In a way oil is a sgn of the holy spirit as it keeps thelamp burning.
The symbolism of anointing with oil also signifies the Holy Spirit, to the point of becoming a synonym for the Holy Spirit. In Christian initiation, anointing is the sacramental sign of Confirmation, called "chrismation" in the Churches of the East. Its full force can be grasped only in relation to the primary anointing accomplished by the Holy Spirit, that of Jesus. Christ (in Hebrew "messiah") means the one "anointed" by God's Spirit. There were several anointed ones of the Lord in the Old Covenant, pre-eminently King David. But Jesus is God's Anointed in a unique way: the humanity the Son assumed was entirely anointed by the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit established him as "Christ." The Virgin Mary conceived Christ by the Holy Spirit who, through the angel, proclaimed him the Christ at his birth, and prompted Simeon to come to the temple to see the Christ of the Lord.~The Oil of Catechumens ("Oleum Catechumenorum" or "Oleum Sanctum") used in Baptism along with water, in the consecration of churches, in the blessing of Altars, in the ordination of priests, and, sometimes, in the crowning of Catholic kings and queens.The Holy Chrism ("Sanctum Chrisma") or "Oil of Gladness," which is olive oil mixed with a small amount of balm or balsam. It is used in Confirmation, Baptism, in the consecration of a Bishop, the consecration of a various things such as churches, chalices, patens, and bells.The Oil of the Sick ("Oleum Infirmorum"), which is used in the Anointing of the Sick
No way, Jesus and the Holy Spirit are just different forms of the same God. Trinity= Father+Son(Jesus)+ Holy Spirit. Jesus was not possessed by anyone or anything.
Two common representations of the Holy Spirit are tongues of fire, in honor of the way the Holy Spirit appeared when it came upon the Apostles on Pentecost, and a dove, in honor of the doves that descended on Jesus when he was baptized. Also it is represented in the form of wind.

Confirmatin candidates were anointed at Baptism with Oil ( sacred Chrism) and now are "confirmed" with the same oil as the Holy Spirit comes to the candidate in the same way as at Baptism. The oil is a sign of anointing as a king - a king like Jesus who came to serve others and not to be served. Confirmation is call to service to God and one another.
Actually The Holy Spirit was the gift.

the holy spirit comes to people through confirmationHoly Spirit has nothing to do with "Confirmation".The Holy spirit is the third Person of Godhead.In Old-Testament times Holy spirit was working in life of specific person at a specific time for a definite purpose. Even the dictation of Word of God by inspiration was done by the Holy Spirit. Then after the day of Pentecost the Promise of outpouring was fulfilled. Acts 2:1-4.The work of conviction in the life of an unsaved person is done by the Holy Spirit. (John16:8-9).So for today the baptism (Immersion ) in Holy spirit is a separate experience in life of a convicted- transformed person.
Once the holy spirit comes into a person, he changes his way andi t is there for all to se the complete change. But we must remember that some have less and some have more of the spirit, depending in their faith.
