Love this magically and as a lip balm! Gave my lips a little lift and added a lot of power to my working. Love having this addition!
I’m loving this lip balm! This one is light and easy to wear, and seems to inspire grounded communication. I also notice it gives me energy to get the things done that I need to get done, often with an extra dose of positive energy. There’s also a cute word smithing component to this one that is really nice for client work. Highly recommend!

I feel so pragmatic and capable tapping into the energy of Cap II body butter. I've felt drawn to apply it to my hands and forearms, like rolling up my sleves ready to get to it. I really feel a boost of endurance during the day and resting once things are done feels so sensible! It lessens the guilt of "I should be doing more" and helps feel the accomplishment of what is done and a desire to rest as preparation for future accomplishment. I really gain a sens of worth and value in my work the validation of completion rather than performance to others.
I’ve been smoking this and am enjoying it so much. I get a warm, kind energy emanating from the mix and smoking it brings relaxation, a sense of ease, and lightheartedness. Much cherished relief for a frazzled nervous system.
WOW!!! The first time I applied this I didn’t notice too much. Subsequent uses have been DELIGHTFULLY INTENSE. This is what I’m usually seeking from a salve. It penetrates the depths within, it is a deeply mystic experience. I recently applied it and fell into a trance for an unknown amount of time - I completely lost any concept of time. I’m kind of prone to that because I have ADHD but it felt different from ADHD time blindness. It was like the world stopped and everything was pure sensation. As our Great Mage noted, it also felt for me like “DID I TAKE SOMETHING????” when I very much had not taken anything. I’m basically sober. I have experience with various substances and I’m at a loss for words on what could be comparable. I’ve never used psychedelics, so I genuinely cannot compare it to them. I feel like maybe it’s not a good idea to name the substances that are coming to mind. Except, maybe, the greatest and healthiest MJ high you’ve ever experienced. Great thing is I experimented with applying this before work once and it didn’t make me feel weird during the day. I think there’s something specific about nighttime application that makes you more susceptible to ~THE EXPERIENCE~.
I HIGHLY!!!!!!! Recommend this specific form of Spica. I can imagine so many incredible uses for it. As soon as I can carve out time, I’m doing the pick your power hypnotic attunement using Spica materia and going HARD on the salve application that’s part of the ritual.
You can never go wrong with a beauty oil from sphere + sundry. I’d place these among the best skincare products in the world. This one has a great scent profile that can lean more towards the jasmine or towards the kind of syrupy/honey kind of scent it has. After application in the morning, at least 10 hours later someone came close to my face and said my skin smelled sweet. It’s not too sweet! It’s like a… natural tree sap instead of that high fructose corn syrup type of thing. This sinks in FAST, possibly the fastest of all the available beauty oils. The only other beauty oil that may sink in as fast is the newly released Spica beauty oil. As for the magickal aspects of this, I kind of think I’m beautiful all the time no matter what so I can’t really say I find it makes me more attractive. This series is good for smoothing relations with others and the beauty oil absolutely delivers on that. I suppose it’s a type of glamour! People will interpret your actions and words in a better light than they normally would. People seem to extend more grace when I have this on.
Only downside I noticed with application is that my facial hair (I’m female) started to grow in faster (as in hirsutism). I was on a round of prednisone when I started using it, so it was probably the hormone disruption from the steroids rather than the product. Just figured I should mention it because when I applied it I asked it to prevent the growth of “inappropriate facial hair” - maybe my request wasn’t specific enough, or my body’s reaction to the prednisone was too strong for the request to land. I’m still going to keep using this, and will try to pay more attention as my body comes completely off the prednisone to see if the thicker, darker growth gets worse when I try this out again and I’ll update with another review here and I’ll post in the client community.
Suddenly things are aligning and great opportunities keep falling in my lap. A road has opened by Spica and it feels delightful. The oil is subtle, but from consistent use in conjunction with other forms from this series, I am blown away by the changes in my life. I am getting incredible opportunities at work. Things in my personal life are better. Unfortunately I did fall physically ill for a bit of time, but generally this has been a period of taking care of myself better than I ever have before. And this isn’t placebo effect because I have no idea why this influence would specifically encourage me to take better care of my physical health. This isn’t Asclepius, this isn’t slightly keyed to Hygeia like CapII - it’s like Spica has come to help me see how I have a bit more agency than I thought I did and even if my efforts don’t go perfectly, even if what I do doesn’t make my chronic health issues disappear, it’s significant and accretive to still make changes.
