Level 1: Formulation of Ritual Incense
In this workshop we will discuss a variety of basic techniques one may work with to assist ones inspiration in the creation of magical formularies. I will demonstrate some basic examples of the type of research process one must embark upon when considering and selecting ingredients to use in herbal magical potions, incense and oils. Together we will formulate an incense blend using these techniques, resulting in a group ritual incense formulation, which you will take home with you.
