Quicksilver Tongue Incense
$33.00 – $99.00
Quicksilver Tongue herbal mix, consecrated via fumigation and prayers during Sphere + Sundry’s election, later ground alongside vanilla bean, sandalwood, myriad resins, essential oils, and opal. Flecks of precious metal alloys: silver + gold (white gold), gold + copper (red gold).
Made into a combustible incense powder whose smoke banishes blocks to creativity, lending a playful and potentially productive (if you sit down and work at it!) atmosphere to the room in which it is burned.
Smoke bathe the body, offer to the Muses and Spirits of your creative Sphere, fumigate Instruments of Art(e) — musical instruments, paint brushes, pens and quills, papers, canvas, the throat for singers, the feet and shoes for dancers, the computer, mouse, and keyboard for digital creators, or whatever mediums you employ for creative works.
Note a slightly altering and time-warping effect may result…
Pure, uncut herbs, resins, and essential oils. Nothing artificial, and no fillers.
Offered in your choice of 1/2 oz glass vial with cork top + hand embossed Quicksilver glyph for $33, or a 2 oz bulk pot for $99

Customer Reviews
I love this incense, and I can't wait to use it as an offering and to use it in for my creative works. Right now, I have used it almost exclusively as a mood-setter as I prepare dinner for my family! I want joy and love to be infused in our meals, and for dinner time to be a time of love and pleasure, not...stress. This incense really helps me relax in those last few hours of my day with small children. It helps me remember what's important and honor that in a beautiful way. I feel like the spirit of this series gets infused into the food I cook!
I've found this to be an excellent offering for Goddesses like the Mousai (Muses), Aphrodite/ Venusian Divinities, Hermes/ Mercury, and I imagine also those who fall under the Jupiterian Sphere. I don't think I've offered it to Apollon by Himself, but considering He is associated with the Mousai & music, I think this would be very fitting as well. In fact, I feel most any Deity would enjoy it, as many of Them have some connection to what the series represents. I have used this incense in rituals, magic, prayers, etc. and it seems to be a good addition to such things. But I also feel (perhaps about the series as a whole) that a bit of intention/ direction is helpful here, only because that appears to assist in "unlocking" more specific aspects of creativity & associated energies that one may wish to target.
I’m a writer, and this is my new go-to to use around all of my writing goals, projects, and spaces. It settled in with my energy really easily, and it feels both soft and powerful at the same time. I love my Quicksilver Tongue!
I often burn incense related to specific goals in my creative writing endeavors, helping to set the stage for inspiration and progress to happen. This incense is the one I most frequently turn to for such use. Works great on its own, and pairs very nicely with other materia! I've often gone hours and hours working away on something without losing my creative streak, letting my imagination flow with ease. This incense has also helped me get back on track when my attention starts to drift, reminding me why I love to write. I have quite a few incense vials from S+S, but none have been used up as much as this one!
A reliable friend in the studio or workspace. I used this for a brainstorming/ vision board-type session and the amount of ideas/ advancement I made in just 3 days was mind boggling. I was on fire and I credit QT with helping me make great strides in a limited timeframe.
I LOVE Quicksilver Tongue! Which might be because of where it falls in my chart. The oil and tinctures are my go to, but the incense are great to set the space for any creative workings. I find them especially helpful if I feel stuck. It's like a creative blockage clearing for the space I'm in but also my vessel
I used this incense before and at the beginning of important presentations and meetings with key decision makers in my field. Will smoke bath myself, give smoke baths to my Mercury, Hera (my statue of Hera is with a peacock), and Jupiter statues. And then let it finish smoking on my table to set up the right ambience. Works very well every time.
This is one of my favorites particularly for writing or getting into the creative zone. I’m 2/3 of the way through my second vial and I am constantly amazed by how potent this magic is. It’s a portal opener, it transports one to dreamier, more expansive vistas. I also find that it enhances surrealism and opens up channels to alternate realities. It’s a beautiful aid for creative blocks and monotony by enhancing fluidity, increasing absurdism and facilitating change. It’s weird, magical and feels like a mini psychedelic journey.
I know I'm not the first one to say this but something about the QST series is just All Around Good. Easy to interact with and effective. This incense is my favorite to burn before meeting with a client or recording a podcast. It also sets the perfect mood to write and create in general, I find it flows pretty well with whatever the activity is. Adjustable and fluid. I love blending this with Regulus III for immaculate vibes. 10/10.
Hard to overstate the value of this incense as an offering, especially to such intermediary, social spirits as the Muses, the Graces/Kharites, and any other Powers with whom you might seek communion and conversation. It's been near-universally well-received!

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.

QT is one of my favorite series, and this incense is one of my favorite forms. It has really helped move some blocks in the art studio, allowing me to feel more grounded and flowing with my work. It smells so nice, too, as all the items from this series seem to.
Of all the incense I have (and that’s a lot!) this is my favorite one. I love the scent and it makes me feel joyful while doing creative acts and workings.
This is in my top 3 favorite series. I use it often. I’m a creator and working on a new business venture that requires a lot of writing, designing, and problem solving. It’s been immensely helpful when I need to get into the creative mindset.
I’ve used this incense a few times to help inspire me/get a new perspective on my work, and it worked like a charm. I love the scent too.
This incense has been fascinating. I’ve used it to write eloquent letters and to inspire artwork. It’s a different type of inspired communication and absolutely lovely!
The energy of this series is just so friendly and airy and amazing! The oil and incense give me the sensation of being blessed by the moving kisses of many emerald feathers The incense really does get the pleasant mercurial vibes flowing and encourages not only mental agility but creativity and a sense of fun and fluidity, which can allow for both inspired creative work but also an easier workflow for otherwise more aggravating chores (of the clerical nature).
Highly recommended for both Mercurial and Venusian workings and ovations, likely a positive candidate for planetary remediations; plays very well with other series and people new to magick/materia!
After burning this incense on Mercury’s day, I had the most unexpected conversation with a stranger and realized the undeniable influences of this election only later when thinking about the wittiness of our banter, charisma, and depth of conversation. Shortly after, I began reading a work of fiction and found myself drawn into the story, as if I were there myself – something I have seldom experienced in adulthood. I’ve used other items from this series in social situations and have always had a wonderful time, but this incense in particular has struck me as particularly potent. Another gem from S+.
Pure inspiration. I absolutely adore Quicksilver Tongue incense. The scent and energetic charge are uplifting and complex – it helps with focus and also brings on a relaxed, dreamy state. It’s been really helpful with a writing project, and just puts me in a good mood in general.
