Incense Correspondence Table

Written and Compiled by George Knowles

Incense has long had associations with magick and witchcraft, as indeed it is used commonly by many other religions.  The use of Incense in witchcraft  is threefold: 

(1)  It conditions the mind by stimulating our senses of smell.

(2)  In connection with spells, it draws down the spirits through it's magickal association with the elements of Air.

(3)  According to ancient beliefs, when a spell is done.  It raises the spell up into the ether and sends it on it's way.

In magick, the type of incense used needs to correspond with the nature of the spell being worked.  Most spells require an incense associated with a particular planet or deity.  Many are used for their purification and cleansing properties during ritual. 

Below is a list of commonly used incenses and their corresponding associations.  For other associations and correspondences see:
