 Herbs
of Venus Oil
This sweet but not
flowery oil has fresh, herbal tones. It is made from the
Goddess-associated herbs myrtle, bergamot mint, palmarosa, milfoil (yarrow), and annual tansy in a base of fractionated coconut oil.
Myrtle, along with the dove, sparrow, and swan, represent the goddess
Aphrodite/Venus. The myrtle is protective;
in several Western cultures, myrtle trees protect women from violence,
and so myrtle is considered a good ritual remedy for when one
is threatened.
Bergamot mint's calming fragrance balances the spirit, helps fight depression, and
alleviates stress, tension, and fatigue. The herb is sometimes rubbed
on
money to cause it to return to its owner--some carry a pinch in a
wallet or purse for this reason--and it goes into
spells about success.
Palmarosa is a frequent ingredient in perfume or oils to evoke
the Goddess. It is good for healing and to focus thoughts before a
ritual. Its scent helps lift spirits, relieve stress,
refresh the mind, and clarify thoughts.
Milfoil (yarrow) has often been associated with
divination. It is a good ingredient for dream pillows
and for divinatory incense and tea. Yarrow has often
been a device for divining the identity of one's future lover or
determining whether one is truly loved. In the past, yarrow was used as
a protectant of house and person against evil and hexes. We use blue yarrow here, which is a beautiful sapphire color (due to its rich chamazulene content).
Tansy is
associated with death in many cultures and thus represents the
dark side of the Goddess in this formulation. It is connected with
purification, immortality, funereal herb, good for death/rebirth, a
classic in goddess myteries. This is annual tansy, a non-toxic tansy
whose essential oil is blue, which--in addition to the yarrow--accounts for the lovely color of
this oil.
Our Herbs of Venus oil is good for works
regarding prosperity, healing (physical and emotional), friendship, and
Venus protection, which is especially effective against Mars magic
(attack). It is also good for divination, containing relaxing herbal
essences that act as doorways to the astral and that protect from
attack, and works well as a natural perfume. Top
