Description
Krampus is a horned, anthropomorphic figure described as “half-goat, half-demon”, who, during the Yule, punishes children who have misbehaved. The origin of the figure is unclear; some folklorists and anthropologists have postulated a pre-Christian origin. His name originates with the German krampen, which means “claw,” and tradition has it that he is the son of the Norse god of the underworld, Hel. During the 12th century, the Catholic Church attempted to banish Krampus celebrations because of his resemblance to the devil.
Anoint to keep the household in line and for when you need to invoke the essence of Krampus.
New // 8 ml dropper bottle
Some people believe that Krampus represents the Horned God, a popular figure in witchcraft, and that his birch rods are a throwback to ancient, pagan initiation rituals. When Christians replaced pagan winter festivals with Christmas, Krampus underwent a transformation. He was associated with the devil, and he was placed in a subservient position to Saint Nicholas—even forced to wear chains to show his inferiority.

This stuff is great! I use it to keep my neighbours’ kids from screaming and crying all day. Krampus will keep them in line! I place some oil on our adjoining walls when the kids are really unruly. It’s something that has to be done regularly (once won’t permanently keep the kids quiet.) But I imagine this can be done by parents also who need their children to behave or calm down if they’re really upset. (We can all use some quiet time!) This can also be used on candles to burn for a longer affect (depending how long the candle burns.) Krampus oil is definitely one you’ll want in your magickal cabinet!
