Helpful powder for so many things. I like to add a pinch to the sleep mask and eye mask I use for resizing tension in my scalp. The versatility and effectiveness are unbeatable.

I have always loved the powders as a financially accessible, powerful but flexible medium for the series and this is no exception! I have mixed it with other incenses and burned it as an incense (which works great!), used it to make offerings, dress candles, sprinkle the corners of my room, etc... it offers a grounded sense of relaxation and embodiment (perhaps in contrast to Jupiter's "above the clouds" flavor of calm) that is warm, nourishing, and inviting. I have used it to open easy, free flowing, heart-forward conversations with friends, family, and my husband. It offers a quiet but secure base for authentic, embodied, flowing connection.

My own Exalted Venus has Ketu grinding all over it, so it doesn't get to do the fun things it would without that influence hanging over it. But as I work through my Venus issues and engage with Venusian materia, I find that this series is really good at regulating my very strong Mars.

My temper is such that all sense of self-preservation goes out the window when it is triggered. I work very hard to keep it in check. Having to restrain my feelings makes me irritated, but using this powder in moments of repressed [grrrrr] takes the edge off of having to behave. "To lovely Venus and to Bacchus yield" is very true. EVII is good at making my Mars yield without rancor and better still, reminds me that scorched earth anger is not productive. So yes, it's lovely and calming etc but it's also good for dialing the rage down so you can get strategic instead.

I knew Sphere & Sundry’s reputation, I’ve followed both Kaitlin and Austin’s work for a long time and have so much respect for them and their offerings so was really excited to purchase some powders.

I felt like this creation would help me with some support I needed before I tried to complete a pretty heavy task that I’d been putting off and struggling to complete. I used it a few times and actually forgot I’d been using it during my practices as there was this peacefulness and things melting away, a lightness, an airy feeling… and whilst I was still focused on working up the courage and words to do my task… I realised oh wait… during the process the things I’d forgotten to do to take care of me whilst juggling a million things… inc dreading this task… I had all of a sudden done THOSE needed things, and found that things/folk (the right ones) who could aid me appeared. I was making moves that helped in different ways.

My task felt a lot more easy to tackle later on, my heart was less heavy. I was also planning lots of beautiful gatherings with the other important women in my life. What a wonderful offering.

Thank you Kaitlin and all those involved in this magical process. I look forward to future creations for my powder filled armoury. <3

I absolutely L O V E using this powder in/ on everything... empowers my magic in the way that only legit talismanic materia can. Smells lovely, an herbal lavender-mint, and feels like a divine, dreamy blessing. No surprise, since that's how the whole series vibes ;)

I don't know why I struggle so much with Exalted Venus elections, but I've noticed similar results with the newly released EV series... I bought this powder back when it was the only materia still available for this series, and had some very curious results with it. To some degree, it made me feel beautiful and confident when I carried it around on me -- but during certain interactions, I noticed a spike in 'panicky' feelings that this Venus almost seemed to antagonize? It was a very mixed bag. Later, when using the new EV, I'd notice a lot of heavy moodiness when I first started using it, but that seemed to lighten over time, and I'm less afraid of it, now. Still not sure what's going on, here, but I'm very curious to book a 'mini consult' with Adira to find out...

This powder is exceptionally powerful and is one of my daily go-to's S&S wise. I've added it to arrow-root powder for hair products as well as a pinch to my home made lotions as well as annointing myself with the oils. Immediately upon applying, I feel lighter, more beautiful even and like "all is right with the world". My husband when I've annointed him with it, gets very cuddly and more affectionate than usual - good sexy times indeed ;) Of all the venus's, this is one of my all-time favorites <3

This powder really helps me relax. Being a Martial/Solar person, this is not always easy for me to do!
It's great for bringing my partner and I closer together. It's got a lovely, mellow, sexy vibe to it.

I use this powder in all my benevolent magicks. To me it carries the same vibration as psychedelic awe of oneness.. and good faith belief in others - the respect that follows in its wake, which awakens that potential in others just through being seen. In my work I use it to bring in the divine feminine, and I feel a bit like a faery godmother when I'm directing that magic at another. It pairs wonderfully with saturnian king from DAII.

I was one of those people who had a lot of difficulty using Exalted Venus I because of that powerful Neptune influence (it made me very sensitive to sounds?), and I was both nervous and hopeful about this EV2 series because this Venus would be so close to my own Ascendant… Anyway I am happy to report that just scent/proximity to items from this series is great for getting me to relax into the moment without feeling overpowered. It’s been helping me feel more ready to be loved and give love “as I am,” quirks and all—a very personal and intimate/quiet friendliness to me. EV2 also seems great for getting a more relaxed/easy sleep! The scent is delicious and the powder itself is of high quality as always.
