Venus-Fomalhaut Subset
The Fairer Benefic was conjunct the Royal Star Fomalhaut in Sphere + Sundry’s Exalted Venus II election, but no formal petition was made to capture its influence. However, an infusion of blue lotus in jojoba was created following the standard fumigations and prayers, to become a subset of its own.
An unreleased Oil was *also* created for Fomalhaut, which had been code named “the golden subset”.
I took them with me to the beach (see that write-up if you’re unfamiliar) and had intended to ritually finish them there, but clear instruction never came, so they were brought back and stored alongside the rest of their brethren.
Contemplating whether to add anything to the Lotus subset, the idea of co-mingling the two arose, confirmed by divination. Aphrodite was born of the sea, after all, and the mixing of salty ocean and fresh, sweet waters was a particular insight I’d gleaned on that very pilgrimage. Among many other things…
Dolphin Spirit was invoked as a moderating force.
The result is incredibly potent and deeply interesting, *especially* for the esoteric adepts, magical dreamers, mediums, writhers, tantrics, and sex magical practitioners among us.
This is also a GREAT jump off point for anyone who has been/ is *drawn* to Fomalhaut, but afraid to dive head first into the deep end…

The recipient sad: That Venus materia is so comfortable for me because it’s Venus right on my Jupiter Sun and Mercury and I can really feel it! The first day I wore it I had a very sweet evening with my partner!
This scintillating little stick is silky smooth and scented oh-so-sexily. My partner commented on how close & affectionate we’ve been lately (without even knowing about the balm!), which is especially welcome as we continue to work things out after a rough patch. Thanks, Fomy!
I find that this oil is a lot more subtle than I was expecting in terms of eliciting arousal, though there is an undercurrent that seems to pulse somewhere just out of reach... I may need more time to figure out what this one wants from me before I can enjoy it as intended. It will be interesting to compare it to Amatoria, when it arrives!
This one has a more mysterious nature, like it encourages you to be calm and restrained but in an alluring way instead of a restricting one. It's like a mystical Venus oil, more Venus than Fomy, presenting a soft and introspective playfulness. Very fun!
This oil is so relaxing and light. The first time I’ve applied this was at work when I experienced some strife with some coworkers and I felt our communication ease up. By the end of our shift, we were cracking light hearted jokes and there were smiles all around!
Love this in lip balm form! I find this subset as a bit of a primordial Venus...more potent, assured, grounded, deep, mysterious. And the scent is subtle and lovely. Great to layer on depending on how deep you want to dive into Venus' waters, and also very easy to wear lightly all day.
This spell soap has led to some fruitful sexual experiences, both solo and partnered. Unlocks an embodied sense of ease and a stirring of sexual energy. Really nice before a date night (whether with yourself or someone(s) else). Can feel some sexual trauma/dysfunctions starting to shift with playful, gentle exploration under the influence of this soap. Starting to feel more comfortable with having a body, which might sound strange, but is incredibly powerful and healing and useful!!
I find myself reaching for this oil when I want to sing.
This oil has become one of my favorites for 'going out', especially if i'll be in an unfamiliar environment with a lot of people. The Fomalhaut series helps regulate my nervous system in situations like these, making me more comfortable in my body and less prone to overstimulation, and combined with the energy of Venus in this oil it helps me actually enjoy myself and meld with others in a way that still makes me feel safe and grounded. I've also found that it's really good for meditation for the purpose of attuning to Venus or remediating Venus. I apply this oil and open my hands to receiving all the abundance that life has to offer.
The chapstick is gorgeous and I find that I am more patient with others when I wear it, especially in the realm of my natal Pisces house. The anointing oil feels deep, rich, and delightfully mysterious.
fomalhaut often opens roads for my creativity and imagination. used this one night thinking it might lead to powerful dreams or absorb into my being and help me shift my relationship to the sensual. instead, i woke in the middle of the night and wrote out a long piece on venus and the way she connects to saturn, grief, family, and helping me make sense of what was then my current position in life
i’m still in awe and mystery of the place the writing flowed from. it was subterranean, deeply moving, inspiring, and healing. couldn’t understand at first the way it related to my intended usage. years later i can see that it was guiding me towards relation with some deep root issues around security and belonging that relate to blockages around sensuality
First things first this is excellent for sex and this is my favourite application. It is also excellent for drawing connections and positive attention, and for me at least it leans a bit more toward the Venus than it does toward the spiritual and intuitive elements of the regular Fomalhaut. Divine - highly recommend.
This materia feels more Venus than Fomalhaut. It smells amazing just like Exalted Venus oil. I accidently overdosed it the other night and it made me sleepy right away. I had a good rest and was able to remember my dream the next day.
I love how moisturising this lip balm is, but also, how much it puts me in touch with my more feminine side. Found myself putting on lipstick following application, which is quite unlike me xD subtle in its effects but a lovely hum in the background encouraging me to look and feel my best
I trace the symbol of Venus on my chest in the morning whenever I use the anointing oil. This subset lets me experience the day as a true playground. Everyday, mundane places and spaces feel so much more special. I, myself, embody an extra playful energy that I normally stuff down, and the people around me are very receptive to it. I feel like the character in Mean Girls who wants to bake cakes with rainbows and smiles and for everyone to eat it and be happy. Nourishing, soothing, energetic, exuberant. All at the same time!
I love to put a little dab of the oil on before sleep (sometimes paired with Asclepius materia, Cloud Kingdom, and/or Luna materia) for deep healing sleep + dream incubation. Fomalhaut always brings things up to the surface that need attention and healing which I am eternally grateful for.