I wrote in the incense review that Jupiter and Venus materials tend to leave me feeling intoxicated and leads my ideas to be sort of bigger than reality, but Spica feels more grounded. I can see the rainbow-array of possibilities and weigh each one, try them out, etc. Plus, I feel generally more at ease since using the oil and incense. Feels like it could be worked with often like Jupiter in Cancer for a stronger baseline.
I'm so glad for the mini vials of incense, I've been unlocking a realm of S+S materia that was hesitant to invest in before. There's a feeling of "instant magic" in the air when they're burned, even if it doesn't feel as potent as an oil. There's more general creativity in the air, my ideas aren't as stagnant, but they also feel more purposeful. Jupiter and Venus materials can almost give me a intoxicated feeling that can be good for projects but often leads to grandiose ideas that are unreasonably unattainable- Spica feels more grounded.
I have a long history of saying really stupid things. This lip balm takes the edge off of that compulsion and kind of keeps me safe from myself. It's also quite calming and provides a sense of calm, safe stability.
After burning this only twice, an influx of opportunities came forward towards the person being petitioned- I haven't seen materia work this fast before!
There really is a buttery feeling to this, both in the oil and the feelings it invokes. Any troubles on my mind have a more easy-going nature to them, even if it's something I don't like I feel the weight of it much less. General existence becomes easier, especially if you're a heavy thinker and tend to linger on existential thoughts of humanity and the universe.
Tenderness in a bottle! It smells a little like marzipan. Has so far helped me navigate conversations with loved ones that would otherwise ended up rocky and tedious, instead it was smooth conversations and no lingering bad feelings.
Something about this body butter makes me more aware of the goodness in life. It settles my nervous system and allows me to feel more gentle. And it smells so beautiful. It's everything I need during chaotic times.
It took me a little while to form a relationship with this talisman. It really helped when I made an altar for her. Then I began wearing her when I was creating or attending something creative (like a concert). It seemed like we then began to understand each other more. Sometimes, it feels like she wants to be worn when I do mundane things that I - only later - realize are actually creative in nature, or require discernment. For example, for one of my writing contracts, I sort through a LOT of written material and make revisions. Spica is definitely good at "separating the wheat from the chaff," so she is an invaluable companion during those tasks. Now that we know each other better, it's almost like having an energetic friend or support. I know that might sound really weird at first blush, but it truly is the best way to explain it.
I feel like when I wear this, I'm taken more seriously by others (which is noticeable as a woman). It's as though my expertise and talents get recognized. It's a wonderful feeling.
A few hours ago, my computer was being harassed by the software provider it has an abusive relationship with. I applied door-key salve, conjured up ideas to dodge or mitigate the worst effects of a forced update. And...well. It's back. Smoother and faster than before. None of the problems I'd been hearing about.
Shortly after. A couple of electricians showed up. As one unloaded his gear I noticed a box with a company name. ERIS. Who I've been working with on a bigger issue. Her showing up when she did makes sense of this local hack. I told him about the Greek goddess who takes no shit. He liked her story. Part of me saying thank you. He left a couple pieces of exposed copper wire too. Thanks.
There's a Cocteau Twins track with Dewdrop in the title. In the spirit of both their music and Fomalhaut's watery-eyed blurring of distinctions, of dimensions, of possible and unpossible, I'm not going to fact-check. That's for us here in the world of matter, and this scent is a gateway between.
The single-minded aspect of Antares came in very handy recently when even my spirals had spirals. And tincture brought me back, which turned my bungee-jump into the abyss more like one of those bouncers parents dangle babies from. Tootsies were toasty, but as I gently upped and downed my one-track mind steered me to safety.
such a sublime materia. i invested in a larger vial of oil after working with my initial 5ml. badger x antares is a materia i was so lucky to find in my beginning s + s journey. i think badger really shines when you anoint it to significant acupuncture points - when applied to kd1 (bottom of the foot) it really helps the whole channel receive energy. i also really love it on lv2 for clearing stagnation. if acupuncture or acupressure is in your practice/lineage, it can be a wonderful aid for tidying up the channel. i can't impress how strongly it is at moving stagnation and bringing a field of coherence when applying to the body. small applications work great at turning around your day when you feel like it's been lost. 🙂
i find thema mundi salve to be a treasure, and one that wants to be worked with specifically and intentionally. not even in a precious/hoarding manner, in a cool and calm conservation of energy. this can help you if you have a dream that preceeds you and is wider than you -- an ancestral prayer, a collective future vision -- and you need help accessing that to bring it into the material realm. as a channeler and someone who works in visionary states, i don't experience it to be particularly psychedelic or ungrounding. rather, it can show you where you need to look up or look down. it can anchor you on the axis mundi and show you where you need to go deeper within or consider a higher perspective (guides, ancestors, helping spirits, allies).
