1. What are the planetary correspondences for Rose?
Rose is intrinsically linked to the planet Venus and the element of Water. It is primarily utilized in rituals surrounding love, emotional healing, deep protection, and honoring the divine feminine.
2. Why doesn't this smell strong like a perfume?
To be clear, this is a vibrationally pure anointing oil, not a commercial fragrance or perfume oil. Synthetic fragrances are designed to project a strong scent across a room. Our ritual oils are formulated purely with natural essential oils and botanicals to hold a specific energetic frequency. The scent profile is intentionally subtle so it anchors your physical body and liminal focus without overwhelming your senses during deep trance or spell work.
3. How exactly should I dress a spell candle?
The direction you rub the oil matters. If you are drawing something toward you (like love or luck), rub the oil from the top of the candle down to the middle, and then from the base up to the middle. If you are banishing or releasing, rub from the middle outward toward the ends.
4. Can I use this oil to anoint my tarot cards?
Yes, but with care. Because oil will stain and warp paper, never apply it directly to the faces of tarot cards. Instead, roll a tiny amount of oil onto your fingertips, rub them together until mostly absorbed, and lightly tap the outer edges of the deck or the box they are stored in.
5. Can I use this oil on my skin?
Yes, this oil is safely diluted in a premium, skin-safe Jojoba carrier oil specifically for topical pulse-point anointing. Dab a small amount on your wrists or behind your ears to act as a personal scent amulet. However, it is formulated as a ritual tool, not a cosmetic, and we always recommend doing a small patch test first.
6. What deities correspond well with this blend?
Because of its heavy Venusian and Water alignment, it serves beautifully as an offering for Hathor, Isis, Adonis, Eros, Demeter, and Harpocrates.
