Origin & Lore

Venus is the Roman goddess of love and beauty, matched with the Greek Aphrodite, and her name was given to the brightest planet in the sky. In traditional astrology Venus rules Taurus and Libra, Friday and the metal copper. This oil is a modern planetary blend used to honour the goddess and to work in the hours and days of the planet.

Over eight years, the planet Venus meets the Sun five times at points that trace a near-perfect five-pointed star around the zodiac.

In Agrippa’s “Three Books of Occult Philosophy” (1533), Venus is given a planetary square of seven by seven, with seals for her intelligence and spirit. The Arbatel (1575) names Hagith as the Olympic spirit who governs Venusian matters, including love and beauty.
