Drakontomalloi
Mother Algol, Sold Out, Talismanic PerfumesElizabeth Barrial, Mother Supreme of Black Phoenix Alchemy Lab and Twilight Alchemy Lab, ritually crafted one of two limited edition perfume oils during the series election, adjusted per her location. For those seeking the protective aspects of Mother Algol but wary of an unmoderated influence, these collaborations are a good choice, as they're more directed than the purely Stellar take, and therefore offer gentler engagement. Of Drakontomalloi in particular, she shares —$42And to Phorcys Ceto bore… the Gorgones who, beyond the famous stream of Okeanos, live in the utmost place toward night, by the singing Hesperide: they are Sthenno, Euryale, and Medousa, whose fate is a sad one, for she was mortal, but the other two immortal and ageless both alike.
This is an oil for the Gorgons – for veneration, prayer, and evocation. It is an oil of fierce and fearsome protection dedicated to the Gorgons and crafted under the watchful eye of Algol. This is a chorus of screams of primordial rage, this is a stony primeval bulwark that defends against curses. This is a guardian oil, snake-kissed and armored with unyielding scales of ekplektos, krúoeis, and déos.
Then he took up his man-surrounding, much-emblazoned forceful shield, a thing of beauty, around which ran ten rings of bronze, and on it twenty pale-shining disks of tin, and in the very center was one of dark enameled blue. And crowning this a bristling Gorgon face stared out with dreadful glare, and Fear and Flight about her; and the shield’s baldric was of silver, and on it a blue-dark serpent writhed, with three heads turned in all directions, growing from a single neck.
This is a protection oil that defends you by striking terror into those who would do you harm; it will hone your wrath, your anguish, and your fury into a blackened, hissing shield that deflects any malicious intent. This oil utilizes pure, unmitigated fear to protect you from your enemies.
Steam-distilled mugwort essential oil (Artemisia alba) and mugwort from the TAL garden (Artemisia vulgaris), agrimony (Agrimonia eupatoria), Egyptian myrrh essential oil and myrrh tears (Commiphora myrrha), opoponax tears (Commiphora opoponax), guggul resin (Commiphora mukul), nettle leaf (Urtica dioica), oakmoss and oakmoss absolute (Evernia prunastri), galbanum absolute and CO2 extract of galbanum (Ferula galbaniflua), patchouli leaf and patchouli essential oil (Pogostemon cablin), celery seed essential oil (Apium graveolens), and three snake sheds.

Opening the Eye of Al-Ghul Ritual Set
Altar Boxes + Ritual Sets, Mother Algol, Sold OutFor the first time, Sphere + Sundry welcomes renowned occult author Robert Fitzgerald, possessing decades of experience at the crossroads of traditional witchcraft and stellar magic, who received the transmission “Opening the Eye of Al-Ghul” along with two original sigils during the night of the election. Thirteen such sets were drawn by his hand the following conjunction between Luna and Algol, and are offered as ritual sets along with the 2 oz candle and Algol incense necessary to execute the Rite. In his own words, short and sweet —$336The purpose of the Rite of Opening the Eye of Al-Ghul is to generate a link with the Star as a field of magical protection against the baleful effects of stellar maleficia.
An initiation into the mysteries of Algol, for those looking for the deepest engagement Mother Algol offers with this tremendously potent primordial current. Eleven of these are being offered to the public, individually numbered, allocated as fate would have it. $336 By purchasing this, the buyer-practitioner enters into a pact not to share the words or sigils of this Rite with any other, by pain of Algol's enduring and violated gaze.

