Turon Ritual Oil

CAD $22.00

In Polish folklore, Turoń is a festive monstrosity in the form of a black, horned, shaggy goat-like animal complete with a flopping jaw. It makes an appearance at events after Christmas, during Carnival and before Lent begins. The name is derived from the word tur, meaning aurochs.

Turoń’s muzzle is made of thin wood, covered with rabbit skin, and is big so it can swallow an apple whole.. or drink a glass of vodka in one sho! It is believed that the alcohol, consumed by the beast in nearly every visited household, makes its behaviour insolent. Turoń holds two sticks which he uses to smack the floor with his every move, jumping over them and over the stools in the house as well.

He is a symbol of fertility, he pokes householders with his horns to pass it on, a way of wishing through gestures. Appearing with singing carollers, he claps his jaw to the rhythm of the song and rings the bell on his neck. It’s believed all the alcohol consumed by the beast in nearly every household it visits, makes his behaviour insolent. During an important moment in singing Turoń faints. Everyone tries to resuscitate it, using massage, lighting hay as incense, blowing wind under its tail, pouring vodka into its muzzle of effigy, thusly undoing the hex. Turoń recovers and begins to frolic again. This often announces the end of the visit.

Whenever the Turoń becomes unbearable for the householder a song can be sung to banish it:

“Idź, turoniu, do domu
nie zawadzaj nikomu
nie tuś się wychował
nie tu będziesz nocował”

“Go now, Turoń, go home
Don’t you bother any more souls
Here’s not the place you live
This not the place you shall sleep”

Use as a dressing oil on yourself, candles, petition papers, spell papers, charms, amulets, fetishes or anything else you wish.

To attract things to you and for positive work anoint yourself upwards from bottom to top | toe to head. To expel or get rid of something dress in a downwards motion from top to bottom | head to toe.
