One of the main reasons I decided to start engaging more with this series is because Gemini is my 10H, and I wanted to work on showing up more fully as myself, and developing my ‘legacy’. I realized very quickly after taking this series more seriously (and primarily using the oil-based forms) that I wasn’t really doing what I truly wanted with my life, and using MiG made it very easy to start to taking full ownership of my authentic desires. This salve (and the oil) makes my aura feel BIG and BRIGHT. Like Regulus actually, except even MORE uplifting! Similar to the body butter, but the bb is more light, carefree and silly while the salve feels more intense and passionate, almost euphoric to me. I can naturally project myself into my surroundings, be seen and noticed, and take up space. My life feels ripe with possibility and potential, and I find it easy to believe in MYSELF and what I have to offer. I feel that this is only just the beginning, but this series is a godsend. I’m so glad I gave it a second chance and will absolutely be coming back for more.

I adore everything about Mercury in Gemini and this sweet smelling salve is no exception. In fact, I would say the salve hits harder than the oil. This is a fun Mercury - witty, breezy, social, chatty. Much less intense than Mercury in Virgo (which I also love). This is the perfect thing to put on for networking or parties, especially if you know few people at the event. It gives you just the right amount of conversation and curiosity to make you a fan favorite at any social event.

A good creative vibe, good to work with when you are doing some serious creative projects. I loved applying it on my hands and let the words just sly through me.

Love the smell of this more than any S+S materia I've used (and that's saying something). INCREDIBLE scent. The moment I opened it and inhaled the hair on my scalp stood up in the most pleasurable way (something that has happened a few times with S+S materia, and is the sign of a very good, very fruitful relationship for me). This is the first salve I've tried (snatched it in the sale) and I am a forever fan of this method of application. For my fellow Mercurials, I find Mercury materia that hits my 10th (like MiG) much more enjoyable than that which hits my ascendant -- asc is much more prone to anxiety effects if not layered and mitigated somehow.

Upon receiving S + S materia, I usually engage with it quietly and offer it a candle during the appropriate hour and day before my first use.

With the MiG salve, I did not do this. Instead, on impulse, I dabbed some on my skin right before dashing out the door to work one morning. That day I had multiple tricksterish occurrences, one of which was me accidentally touching something very gross that had no reason to be where it was. Message received, Mercury!

Several weeks and offerings later, the salve has been awesome at helping me have better mental energy and focus, without the irritability I usually get from stimulants. It helps my fingers to be more nimble for my work as well.

The salve has a good texture, and wonderful smell! That’s something I hadn’t considered before using it. When applied, I would say it’s similar to a body butter but more grounded. I can see why many apply it to their feet, and I think I’m going to try that!

I got this after hearing the recommendation to put it on the feet early in the day to aid in tasks and travel, etc throughout the day and it really is quite lovely. Adds a little pep in my step, a wind beneath my feet if you will. Makes for easeful, charming interactions and quick solutions.

I've favored Exalted Mercury up until now... Mercury in Gemini gives me a much less time warpy, adderall hit of intensity. This series is much more gentle and much less like taking magical speed for me. Glad I circled back to test it out.

I love this salve! I’m a fan of Sphere and Sundry’s Mercury materia in general, which is no surprise, since I’m a writer and Mercury in Virgo rules my natal chart. But I don’t have any Gemini placements, so I was really looking forward to seeing what a Gemini Mercury series would be like for me. And I’m delighted with the results! For me, this salve provides a lot of playful energy that I don’t generally have. I find that I can use it to get a lot done, or just have a fun time and be more creative. It’s very flexible in that way, which is wonderful. (And fitting, given that this is Mercury we’re talking about!) I also found that frequent application didn’t overload my nervous system, which was a big plus for me, since I like to apply Mercury items pretty regularly. And I love the lemony scent of this salve, it’s just so light and sweet! Overall, Mercury in Gemini strikes me as lighter and more easygoing than the Exalted Mercury series, which I also adore. But I’d definitely recommend this Gemini one to anyone who wants some Mercury materia, but found that Exalted Mercury left them feeling frazzled or burnt out. And I’d also recommend it to anyone who wants to feel more playful and experimental in their creative endeavors! I’m very glad I purchased it.

I went to a community event with this and some other gem-merc stuff on recently & the event was packed packed packed (usually my nightmare) and I was nervous but okay and even surprised myself by standing up & saying my thing in front of everyone. Even more impressively, I was there to scout for something and ended up seeing an old friend who had two totally separate pieces of really super essential important helpful game-changing info. this mercury is not like exalted, it is not that reliably well behaved, more like its great for like super handy surprises. im liking it more and more as I go
