Raphael the Archangel Oil: Four Archangels Esoteric Series

N.B. Please note handling times for this esoteric oil series start at 10 business days.

This oil is part of my "Four Archangels" series of esoteric/biblical oils. In the esoteric traditions to which this oil belongs, you can use it to call on Raphael for healing, blessing, protection (esp. while traveling), expelling demons, and marriage and conjugal relations, even if -- and perhaps especially if -- the marriage is somehow crossed or associated with a particular difficulty.

Raphael is also associated with prophecy, success, influence, learning and memory, skill in communication, and in some cases mastery of foreign languages. In this series he's associated with the East, with Mercury, and the element of Air. His day is Wednesday.

High-quality, hand-blended, and magically charged esoteric angel oils contain pure essential oils and natural herbs, resins, and minerals associated with each angel.  These oils are made in accordance with esoteric, qabalistic, and biblical lore. While these are not strictly speaking traditional conjure oils, they do not use herbal or mineral correspondences that conflict with those of traditional hoodoo, either, so you're not going to end up with an incoherent melange of eclecticism-gone-wild if you use this oil along with, say, a hoodoo blessing or marriage oil.

The ingredients have been prized for millenia in devotional usage as well as perfumery. These formulas are derived from the study of scripture, both canonical and apocryphal; extensive work with angels in Western hermetic traditions (I did all that fancy robe-wearing-and-initiation stuff for a couple of decades); a tremendous amount of research, significant chunks of it borne of my own translations and some of which has been published; and a lot of very expensive trial and error and testing with herbs, oils, resins, absolutes, and powders.

Unlike with conjure oils, few of the ingredients in my esoteric series are native to the region I grew up in, or indeed to this continent, and they must be imported. In some cases, the prices have skyrocketed over the last 10 years as essential oils have exploded in popularity, species have become threatened by overharvesting, and climate change has affected production.

So please understand that I cannot keep large quantities of some of these essential oils and absolutes on hand because they are incredibly expensive. That's why the handling time for this series starts at 10 business days. On the off chance that I get a few orders in back to back that exhaust my supplies of a pricier oil, I might be waiting on a new shipment from my supplier when your order comes in, for example. 10 business days should cover anything like that, but if it looks like there's a significant delay beyond the published 10 business day handling time, I'll email you.
