Immunity Guard Potion | Germs & Sickness Aromatherapy Blend 2
Safety first
Familiarize yourself with aromatherapy and do a skin patch test before using any essential oil. Learn what you need to know with The Ultimate Aromatherapy for Beginners Guide here
As always, consult a trusted healthcare practitioner before trying any essential oils.
See below for contraindications and age requirements before trying this blend.
Remember, children are given lower amounts - see dilution chart mentioned below and always mind age requirements of all oils.
Most oils/blends have a three week time limit of use. Because of this, I recommend having a waxing moon blend and a waning moon blend for every need. That’s why there are two blends for many of the same things.
Most oils/blends are best at a 2% dilution, but some oils are better at much less like peppermint, pepper, and cardamom. (Half of the adult dilution or less for children, see dilution info below).
Oils/Blends are typically meant to be used up to 3 times a day unless otherwise stated.
If an oil occurs throughout multiple blends you are currently using, this needs to be taken into account in terms of dosing frequency and length of time.
See all specific info for every oil of every recipe before using.
Never take essential oils internally.
When using diluted, prepared, aromatherapy blends, a few drops on the wrist or forearm is typically ideal. Use lower dilutions in perfumes and body lotions and any other product intended to be used in a high amount such as a lotion or perfume or room spray.
The Blend
Note: I do consider the Patchouli Peppermint combo in Germs & Sickness Blend 1 to be the stronger of the two, but both are highly effective. Use that one that smells the best to you.
1 drop of Sandalwood (S. Album)
1 drop of Ylang Ylang (C. odorata)
Recommended Dosage & Length of Usage
Can use up to 3 times daily for three weeks, then cease for three weeks. If using continually, I recommend having a blend for waxing moon phases and a blend for waning moon phases to avoid toxicity.
Why It Works (Actions):
Sandalwood - Antibacterial, antifungal, antimicrobial, antiseptic, antiviral, disinfectant, expectorant, protective, immune system stimulant
Ylang Ylang - Absorption enhancer, antibacterial, antifungal, antimicrobial, antiseptic, antiviral, bactericidal, disinfectant, expectorant, germicidal
Methods of use:
All methods of use as mentioned in the base recipes guide
Cautions & Contraindications
A note about toxicity: toxic constituent refers to the constituent that can become a toxin in your body if used longer than the recommended time or used more than the recommended dosage.
Sandalwood - The potentially toxic constituent is the terpene alcohol borneol. Sandalwood oil may, in rare cases, cause dermatitis and allergic reactions. It is contraindicated for diseases of the kidney.
Ylang Ylang- Undiluted use on highly sensitive skin is contraindicated due to the phenol isoeugenol. It is contraindicated during pregnancy and while breastfeeding. For topical use, dilute it to at least 0.8% in a finished product. It is best avoided for use on highly sensitive skin as it may cause sensitization. Always use a skin patch test if in doubt. In Japan, it is considered a high-risk sensitizer and potentially a cause of pigmented contact dermatitis. A 2014 Indian study also states it is a common skin sensitizer and has identified the main sensitizer as a constituent knows as dihydro-di-isoeugenol. However, Tisserand quotes a 2008 study that shows the culprit is the isoeugenol when ylang ylang was tested on guinea pigs. Nevertheless, as stated above, avoid it in any instances of highly sensitive skin, conduct a skin patch test, and always dilute properly.

Herbal Architecture (energetic layer – optional)
This blend is immune steadiness through authority and containment — supporting the system’s ability to resist, contain, and resolve energetic pathogenic pressure without depletion or panic. Essential oils initiate clarity and direction; the herbs selected focus on deep sealing, boundary reinforcement, nervous-system support, and sustainable stamina.
Primary magical priorities:
• Energetic containment of disruptive influences
• Immune authority and clarity
• Nervous-system steadiness
• Restoration of internal balance
• Clean resolution without burnout
Designed to work with waxing moon (strengthening defenses) and waning moon (release what has weakened the system).

Crystal Field Architecture — Permanent Oil Submersion (optional)
Intent of the Blend
Energetic support for immune resilience, clear boundaries against pathogenic charge, calming systemic response, and balanced discharge of excess internal disturbance without panic or overstimulation. This blend’s crystals reinforce protection that is steady and coherent, nervous-system calm, and energetic clarity rather than shock, fight-or-flight tension, or damp suppression.
The oils on the page — typically Tea Tree and Eucalyptus or similar germ-resistance blends — support antiseptic, antiviral, and immune-supportive action on an energetic level. (From the source blend content.)
Six Crystal Choices for This Blend
1. Amethyst
Amethyst offers energetic regulation and mental clarity, helping the nervous system remain calm and perceptually grounded when the field faces pathogenic disturbance. It filters noise and fear loops so the system doesn’t overreact.
2. Smoky Quartz
Smoky Quartz provides grounded discharge of excess charge, pulling residual disturbance down and out of the system, helping energetic charge dissipate without chaotic noise or tension.
3. Clear Quartz
Clear Quartz amplifies and stabilizes the blend’s resistant intention, holding a coherent field pattern that supports clear boundaries and heightened discernment without confusion.
4. Grey Agate
Grey Agate brings nervous-system neutrality, helping the field stay composed rather than reactive when immune-focused energy is engaged.
5. Green Agate
Green Agate reinforces balanced energetic circulation and continuity, supporting restorative flow throughout the system rather than disruption or oscillation.
6. Ocean Jasper
Ocean Jasper supports emotional circulation and parasympathetic ease, helping emotional tension tied to sickness or threat responses move gently rather than harden into reactive anxiety.
