Water of Deneb Algedi II
Water freshly harvested from the headwaters of Mt. Shasta, used to distill traditional associations for Deneb Algedi in a set of copper alembics: primarily marjoram and blue chalcedony, including a handful of sundry herbs from the consecrated DA herbal mix, and a wee bit of goat hair.
Spray to reinforce boundaries, physical and metaphorical, and provide protection. Facilitates a grounded and somewhat stoic sense of uprightness and right mindedness. Helpful for thinking through tactics, logistics, and topics of import. Aids in establishing a sense of security and containment. Averts the evil eye.
Use as a linen or spacial spray to fortify against psychic attack and other disturbances.
Available in your selection of 1/2 oz travel or sample size glass spray bottle with keepsake chalcedony for $30, or a 2 oz for $75

This has been inordinately useful in entering workplaces where one needs to appeal to management to be on side, create energetic boundaries with colleagues, and protect one in workplace power dynamics. It allows one to be resolute, to show up, and to be able to inculcate in those who use the hydrosol an attitude to reject enmeshment and let one be. Spray this in the morning before work or – after a shower or salt bath post-work – to create a container for oneself for greater self-possession. It acts quickly, so very convenient.
This review kinda got out of control lol.
Tl;dr – I LOVE IT
I work in Harm Reduction, for those unfamiliar with the term, essentially I help people who use drugs.
Recovery looks different for everybody and a major principal of harm reduction is “any positive change”. Whether that’s using clean paraphernalia or checking the substance for dangerous additives. As one can imagine our mission often bumps against that of the police.
I’ve been working with DAII since it’s initial launch and I was quite nervous inviting any kind of police energy into my sphere. But let me tell you, EVERY experience I’ve had with the police has been incredibly fair and productive. I’m a single black female driving around with naloxone, needless and fentanyl test strips and maybe sometimes a little maryj but when I’ve primed myself with DAII water or have my little jar of bluing liquid, that uncontrollable wave of fear and dread that usually accompanies the sight of police cruisers is muted. The panic and trauma of seeing people who look like me harassed and worse by police is calmed, freeing up brain space to think. And if I must interact with them, I find myself more confident and them much more receptive.
I could go on and on, I didn’t even mention how wonderful it layers with Venus materia keeps the creeps at bay lol.
But all this to say, if your spirit has led you to this series, try it! Layer it! And know that you are favored and protected
I only got DA II about a month ago and I’m already half way through the bottle/spray. You can never go wrong with DA and it seems to compliment so many of the other materias. I do psychotherapy work and it helps me maintain energetic boundaries with clients – something a pisces moon like moi can use a lot of. Pretty sure I will be ordering refills for the rest of my life.
Remember the Sta-Puff marshmallow man from the Ghostbusters movie. Deneb Algedi is your Sta-Puff marshmallow coat, warm and insulating and protective. Like a cocoon in a bottle — so much has happened this year and it feels like I’m waiting for the other shoe to drop all the time. And the centipede does continue to kick off his sneakers, DA didn’t stop that, but it certainly insulates the blows. Let me explain one recent example:
On Sunday, the first after Black Friday, with packages in my arms, I dropped my iPhone in a puddle, managed to retrieve it and get to the jeep with my packages, only to find I had lost my keys. I left my packages on the hood and retraced my steps, retrieved my keys and returned to the car where my packages were untouched.
But the iPhone? Still on and functional with license and credit cards in its case / wallet intact. When I plugged in the charger, it disabled the charge bay and said it was wet. Several people suggested dropping it in rice, but one friend googled and found out that it was a myth and indeed, more phones are ruined by rice dust than water. So on top of the silica gel packets with a fan and two days later, it takes a charge quite happily.
This is so typical of my experience with DA. It’s a karma monitor. It doesn’t change life on earth as we know it, but it cushions the sharp edges, and one has a distinct feeling of being blessed and cared for with DA running in the background. Not as other-worldly as Venus, or productive as Aldebaran or Mercury, but a stable foundation.
DA I was my first S+S materia and I thought it would be a difficult act to follow. DA II, with its Jupiterian halo, is even better. Cannot recommend more highly.
The waters tend to be the materia form that I use up the quickest. DA II being no exception and a piece that I think I’m absolutely going to have to replace soon. Perfect for opening workings around altar spaces or quick “pick me ups” throughout the day on person or space- especially for circumstances where you can’t have burnables and easier to apply over a larger area than an oil. DA II especially helps me feel grounded, centered, a breath of calm before whatever lies ahead, and more connected to the seafaring inclination of the election.
I use the Deneb series primarily for protection of my mental peace and my apartment, for keeping away unwanted and negative energy. I use the water spray every evening when I go to sleep; one spray above my pillow. I do feel like it helps me to sleep in a more calm way. I definitely appreciate this series.
My experience with the first and second series is similar to eepster’s. I’ve used both series when interacting with my Dean in relatively conflict-free but important scenarios. With the first DA series I felt I over did it, it’s nice to be confident with authority figures, but I almost missed an opportunity I was so focused on asserting my authority and rights within the power structure.
With this second series I’ve noticed more of a calming effect, I can lead, ask for and receive the information and support I need, and so on, without having to resort to “demanding my rights”. I appreciate the mediating and benefic “good will and confidence” feeling of this series.
Water of DA2, unlike the original (OG) DA, ends up being much more of a “cloaking” water. I have always enjoyed the water sprays, particularly using DA for some passive protection throughout the day. This series feels even more stealthy, as opposed to a very active protection that OG DA provided. OG DA was often like a metallic coating. Water of DA2 is much more easy to carry on you. There are many ways to “block” negativity. One way is to swat it away when it comes your way (OG DA). The other is making it so that it never makes the target (DA2).