Please perform your own divinations before deciding to partake of it.$336 -
Eye of Mother Algol Talismans
Mother Algol, Sold Out, Talismans + ReliquariesA beloved favorite returns. Black clay filled molded into a three dimensional vesica piscis during the Full Moon in Taurus conjunct Algol, 2019. Red clay was then inlaid to create an iris, and a genuine .07 ct silvermist diamond installed as pupil. Engraved with Algol's seal and cured with Helleborus in boiling water in the light of Luna as she conjoined the fixed star. These Algol Eyes feature a hole through the center, meaning they can serve as standalone talismans or as beads. Each Eye includes one of the toothpicks used to create and maintain these holes, which carry quite a charge on their own and can be applied in any manner usually reserved for nails, thorns, or pins. Algol talismans can be used to provide powerful protection against the evil eye or to defend oneself against various malefactors, both human and discarnate. They can also be used offensively to dominate, bind, and weaken a given target, for Athena's shield served dual purpose. Algol is the most notoriously malefic fixed star and should be treated with the utmost respect. These talismans, and all other artifacts from this series, should be covered when not in use. Thirteen Algol eye talismans were crafted during this election. Six are reserved for box sets and 5 are being offered standalone. Please note that due to the particularly malefic nature of Algol, divination is being done on all orders placed for this series. If the results are ill-omened, we cannot ethically fill your order, and you will be refunded in full for any Algol items in your purchase. $279$279$279 -

Jup-Juice
2020 Holiday Grab Bag, Jupiter in Sagittarius, Sold Out, WatersNote: A new edition is available as part of Jupiter in Sagittarius II!$28 – $64
A beloved favorite, given new life just in time for the holidays! Consecrated mulling spices and citrine distilled with a combination of water collected during a thunder storm (8/9/19) and freshly drawn from the underbelly of the earth (well) via two copper alembics, initiated at the start of Jupiter’s hour during the ritual operation and produced until the following hour of Jupiter. This hydrosol was mixed with a small amount of grain alcohol to preserve and left to bask upon the Jupiter altar, stored with the rest of the materia since to imbue its positive characteristics and “program” its charge. Synchronistically, the day the offering photos were staged (+ the day of launching this series), the air was heavy with cloudy white mist (see photo gallery), mirroring the clouds within the freshly distilled liquid and a nod to Jupiter’s rulership over “generous bodily fluids”, including those of... a prolific nature. Shout-out to Zeus’ many offspring. The result is an uplifting, motivating, and utterly delicious spray that can be conveniently applied any time one finds themselves in need of a jolt of good fortune, improved attitude, optimistic stimulation, and good cheer. Note that this is the only offering from the Jupiter in Sagittarius series containing lightning charged components, and is therefore closest to the Lightning Rod series in effect and temperament. Use to set the tone of a space before holiday or social gatherings, as well as ritual. Spray as an offering over wealth altars, or those in devotion to Jupiterian spirits. Stimulating, warming, and motivating. Instills a sense of bright, yet grounded hopefulness, cuts melancholy and helps emotionally reframe anxiety into an exciting sense of potential and possibility. Excellent for application before engaging in brain storming sessions and yang activities for self-improvement and goal achievement, ranging from going to professional development conferences, engaging active self-help practices and materials, running marathons, working out, or networking for opportunities. Or, simply use to help get yourself off the couch and out of an emotional rut. We start from where we're at Arrives in a glass spray bottle with hand drawn Jupiter in Sagittarius glyph and keepsake citrine, available in a 1/2 oz travel or sample size for $28 or full 2 oz for $64 Golden and clear drops of essential oil resulting from the distillation are still present, in some bottles more than others.

The Ancestors
Anointing Oils, Incense, Powders, Sold Out, The Ancestral SeriesHermanubis was called to open the way and empower the entire Ancestral Series during a prime astrological election for contacting the deceased. Herbs and resins with necromantic and familial properties such as bloodroot, hops, mugwort, star anise, parsley, myrrh, and proprietary others, were combined, prayed over, and suffumigated using Hermanubis incense for the purpose of facilitating general ancestral contact. This blend was infused in organic sunflower oil, with a portion reserved to create the incense and powder. The rest was used as the “mother" herbal blend for specialty categories within The Ancestral Series — Comfort, Empowerment, and Channel. This sub-set, simply “The Ancestors”, acts as a primer for Ancestral work and devotions. It builds a bridge between you and your Dead, calling them to the here-and-now, wherever and whenever that happens to be. Use as summons before making offerings, or you can spike them with your own magic to facilitate personal ancestral goals. To best establish close contact, use these or Hermanubis materia to issue the invitation/ bring all your Dead to the yard (so to speak!). Give offerings or follow up with items from specialized sub-sets to support your desired aims and outcomes, to help you and your ancestors resolve unfinished business, or to work toward specific magical objectives with the class of spirits we call the Dead.
