Infuse Your Energy: How to Set Powerful Intentions with Your Oil Blends

How to Add Your Intentions to Your Oil Blends

Oil blends are more than just their aromatic and therapeutic properties—they hold the power to amplify your intentions and elevate your spiritual practice. Whether you’ve purchased a handcrafted blend like Valour, Guard, Ascend, or Veil Essence from Shadow & Sage or made your own, setting an intention transforms your oil into a personal energetic tool.



Here’s how you can charge your oils with intention and use them to align with your desires and goals:


1. Meditate with Your Oil

Sit quietly with your chosen oil blend in your hands. Close your eyes and focus on your intention. Visualise your energy flowing from your heart and hands into the bottle, filling it with purpose. For instance:

  • For Valour, visualise yourself radiating confidence and strength.

  • For Guard, imagine a protective shield forming around you.


    Repeat your intention silently or aloud, such as, “I am confident and capable,” or “I am protected and at peace.”


2. Surround It with Crystals

Place your oil blend in a circle of crystals that correspond with your intention:

  • Valour pairs beautifully with Tiger’s Eye (confidence) or Carnelian (personal power).

  • Guard resonates with Black Tourmaline (protection) or Amethyst (spiritual shielding).

  • Ascend can be amplified with Clear Quartz (clarity) or Selenite (higher vibrations).

  • Veil Essence works well with Labradorite (spiritual connection) or Moonstone (intuition).


    Let your oil sit amongst the crystals for a few hours or overnight to infuse it with their energy.


3. Let It Rest on a Petition

Write down your intention on a piece of paper (known as a petition). Place the bottle on top of the paper, and take a moment to hold your hands over it, reaffirming your intention. For example:

  • For Ascend, write: “I seek clarity and divine connection during my meditation.”

  • For Veil Essence, write: “I open myself to guidance and communication from my higher self and spirit guides.”


    Allow the bottle to rest there for a day, or during a full or new moon to amplify its energy.


4. Speak Affirmations to Your Oil

Words are powerful. Speaking affirmations while holding your oil helps infuse it with your intention. Examples include:

  • For Valour: “I am courageous. My inner power shines brightly.”

  • For Guard: “I am surrounded by protective energy. Negative forces cannot harm me.”

  • For Ascend: “I embrace clarity and wisdom in my spiritual practice.”

  • For Veil Essence: “I am connected to divine guidance and open to meaningful connection.”


    Say these affirmations daily or whenever you feel called to work with your oil.


5. Use it in Ritual Work

Incorporate your oil blend into a larger ritual. You could:

  • Dress candles with the oil, focusing on your intention as you anoint them.

  • Add a few drops to bathwater, visualising your intention surrounding you.

  • Use it to anoint yourself, your tools, or your altar to reinforce your energy.


6. Refresh Your Intentions

Just as energy shifts and grows, so too can your intentions. Once in a while, revisit your oils and recharge them. Repeat these steps, ensuring they continue to align with your current goals and needs.


Intention Suggestions for Shadow & Sage Oil Blends

Here are some ways to align your intentions with the blends available at Shadow & Sage:

  • Valour (Road Opener, Personal Power, Confidence): Use for manifestation, business success, or when facing challenges such as public speaking or exams. Infuse with affirmations like: “I am brave, bold, and unstoppable.”

  • Guard (Energetic Protection): Perfect for shielding yourself during divination, around toxic people, or when seeking to block out negative energies. Affirm: “I am safe, grounded, and protected.”

  • Ascend (Meditation, Clarity): Ideal for enhancing manifestation, shadow work, or gaining clarity. Use with the affirmation: “I see clearly and embrace higher wisdom.”

  • Veil Essence (Connection): Designed for connecting with spirit guides, ancestors, deities, or loved ones. Use in divination or when seeking to strengthen spiritual communication. Affirm: “I am connected to divine guidance and open to meaningful connection.”


For each blend in our spiritual range, you’ll notice a unique sigil carefully designed and placed on the label. These sigils are my own creations, crafted with intention and purpose to align with the specific energies of each oil. They act as energetic anchors, weaving their magic into the blend to amplify its purpose and harmonise with your personal intentions. As you work with these oils, the sigils serve as a quiet yet powerful ally, supporting and strengthening the intentions you set, creating a deeper connection between you and the energy of the blend.


By taking these small but powerful steps, you can transform your oil blends into a potent tool for manifesting your desires and aligning with your intentions.


Remember, the energy you put into your oils is just as important as the oils themselves.
