Emporiblog - Aquarius Season

-
Hello all!! Once again, I'd like to apologise for all Aquarians for being late!! Astrology is NOT my strong point but I'm here now and it's the dawning of the age of Aquarius (I'm sorry, I couldn't resist!).



Aquarians are born between the 20th of January and the 18th of February, are one of 3 Air (🤔) signs. The ruling planet of Aquarius is Uranus or Saturn, depending on if you follow traditional or modern Astrology. 

Apart from the classical water depiction 👉🏻 ♒, Aquarius is also depicted with a human water bearer at times. It is said that this water bearer is Ganymede, the son of King Tros of Troy (depending on which myth you believe!). Ganymede became the water bearer because Zeus saw him tending to his father's flocks on Mt Ida and became infatuated with him. Zeus then changed form to a giant bird, swooped down and carried Ganymede away. Since then, Ganymede has been a cup bearer to the gods. 


There are currently 2 planets in retrograde at the moment, Mercury and Venus, but both will end before Aquarius Season does.




Crystals

Here are some Crystals to work with during Aquarius Season:

- Moonstone
- Amethyst
- Aquamarine
- Turquoise
- Jade
- Garnet
- Labradorite
- Hematite
- Emerald
- Celestite
- Moldavite


If you're drawn to any other Crystals during this time, use those too!!


As far as incense goes, Aquarians are known for being progressive, rebellious, innovative and humanitarians so, I would use incense that keep you grounded to keep your rebellion in check and ones that encourage new ideas and creativity.





Herbs

Below are some herb suggestions to incorporate into Aquarius Season:

- Violet
- Rosemary
- Fennel
- Valerian
- Comfrey
- Peppermint
- Lady's Slipper




Flowers

Here are some flowers for Aquarius Season:

- Gladiolus
- Goldenrod
- Jack-in-the-pulpit
- Orchids
- Birds of paradise
- Snowdrop
- Violets




We have posts on which plants/essential oils are poisonous and/or otherwise harmful to common household pets in our safety section!


I hope you've enjoyed this post!! Sorry for being late again!


Blessings,

Ancestral Work (part 1 )

 Ancestral Communication and Work. Hi Guys, It's me again, as this is work that I have been actively doing, and Cat and I agreed that I would do this post for you. It seems to fit in well with the season. We have discussed this subject briefly in some other posts, such as Vivianite  (just use the search function and input ancestors or spirit work, and you will find the posts to read whichever ones shout at you, as there are too many mentions to put them in here). We discussed communication with spirits in a previous post but this is a lot more specific as it deals with our own flesh and blood. I do have a qualification in Ancestral Healing, so this is a precursor to any more in-depth posts that we may do in the future if you want them. The pic above is one I took recently when I felt the call to tend to the graves of my nan, and her mum, whose headstone is pictured above. As with a lot of practices, you can be as elaborate or as basic as you need.       ...
