I use it in Sweat Lodge Ceremonies and also in craft work to boost the power of spells and for protection . Black Boy Resin can be used in the same way . { Reference : Wikepedia -In African-American folk magic or hoodoo, it is used in mojo hands for money-drawing or love-drawing, and is used as incense to cleanse a space of negative entities or influences. It is also added to red ink to make "Dragon's Blood Ink", which is used to inscribe magical seals and talismans. In folk medicine , dragon's blood is used externally as a wash to promote healing ofwounds and to stop bleeding. It is used internally for chest pains,postpartum bleeding , internal traumas and menstrual irregularities. In neopagan witchcraft , it is used to increase the potency of spells for protection, love, banishing and sexuality. In New Age shamanism it is used in ceremonies in a similar way as the neopagans use it. }
