Empress Powder

I keep a vial of this in my bag or purse with me everywhere I go and I never have unpleasant interactions with strangers. I did whole body paint for this last Halloween and added a smidge of powder to the overall mixture and I have never been hit on by that many hot girls in one night before or since (speaking as a hot they, myself). I almost always get an empty seat next to me on public transit when I have the powder in my shoes: She says “give me space” though often allows moms with children or elderly women to cross the boundary (or welcome flirtation)

I hesitated to write this because I know its not in stock and there won't be another suitable election for venus in taurus...but OMG! I received a small amount of this powder in a trade on the secondary market and it is my power medicine. I have a very unhappy venus in my natal chart and this is the series that helps most.

In the same way that a pinch of Luna in Cancer powder potentiates and supercharges other series, I've found that a smidgen of Empress powder can add irresistible charm to a working. It basically makes (or encourages) people fall in line assisting and smoothing the way for whatever your magic is working towards!

Decadent, regal, luscious, relaxing, well-pleased, sought after (but ensures that only those that match your frequency approach you, while intimidating or safeguarding you from low-frequency connections). The best to bask in pleasure and a sense of overfill.

As a taurus rising, really felt the energy of this powder. It's a dose of venusian empowerment. It's strong and beautiful and demands respect. And sultry...

As a naturally somewhat conflict-avoidant person—a person trained to be polite above all with strangers—I can use some energetic help sometimes when I need to sternly defend my queendom. Empress powder is my go-to. The embodied regal feeling is real. I have no problem setting and enforcing boundaries with this powder and I’ve tested this under duress with worthy opponents.

This is the first S+S powder that I ever purchased at launch, for its own sake, rather than snatching one up because it was one of the last pieces of materia for a series still available. I'd taken to burning others as 'incense' -- over charcoal if need be -- in lieu of actual incense. That's not something I intend to use this powder for, though! Because I've come to find that this powder has a *fantastic* ability to leave a lingering, potent sweetness to my altar whenever I sprinkle it around the edges of offering bowls, etc. This sweetness is not only olfactory, though it definitely keeps on smelling fantastic for LONG afterwards, as I continue to catch whiffs of that delicious fragrance for many days, weeks, and even months later; it also lends a sweet ambiance to the space, feeling soft and decadent and so, so lovely. I've said it before and I'll say it again: the Empress is my absolute favorite.

I love this powder! It smells lovely and works too! Empress has been my favorite venus series to date. It has such a sexy strong energy to it! Empress gets what she wants, and more

Powder inside my left shoe/sock? I had doubts initially, but it WORKS! I sprinkled this, along with Deneb Algedi powder, inside my left sock and left shoe the day I went on vacation with a dear friend (let's call her D). We got bumped up on an earlier bus, we had a great rapport with the check-in lady at the hostel, and the best surprise of all: we met common friends (E & B) and had a very good time! D and I totally did not expect E & B to be on the same place at the same time! I really felt that Old-White-Man-Privilege meets Everybody's-Friend energy from these two powders, I absolutely LOVE IT!!!

I love all of the Empress materia. It's one of the ones I use the absolute most. I use the powder to dust myself. It helps me feel more driven, confident- so much I have the tendency to fix my posture and walk with my head up when I use it. I don't even think about it, it just happens and its something I've observed. It also is great in getting me to take action and make things happen as well as for me to engage in self care which is something I scarcely do.
