The anointing oil for the lesser malefic, evoked for defense, action, sexual charms and victory in combat. Mars, the Roman god of war did not always have this primary association. It is believed by scholars that his persona evolved out of an agricultural Etruscan god Maris, who found a place in the pantheon. Maris and Mars were originally venerated for life giving powers. Spring and the new growth of plants were their concern, and they were called upon for hope and success. Informed by history and the Spring Equinox, this fragrant charm is quite green, allowing its difficult energy to be embraced from a new perspective. This is meant to help all those remediating their Mars, but also for anyone who needs help understanding it from a more gentle approach. This scent was crafted with:

⚘ Warming ginger root, a rubifacient which gently stirs the blood to action
⚘ Ancient evergreen spikes for protection, and evoking the interpretatio romana of Mars in the Norse god of justice Tyr, whose association with sacred trees is used in defensive bind rune inscriptions from the Bronze Age.
⚘ Stinging black and pink pepper, aligned to Scorpio and Aries, respectively
⚘ Nettle essential oil, which is sacred to vernal Aries but also useful energy for Libra, which rules the kidneys and balance.
⚘ Gerard’s herbal states that β€œπ”±π”₯𝔒𝔢 𝔴π”₯𝔬 π”žπ”―π”’ 𝔰𝔱𝔲𝔫𝔀 𝔬𝔣 𝔱π”₯𝔒 𝔰𝔠𝔬𝔯𝔭𝔦𝔬𝔫 π”žπ”«π”‘ π”₯π”žπ”³π”’ π”’π”žπ”±π”’π”« 𝔬𝔣 𝔦𝔱, 𝔰π”₯π”žπ”©π”© 𝔣𝔒𝔒𝔩 𝔫𝔬 π”­π”žπ”¦π”« π”žπ”± π”žπ”©π”©β€, when referring to basil, and Culpeper believed that its venom drew β€œlike to like”, believing it would attract Scorpions. For this reason, and the fact that the energy of tulsi (holy basil) transmutes stagnant energy, particularly in the Scorpio ruled groin, this duo is included within.
⚘ Myrrh, to bring elemental balance in the style of classical fiery formulas