for me, mundi's presence even without application is helping me to allow myself to expand and challenge every single limitation in my life. it is facilitating me expanding my business globally, moving from my current climate (maybe even internationally) and showing me just how narrow my thinking was (even as a psychic-medium, oracle, seer). but it never feels unanchored, ungrounding. there's a certainty, a knowing, and a deeply rooted possibility in it all. it will challenge you, but for me, it has NOT been a direct response. it's all working in the background, quietly attuning me to my path and letting my path grow WIDE in a way that would normally scare me sh1tless lol.
the scent is a dream, very akin to how i feel about moon in taurus salve. so supportive for mending and tending, facilicating relational repair, and deeply choosing yourself (not as an intellectual pursuit, as a living practice). i find this actually lends itself to ephiphanies and discernments of who actually holds me. it offers a clarifying of what is not for me and a DEEPENING of what is. it almost redirects the depth of heartbreak and disappointment into a deep clarity of where i am resourced. so, it may not be what you expect as a grief remediator, but it gave me exactly what i needed in unexpected ways. i think it helps you see what's underneath what you know to be true intellectualy and moves the energy into more of a somatic, living practice rather than a loose assessment.
pure radiance. so so so deeply supportive for remediating the heavier aspects of my life - the cold, wet climate i live in, seasonal woes, pain flares, etc. - it deeply rewilds my relationship to barriers and helps me find my shine. love it so much.
the energy of this materia feels very subtle to me as a lip balm - as someone who is sensitive is energy and can really feel the spirit of each materia, i was surprised that this didn't go hot n' heavy on the amorous energies of taurus (for me). i think context matters and i feel more inspired to work with it as an oil to see the difference. i feel this materia wants to be worked with in more devotional way and tuning more into the erotic, sensual charge of the materia. moon in taurus is a very dynamic (my total MVP) and i'm surprised overall how subtle venus has been.
grounding rhythm is what this mercury materia brings up for me. i find it to help connect me to my soul song, which is particularly supportive as i work on developing content for my business. i find that it helps me ground my channeling and discern between my intuition vs. my thinking mind. i don't find it to be a deeply stimulating materia (as one might find with gemini) but more so it can help tighten outside noice and distractions. it's a gentle honing and a subtle materia, which can be perfect for a sensitive nervous system. where this virgo materia might be more of the daily rhythm, the gemini might be the larger "blue skies" vision.
Incredible at reclaiming your agency and honoring your heart's desires over what society might ask you to do with your gifts + talents. I feel like it cooly subverts cultural norms. Paired with Regulus, it really lets the crown shine. For those who feel that "heavy is the crown" under your own ambitions and operate with a deep sense of internal pressure. This LIFTS the energy greatly and helps you carry your vision forward (with a deep connection to land, kin, ancestors, and spirits).
INCREDIBLE at clearing brain fog and doing the d*mn thing. It's a foundational materia for me, between the kolonia and oil, this is the special sauce. I find the exaltation of Mars to be a DEEP breath of fresh air in which all things can move with ease. It STOPS overthinking and STARTS doing. It releases perfectionism, overstimulation, and functional freeze. I think it's a necessary materia as a small business owner who WFH and needs support with delineating "rest" & "play". I'm currently living in a climate that is super hard on my body (lack of sun in the PNW) and this really helps me get things done.
There's a deep smokiness to this Kolonia that I adore - it gives me mezcal energy. I find this materia to be so so supportive with clearing and boosting my capacity for self-promotion as a business owner. Everytime I do a cleansing, I can settle in and know that all is well. It deeply reminds you of your own competency and can help squirrely nerves. Third Decan Leo really shines at bringing you forward and moving beyond the edge of your discomfort with shining. An amazing aid for those who are moving into greater states of visibility.
This honey makes me feel softer inside. I put it in my tea, in salad dressings, in random recipes, you name it. It's got a bit of an herbal flavor that tastes like gentle rain in springtime to me. And that's kind of what it feels like - as though everything is going to be okay.
