Short Norse Pagan Ritual Oil Blessing Ritual

Here is a short Norse Pagan ritual to bless ritual oil

Begin by finding a quiet, private space where you can perform the ritual undisturbed. Light some candles or incense to create a sacred atmosphere.

Trace the Sign of the Hammer over the bottle or bowl of oil and say:

“Thor hallow this oil”

Hold the bottle or bowl of oil in your hands and recite the poem below, focusing on the words and their meaning as you speak them.:

“Hail to the gods of the north,

Proud and strong, fierce and true.

Hail to Odin, All-Father,

Giver of wisdom, keeper of the runes.

Hail to Thor, mighty thunderer,

Protector of the Aesir, defender of the realm.

Hail to Freya, goddess of love and fertility,

Bringer of joy and abundance to the land.

We offer this oil, a sacred substance,

To honor and invoke the power of the divine.

May it bless and protect us,

As we honor the old ways and the ancient gods.

May it bring us strength and courage,

As we journey through this life and into the next.

Hail to the gods of the north,

Proud and strong, fierce and true.

May they guide and watch over us,

In this life and beyond.

So be it.”

As you recite the poem, visualize the gods of the north listening to your words and accepting your offering of oil. Imagine their presence filling the space around you.

When you have finished reciting the poem, hold the bottle or bowl of oil in front of you and say: 

“I bless this oil in the name of the gods of the north. May it bring strength, courage, and protection to all who use it.”

After speaking these words, hold the bottle or bowl of oil over the flame of a candle or incense burner and allow it to be infused with the smoke. This will help to purify and consecrate the oil.

When the ritual is complete, you may use the blessed oil in your own personal rituals or to anoint objects or people as a sign of protection and blessings. May the blessings of the gods be upon you.
