What is Abramelin Oil
Abramelin oil is an oil blend used for ceremonial purposes. The recipe is an adaptation from the Jewish Holy Oil of the Tanakh and appears in the mediaeval grimoire called “The Book of the Sacred Magic of Abramelin the Mage” written by Abraham of Worms. It was popularised and brought into the modern era by practitioners of the occult Aleister Crowley and SL McGregor Mathers.

I’d be nervous to add more cinnamon if I haven’t any Cassia oil especially if it’s adding to more cinnamon. I’d also would use it sparingly since cinnamon is potent and can have a burning aspect….at least from my experience from working with cinnamon ain any kinds of anointing recipes. I often stick with frankincense and myrrh as my anointing oil.

Cinnamon is commonly used as replacement for Cassia when making Abramelin Oil as it comes from the same family and has similar properties. Its supposed to sting and have a kick to it as a ceremonial anointing oil and should be used sparingly as Crowrley wrote “it should burn and thrill through the body with an intensity as of fire.” – Magick, Book 4, p.60.
I’ve been making various anointing oils for years since I studied aromatherapy and this one is a specific oil used by ceremonial magicians (predominately Golden Dawners and Thelemites) to anoint their tools and in some specific rituals.
