Okay, this just arrived today 05.08.2025 minutes after Pope Leo was elected as the new Pope and I just have to scream that this is the FLUFFIEST body butter that has ever been delivered to me. I want to EAT IT UP but obviously I won't. But the SYNCS with everything Golden Titan seems to be too much to ignore and too BRIGHT of an announcement or call to BE GRAND AND SPECTACULAR.

This is an excellent and truly potent dit da jow. I've trained Chinese Martial Arts for about 27 years, and this is the best dit da jow I've come across. Thanks!

I have been told by a Vedic astrologer that my mercury is malefic so I was weary of Mercury materia but this one was too good and I couldn’t resist getting it. I started doing Mercury Devotion when I got the oil, soap and the incense and I was blown away by how fast my connection to Mercury was built! I also had a dream about a door and key the night this arrived at the post office (before I picked it up the next day.) It also brought the trickster Mercury energy which I wasn’t used to but learned quickly to roll with it.
I’m shaking my head at myself for not realizing that I needed Mercury in my life as someone who owns her business. Mercury started opening doors for me, business wise and spiritual wise. I wanted to wait a few months to write a full in depth review but yesterday I got my first potential client who found me organically through online search which is a first for me! I knew I had to write a review when that happened. I love this materia and its smell. It’s 100% worth every penny.

As someone who has trouble focusing with great anxiety, it helps me laser focus with a strong confidence and reassurance.

Helps me turn down my overactive lower chakras everytime. Several minutes after applying, I'm already dozing off.

Whenever I use this oil, new money opportunities come my way. Added with a little sunny outlook in life! Awesome!

So. I have been what one might call a “problem sleeper” for pretty much my whole life. I’m known for thrashing, kicking, flailing, smacking, carrying on long conversations that sometimes turn into yelling, sitting up suddenly and staying that way for hours— all while still asleep. Oh, plus my chronic nightmares.
Over the years, I’ve tried a variety of different remedies. I had a sleep study done, but that night my sleep wasn’t nearly as active as normal (of course!), so that was a failure. I briefly used a CPAP machine in an attempt to ameliorate my mild sleep apnea, but that *definitely* didn’t turn out well either. The various medications I tried never ended up working out: they were too intense for me (even in small doses), or they would interact poorly with my other prescriptions, or the side effects were just too fucked up & gnarly.
Due to my fibromyalgia and Crohn’s disease combined with my mental health & sleep issues, I can confidently say that never once in my life have I woken up feeling refreshed and well-rested instead of feeling like utter shit. I know it sounds like an exaggeration, but I really mean it.
So I’m sure one can easily imagine the kind of trouble my sleep problems have caused me in serious romantic relationships. I lived alone for a long time so it wasn’t as much of an issue then— I do know that I freaked out my neighbors on multiple occasions, though!
…And then my partner moved in with me a few months ago. He is an incredibly light sleeper (and tends to be a bit anxious in general), so sharing a bed has been a damn nightmare (literally and figuratively).
Enter: Exalted Luna.
The first night, I steeped and drank half a mug before bed…and I slept like a rock. A calm, still, nonverbal rock. I couldn’t remember my dreams the next morning but I’m fairly sure I didn’t have nightmares, either. My partner got the first night of sound sleep he’d had in a couple months, and was overcome with gratitude upon waking.
The following night, I realized I still had half a mug of EL tea next to the bed and drank it. Since it had been steeping for 24 hours, it tasted absolutely delicious but oh boy did it end up being too strong! Consequently, I had intensely vivid, detailed dreams, and apparently I thrashed around/talked a little, but to be fair, not nearly as much as I would on a typical night. The following evening, I went back to drinking a mug of freshly steeped tea (lol) and once again, I slept peacefully and quietly.
(Well, quietly might not be entirely accurate, as I was told I still snore— but certainly no more screeching and no serious movement other than slight shifts.)
Since then, I’ve been drinking a cup of it most nights— for me, 15 minutes seems to be a good length of time, using water that’s not quite boiling.
In addition, I’ve turned tea time into a nightly ritual, which means I’m successfully maintaining a regular magical practice (something I’ve often struggled with), and the benefits are paying off in that realm as well (syncs & opening roads abound!).
Last but definitely not least, when I woke up the other day, I actually felt…okay.
My body didn’t feel like an ancient crumbling statue, my joints ached much less than normal, and holy shit— I wasn’t even grumpy (something I never thought would be possible)! Considering the clusterfuck of health bullshit I deal with, I really don’t expect to wake up feeling refreshed, renewed, and rarin’ to go—perhaps in time, but for now I am more than happy with waking up feeling okay.
A thousand thanks to the S&S team from this newly-transformed sleeper and her (finally!) soundly sleeping boyfriend.

