Forgemaster’s Iron Palm Dit Da Jow I
Sold Out, Sundry, Waters[sf_iconbox image="fas fa-magic" character="" color="accent" type="boxed-four" animation="" animation_delay="200"]
Sold out — a new batch is now available ⚒️[/sf_iconbox] This is the result of a standalone project one and a half years in the making. It was created during a supremely fine Mars in Capricorn election, the red planet rising in its hour, fortified by Jupiter in Scorpio on the midheaven, and anchored by a stalwart, exalted Taurus Moon. As always, the chart can be found in the image gallery. The Forgemaster's Iron Palm liniment is a specialized form of jow, intended to warm, strengthen, and fortify, in addition to providing the expedited healing properties of other more generalized dit da jows. It can be used in the formal context of iron palm (or shin, or foot, etc.) training, but it also provides energetic and magical properties encapsulated by the Mars election itself. It serves as a form of exterior armor and attunes one's vessel to the Martial sphere in a way that is both productive and invigorating. Apply and rub well into the skin before and/ or after workouts or combat, whether of a metaphoric or physical nature. For a deeper dive into the workings of this supremely fine, well aged formula, Austin writes —The furnace blazes, the iron glows. Blood burns in the hammer-arm of the blacksmith. Stubborn metal becomes malleable, open to convincing arguments from the hammer and the strong hand that wields it.
Fire, iron, and blood. This is the holy trinity of Mars, as crucial for creation as it is for destruction. While many know Mars as the Warrior, the red planet is equally the Smith. In the Smith we see the constructive side of Mars, the blood, sweat, and tears necessary to shape and re-shape our lives, our bodies, ourselves.
The Smith’s alchemical action is an especially apt metaphor for the transformation of the body. The layers of effort required to re-forge the body are quintessentialy martial, and there is no exercise regimen as close to the forge as Iron Palm.
Iron Palm refers to a family of limb-training methods which strengthen the skin, muscles, tendons, ligaments, and bones for both defensive and offensive purposes. Many styles also emphasize the internal side, cultivating increased qi emission capacity for both striking and healing purposes.
Though there are many variations, the training almost always consists of a daily routine of hitting progressively more resilient materials. A canvas bag of bean, then stones, then metal. Though the results are dramatic, the training process is incremental, with as much attention paid to healing and perfect recovery as to anything else.
Over the years, a great number of liniments have been created for this purpose. Generally referred to as dit da jow, they are widely available and widely used for general athletic purposes well outside of the specific practice of an Iron Palm regimen.
The Forgemaster’s Dit Da Jow is one of these Iron Palm formulae, but with a Sphere + Sundry twist. This Jow was created in a fully ritual manner and at a precisely elected astrological time.
Prayers to Mars the Forgemaster were intoned to bless and empower this tincture at the outset of the operation. The operators were consecrated to the red work, and the medicine vessels adorned with magic square, seal, and sigil.
The elected time seemed a spectacularly appropriate and rare moment for this work. It was the Day and Hour of Mars, with the red planet exalted in Capricorn and on the Ascendant. This powerful, earthy Mars was further supported by a trine from an exalted Moon in Taurus, and meanwhile, Jupiter in Mars-ruled Scorpio crowned the zenith (MC). Not only was Mars strong, but Mars, the Rising, Moon, and Sun were all in Earth signs in order to ensure that the planet’s iron blessings were sufficiently rooted in the very bodily goal of this creation.
After the evocations were said, the herbal and animal ingredients were sealed in their alchemical bath for 18 months.
The result, the Forgemaster’s Dit Da Jow, is not only rich with the spirit and energy of this powerful Mars election, it also possesses the excellent properties bestowed by the materia of the formulation itself.
The basis for this recipe is the Iron Palm formula of Yu Cheung (1894- 1952), one of the famed Five Tigers of Canton. His iron palm feats were famously documented in the early 1900's by photographers, and though his stone-shattering exploits are too numerous to cover here, there are entire books dedicated to his training methods. Crucially, he was known not just his power of his hands, but also their sensitivity.
This formula was designed by him to cultivate both strength and softness. Protection for the hand, energy gates, and organ systems while also maximizing sensitivity and the capacity to express qi for both healing and striking purposes. Yu Cheung’s formula is the basis for this liniment, though it has been modified in small ways for reasons of both ethics and efficacy.
