[H1732]How To Use Oil

by Kestra Imani, Kes

An oil diffuser is another way of adding some nice scents to your room, ritual area, or wherever you might be. Ritual incense comes in many different scents and types, but they by no means cover the gamut of scents that you might want to fill your nostrils with. Oil diffusers or Oil Burners are simply another way of providing scent.

Scent is one of the senses that we tend to ignore. However, it has a very strong (pardon the pun) impact on our daily lives, our memories, and even our bodies. More Americans are coming to the conclusion that scents may effect the way their minds and bodies work, which is apparent in the great increase in healing modalities like aromatherapy.

In aromatherapy, one can purchase elaborate and expensive oil diffusers or oil burners to dispense their essential oils or fragrance oils. However, a nice inexpensive one does pretty much the same job.

Once you decide which type of oil burner you would like to use, all you need to do is choose what oil you'd like diffused. You can read about some of the differences between magickal essential oils and fragrance oils in other articles. Many vendors offer a plethora of different types of magickal essential oils to choose from. Do I get 10 points for the use of "plethora" in a sentence? :-)

So now what do you do? You have this oil diffuser, you have your magickal essential oils, what else do you need? A heat source of course. A small chime candle or a tea light (depending on which burner you choose) will do nicely. Light that puppy up, and make sure that the flame is not too close to the bowl of the burner, so that it doesn't crack. Let it get a bit warm (use time, not touch to figure out whether it's warm...these things CAN burn), then when you are ready, it's time to add the oil.

Here is the point where you have to know what kind of oil you are using. If you are using an essential oil, use ONLY one or two drops to start. This oil is very concentrated. A tiny bit goes a long way. If you are using a fragrance oil, you can use a little bit more than that. See whether or not it is enough to make the nostrils happy. Give it time, since it takes at least a few minutes to diffuse through the room. Keep adding oil, and you will soon find yourself opening all the windows or fleeing the room. If you're in an apartment, your neighbors may no longer greet you in the hallway. Be patient, and err on the side of little rather than LOTS.

As with all things, be prudent in your selection. Tea Tree essential oil is wonderful to use as an antiseptic, but it really doesn't smell all that great. Something like Lavender or Chamomile or another floral scent is likely a better choice. Of course, you can always use the magnificent blend called Enchanted Oil (sold by Enchanted Works) which contains Reiki energies as well as those sacred to Hecate.

Many scents of magickal essential oils and even fragrance oils correspond to types of incense that might be specific to a certain ritual. This does not mean that you will like every scent that is recommended for every ritual, so start off small so you don't choke :-).

Oil spill equipment is actually a spill kit that has the necessary things you needed in cleaning up a mess. Oil spill equipment tends to have sorbents that generally relies on the chemical or liquid to be absorbed. To actually use it will be easy to say but handling the situation when it goes wrong can be messy. So it's important to know how to use sorbents and to make sure that the oil spill equipment that you brought won't go to waste.

To simplify, using the oil spill equipment or more accurate, the sorbents in the kit, you must know the liquid to be absorbed. If the liquid may contain hydrocarbons like oil, jet fuel, gasoline, motor oil, etc, you must use the absorbent that tends to suck only hydrocarbons, especially if the said liquid is on the water itself. There are different kinds of kits for every liquid and classified into three: universal or general purpose kits, oil only kits and the hazmat kits. Universal or general purpose spill kits tend to absorb both liquid whether it is oil or water. Oil only spill kits are the ones that can be used in water and absorb the oil that lay waste above it, while repelling water itself. Hazmat spill kits are the ones that can be used in water based liquids and even strong ones like acid and solvents.

The oil spill equipment also has the necessary things that you might need for protection like gloves, goggles, disposable bag and the likes. Protection is necessary when cleaning something that may harm you or your health. Drum spill kits are the containers that you use to contain the chemicals or spill that you cleaned. These containers can come in different forms, the large type and the movable type. Large ones are used when there is a massive spill whether it will on a ship or the chemical plants, these containers are essential. To use them is a bit risky and you need to get all the necessary gear of protection before containing a chemical or anything into these containers. The movable ones are used mainly by the janitors that clean the offices or by the service crew that cleans up the floor as people tend to walk on it with wet or muddy shoes. Then there is also a battery acid spill kit and a mercury spill kit that can be very handy when everything gets all leaky. To use the battery acid spill kits, it must be placed where the battery is near and in case it leaks, follow the guidelines that usually are at the back of the product itself. For mercury spill kits, which is very essential to lab and other industrial facilities, should be used under the dealer's guidance and be very, very careful if handling it by your own.

The oil spill equipment may sound quite easy but to take all the technicalities can be a headache, but for the assurance of the safety of the people buying it is some of the company's concern and to diligently following those directions can be a well enough guideline to use such equipment.