My friend left an emotionally abusive marriage after two decades. Although she's safe in a new home, she began to have trouble sleeping, and felt like her ex was trying to re-establish energetic ties with her in her dreams (he is not a "practitioner" per se, but he has some juice to throw around). Among other solutions, I gave her Deneb Algedi water to spray on her pillow and sheets. With regular use, she reports a sharp decrease in nightmares and night terrors. She feels like he's being "averted" (her word) from her sleeping self, and unable to connect. It's helping so much that I just bought her a second bottle.

When I first purchased, I used this salve for more classical mercurial ends — helping me with writing, school, focus, and the like. I then it put away in my materia boxes for a while and forgot about it, and in that time had had a personal shift towards healing old injuries in my muscles and joints, relying heavily on Asclepius materia. After a certain point of daily applications, I began feeling like I 'maxed-out' the efficacy that Asclepius could give me. I rediscovered EM salve and wondered if it might help re-energize the healing of these old stubborn injuries. Much to my delight, I've found it to do exactly that! When applied to these injuries I feel a burst of new life, space, and healing energy present, as if its waking up blood flow and movement to these areas of my body that have forgotten how to heal. While Asclepius salve alone feels very soothing and medicinal, when layered with EM Salve i can feel it increase the penetrating ability of the Asclepius materica, almost as if EM is waking up all these nerve endings so that Asclepius can use them to bring healing into these forgotten places. Healthy Movement is being reawakened, thanks to the blessings of Exalted Mercury! P.S. I haven't felt inspired to write a review in a while, but as a side effect EM couldn't help but inspire me to share these findings with you all...

Earlier in the day I'd caught a bit of a podcast about a Marvel comic. And I'm working on a story of my own, and figured Froggy could help. He surely did, sounding initially like a Cockney and being a bit here-and-there with his comments until I requested he tone it down, which he did. By then I'd noticed the wit, the frame-jumping (ribbit), the playfulness.

And then, I readied to head out. Somehow my phone played maybe two more minutes of that podcast. Until then it had been nothing special. What followed was...umm...spellbinding. How Marvel cooked up a plan with industry news mag Wizard to fake a history for new character Sentry that went back decades. On this day of Mercury, what could be more Mercurial?

Later, out and about, I chanced on and bought a handsome silvery frog perched one end of a text magnifier. And recall now the Brass Frog of King Solomon, a Marvel concoction afaik, comprising twin frogs with the ability to send people anywhen in time. Maybe beyond the fourth wall, which is where that inspiration now takes me.

The soap is so smooth and leaves the body in an awaken space. thanks

I had some apprehension about this oil. Dour old Saturn, cramping my style. Making a scratchy-quilled list and checking it thrice. But respect too, with a growing sense of the double-act he pulls with Jupiter. Mostly though, fear of Saturn being a grouch because though I'm astro-naive am aware there's a lot of that going on in my chart. Apprehension then, of being hauled before the boss. Only - none of that.

Instead, I'm drawn to ye olde time music of Talking Heads. And a track from their final album Naked. The video for Nothing But Flowers brings to life the feel of this remarkable oil: weighty matters assessed with a view to better times a-coming. Greys and blacks worn by dour-looking performers, grim data onscreen, and the jaunty Aquarian music they're playing. S-in-A for me has been a tender guide through a time of renewal, more kind with me than I've often been with myself and at times others. Sure, Asclepius has been part of all this, and more too. But the delightful surprise has been the supportive nature of this unexpectedly delightful oil. And that old-time video? Not sure I can link to it, but you'll find it here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2twY8YQYDBE

Exalted Luna has been such a deeply sweet materia. My Leo Moon purrs when I put it on. I find it an excellent support with releasing the need to effort and get things done (it’s been a great balancing agent to Mars x Jupiter Water, Golden Gator, and Badger.) It’s an absolute joy to pair it with Asclepius - it has absolutely changed my relationship to my chronic pain. I can rest easy, knowing I am supported and cared for. I’d highly recommend it if you are mending your relationship to self, rest, pleasure, and slowing down in a way that feels safe to the nervous system. Exalted Luna is my forever love.

In a TCM, I’ve been struggling with yin deficiency and so after an acupuncture session, I like to apply Exalted Luna to the points that need support. (Namely KD1, this Salve feels amazing on your feet).

Did I mention it smells incredible? I find it intoxicating.

