Mercury in Gemini Anointing Oil
Organic 100% jojoba oil poured over wildcrafted and organic herbs aligned with Mercury in Gemini during the height of our election, fumigated with frankincense: dill, wormwood, parsley, marjoram, bayberry root bark, mullein, skullcap, and seeds of fennel, caraway, and celery. Sour Patch Kid candies, a large copper-alloy Mercury dime, and alloys of white gold (silver + gold) and red gold (copper + gold). Eight yellow opals per mother vessel.
Anointing the base of the skull at the back of the neck as a sort of anchor, and then two equal outer points, such as the top of the hands, wrists, bottom of the feet, ankles, or ears and lobes — well, this Power seems to like that! Other nice points include the crown of the head, heart center, and lower back.
Revs the mind, quickens the tongue, and lightens the outlook. You may even feel a literal tingle of the tongue following application.
A nice low-level daily stimulant, like an energetic cup of coffee. Easy to lose track of operating in the background, but greases the Mercurial gears that so much of modern life depends on. Adds a bit of luck and effervescence to the experience, and is likely to draw money and communications as well.
Can also be used to dress candles, anoint objects and petition papers, or in any way magical Oils are oft’ employed!
Offered in a 1/2 oz Standard Vial (with optional dropper cap kit), 10 ml “flawless glide” Steel Roller (both with keepsake opal and variegated blue leaf), or adorable 5 ml Mini.

i absolutely love MiG materia for dungeons and dragons and was already a huge fan of applying the salve before all my game sessions. recently, i anointed one of my d20s with this oil during mercury's day and hour as part of my practice with hermes. during the next game session, i rolled three nat 20s during three separate, critical moments that dramatically altered the game outcome. it was absolutely MAGICAL and felt like hermes had followed me from the altar to the gaming table. the inclusion of sour patch kids as an ingredient is so inspired, and i love how fresh and herby the oil smells. i like to take whiffs of it when i'm feeling down, and it always makes me feel more sparkly and cheered. this also makes a wonderful offering to hermes himself. it definitely sounds like he approves!
This oil has officially become my "cool girl juice". Gemini is my 10th house and I wear this oil when I want to be the most expansive version of myself: when I want to remember just how big I really am, the endless possibilities that await me in my future. This oil has reconnected me with my true potential. I am forever grateful.
I love how this oil smells! It's great for getting things done, but I usually have to layer it with something a bit more steady to keep me on track.
I put Mercury in gemini on my partner before a trip (I can’t use it because of a mint allergy). The speed with which everything unfolded afterwards was insane.
As we walked out the door the cat sitter pulled up, who we were worried would make us late.
It’s a 2 hour drive to the airport and somehow it felt like FIVE minutes— in which I realized that the bnb had NOT been booked at the destination we’d be arriving at tonight. somehow, the dates for the rest of the week were still available and hotel accommodations were made at a discounted price for our arrival.
Literally AS we parked in the lot, the shuttle to the airport pulled up immediately which was a relief because TSA was estimated to take 70 minutes. Turns out, there was no one in line in front of us. at the PHILADELPHIA airport.
And tickets were bought en route for my younger brother to join us on the trip (Mercury, siblings).
All of this feels like it occurred in 30 min but it’s been 3 hours. even though we technically left later than we wanted to, we arrived with 90 minutes until our flight even boards.
Praise Mercury!
I love the smell of this oil, it's almost like liquorice. I apply it on Wednesdays and Saturday nights. As someone who writes for a living, it's great for work. Writing, research and communication all proceed smoothly. It's also useful for travel. When I annoint with the oil beforehand, I always get to my destination fast with green lights all the way. The energy is outgoing and playful. I find it's quite a lucky oil. I can get the result I want almost instantly, which is quite unfamiliar for me as someone ruled by Saturn who is used to waiting years to get what I want. Would highly recommend.
Using this oil as part of my daily morning planetary prayers has led me to build a relationship with Mercury over time and get a better understanding of its qualities. Bright and quick minded, applying this oil is a go to problem solver and I find that it helps me to wake up in the morning and do all of the Mercury things...commute to work, interface with tech, and come up with sound solutions. My mind has become more capable of seeing more than one side of a problem and aware of my own blind spots.