The lip balm is smooth, not particularly strong in scent, but enough to be pleasant, addicting - and most of all: super, super sexy. Get it on.
I LOVE this balm. On its own it's nourishing and lightweight, all the good stuff. It's also S+S grade talismanic materia! I have always had issues with anxious lip picking, insecurity around the my lips for various reasons, and a strong aversion to most lip products. This has helped tremendously. I feel less apt to pick when I use it, I feel that my lips look smaller and softer, I don't feel gross or want to avoid eating and drinking with this balm. Perhaps a niche form of venus remediation, but this has always been a big deal for me. I always try to keep track of it because I am terrified to lose it!
This lip balm is one of the most subtle S+ items I have. Generally I find that's the vibe with Fomalhaut for me - subtle/invisible but supportive and benefic, like something just under the surface has your back.
The smell is really nice and tropical, and I love the new packaging and firmness of these lip balms. I do find that when I use this balm vs not, I am definitely in a better mood/able to just get on with others a little better (I can be prickly sometimes). It also feels reassuring to myself to put on.
I'm finding the oil thoroughly enjoyable. Upon the first application I noticed that all the traffic lights were green, and that publicly I was sailing through some very difficult astro-weather. The door is open and the opportunities are present; the synchronicities are uncanny and deep. This may be the most 'chill' Venus materia to date.
This lip balm smells amazing, and is not too strong as to trigger scent issues for me. Love the new tubes and labelling. After applying I felt a heightened awareness and ease at the same time, almost like a subtle intoxication. I opened it after getting it and once I smelled this I had to use it. Hoping to use with intent on more creative pursuits, I think it'll be fun!
This might just be one of my top three favorite products EVER from S+....it's just that good. As I've worked more with Materia I've realized that the form combined with the power can really activate aspects of the election/magical work, like Luna waters just hit different because Luna has command over water and waters, ect. The Venus-Fom lip balm is exactly that: this is a form that adds synergy when applied because of the sensitivities of the lips! My favorite lip balm to anoint others with a kiss. And the hydration....this is a deeply hydrating lip balm. Just luxurious and perfect in every way. Highly *highly* recommend.
Wore some Venus-fomahault materia today and went to the Pier. As I sat looking out at the waves a powerful gust of wind hit my face and I was overcome with a sense of calm I haven't felt in a long time. To add to it the playlist I was listening to was matching the setting perfectly. I proceeded to bawl my eyes out,not because of sadness but because of the sense of love I felt at the same time this sense of calmness came over me. It was like I was being touched by spirit and felt love and appreciation that I haven't felt in a long time,and tbh I feel that's seems so scarce today but spirit reminds me that the feeling is always there if were are willing to be still and listen, and my nereid guides always save me right before I sink below the surface, to help me stay afloat.
The oil from this subset consistently adds a profound je ne sais quoi to any and every activity engaged that falls under Venus's dominion. Art museum date? The art is more impactful, more affecting. Visit to the gardens? Every flower's scent is stronger & more transporting. Devotional prayers? More earnest, more heart-aflame. Bedroom activities? [blushes]. I have materia from every Venus series S+S has created, and by far, this subset is the one that I reach for the most.
For sex (magical or otherwise), self-love in all its forms, meditating, and connecting with Venusian energies...this is unparalleled. I went through my 10ml roller faster than any other S+S product. My Venus in Aries lies in the 8th house, and this quenches its thirst and cools it down. Incredible stuff.
The anointing oil adds a touch of magic to my routine, promoting creativity and deepening focus. Its soothing, nurturing energy feels both calming and inspiring, making it ideal for meditation or artistic pursuits.
I got a mini of the anointing oil of Venus-Fomalhaut, and I am absolutely snapping up on a full size when it's restocked. Erotic, sensual, but somehow sacred and holy. Very good for... um... adult activities, but also for mediumship and self-love (of the physical or nonphysical variety). Sexy and sacred.
Similarly to another reviewer, I sometimes don't feel this one doing much at all...then suddenly it's *right there*. Suddenly, I have a moment where I feel the way I used to as a child, like a piece of my soul was returned to me. Or suddenly, my hampered libido has returned, strong and healthy. Love it and excited to keep working with it.
Unsurprisingly, this one is tough to describe. I don’t feel it mentally or socially, like Aerial Queen, or even physically/emotionally like Exalted Venus II. It’s hazy and porous — with Venus materia, I can usually *physically* feel it working on my heart-space, but Venus-Folmahaut works much more subtly. It’s capillary-action-y: apply it, feel it a bit, shrug, go about your night, then all of a sudden, you’re in the middle of the woods on a moonlit night with your lover. It’s very healing in that it gently guides you towards viewing your romantic past, present & future on a cosmic scale. Facilitates deep one-on-one connection & opens not just the heart, but the spirit attached to the heart. Aside from all of that, it’s WILDLY trippy sometimes, which kind of lightens it up??
Literally how had I not reviewed this one yet?? omg. This was one of the first offerings I got from S+S and the first from this series. I purchased this because someone said it was uniquely good for dealing with/healing from sexual trauma and dysfunction. I'm not gonna share the details on a review lol but the truth is, using this oil was part of a series of Venus devotional work I did that resulted in a deep, profound, miraculous healing which I am still gobsmacked by. I wouldn't feel right to say, "It happened for me, it will happen for you!" but I will say that if you're looking material to support you in working with intimacy and sex, this is the one. Use it on Venus day or night and in her hour for extra potency or when first connecting with it. I hope everyone who seeks healing from this potent offering finds it!
