Bayberry in American Folk Magic
Bayberry is one of the most enduring prosperity scents in American folk magic. The bayberry candle tradition, burning a bayberry candle on Christmas Eve or New Year’s Eve to draw wealth and good fortune in the coming year, is documented across New England.
The waxy, slightly green, resinous scent of bayberry has become synonymous with prosperity candles in the American esoteric tradition. AzureGreen’s 2-dram bayberry oil brings that correspondence into a liquid ritual format, useful for practitioners who want to anoint money candles, petition papers, or green flannel bags.
Practical Use in Prosperity Workings
Bayberry oil is applied to green candles, petition papers folded around coins or bills, and lodestones set to draw money. It pairs well with cinnamon, patchouli, bergamot, and high john root oil in prosperity blends. The oil is also used in Yule altar preparations, anointing candles and evergreen decorations to invite abundance.
For a straightforward money-drawing working, apply bayberry oil to a green taper from the base to the wick and burn it on a Thursday during a waxing moon. Write your financial intention on a piece of paper, fold it toward you three times, anoint the folds with bayberry oil, and place it beneath the candle holder.
How to Use Bayberry Ritual Oil
Three practical approaches to bayberry oil in prosperity and seasonal ritual work.
- Dress a Money Candle
Apply 1-2 drops of bayberry oil to a green taper candle from base to wick, drawing the oil toward you to invite money. Place the candle on a piece of green paper with your financial intention. Burn on a Thursday.
- Anoint a Petition Paper
Write your financial goal on paper, then fold it toward yourself three times. Apply one drop of bayberry oil to each fold. Place the petition beneath a green candle or inside a green flannel charm bag with a coin.
- Prepare a Yule Prosperity Blend
Combine bayberry oil with a drop of cinnamon and a drop of patchouli in a small carrier oil base. Use this blend to anoint Yule candles or evergreen decorations, and carry a small anointed coin as a talisman.