This was a relabelling sale purchase from last year. I wanted something I could apply more regularly to help me build a better relationship with my ascendant ruler, mercury. It’s a bit like having caffeine, but more playful and forgiving than coffee: lighter, and without the jitters. If I need an energy boost or know I’m going to be social, this is great for that (it’s like sticking mercury in my 1st house!). It’s also helped me weather some mercury rx issues. If I don’t have a goal in mind, I can get a bit adhd-scattered, but if I do have a goal, it helps me complete the task with more speed and ease. What would normally require more spoons requires much less — I’m actually wearing it right now to help me complete a bunch of product reviews I have put off for months! It layers well with Quicksilver Tongue for creative writing sessions. And I love the mild, herbal scent, which makes it very wearable.
I like how fun and green this oil is, and how it seems to get greener with time! It's an interesting zesty but herbal smell. I find it useful for subtle Mercury things eg travel, walking - but don't find the effects as obvious as some other forms or series, likely because I have Gemini in the 12th. I do think the 'fun' vibes help with offsetting the struggles that come with the 12th though... but it ends up balacing out to a neutral for
me.
I *love* this oil so much and I'll definitely have to make sure I don't run out. It's delightfully invigorating. I have a natal Mercury in Scorpio so the light and playful spin and mental energy boost is extremely welcome, and it seems to make small talk with random strangers a more enjoyable experience. I don't usually use it before art or writing or anything like that, it can actually ruin my focus for those particular things, but it's fantastic for driving.
I pretty much always keep this in the car or my jacket pocket and it never fails to make things go more smoothly!
Cheerful, playful, social, fun, energetic.. Use it to charge your social batteries and when you are having hard time standing to people..
It literally layers and blends like your favorite go-to. It’s got the “pair of jeans that for just right” sing along vibe to your “what a wonderful world” tune of life, even if it’s the Moonlight Sonata. It’s its own message delivery system—like you calmly think, “I bet I’ll get a text.” *ding* It chats well, but it doesn’t nervous chatter. It mimics and wavelengths. Robin to Batman, comes to mind type thing—intelligent intuition into the best magicians assistant out there… Adaptable to the adjustments and eager to solve. It’s amazing.
It doesn’t feel like a speedy urge to do something mentally stimulating. It’s more like once you start doing it, you don’t want to stop. But you have to make the first move. My natal Mercury is in a Sagittarius detriment, so this Mercury in Gemini oil I find very helpful. It’s also great for writing content for your website.
This Mercury in Gemini oil is truly exceptional and I do not want to ever live without it again 🙂 it has been working very differently than expected - I thought I will use it to bring my many writing ideas down on paper, research and think about things a lot. Well, now I don’t have time for that anymore. A few days in I got a new, very well paid job, then several more huge things happened very quickly relating to the house topics Gemini rules in my chart. Changes I have been hoping for for years, suddenly happening with such ease and quickness. I absolutely love this oil, the ease, playfulness, speed and versatility Mercury brings through it.
I received Mercury in Gemini oil as a gift, and it quickly became one of my favorites! The scent is subtly energizing, and it helps my thoughts flow effortlessly. Whether I’m tackling technical tasks at work or coming up with creative ideas, this oil brings a playful but focused energy.
Maybe my favorite smelling oil! The smell alone has a subtly stimulating quality. This oil lubricates the mental wheels so nicely…wit and words flow more easily with it on. It’s easier for me to pick up concepts at my very technical job, as well.
I have both the salve & tincture from this series and, while I love and use those all the time, this oil is IT if you’re trying to come up with social media ideas, or even just USE social media. The first time I tried it out, I literally picked up my phone and made a reel JUST LIKE THAT — no overthinking, no brain freeze. I didn’t even set out to make a reel, it just happened. It also makes writing easier, which makes sense, but one nice surprise is that it seems to *also* alleviate the monotony of any type of busywork. Not sure if this series is getting a boost from Jupiter’s transit through Gemini, but this ADHD-riddled brain of mine is QUITE grateful this exists. Possible side effects: I went hard on the NYT Crossword backlog and lost like 5 hours of my life one night, but that’s on me lol
Also…impishness alert. I’ve never had any issues with Exalted Mercury, but this one and Quicksilver Tongue are a little tricky. Nothing too crazy, just like…objects flying out of my hands, breaking stuff, accidentally hitting ‘send’ too soon…stuff like that. Good to be aware!!
Fun and playful! But to those of us with Mercury in Gemini natally, better off layering with something more serious like DA, otherwise distraction overload plus a minor hangover.
As a Gemini rising with a not-so-happy natal Mercury, I use this oil to help me feel more *myself* and support the playful, curious side of my nature that sometimes gets drowned out by other facets of my personality. I love the smell as well.
