Archive: A Treasure of Copper

[luna65]

Perhaps the oldest metal in recorded history, copper is known for its balancing properties of male and female energies, embodying such qualities as love and artistic creativity. Our interpretation of this element, associated with the planet Venus, is a symbolic combination of resilient strength which is also highly malleable. The femininity of golden fleshy fruits: peach, mango, papaya, apricot and pear; with a firm woody core of oak, cedar, redwood and teak. As a finishing touch our potion glows with cosmetic grade swirling copper mica.

 

PEACH ~ Love. Promotes fertility, happiness, and abundance. A symbol of marriage. Longevity, wishes granted.

MANGO ~ Increases male libido, spiritually elevating.

PAPAYA ~ Love, protection. Health of body and mind, clarity. Magnification of devotion.

PEAR ~ Love, lust, passion, longevity and luck.

APRICOT ~ Love, love, love! Romance, passion, femininity.

REDWOOD ~ Protection, love, success, power.

A Treasure Of collection, January 2012

 

The sea is perhaps the oldest mystery of all…and those who are drawn to its length and breadth and depth are forever in her thrall.

For years many travelers, explorers, sailors and pirates have journeyed around the globe, from the icy depths of the North Atlantic to the shimmering warmth of the Southern ocean, to the vast blue wilderness of the Pacific…the sea claimed many of those who had traveled her, and kept their treasurers for herself. And so in their wake came the curious and the adventurous who sought to uncover these treasures, to plot and plan and hope and wish upon the brightest stars in the sky that what they found could rival their shine.

A famed treasure is said to lie within the Java Trench, off the coast of Sumatra, a fabulous hoard of jewels and coins and other items of arcane significance, the booty of the crew of the pirate ship Cataluna. They had cut a swath through the world, traveling both land and sea to find dazzling prizes and experience their pleasure and their power. But it was said the sea was so envious of their cache that she sent a monstrous kraken to capsize the ship and keep the riches from human sight forever.

And so in honor of this famed legend we bring you a scented tribute to the most extravagant and coveted collection of baubles …a true treasure in scent and intent, an embodiment of symbolism both of their exquisite shades and of the powers of the gems and precious metals as each potion shimmers and shines with addition of cosmetic-grade colored mica.

 

Remember to vigorously shake each bottle or vial to reawaken the magic within!
