I love this powder. I’ve used it in so many different ways. Mixing with oil and anointing a candle, myself, or items I wanted to use for energy scraping. Sprinkling it under my pillow. Putting it in a locket. I want to use it for a spray and floor wash too.
It has a really comforting, warm feeling to it. Like letting the light in. I went with my gut on which one to choose, going back and forth on SOA vs. Asclepius III. It can be hard to choose! I went with SOA for several reasons. I need to clear bad energy originating from someone with a Cancer stellium and I thought the solar energy made sense for that. I also thought about the line about helping with excess yin energy. My own chart is quite watery.
This also felt like a good fit for 4H Sun family issues and processing grief I hold from losing my dad when I was a kid. It’s really been the right fit for all of these things and has proven to just be such a versatile materia for all these different healing and purifying uses.
Powders are great for their versatility and the Son of Apollo powder is an absolute workhorse. I added just a little to a glass bottle full of Florida water and it makes a great room clearing spray, hand sanitizer, linen spray, doorknob cleaner, etc. I really like using it on my bed linens in the morning after I wake up. It clears away all the sleepiness from my room.
SOA powder feels bright and sunny, as opposed to the Asclepius 1.1 items, which feel serious for whatever reason. It’s got big cheerful nurse energy, if you know what I mean. So if you need that sort of energy in your life, this powder is perfect for you.
If you ever wanted to engage in solar remediation, found Golden Sol or Exalted Sol to be too much to handle, I feel like Asclepius takes that hotness and makes it more bearable, and much more internalized into self-healing. Yes, warm and sunny along the lines that you would find with Regulus, but without R’s “bigness”. Asclepius more like carves additional channels for the solar experience to run internally, perhaps into places you didn’t know were hurting. Apollo is an orderly god, and there’s a certain need for putting things in its place that is part of this energy.