LOVE this Mercury in Gemini offering! Really great “kick start” for any activity using your hands or mind: baking, knitting, writing, crafting, doing your nails etc. This is lighter, more invigorating & fun for me than the exalted Mercury in Virgo. Perhaps because Gemini is 5th H for me and trines my natal Mercury in libra. I don't “over analyze” with Mercury in Gemini, as I do with the Virgo. When I need to knock out a lengthy writing project, I pair this with a little bit of Saturn in Aquarius. Stellar combo for "getting things done." Will for sure be ordering more of this. Thank you S+S!
I started using this oil regularly when I took on writing daily horoscopes, and it was WYLDLY helpful! I had started out using Mercury in virgo materia, but I am already a very intense Mercury person, so the increased seriousness/nitpicky nature of virgo wasn't particularly helpful in my writing process for this project. It was also because it was *daily* horoscopes. They weren't meant to be these long essays, and they often needed a light, whimsical air to them, as not every day brings complex enough astrology to go into the depths. So, the shift to Gemini opened up the process to a whole new level. I released my own limiting views on my writing and my astrological knowledge, and simply let the words come and the delineations flow. The levity brought me out of my seriousness and helped me create playful and detailed horoscopes that made for easy reading with helpful advice. Highly recommend for those projects where can't find your flow. May it be a way-opener and an obstacle remover <3
This year is ruled by Mercury for me. Using a smidgen each morning has been invaluable. It has helped me to be more conscious of my words and has proven to be invaluable!
The wrapping upon arrival instantly made me think “CANDY!” and my hands literally shook as I unwrapped it. That first time I think I was overeager which ended up with me getting a bad headache. Now that I know how much to apply, and who else this one plays most nicely with, when I do use it I find myself being incredibly productive but still able to engage in play and fun at the same time. The work still gets done…just with more laughter.
I'm an overthinker that gets into analysis paralysis mode quite easily and this (which I do usually combine with Exalted Mercury) is amazing for that. Personally, this doesn't help prioritize, it just gets rid of the need to prioritize and I just start doing the computer/tech based tasks I need to get through in the order they pop into my head. Definitely helps when I'm driving around the city as well!
This oil has helped me in so many cases! It has ensured smooth travels through long haul flights and tricky itineraries, helped make daily commutes on the road far more pleasant, and aided me in work situations where I needed to be quick and clear with my words. I find this iteration of Mercury far more tolerable and pleasant than Virgo, personally.
I have both the anointing oil and the body butter of this serie, and both have been really nice and effective for my day-to-day activities, since I mostly do writing, divination, being present online and doing a lot a communication. I bought it in a Mercury/Gemini profection year, and it has helped me a great deal with all of that, and with learning astrology with more dedication. It helps with focus, but can also lead to other new ideas, new paths, new ways of thinking. The oil has a more quick / effective / precise / on-the-nose effect than the body butter, but both have been helpful all the same. I find this serie less "caffeinated" than the Exalted Mercury serie, and more suitable for everyday, and it's already more attuned to my natural state than the Exalted Mercury, so it runs really smoothly to me, and helps me cultivate and be more at ease with what I do. The scent is neat too !
This is the first mercury materia that I have used and I am definitely happy with it! I found that for me the write-up holds true- "Revs the mind, quickens the tongue, and lightens the outlook." It feels like it adds a sense of playfulness and light humor to my normally serious, no-nonsense demeanor. I was feeling quite giggly at times. I found myself very sensitive to its physically stimulating effects. (I tend to be more sensitive to stimulants in general though so take that with a grain of salt.) I would liken it to having a couple of cups of coffee without the negative side effects like jitters and palpitations. Incredibly enjoyable!
My current profection year features Mercury/ Gemini. Leaning into this energy as I develop my relationship with this house in my chart is an essential balance for the true heaviness and current difficulties in the world. Returning to a sense of lightness and humor after leaning into the work is helping to buffer against burn out. Letting in a sense of playfulness restores my wonder, gratitude and sense of continuous connectedness to all the life buzzing around me.
I have the oil, the honey, the powder, AND the BPALS. I’m obsessed with all of it. It is especially my best friend during Mercury rx’s.
Feels like it looks like it smells - upbeat, youthful, shimmery, cheerful, creative, on acid at the farmer's market vibe, very much a "way opener". As a mercury in virgo ruled person it's been really interesting and pleasant to interact with such an outgoing/yang-counterpoint to the more meticulous/neurotic version of the planet I'm so accustomed to.
