I use this kolonía on Tuesdays, as part of my work with Mars.

Powerful refresher. When tired and you want your aura an energegic reboot, this is the one. I follow this kolonia burst usually immediately with other materia, because otherwise it can produce a brief, mild headache.

Cleanses me to my core- differently than Asclepius where my energy becomes a blank slate, this feels like I’m cutting away everything not me so that me soul can be sensed more clearly, strongly.

Useful for auric clearing in preparation for use of other Antares materia - I use this before the oil and it helps me engage with it on a deeper level. Can also be used for a quick energy reset before being active or a long day ahead, I find it a really positive and energetic force.

Wow. I used this kolonia after using jupiter in sag during jupiter hour. It took my Jup high and definitely brought it down a bit too low for my liking. I sprayed a little more of the jupiter in sag water and was right back on my Jup high.

I noticed throughout the day I did everything I needed to do without thinking twice. I had a task that I knew would take hours, that had multiple steps, that I just motored through. I had originally planned to do one part one day, and finish the rest the next.

When I kept feeling tired or like I should take a break, I noticed that there was this drive in me that kept powering me forward to get it done. I kept saying what if I just kept going and I’ll take a break at the next part? The next part would come and I said the same thing. Before I knew it, the task was finished in record timing.

I also found I was courageous and gave a last minute reading that I typically wouldn’t, that went really well. I’m shocked that the kolonia alone packed such a powerful punch. Paired with Jupiter in sag made everything very fun and enjoyable.

I love this product! I've been using it for months with great success as a pre-workout cleanse for my hands before applying the oil or just on its own. I really enjoy the scent profile especially--it smells like your grandpa's best cologne layered with saffron. I notice that it has an almost instant clearing of focus for me....when I get this out and use it my energy focuses and I am able to step into my workout with single minded focus...a real gift if you do martial arts. I highly recommend!

Not sure how to engage with Antares? I find that the energetically cleansing and light format of kolonias are some of the best ways to go about it. I found again, using Antares kolonia was enough "oomph" to give that Antarian flavor without it feeling overwhelming. Pairs well with DA materia as well. I also found that it facilitates martial reflection by again clearing a space for that to happen. I would say it is still somewhat vigorous and would engage with it during the day.

I’m so glad that this is part of the Antares series. I have a very powerful natal Mars and I’m careful about how I engage with any energy that’s Mars-y. This kolonía is so purifying, I always use it before working with any of the other Antares materia, and it helps channel that energy so effectively. It’s really indispensable for working with Antares and Martial energies, super grateful for this!

My natal Mars is exalted in Cap but unhelpfully crammed in the 12th house; it's a part of me that I like but which feels demonised and unsupported by the outside world in various ways. The kolonia feels like a welcome clearing of the pipes to approach, draw on and express this energy, and I love the saffron scent and colour.

i have mars in detriment in my natal so i bought this kolonia in hopes of giving him a little extra boost. i've been mindful to only apply during the days and hours of benefic planets and the results have been wonderful. clearing up long unsettled arguments, having more motivation to do work that i've been putting off, feeling general increases in vital energy. highly recommend all around!
