Water of Deneb Algedi II
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 is an oil of protection - protection through bindings, limitations, and force of will. It is an oil that protects by defusing, inhibiting, constraining, and banishing curses, and of shoving your enemies back and away from you. The Goat’s Horns fortify you by setting boundaries, maintaining endurance, and for empowering you to overcome your enemies through sheer will, determination, and a stubborn and formidable refusal to capitulate.
This oil is relentless.
Cypress essential oil and leaf (Cupressus sempervirens), patchouli essential oil and patchouli leaf from the TAL garden (Pogostemon cablin), myrrh essential oil and tears (Commiphora myrrha and Commiphora kua), opoponax gum resin (Commiphora opoponax), Solomon’s seal root (Polygonatum biflorum), rue essential oil and rue from the TAL garden (Ruta graveolens), grey vegetal musk, goat’s rue (Galega officinalis), and ethically sourced goat horn.

Swamp Gator Subset
Re-Labeling *SALE*, 30% OFF, Available, Saturn in Capricorn, Anointing Oils, Incense, Powders, Lip Balms, Bath Bombs, Spell Soaps
While the goat is probably Saturn's most commonly regarded animal patron (given its association with the sign of Capricorn itself), alligators and crocodiles too are tremendously Saturnian creatures.
Primordial... ancient... cold blooded... sedentary… quiet… lurky af… and above all, lethal.
Their lifespan is typically from one to two Saturn cycles — some documented cases being far longer — further compounding their natural alliance with the Saturnian sphere.
Two Gator sub-sets were created for this series: Swamp and Golden.
Swamp Gator is, in two words: down and dirty.
The downest and dirtiest in fact — its formulation comprised of actual swamp mud (graciously harvested by Austin’s absolute saint of a mother in the depths of Florida), gator vertebrae, gator teeth, and shavings of skin.
All of which were ethically, legally obtained...
Fun fact: the alligator population in Florida is approximately 1.3 million, and the Kingdom of Animalia is inherently eco-friendly and sustainable to harvest from in conditions where populations are healthy (in this case overly so), the animal has lived under good conditions (preferably in their native habitat), and they have come to meet a natural or necessary end.
The spent corporeal form is one of Saturn’s many gifts to the living, and making practical and magical use of these abandoned Spirit-shells is a worthy tribute to our Outermost Sphere: governor of death, of practicality, and of all well-aged and lifeless matter.
Fossilized dinosaur bone is another ingredient in the Swamp Gator sub-set, which is an invitation to explore the deepest, darkest, and most yin aspects of the Saturnian arcana (within and without).
Full disclosure: this is the most brutal and initially off-putting of any offering from Saturn in Capricorn’s coterie.
Swamp Gator is excellent for gnostic exploration of the darker aspects of nature, and facilitating shadow work. Excavate your darker features... those which remain hidden from even oneself. Incorporate them into the ego-matrix to build a more integrated, honest, and fully realized personality, or decide to banish them.
The main danger the Gator represents, is in not knowing what lurks…
In practical terms, this would be useful for direct application and magical intervention in dark circumstances where one needs protection from genuinely seedy, dangerous characters, and finds themselves already mired in circumstantial swamp muck. Or things like exploring the Tunnels of Set, or adding atmosphere to some quality H.P. Lovecraft time.
Swamp Gator’s main value for most people is going to be for exploration and incorporation of the shadow-self, and of exploring the crueler, more primordial aspects of all Nature.
Get right with the Swamp Gator in you, and with the Swamp Gators of the world.
Swamp Gator Oil is a combination of hemp and castor oils, gator vertebrae, teeth, and skin, fossilized dino bone, and swamp mud, ritually consecrated to talismanic standard during an excellent Saturn in Capricorn election. It is available in your choice of 1/2 oz standard vial ($80), or 10 ml hematite roller bottle ($65). Mini 5 ml vials now available ($33)!
The Incense and Powder are made of the same, and arrive in a 1/2 oz cork top vial for $33, or very few 2 oz bulk pots for $99.
We are beginning to roll out soaps and bath bombs for existing series! Sign up for the Waitlist to be notified when they become available.
Soaps: 3″ x 1″ disc for $48 (please view important tips here)
Please note that the loaded herbal components in the spell soaps can make them slightly “scratchy” on the skin, which can serve to exfoliate, or, use your hands to work up a lather and transfer it to whatever areas you wish to wash!
(If you do not wish to apply Swamp Gator items directly, a fetish for their vector may be used.)
Note that Sphere + Sundry's Incense Powders are designed to be burned *without* charcoal, on beds of premium ash in a firesafe dish or plate. Pour ash, then pat or use a tool to create a relatively smooth surface. Pour the desired amount of Incense Powder into the palm of your non-dominant hand, and use the other to assemble a thin peaked mound, line, or sigil, pinch by pinch. These can be quite thin if desired. The neater and more ridged your shape is, the better it will burn! Light the top of the ridge to ignite.
Taking time to prepare Incense in this way can be a meditative and centering experience, and allows the practitioner to create custom burn times with zero waste. If your line ends up too long, simply use a knife to 'cut' the fresh powder away from the ignited portion to use later.

Oil of Hermanubis (First Edition)
Anointing Oils, Available, Hermanubis I, Reduced Price
As the Sun descended into the realm of the underworld on the day of Mercury’s exalted cazimi 2018, organic cold-pressed olive oil was combined with ritually harvested cemetery cypress, hops, barley, and other herbs and ingredients sacred to Hermes, Anubis, or favored by the dead, along with myrrh, hair from a black dog, and 24k gold leaf.
Anoint glassware or plates used to make offerings to the dead, to draw their attention and stoke their appetites. Use to dress candles for necromantic operations or apply to other icons employed as intermediaries between yourself and the deceased. Apply to images or items of dead loved ones and ask Hermanubis to support them in navigating their landscape and experience, and help guide them to where they ought to be.
Apply to the self to make communication with the dead easier or before channeling and seances. Apply to the heart and third eye as a meditative aid to excavate death gnosis from your immortal soul, beyond the confines of your incarnate experience, and generate comfort with your own mortality.
1/2 oz glass vial for $66 $20, since Hermanubis II is now available.

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).
