This is the materia I have worked with the longest and most consistently and to very pleasant results. Day to day, I don’t feel attacked personally or psychically and yet I wear DA to keep my boundaries and my energy clean. I work in clinical medicine and I know that to do my job to the best of my ability I require clean and clear boundaries. This materia supports and sustains the relative sense of safety I have cultivated through other modalities and real time therapies. If you consider yourself a highly sensitive person, I would direct you to this materia above all else. It seems to support healthy nervous system functioning (that’s been my experience). It doesn’t remove all sensation around threats or perceived threats but it does provide clarity and a sense of appropriate authority.

I’ve been using this body butter for protection during dream and astral work. It provides excellent protection and security, keeping yucky stuff far away. It pairs very well with Luna in Cancer, being a vigilant protector without interfering with important work being done by the subconscious while asleep, dreaming, on the astral or meditating.

I’m just now starting to use it more regularly in the daytime, for its other qualities. Very much looking forward to creating a great partnership with this strong, capable product.

I immediately feel a sense of protection and safety when I have it on. I’ve been applying it to my hands and back of my neck before leaving the house or before seeing clients and I absolutely love it. It’s creamy feel and gorgeous smell is a plus too!

This body butter got me through a very stressful family situation in which everyone but me was sick. I isolated from them as much as possible and I relied *heavily* on this body butter to reinforce my own boundaries and health. I slathered myself in it during the hardest days. The scent was so reassuring and the energy was strong. It helped me not panic at my situation. And I never got sick, either, which never happens to me! I'm so grateful. This is one of my staples as a result.

I find the body butter to be really helpful when I have to go out foraging in the wider world these days. I am less fatigued, physically and psychically, when I return, which is a nice bonus I was not expecting. I’m also less likely to make those impulse indulgence buys, which is funny and also helpful!

Good Stuff! I use it for shielding out in the world. I feel much more grounded, too.

What a treat the DA BB is! It is both soothing and protective at the same time. Jupiter’s influence in this form of DA is very noticeable - it feels optimistic and comforting. Glad I got the bigger jar, because this immediately went into my daily and /or nightly rotation.

I needed something to help me when I work with my clients as sometimes some come in to my practice with negative energy which can stay around. Since using the body butter of Deneb Algedi this has improved dramatically.

I got this BB for personal/bodily warding and interpersonal boundary-keeping, and it's worked miracles for both. It does work the way the write-up says it will, though. A local unhoused person had been chronically harassing me while I walk my dog. I was hoping he'd just be put off by DA and stop, but instead the local police swept all the unhoused people out of the area where he was staying (literally the first day I wore the BB, everyone had just been swept out). Not something I would have initiated intentionally! So I would advise to be aware that the mechanism of action isn't in your control and might not necessarily be something you particularly agree with, but it will get the job done. I've also used it for benign boundary-setting with colleagues in a new workplace, and it's been very effective at that without alienating anyone or compromising the friendliness of those new relationships. It's not the best-smelling S&S series, which is uncommon (the correspondences are what they are, what can you do!), but it's not a foul smell (I'd probably describe it as kind of musty?) and it fades quickly and is easy to cover up with perfumes.

This body butter feels like reliable frond who is there to calm you down and reassure of sucurity and protection. very pleasant smell that was welcomed even during my nauseated pregnant state. Equally good for morning or before bed.
