Groups of signs in astrology share certain characteristics that are classified according to four earthly elements – fire, air, water and earth. It helps explain why some signs are more compatible than others.
Our new collection Illustrious Elements is inspired by these elements and uses our clever aromachology to blend essential oils to enhance your spiritual and mental wellbeing. Check out the all Elements scents here
Fire Element -The Firestarters
The Fire signs are Aries (March 21 to April 19), Leo (July 23 to August 22) and Sagittarius (November 22 – December 21). Fire people are leaders, dynamic. They light up everything around them. Because Fire needs Air to exist, Fire signs are most compatible with the Air signs. Water is anathema to Fire and a Water person could try to dampen the dynamism and enthusiasm that defines Fire.
Our woody Fire Scent can help drive the positive qualities of this element with our essential oils such as:
Cedarwood – A mood enhancing oil known for promoting mental clarity, physical relaxation and is helpful for prayer and meditation.
Petitgrain – A clarifying scent which refreshes the senses, soothes anxiety and promotes higher levels of consciousness
Pimento – A warm and spicy oil, known for its aphrodisiac properties as well as offering protection and boosting your courage.
You can also get this scent along with the other fire signs in the Fire Element Box gift set.
Air Element – The Dreamers
The Air signs are Aquarius (January 20 to February 18), Gemini (May 21 to June 21) and Libra (September 23 – October 22). These are the idea signs, the air that breathes a spark into a flame. They can’t be tied down. They require freedom of movement and thought.
Our dreamy Air scent contains aromachology essential oils such as
Frankincense – An uplifting traditional oil which can help reduce feelings of anxiety and commonly used in meditation practice.
Lavender– A calming, balancing oil which is commonly associated with the third chakra and a symbol for serenity and luxury.
Majoram – An excellent warming and relaxing oil which is considered a lucky scent and bringer of joy.
Our Air Element Box is great for light and refreshing scents, spaces and people!
Water Element – The Empaths
The Water signs of Cancer (June 22 to July22), Scorpio (October 23 to November 21) and Pisces (February 19 to March 20) are characterised by the phrase still waters run deep. They’re emotional and sensitive, given to deep thoughts and conversations. Just as water can blur an image or hide secrets within its depths, so do Water signs have secretive emotions and abilities. The Water signs are most compatible with Earth signs.
Our refreshing Water scent is available as a candle or diffuser as always. This aromachology blend includes pure essential oils such as:
Peppermint – A fresh, invigorating oil known for improving mental function as well as relieving mental fatigue. Peppermint is also great for the throat chakra and for healing and purification.
Rosemary – an immunity boosting oil that relieves stress, boosts brain function and helps with meditation.
Ylang Ylang – a flower famous for its aphrodisiac qualities and reenergising and mood boosting qualities. Ylang Ylang is also great for shifting negative energy.
The Water Element Box combines the element scent as well as the other watery zodiac signs.
Earth Element – The Groundbreakers
The Earth signs are Taurus (April 20 – May 20), Virgo (August 23 to September 22) and Capricorn (December 22 to January 19). They are stable and consistent. While not as compassionate as the water signs, they are nonetheless nurturing. They can be rigid (stick in the mud) and easily stuck in routines. They are most compatible with Water signs, as Water is necessary for the Earth to properly nurture growing things. Earth helps Water contain itself, which is often necessary for survival on the planet.
The Earth scent aromachology blend includes pure essential oils such as:
Cinnamon – A warming earthy oil that can help reduce depression and anxiety. Also great for cleansing and focusing the mind on intention.
Mandarin – A nerve busting oil that is great for positive energy and getting in touch with your inner child
Vetiver – A grounding oil which is great for stress relief and enhancing your dreams.
