Balm of Hermanubis
A olfactory homage to Hermanubis, ritually blended in the election window by thee one and only Mrs. Elizabeth Barrial of Twilight Alchemy and Black Phoenix Alchemy Labs. Of which, she shares —
Be silent in that solitude,
Which is not loneliness — for then
The spirits of the dead, who stood
In life before thee, are again
In death around thee, and their will
Shall overshadow thee; be still.
The bridge between life and death, between the conscious and unconscious, between the soul and the body. This is an oil to be used during the process of understanding life, death, and the spaces in-between. It eases the pain of grieving, opens doorways to the liminal space between states of being, and enables you to better understand life by confronting and embracing death. It is a scent of stillness and quiet, of standing in cool shadows. It is the solemn and joyous embrace of the beloved dead; you are not alone.
Cypress essential oil and cypress from the TAL garden (Cupressus sempervirens), myrrh essential oil and tears (Commiphora myrrha), organic hops flowers and hops essential oil (Humulus lupulus), cedar leaf (Thuja plicata), cedar berries (Juniperus monosperma), western red cedar essential oil (Thuja plicata) and Atlas cedar (Cedrus atlantica), peru balsam (Myroxylon pereirae), and black vegetal musk.

Rod of Asclepius Talismans
Asclepius I, Sold OutGoldsmith Tony Mack collaborated with Sphere + Sundry during the equivalent election in his location to create a stunning set of talismanic snake bound Rods of Asclepius. They feature high grade carnelian set over viper’s tongue, frankincense, and sage, cast in silver. It just so happened that he made 13, a number he did not previously know was associated with Ophiuchus. Our goldsmith reported two weeks after the Work was done:
[pullquote]I’m starting to notice some effects from the staffs on myself. I’ve been getting up way earlier than usual with a lot of energy. Also some inflammation I’ve had for months started to disappear.[/pullquote]
Wear on your person for healing and to help transmute poison into medicine. These are helpful for preserving health and warding away disease, but can also be used by those who have an ongoing health struggle or are taking medications that produce negative side effects. These are wonderful to wear if you work in a healing profession and want to bring the Divine Physician’s blessing into the realm of your client or patient work.
Each talisman comes with a silver chain in a beautiful box hand decorated by Tony. It includes a bottle of Asclepius anointing oil, recommended times for feeding and empowering your talisman, and a prayer to Asclepius.
Smaller 4ct carnelian pieces for $429 are sold out. Ornate 24ct carnelian with snake backing, herbs and viper's tongue inlaid into the bezel for $729 are also sold out.
If you would like an Asclepius talisman in the future, please make your selection and sign up for the Waitlist below. Getting a sense for demand will allow us to cast another run sooner rather than later.

I felt called to this perfume oil as soon as I saw its name and read the write-up for it. I’ve worn it during ritual which has the effect of drawing me deeper into what I’m doing, kind of like pressing your ear into the wall to hear the words murmured on the other side of it. It easily facilitates a ‘tuning in’ and I have a much easier time clearing my mental debris to actually listen to my intuition, which can so often be drowned out by my overthinking. I’ve also applied it before bed and have the most vivid dreams, where I’m either journeying or doing dutiful shadow work. Highly, highly recommended.
I ordered this right before Kaitlin put out the social notice that the Hermanubis II series was up.
My learning process has always been initiatic, and I was called toward spiritual channeling recently. I figured I may as well see if S+S had something to support the journey… always.
Anyway, the scent is ETHEREAL and physically gorgeous. In the two days I have ritually worn it, I have come into contact with two acquaintances who have revealed they have a strong spiritual channeling practice. Perfect timing? Yes. Hermanubis works with swiftness!
I can’t wait for future revelations. Beautiful offering and great blessing to my collection!
