This salve smalls gently of camphor, wonderful texture (as all the S+ salves have)! I usually apply on my knees and rub excess into the backs of my hands (I work with my hands). It gives me the overall impression of being safe on the top of a mountain on a bright and crisp day.
Lends a greater sense of stability to the knee I’ve had issues with. AIDS meditation and diligence. Assists with energy/commitment for grueling or long term tasks and enhances asceticism introspection without inhibiting social consciousness/awareness.
I gifted this offering to someone who works in management with younger people and it they report it helps them with energy, authority and discipline throughout the workday, as well as supporting in pursuit of long term goals.
Excellent remedy for undignified natal Saturn placements, particularly when strongly placed. There is a quality of self-possessed silence to the salve: it doesn’t speak loudly but imparts a sense of support that can be lacking otherwise.
This isn't a fun or indulgent salve and I don't find myself slathering as much as with other ones. However, it absolutely lives up to its promise of calm groundedness and safety.
I’ve used this at night to help with sleep and whenever I do I swear I have the deepest sleep! It does help quiet your mind and also just give yourself some distance and breathing room from big emotions and lots of mind chatter. I haven’t used this for any other purpose other than sleeping, but I do feel like I’ll use it when I just need to lower my anxiety a bit during the day!
i have a chatty inner monologue that occasionally makes it hard to wind down for bed or to try to meditate. applying a dab of SiA to my forehead is like submerging my brain in an isolation tank - immediate 'muffling' effect that quiets the mind in a very relaxing way. i will say that this salve doesn't silence the mental chatter COMPLETELY, but quiets it enough to give me distance. it's a great ally before bed whenever i have a lot of my mind, but also excellent anytime just to switch off my inner monologue. i find this materia especially helpful at the end of a day of using more stimulating materia (such as Exalted Mercury).
To say this is a strong jasmine aroma is an understatement, and the salve preserves the delightful indolic qualities of the flower.
I find this so potent and stilling that I rarely reach for it (as with most Saturn materia). Good before bed.
I accidentally found out that this is good for rest! It is embarrassing to admit that I applied this several nights in a row believing it was the Cloud King salve I’d ordered at the same time. (The both had the older clear lids with the symbol instead of the name, and I was usually applying them in semidarkness. After the first time, I just reached for it without thinking twice!) Well, it worked for me. My experience with the Saturn in Aquarius materia has been that it calms me down when I’m overstimulated by reducing my mental clutter, which can often keep me from falling asleep. It’s a keeper for sure, and one I’ll definitely be reordering.
When I need to fully unplug, this is what I reach for. It's like an isolation float tank for my soul. Saturn in Aquarius lets me carve out a space to sit and recuperate in when the world gets overwhelming. That said, I feel attempts at intrusion more keenly when I wear it. Disconnect your doorbell to manage the irritation!
I initially thought this salve was too heavy for me, but after experimenting a few more times I realized that it’s best worn alone, not in the presence of others (at least for me). When I feel the need to cocoon myself after an overstimulating day, I can slather myself in this salve and it’s like a grounding, protective weighted blanket. Almost sedating. As I expected it’s incredible for sleep and rest. I also find myself more covetous of my alone time after engaging with this series more often, and I can see how it would be good for curbing co-dependent tendencies. I have more productive and enjoyable alone time and am more motivated to cultivate a nourishing inner world (I have a Saturn ruled moon). It’s almost like a bypass for Lunar remedies when Lunar materia is rubbing me the wrong way and I need to soothe myself in the ways that my body and soul already recognizes.
The smell of this salve is so unique, also. To me it’s like an animal smell, or that of bone or leather, but it’s herbal at the same time. Intriguing and grounding.
So very calming and assuring. It feels protective and brings down anxiety with a suprisingly soft, yet very powerful touch. The scent is quite nice, and not overwhelming. Absolutely wonderful sleep aid. Like floating in a cloud of calm stillness and restful silence. Compared to Asclepius, a lot more mental and less body conscious, yet somehow brings them (mind and body) together. I will rotating this, Asclepius and DA salves at night - depending on my need. SiA for mental calmness, Asclepius for body pain and DA for protection.
When I heard about the (then) incoming Saturn in Aquarius series, it felt like a hard pass for me. Then, I read the (deeply gorgeous) write-up, and my mind was quickly changed.
I reach for this salve in advance of difficult situations where I could use some support with maintaining healthy detachment. I also reach for this when I’m spinning out with worries and need help quieting my mind.
This salve really takes me back to the video Kaitlin posted of the sounds of river (or lake??) ice cracking/singing. The vibe here is deeply meditative and stilling, calling one to truly contemplate. I love this for sleep also!
I’ve Saturn in Aquarius natally, but as it’s stationary retrograde in the 5th I began to wonder if all of my 4th and 5th house problems were inviting me to explore my relationship to Saturn. I have been using small quantities of this salve in conjunction with the Eirene subset of Venus in Libra, and I’ve begun to get the wider view I’ve needed on some of the things Saturn has had me say no to that have also brought so much grief, walking away from managing my family’s agricultural enterprise chief among them. I feel like I am making so much progress in being able to see my creative projects and family issues more clearly. I’m instating better boundaries with family members with love but also the appropriate level of detachment required, with the ultimate goal of creating a better legacy for all of us in the long run. It’s hard to have to say no so much, but I feel strengthened by this salve to do so with the reminder that it helps keep space open to be able to say yes when it’s right.
I experience chronic anxiety and insomnia. I’ve been putting this on before bed and it’s like being under a heavy weighted blanket. I feel safe and protected through the night. One of my favorite products, thank you.
Creative drive and a sense of independence or freedom in expression. Discipline with passion without feeling tethered
There’s a darkness to this salve. Deep and unmistakable. I use it sparingly on my feet before my meditation and self-Reiki and sleep. It quiets my mind and shows me the suffering of others so that I may send compassion and Reiki to them as well. I can feel my practice maturing. As you would expect, it’s definitely not a light and pretty scent; but it is powerful.
