own.

Incense Papers

Incense papers are a delightful variation of combustible incense. Rather than using charcoal and gum tragacanth, tinctures and paper are the basic ingredients. When finished you'll have produced several strips of richly scented paper that can be smoldered with a minimum of fuss.

To make incense papers, take a piece of white blotter paper and cut it into six-inch strips about an inch wide. Next, add one and one-half teaspoons potassium nitrate to one half cup very warm water. Stir until the saltpeter is completely dissolved. Soak the paper strips in the saltpeter solution until thoroughly saturated. Hang them up to dry. You now have paper version of the charcoal blocks used to burn incense.

The obstacle in scenting them is to overcome the normal smell of burning paper. For this reason, heavy fragrances should be used, such as tinctures. Tinctures compounded from gums and resins seem to produce the best results. Essential oils used to scent incense papers will be without much success. Empower the tincture(s) with your magickal need, and then pour a few drops of the tincture onto one stripe of paper. Smear this over the paper and add more drops until it is completely coated on one side. Hang the strip up to dry and store in labeled, airtight containers until needed. To speed drying, turn on the oven to a low temperature, leave the door open, and place the soaked incense papers on the rack. Remove them when dry. Generally speaking, incense papers should be made with one tincture rather than mixtures. But, once again, try various formulas until you come up with positive results.

To use incense papers, simply remove one paper and hold it above your censer. Light one tip with a match, and after it is completely involved in flame, quickly blow it out. Place the glowing paper in your censer and let it smolder, visualizing or working your magickal ritual. Incense papers should burn slowly and emit a pleasant scent, but again your results will vary according to the strength of the tincture and the type of paper used. Plain unscented incense papers could be used in place of charcoal blocks. For this purpose soak the papers in the potassium nitrate solution and let dry, then set one alight in the censer. Sprinkle a thin layer of the incense over the paper. As it burns the paper will also smolder your incense. You may have difficulty in keeping incense paper lit. The secret here is to allow air to circulated below the papers. You can ensure this by either placing the paper on some heatproof object in the censer, or by filling the censer with salt or sand all the way to its end. Incense papers are a simple and enjoyable alternative to normal combustible incense.
