This is my fave Venus materia to work with . I find that it’s the easiest to apply for regular use without issues! I love wearing it to work or any time I need to socialize and connect to others. I love the soothing, grounding nature of it.
I’ve noticed that this oil presents me with opportunities to create new connections, opportunities to deepen existing friendships and experiences where I’ve had to discern whether I actually want to move forward with a connection. I also had a few beautiful moments with a co-worker recently where we had lovely conversation which led to her inviting me to a bbq at her house.
I started working with Herkeios after having weird stuff going around my house. I applied it to my front door and around the front door way and it immediately felt a deep sense of safety!
I love to work with this regularly. It makes me feel a sense of joy and gratitude about life. I also love how it makes me want to create a well-rounded life, often shifting my focus to different activities - working on them a little at a time. This also really just helps me feel more me and to have more fun and feel ease in receiving attention.
I love the uplifting hopefulness I feel when wearing this oil. It leaves me feeling warm, optimistic and supported.
This materia is amazing for getting me in the zone and helping me get shit done. I love it for getting through my to do list or working on annoying tasks I’d rather avoid. I love the cool flow I feel when working with this materia. The only drawback is the jaw tension experienced after which we are warned about.
I worked with Spica closely to help me create my first drag performance and I am really happy with the routine I came up with. It helped me own my own thing. I also stumbled my way into a folk harp class upon its arrival. I’m finding that Spica is encouraging new artistic pursuits which at this point include: ukelele and a couple of forms of dance. I also love the generosity of heart and spirit it promotes and greater ease socializing and being of service.
I find that this materia makes me generous of heart and spirit. It makes me optimistic about financial ventures and I’ve also received sweet gifts when working with this. Additionally, I received a large financial boon right before this materia arrived.
Such a delight, the fragrance is so uplifting and so is the vibe, one of my favorite materia of the many that I have purchased over the years.
So lovely, just smells amazing and really feels like it grounds and centers me. Love it before ritual and just whenever I feel like I need a bit of gentle settling.
I shared this with my partner the other day and described it as the “get shit done” lip balm. And that pretty much says it all. Applying it rapidly brings on a quiet, productive calm that is NOT my usual state of being as a Gemini moon. I’m a writer, and I’ve found this better for just sitting down and putting words on (virtual) paper better than anything else I’ve tried for creativity. I probably need to use it way more than I do.
Just functionally, as a body butter, this stuff is amazing. AMAZING. So creamy! Pillowy! Fluffy! The smell: I love the smell! It smells like the inside of a fragrant wood chest. It smells like the best tree. My skin could drink this forever.
And OH does it feel like floating in the water. This body butter holds you and transports you. Simultaneously watery and heavenly, shattering the firmament separating them while somehow being meditative and peaceful. This is a Jupiter that's a lovely bedtime, meditation, or ritual companion, and almost addictive in its soothing and transcendent properties. I feel like I'm going to have to both ration it out AND buy more.
A fierce fierce addition to my day. I use in on days I'm struggling to fully be in my power, to unmask, to unfawn, and it fully supports this. Like a little shot of lionly courage. I don't find it at all overpowering, but like most solar materia, I definitely only use it during the day. I usually dab some on my inner elbows and my heart and it lasts all day.
I have the lip balm and oil from this series and have been working with Venus to help me understand how to be a better friend, and how to recognise a real friend - how to know who to trust. I'm getting a lot of insight through that (and must say - I have been missing some very basic and elementary things!) and some shifts in my understanding, already after working with it for just a few weeks.
I'm also finding, as a side effect that every time I wear it, strangers are are friendly and smiley, I'm more at ease within myself, and there is just more of a sense of mutual trust and kinship between me and everyone I come into contact with.
I've also had some very fun nights out with it - lots of laughter and fun.
A VERY enjoyable sub-series and a blessing to have. Thank you S&S!
I’ve grown to love the lip balms, even more than the candles that had been my go-tos! I now rely primarily on the waters (affordable) and save my money for the lip balms. I used exalted Jupiter in Cancer almost exclusively while Jupiter has been in Cancer. I was also a regular user of exalted Venus water and kolonia. It’s a wonderful, friendly, welcoming series that anyone can try. The scent is great! Having the lip balm increases the opportunities to use it. I brought it on vacation to encourage ease and enjoyment. I also tend to time use to Venus’s day (Friday).
Lovely iteration of the Spica series. This is my favorite body butter yet. The scent is light, clean, faintly floral in a way that makes me feel elevated as soon as I open it. Spica came at the perfect time to help me navigate some big changes relating to education and career. This is an excellent study support, it helps me ground while also keeping the mind keen and ready to absorb new knowledge. I also feel so sophisticated when I use this, but in an easy to access way. Like an effortlessly cool academic with clean style that makes you want to level up.
