Magnet Oil and the Conjure Tradition of Drawing Work
In Southern conjure and rootwork, “drawing” is one of the most fundamental categories of magical work. The practitioner isn’t pushing toward a goal, they’re creating conditions that pull the desired outcome toward them. Magnet oil sits squarely in this tradition, using aromatic compounds traditionally associated with attraction and magnetic pull to dress candles, anoint charms, and feed mojo bags intended to bring things closer: money, opportunity, people, circumstances. The name makes the intent plain, and the formula has been part of the Espiritu line for decades.
The oil-based drawing formula differs meaningfully from working with a physical lodestone or magnetic sand. A lodestone is a mineral tool you feed and maintain over time, building a relationship with it as a charm object. Magnet oil is the anointing medium, the liquid component that carries the drawing intention onto candles, papers, and bags. Some practitioners use both together, feeding a lodestone with magnetic sand while dressing the candle above it with Magnet oil to create a layered drawing setup. Others rely on the oil alone as a simple, portable option for drawing work.
How Practitioners Apply Magnet Oil in Drawing Spells
In candle magic, the direction of anointing matters. To draw something toward you, practitioners typically stroke the oil from the base of the candle up toward the wick, pulling the intent inward. Green candles for money, pink for love and relationships, and gold for general success are the most common pairings with a drawing formula like Magnet oil. A petition paper anointed with Magnet oil and placed beneath a green candle is one of the most straightforward money-drawing setups recorded in hoodoo tradition.
Magnet oil is also well-suited for anointing the wallet, purse, or cash register in a business setting, techniques documented in Southern folk magic literature as a way to “magnetize” the vessel for money. For love or people-drawing work, some practitioners dab a small amount on a personal item belonging to them before going out, or anoint a written name paper with it before adding it to a honey jar. These are ritual fragrance oils, not essential oils formulated for skin care or aromatherapy. If you need an essential oil for topical or diffuser use, browse my essential oils collection.
How to Use Espiritu Magnet Oil
Three ways to use Espiritu Magnet oil in conjure drawing work, candle magic, and mojo bag practice.
- Dress a Drawing Candle
Select a candle color matching your goal: green for money, pink for love, gold for opportunity. Apply Magnet oil by stroking upward from base to wick to pull your desired outcome toward you. Set a clear petition before lighting.
- Anoint a Wallet or Money Vessel
Place two drops of Magnet oil on your fingertip and lightly rub the inside of your wallet, purse, or cash envelope. This traditional conjure technique is intended to magnetize the vessel so that money is drawn in and reluctant to leave your hands.
- Feed a Drawing Mojo Bag
Apply two to three drops of Magnet oil to your mojo bag’s exterior each week to keep the charm active and drawing. You can also add a drop to lodestone setups, reinforcing the magnetic pull of the mineral with the oil’s drawing intention.
The Tarot Fellow Standard
Espiritu’s limited distribution means I can offer this formula where most general retailers can’t, and that’s a genuine advantage for practitioners looking for consistent, traditionally-named condition oils. Magnet oil is one of those staple formulas that belongs in any working conjure kit, right alongside Van Van and a good money-drawing formula.