Really an effective for: doing the damn thing, clearing up harmful thought-patterns (especially overwhelm) and tapping into your own resilience + competency. I found that it brought my Capricorn placements into balance and effort instead of collapsing under the pressure and weight of my own ambitions + expectations! This is a great materia for those who need to get out of their own way.

I found Mars-Jupiter Water to be supportive during the recent Mars Retrograde in Cancer for mobilizing my energy after feeling so completely depleted. It can be agitating if taken too closely to bed time and the energy hasn’t been exerted - I found it was best to use it to help prime physical activity. I love the scent - it’s spicy and gives you a little kick out of your chair.

I have a knee that aches a bit by the end of the day. I used the bath salts on it in the shower (I don’t have a bathtub in my current rental so I use the bath salts by rubbing them all over myself in the shower.) I put the intention of healing, silence and energy cleansing and said a few-words of prayer to Asclepius and forgot about it. I just realized that it’s the end of the day and my ache is gone! I’m very pleased with the results. Thank you Asclepius!!

I'd already used the salve of EL to relax, mostly, the candle, and the EL tincture, mostly to mix with other tinctures, but my experience with the oil has been very different. I've also been starfishing lol, and it feels very very powerful. It has allowed me to perceive other's emotions and states, not in an uncomfortable way, I do have quite good energetic boundaries, but it allows me to see them. I've also dreamed about my mother in a very pleasant manner every night I've worn it (I do have a good relationship with her, I just don't often dream about her). Being able to recall my dreams every night is also different.

I'm kind of a loner, and this is helping me build better connections with people.

It smells like honey to me, even though I don't see it in the ingredient list.

Before it arrived I incidentally came into contact with two very interesting books that related to lunar subjects, kinda prepping the way, I think, for the deeper intuition I seem to be developing with the help of this oil. I got a couple of Fomy bpals for this purpose, but I seem to be getting better results with this and really quickly.

Taurus in my 8th house so I initially thought I would be skipping this series (I also had very powerful results with the Venus in Taurus series) but I'm very glad I didn't.

As always, 5/5.

This being a Saturn oil, I waited to ensure that Saturn was in dignity on May 3, 2025, during Saturn’s hour. The cool-headed, mature approach of Saturn is coming through well, something I was indeed hoping to upgrade to (from my natal peregrine Saturn). It ‘played nice’ with the Enochian Saturnian king & Prince I evoked, and I’m happy to report that, after careful injoining the angels against negative effects, I’m doing better and calmer physically and mentally. There’s stuff to do, I can do it, and I will do it to make my life better, happier, and less bad. Which is a lot, seeing as I already have a lot to manage, but I think the ‘inner steel’ of this election is coming through nicely.

I’ve used this oil three distinct times with intention vs passive use and in each instance (twice for my own ailments and once for a family member) I’ve found that it doesn’t immediately alleviate the pain/illness - it seems like it needs to run its course thoroughly - but the healing process is incredibly fast. Like, complete recovery as if nothing ever happened, no lingering side effects type of fast. Surprising to medical professionals type of fast. So, so thankful.

I am working on launching a new business and this has been a huge boost to the confidence I need to do so. However, it tastes quite bitter so if that's a problem you might just want to do honey jars and such with it.

I’ve been dying to write a review just so I can rave about how pungent and dank this smell smells, yet eye opening and clarifying. Masculine, smart sophisticated, but knows how to work hard and reshape the earth with his bare hands. I love the licorice notes. This kolonia means business…puts the stankonya! Perspiration meets inspiration.

The magic is on point as I noticed skin tingling, but the scent almost immediately dissipated when it hit the water. I was hoping for similar aromatherapy as the oils. A wonderful addition if you’re adding to other bath products that are more heavily scented.

Doesn’t come on too strong, but rolls out fast! Difficult to use sparingly but why would you want to be skimpy with something this wonderful? Love to slather and reapply often

Very youthful and comes off like cotton candy. I love the way the smells in the bottle, but it wears down a little too syrupy with my body chemistry. I love the crisp brightness overtone for warm weather, but the dry down is heavy. It actually reminds me a of a Cartier fragrance I used to love, had a hint of fennel and apple… so I’m looking forward to making a custom body oil with this which I find a complementary scent that tones it down the way I want.

Mature, respectable, and enjgmatic. Flirty yet sophisticated and attracts the right kind of attention. Versatile for day and night. It wasn’t my favorite at first, but overtime I come to find it works very well with my body chemistry. I wear this when I need to be likable, but not a pushover.