I'm writing this review from a beautiful apartment in Sweden and realizing the person hosting me has so many Spica traits! As does the city I'm residing in: it's tidy, efficient, well kept, comfortable and filled with sweet wildflowers at every turn.
Has been a great gift in rooting in and building a scaffolding into the future.
I use this oil primarily for my Black Book workings (credit: Aidan Wachter & "Weaving Fate"). I anoint myself before I write, i anoint the candles I use when i write, the pen, and the book itself and then i seal each entry with my magical name and a smear of this oil. I've only been at it for about six months but already i can see the internal and external changes working themselves into reality. i've found this to be a slow and deep materia, but that might be because of the way i'm using it. YMMV.
Ordered a sample dab, it is a WONDERFUL, uplifting scent that is almost nostalgic for me. I am recovering from two back-to-back surgery with complication, and at times I feel really down. This scent reminds me the genius that is already inside my cells, which are working 24/7 toward the best case scenario of recovery, turning all pressures into diamond.
Holding off 1 star because I don't know if this magical property pans out as I am in the beginning of my recovery journey.. (I do purchase other Spica materia as well).
With that said, I'm not used to solid perfumes (I only applied on pulse points). I don't mind the silage/staying power is low, but how to apply to maximize the throw of the fragrance?
have only applied a few times! love the color of the base and subset oils. scent is citrusy and refreshing for me. think it's helping with house hunting as in preventing us from moving forward with something that would be a drain on our finances or spirit. thought we really wanted something but the potential landlord wound up being sketchy. want to do more active application to see what happens!
I apply this oil every night. And will probably get another when I’ve finished this one. It smells divine, I want to slather it all over. Considering getting the body butter.
I’m all of a sudden so thirsty, I feel like it’s balancing my waters & helping me ride the waves of my emotions in a deeper, almost cosmic, way.
I get the best, most restorative sleep. Paired with Healing the Heart, it’s like being held safely. Add Fomy salve to the mix & I’m comatose 🤤
I get all Chandler Bing when it’s time to pose for a photo, so I washed my face with the Kolonia as prep for my driver’s license photo.
I took my photo & went to sit for my # to be called. The attendant came out of the booth to call me back to retake it.
Me: What’s the matter, it came out ugly?
Her: Take another, it will be more beautiful.
We redo it, she even asks me if I like it or we can do another. They usually dgaf.
When I get to the 2nd attendant she even remarks that I took a good photo 😊☺️
Other notes: I love how this smells!!! I’m not usually a lavender girlie but in this, it doesn’t smell like air freshener. I also use this to cleanse my hands before making rose-ary beads.
My husband had to testify in court, he put some in his pocket & indeed, best care scenario was the outcome.
My partner who is a resident Venus-Jupiter in Taurus smelled the light orange-blossomy scent after giving me a kiss and they came back for more and asked me what I was wearing if that says anything. Really hit the target audience and delivers a soft and dreamy sensuality upon application.
Had lots of fun in consultations with this one! It creates as ease and levity in situations that otherwise feel anxiety inducing. If you need a good laugh from a clever quip, she’s your gal.
I put little behind the ear before a work presentation and I was able to work that room and even left everyone laughing. My boss said “it’s going to be hard to follow that up” and I really felt comfortable taking up space and way more confident than usual!
I looked over this series for far too long. I thought it would be too much for me, too aggressive maybe? But holy wow, no. I had a beautiful day, that possibly shouldn't have been. I stayed up way too late one night (which I never do) so the next morning, I put about 2 drops under my tongue on Mars' day in Sol's hour. I worked a full day, ran errands, worked out hard at the gym, and was pleasant to everyone in my sphere (including my partner and toddler) the entire day **without caffeine**
I used this soap before working with any other Spica materia. I highly reccomend! I had such a good experience attuning to Spica and achieving the goals I set out with when starting with this beautiful soap
So I have Chitra Nakshatra tied to my 10th house and I use Spica for mental architecture type freelance work. Working with Spica has helped me move forward in my freelance project ten times faster than I ever expected to be. I already have my website, clients and lots of positive reception after less than a month of this being built.
I'm an Aquarius sun and Saturn rules my 2nd house. I purchased this oil to help support me with heathy money habits. The smell is really deep, woody and earthy, it kind of smells masculine and musky.
I've found the oil to be good at grounding me but I found myself feeling a little melancholy after extended use, so use it now and again, possibly not for regular application.
This scent is SO me! It's such an earthy delicious scent. I was a little sad that the scent faded so quickly (hence my only 4 star S&S review) . I only wear essential oils and do prefer gentle scents for reference. This is great for someone who might be sensitive to scent. Usually something like the BPAL scents need to be diluted tenfold for me to use a small amount, but this scent is in a very different arena of scent profile. Spica is such a beautiful energy, so it's fun to have it in perfume form.
