Magickal Ink - In Velt Ouis Velt

I've chosen to use natural vegetable parchment paper, quill pen and magickal ink to write the petition spell portion of the upcoming reversal ritual.

recipe:

small vial of black ink
1 pinch name incense, undissolved
1 drop name incense infusion, steeped and dissolved in alcohol*
1 drop dragon's breath oil
1 drop sandalwood oil

While most ink recipes call for the resins to be steeped and dissolved in alcohol, I'm choosing to also add a small undissolved chunk into the ink as well. The dissolved portion will blend into the ink, while the undissolved portion will form a "foundation" within the ink. It will also be symbolic of being both in (immanent) and out (transcendent) of the world simultaneously - in velt ouis velt.

*70% isopropyl rubbing alcohol used in actual preparation of infusion.
