Controlling Oil: A Hoodoo-Style Domination Formula
Controlling oil occupies a distinct position in the hoodoo condition oil family, sitting between the broad authority of Commanding oil and the direct-obedience focus of Do As I Say. Where Commanding asserts general leadership and Do As I Say targets specific verbal compliance, Controlling oil is about quietly and persistently shaping another person’s actions and decisions in your favor. Controlling oil is a hoodoo-style condition oil, one of the formulas based on traditional conjure recipes. It is used in love situations, workplace disputes, and any context where sustained influence over a specific person is the goal.
Aura Variety’s version is a condition oil on a fragrance oil base, sold in a 4 dram square bottle.
Application Methods and Timing in Conjure Practice
Controlling oil applications include skull candle work, used to influence a specific person’s thinking; placing a petition dressed with oil inside your own shoe to keep influence literally underfoot; and anointing personal items belonging to the target with oil to exert control through sympathetic contact. Tuesday and Thursday are common working days, with waning moon phases often chosen for control work. Explore compatible ritual supplies in my ritual supplies collection.
These are condition oils for ritual use, formulated on a fragrance oil base, not aromatherapy products. The 4 dram working size provides adequate supply for multiple applications across a sustained working.
How to Use Controlling Oil
Three traditional methods used in hoodoo and conjure practice for working with Controlling condition oil.
- Petition in the Shoe Method
Write your controlling command on paper, anoint the four corners and center with Controlling oil, and fold toward you. Place it inside your left shoe, keeping your influence underfoot in constant motion.
- Dress a Skull Candle for Mind Influence
Apply Controlling oil to a skull-shaped candle while focusing on the specific person you wish to influence. Place it on top of a name paper and burn in stages over several evenings, speaking your outcome.
- Anoint a Honey Jar for Sustained Influence
Add several drops of Controlling oil to a honey jar containing the target’s name paper and a piece of calamus root. Seal the jar and burn a dressed candle on its lid regularly for persistent influence.
The Tarot Fellow Standard
I stock Aura Variety’s Controlling oil because it is a hoodoo-style condition oil, one of the formulas based on traditional conjure recipes, and the square-bottle format keeps it practical for sustained multi-week workings. Hoodoo is a living tradition, and I offer this oil as an entry point, not a substitute for learning from practitioners and community.
