Salve of Fomalhaut

helps me to feel flexible, safe, and connected across a variety of settings, both magical and mundane. wearing this i can walk around in places that would feel energetically overwhelming as tho i am an explorer

Between an old, old cervical injury and the weight of the world, my neck and shoulders carry a lot of tension. Salve of Fomalhaut relieves that, every time. This soothing formulation is smooth and slightly warming, brings me acutely present in my body and feeling reassured. The scent is somewhat like liquid beeswax and 🙂 nori. I apply before bed and it’s as though I’ve handed off all tensions and worries too …Someone Bigger who is readily *taking care of it all* so I can rest.

Fomalhaut is my night-time favorite. This is such a potent series but I must say that the scent is not my favorite. This salve is perfect because there is no fishy odor. I like to rub it on my legs and feet before I go to bed and it always leads to vivid dreams.

Cause it primes my easily tensed body for sleep like a hit of opium, honestly. If I could just bathe in it..

Love calm energy with a feeling of being dissolve and merge with pleasant warm and living ocean that this salve brings. The scent is very mild but super pleasant as well.

I’ve been using this salve at night alternating with aerial queen and the combo of these two has saved my sex life. I’m not kidding!

Super relaxing for use during meditation, I apply to pulse points and use the prayer included which is beautiful. Pairs so well with Asclepius and Exalted Venus.

I'm very sensitive to anything that can alter my senses (caffeine, etc.) I haven't quite figured out how to use this salve or what to layer it with to mitigate the undesirable spooky sensations I get, it seems to open me up to stuff I try to block out and am not really ready for. It gives me wobbly legs so it's definitely a night time thing. It's pretty potent, anything from this series gives my partner crazy dreams so I try to layer some Asclepius on them first so I'm not affecting their sleep. Scent wise this reminds me of the Cloud Kingdom salve! I'll keep playing with it to try to figure it out, it is very relaxing but not exactly the best match for undisturbed sleep for me.

Fomalhaut strenghtens my foundation and energetic body in ways that have helped me channel more energy, more easily, more quickly. Using it during shrine and temple pilgrimages heightens my awareness of ambient energies. It doesn't give me much beyond relaxation if I sleep after applying, but putting it on half an hour before initiating a magical working or pilgrimage is spectacularly helpful.

I've used my Fomalhaut salve several times now (no strong seaweed smell!) and I find drawn to use it at night and whenever I have tension in my lower legs. While Jupiterian based salves tend to diminish anxiety, the Fomalhaut salve feels like its also prepping you to go float somewhere. Yes, to the diminishing of tension and anxiety, but it feels more as a preparation for another type of exploration modality (one which you may not need your legs to sustain/ground you). If you're feeling world-weary, Fomalhaut invites you to take a break.
