Samhain Altar Oil

Samhain Altar Oil

Honour your ancestors and embrace the thinning veil with our Samhain Altar Oil, a rich and powerful blend created for the witch’s new year. Samhain (pronounced ‘sow-in’) marks the end of the harvest and the beginning of the dark half of the year. It’s a time for reflection, ancestral connection, protection, and releasing what no longer serves.

This handcrafted oil carries the earthy, spiced energy of autumn, making it perfect for deep rituals and shadow work. Whether you’re building an ancestor altar, casting a protective spell, or meditating on personal transformation, this oil grounds and supports you through the liminal season.

Each 30ml bottle includes a Pumpkin charm—a symbol of harvest, protection, and the magic of transformation. The charm can be kept on your altar, used in charm bags, or worn during your Samhain rituals for added focus and connection.
