This article is part of my Magical Oils Series. If you’re new to making magical oils, I recommend starting with my Complete Guide to Magical Oils, where you’ll learn how to choose herbs, prepare carrier oils, safely infuse your blends, and charge them before creating the recipes below.

Money spells have always fascinated people, probably because we’d all like life to be a little easier now and then. If only a tiny bottle of herbs and oil could magically pay the bills overnight. Unfortunately, that’s not quite how witchcraft works.

For me, prosperity magic has never been about expecting money to appear out of thin air. It’s about creating opportunities, encouraging confidence, staying open to new possibilities, and shifting my mindset towards abundance rather than lack. Sometimes that abundance arrives as financial opportunities; other times it shows up as unexpected help, creative inspiration, new friendships, or simply feeling grateful for what I already have.

That’s one of the reasons I love working with prosperity oils. Every time I make one, it becomes a quiet reminder of the goals I’m working towards. Whether I’m dressing a candle before a prosperity ritual, blessing my planner before setting new goals, or simply keeping a small bottle on my altar, it helps me stay focused on the life I’m trying to build.

Magic doesn’t replace action. It supports it. No amount of cinnamon is going to write your CV, apply for that promotion, start your business, or organise your finances.
You still have to do the work. The magic simply walks beside you while you do it.

In this guide, you’ll find six of my favourite magical oil recipes for prosperity and success. Each one has its own purpose, from attracting abundance and opening new opportunities to encouraging confidence, motivation, and personal growth.

As always, these recipes are here to inspire you, not limit you. Feel free to adjust herbs, swap ingredients that feel more meaningful to your own practice, and allow your intuition to become part of the recipe.

After all, the most powerful magical oil you’ll ever make is the one that feels like it truly belongs to you.

1. Money Drawing Oil

Money magic is one of the oldest forms of practical folk magic, and for good reason. Most of us aren’t looking to become overnight millionaires. We simply want enough stability to pay our bills, feel secure, and worry a little less.

That’s exactly what this blend is designed to support.

Final Thoughts

One of my favourite things about making magical oils is that every bottle tells a story. The herbs you choose, the intention you set, the quiet moments spent preparing each blend… they all become part of the finished oil. Over time, you’ll probably discover favourite ingredients, create your own combinations, and develop little rituals that make your practice uniquely yours.

Don’t be afraid to experiment. Swap herbs if something feels more meaningful to you, adjust recipes as your knowledge grows, and trust your intuition alongside traditional correspondences. Some of the best magical creations begin with curiosity and a willingness to learn.

Most importantly, remember that magical oils are meant to support your journey, not replace action. Keep working towards your goals, stay open to opportunities, and allow your magic to walk beside you every step of the way.

I hope these recipes inspire you to create something beautiful, meaningful, and completely your own.

Happy crafting, and may your path always be filled with abundance, opportunity, and a little everyday magic. 🌿✨