This liniment is designed to unblock the qi flow, activate blood movement, relax tendons and ligaments and increase bone strength. The two types of qi this formula stimulates are wei qi or “defensive/guardian energy” and regular organ qi. This formula activates both in harmony, and is one of the many reasons it is superior to a store-bought dit da jow.
Forgemaster’s Dit Da Jow is formulated to facilitate the healing of bruises , tendons, sinews, and bones, and to reduce pain, strengthen blood vessels, reduce swelling, and mitigate blood stagnation. It also protects the meridians and mobilizes both protective and organ qi for health and vitality.
The Forgemaster’s Dit Da Jow is, of course, perfect for an Iron Limb regimen, but has a number of other uses. Both physically and energetically, it is an ideal pre- and post- workout liniment for any martial striking practice, such as boxing and kickboxing. More broadly, it can be used to ready and fortify the muscles, tendons, and joints in preparation for any athletic activity, and to facilitate the swift healing of bruises. Magically, it is appropriate for works of fortification and the cultivation of personal power.
Bottled and a portion made available to the public on the first Tuesday after Mars returned to Capricorn in 2020, a year and a half after creation. Note: Should not be used in areas with mucous membranes, skin rashes, open cuts, or sores. Apply a small amount, wait an hour, if no allergic reaction occurs, continue with use. External application only.

Water of Venus in Libra
Sold Out, Sprays + Hydrosols, Venus in Libra I, Waters
I’ve sprayed myself with the Regulus spray prior to meetings. I find it makes me both more self-confident and willing to engage with others. The solar aspects are filtered through a “courage” filter to me. So this has been particularly helpful when I’ve had to be firm. Will also chase the seasonal blues away.
I love the smell! This is my first order and exploration of this space. Since I ordered, before I even received the water, I got recognised at my work for the first time in a year almost, which made me realise once more I need to be in a place where what I have to offer is appreciated. I also have already two interviews lined up. The Regulus water helps me stay grounded during this process. Upon application I actually don’t feel such an intense effect comparing to my ViT oil. I feel more energetic, warm, bright, centred and notice my complexion appearing warmer.
I have to give some major props to this stuff for giving me the gumption to not only follow through on a longheld creative goal, but to completely decimate any and all stage fright I was anticipating. Shortly after getting the Regulus water, I started booking studio space to work on personal choreography, which culminated in performing my first burlesque routine to a very receptive and supportive crowd. I grew up performing on stage, but this was the first time I’d ever performed alone, let alone stripped. A combo of Regulus + some of the Venus materia helped me feel confident and comfortable on the stage, and I felt incredibly recognized for my talents and creativity.
I bought this because I need some solar remediation, as my natal Sun is afflicted.
At first I didn’t really jive with it and felt like the attention I was getting from it was a bit too much, but I’m starting to come around to enjoying how it feels for other people to think I’m important, gifted, and worthy. I think for a long time I felt like feeling that way wasn’t acceptable, and I’m learning that’s not the case.
To be honest, using this hydrosol when your Sun is afflicted takes some getting used to. Some of the realizations I’ve had using it have been painful but necessary in order to become a better version of myself. I’ve had to do a lot of work in order to feel comfortable wearing this, but I’m happy to because I genuinely think it helps me improve myself. I’ll definitely buy more Regulus products in the future.
This is a very useful, multi-purpose spray for anybody with a chronic health issue, chronic periods of sadness or grief, or self-consciousness about some aspect of their life. Also, for anyone facing a situation, obstacle, or environment where they would like to do their best socially.
I go through a 1/2 oz bottle of this stuff quickly because I use the spray so much and can use this with no noticeable negative effects at work. I’m now buying the larger 2 oz bottles to prevent running out.
In any case, I recommend using the spray on both “days you don’t feel well or are tired” and “days you feel well” because the spray can help you in either scenario. I’m diabetic and there are some times I just don’t feel well when I wake up in the morning even though I take insulin and get plenty of exercise. This spray helps me dispel some effects of fatigue and a few liberal sprays can help perk me up at “low energy points” or when waking up and groggy from sleep.
For that use/purpose, the spray is consistently effective at providing improvement. I also often end up smiling and in a peaceful, more positive mood a short while after application – regardless of whether I had a rocky start to the day before using the spray.
