All praise to the mighty Asclepius! I'm very fond of the Son of Apollo materia. The most recent thing it helped with was, my partner's health. He'd been having some problems which I won't go into, but... after working with SOA, he found the solution intuitively. It's honestly such a relief-- I was worried about him. I love you, Asclepius!

I have, and absolutely love the main series Asclepius oil. I find the main series oil to be very effective. However, I was very curious about the SoA oil, how does it compare? Well, as many have said, it has a warmer quality to it, and doesn't have the scent of the main Asclepius oil. Aside from that, I still found it just as effective for random aches/pains. I think I need to try it out for other purposes next time (hospital, cemetery visits, etc).

I was using this oil while helping my dad through his month-long stay in the hospital after a tumour removal operation. In combination with a Mercury in Gemini BPALs it did absolute wonders for communication with the doctors. They were always helpful and there was always someone available too, which was highly unusual. Apart from that, applying a single drop of the Son of Apollo anointing oil on my forehead and chest gives a sense of protection against dark energies. It's almost like a golden, liquid light locked in a bottle - when applied onto the skin, it disperses any vapours of darkness that try to attach themselves. Would highly recommend, especially to anyone going into the "in between" spaces associated with 12th house, such as hospitals, prisons, hospices or cemeteries.

If the regular Asclepius is soothing, this one is more warming and slightly purgative (in a good way!). Great for allergy season, colds, flu, etc. I had COVID last year over Christmas, and I took my first dose of Paxlovid, used the regular Asclepius to get some rest (12 hours of sleep), and then woke up the next morning, slathered myself with Son of Apollo, and by the afternoon I felt 80% better. After 2 days of this, I was at 100% and even tested negative. This may not sound amazing, but the previous time I had it-- before I discovered Sphere & Sundry--, it took me six weeks to finally feel better.

I've only used this a couple of times, but the effects are fabulous. Perfect for returning to center, in a naturally-healthy way, and in a sovereign way. Rock on!

Son of Apollo has become an essential part of my daily ritual for embodying solar vitality. It carries a subtle, warm energy that feels like sunlight gently embracing my skin. The absence of essential oils makes it versatile—I love that I can layer it with other products without overpowering scents. It’s truly been a transformative ally for both my physical and emotional well-being.

I have both SoA and the main Aesclepius series oil. I definitely used this for the day hours, as it's a little brighter in a sunshine quality, and as it's recommended in the write up. Sensitive folks will appreciate the lack of scent. I do prefer the main series scent, but the difference helps train my mind a bit. I occasionally use both. The first few times I used this were to deal with ailments, which were quickly soothed. Since then I have used it in a healing profession and also for layering before engaging Thema Mundi, all to good use.

I haven't used this oil much, but I always feel a gentle warmth when I do. As an 8th house sun, there's a hopefulness to it that I really appreciate.

A tiny drop of this wonderful oil is all needed to get to the bottom of the pain. It has been in my short list of first kit since. Although it doesn't replace the need for medical attention, it is helpful to have a first kit until the prescribed medicine arrives.

This one is a staple for me, akin to keeping band-aids and salve in my medicine cabinet. It's so warm and lovely. I actually apply it before I sleep most nights, and I also use it before leaving the house to protect from covid or anything else that would harm my health. I also like putting it on before I exercise because I find that it helps the workout be all to my health and benefit and helps me find the balance between effort being good for me and too much effort hurting me. Like other Asclepius items I've used, this one not only helps with health directly but also helps me find the doctors and resources I need. This and the incense from the earlier SOA series both have Aragorn in the Houses of Healing vibes, but the oil is less cleansing+drying and more fortifying and nurturing. But the similarities are there of course. From that review: "Asclepius is not just the doctor who comes into the room, looks at the cold hard facts, prescribes something or doesn't, and leaves. Asclepius is the healer who sings at the bedside, who bathes the heated forehead, who listens and crys and cares. Because of this, I think it's also very useful for healing medical trauma and helping to protect from it."
