Flying Salve

Flying salves and ointments have been a celebrated part of early modern witchcraft and sorcery traditions. Usually crafted with plant materials that are entheogenic and occasionally mildly toxic, they help loosen the spirit and aid one in journeying by spirit to the realms of otherness. Flying salves conjure up visions of old European witches striding their brooms (or goats or rue stalks or beams of moonlight) as visionary tools to leave this world and enter the other.

Josh has formulated a modern take on the traditional Flying Salve that calls on allies that open up our visionary faculties without the dangers and inevitable side effects. This soft balm features Hops flowers, a close relative of Cannabis, California Poppy flowers, Mugwort, Lavender, Rosemary, and Nutmeg all infused over three months in a light Sunflower oil which is stirred by moonlight into fragrant beeswax.

Flying Salve can be applied to the pulse points on the wrist, ankles, back of the neck, and throat to wrap us up in the mystical powers of the plant spirits before meditation, journey, ritual, divination, or flights of spirit.

We've opten to leave all fragrance and essential oils out of this formulation so that you can experience these celebrated herbs in their own way.
