Saturn Oil

 “Revolution is like Saturn, it devours its own children.”
-Georg Buchner

The 7th luminary of the firmament, Saturn is the last of the classical planets. 

Saturn has been known through history as the planet of discipline, responsibility, death, shadow, and boundaries. Saturn’s voice is a quiet one, but when you listen to it, everything flows.

Saturn teaches us that true power comes not from avoiding challenges but from confronting them with discipline and resolve. This oil is your guide through life’s darker, shadowy aspects, helping you harness their lessons and emerge stronger. Use it to set boundaries, bring structure to chaos, and embrace the transformation that only comes through discipline and introspection.

Whether you're working through shadow work, breaking bad habits, or manifesting your goals on the physical plane, Saturn Oil helps you navigate the challenges with grounded energy and unwavering focus. It’s the perfect companion for protection and binding magic, connecting to Saturn’s guiding wisdom during rituals and navigating your Saturn Return with clarity and grace.

The Orphic Hymn to Saturn:
ETHERIAL father, mighty Titan, hear,
Great fire of Gods and men, whom all revere:
Endu'd with various council, pure and strong,
To whom perfection and decrease belong.
Consum'd by thee all forms that hourly die,
By thee restor'd, their former place supply;
The world immense in everlasting chains,
Strong and ineffable thy pow'r contains
Father of vast eternity, divine,
O mighty Saturn, various speech is thine:
Blossom of earth and of the starry skies,
Husband of Rhea, and Prometheus wife.
Obstetric Nature, venerable root,
From which the various forms of being shoot;
No parts peculiar can thy pow'r enclose,
Diffus'd thro' all, from which the world arose,
O, best of beings, of a subtle mind,
Propitious hear to holy pray'rs inclin'd;
The sacred rites benevolent attend,
And grant a blameless life, a blessed end.