Other notable observations:
1) I started using the Regulus II spray, in conjunction with Venus in Taurus and others, a few weeks before I was offered my current job in July 2019.
2) I have used this spray for several events or interviews that seemed to go well or better than I could have expected in the time since.
3) With use of the spray before social events of any kind – even phone calls – I become significantly less self-conscious and less concerned about “what can go wrong in whatever social situation I am facing.” This is especially helpful for days where I started my work day feeling impaired by lack of sleep.
Overall, I’ll continue to buy more of this spray and recommend it. There are so many uses for Regulus that it seems difficult to go wrong by getting this one. A final example:
I even use this spray, along with some of the products from the Deneb Algedi line like Lord of the Sacred Eye, to give myself a boost of confidence and a reduction of nerves before making phone calls in the training I’m doing at work. These calls are all on new-to-me material that I have to put in layman’s terms for whomever I am speaking to. They involve the calculating of complex rates and keeping track of various protocols I have to follow as well.
Anyway, the calls really set off my nerves when I started making them because so much can go south if I don’t hit upon key things to say when I need to. I now find the calls more bearable to take on in general during my work day. Since I’m still relatively new to the calls, this spray and other S and S products certainly seemed to help me get to this point faster than practice would alone.
Partner and I don’t normally go to black tie events but an old friend of mine was organizing for Her clients and got us tickets to a charity gala. So we suited up and I spritzed both of us with the hydrosol. When we got there we were surrounded by high society legends (think of names like Rockefeller, Guggenheim, etc) and it was the private home of one such family. There were even a couple movie stars. For whatever reason, even though we only knew my friend, it was really easy to move around confidently in such an insular world. People came up to us and even introduced themselves… they complimented us as a couple, and several people even asked for our info. I kept thinking they must be mistaking us for important people! Even though the environment was about 10 degrees removed from what we’re used to, we were able to swimmingly navigate with such ease. My partner even struck up a convo with one of the movie stars like it was nbd.
Anyway we put it on without any real intention. But I’m sure if we needed royal favor, we would have gotten it! It was very good for my partner who wanted to get more confidence and face time to pull off his own charity goals (saving animals, environment) down the road with such people.
This is the first Sphere + Sundry product I’ve run out of! It’s the only water where I feel the urge to apply *lots* at a time. It’s so good too. I love it for a quick boost when I need to be visible, and I’ve used on it myself and another person when I was helping them with their resume and how they present themselves. Great for public speaking, letting my good work shine, and generally cheering myself up. I especially like to spray it on my throat and heart area. It smells good, too.
wow- kaitlin’s products are always amazing. i got this and let me just say that my modeling career has taken a huge huge huge turn for the better. people love being around me and can’t get enough of me, whether it’s in photos or in person. absolutely the most potent solar plexus kinda focused aura building product i have EVER used. i need more. lol
I wore this for an exhibition opening I curated and since then have been called back to collaborate more and speak to a class of high level art students at a college. People seem to want to let me take charge any time I’m wearing it. It’s very good for helping me wake up in the morning? sometimes when I’m so depressed I put it on and it just lifts me out bed and gives me this “ok i’m back in my body” so much of it has been for me about feeling in my body which I feel out of so much. It changes the way I walk. It like is probably my favorite product and I own several.
I’ve been doing some workings to keep the dysfunctional higher-ups at my job feeling good will towards me. I’ve been using the Regulus Water (and oil from the first batch) to help make things good for me at work. They also seems to be helping me not get so bogged down by the BS from those folks. Their foul moods don’t affect me nearly as much as they used to. I radiate around there now, and most of the time, the supervisions respond to the glowing vibes coming off me. A quick spritz of the Regulus Water helps me maintain all the magic I’ve been working there! It’s beginning to sometimes feel effortless!
Regulus items are particularly attractive to me because of my sun huddling away in my 12th house. So I got the Regulus water and I can already feel positive effects. I make more space for myself to be myself and no longer care so much what others may think. I really start to claim my prerogatives in a more proactive way and challenge negative thinking more often. For the first time in a long time, it feels like I can *breathe* again. I can’t wait to see what else this offering can accomplish. My deepest sincerest thanks to Kaitlin for creating these golden blessings.
