Strawberry Moon Oil
The Strawberry Moon occurs in June, typically just before Midsummer. Named by the Ojibwe People, this full moon graces the sky at the height of strawberry season and is sometimes called the Blooming Moon or Honey Moon. In Europe, it is known as the Rose Moon. Appropriately, rose is also a Midsummer favorite and strawberry is a member of the Rosaceae (rose) family.

We were inspired to craft our Strawberry Moon Oil after finding a wonderfully luscious strawberry accord.* Its scent was so juicy and uplifting that we immediately knew we needed to create a magic oil around it. Rich and bright, this blend leads with strawberry, rose, and honey, which are layered upon a background of moist leafiness, representing the fertility of early summer. During this time of year - before the heavy heat of summer commences - the evenings and nights are still cool, but they buzz with the energetic vitality of Midsummer. Strawberry and honey come out strongly at first, then are followed by green violet-leaf and lingering rose.

In general, these scents have a very Venus slant. Strawberry plants are symbols of fertility, and the deep red, heart-shaped fruits make them perfect for love goddesses, so think love magic, engendering affection and harmony, encouraging pleasure, developing talents (a type of fertility), and cultivating abundance. However, strawberry and leaf are also Moon scents, so consider this magic oil for calming emotions or repelling Mars influences, too. It's perfect for celebrating Midsummer but its lush and sumptuous viriditas can be employed in any season.

Strawberry Moon Oil is ritually hand-blended from essential oils, absolutes, and natural isolates in a base of organic fractionated coconut oil. Like all Alchemy Works products, it is free of all synthetic ingredients. Strawberry Moon Oil contains honey. Top

* An accord is a blend of different fragrance notes that come together to create a particular scent, especially those for which it is impossible to extract essential oils (like most fruits, including raspberries and strawberries). This strawberry accord is a blend of natural isolates that have been extracted through physical means (like the distillation process used to create essential oils). It is synthetic-free.
