Aromatic Astrology

Gemini

Sometimes change can feel a little daunting – right, Gemini? Like you’re standing at the foot of a mountain being expected to climb it, when you’d rather be lying on the sofa surrounded by Pomegranate Noir Home Candles. Mercury, the ruler of your horoscope, has other ideas mid-month, signalling an evolution. We can help with this. If you're traditionally someone who favours the brightness of citrus fragrances, might we suggest something different. A blend that's both floral and fruity perhaps, such as English Pear & Freesia Cologne? Who knows what new sides of yourself will be revealed? The Sun enters your money house on the 21st, followed shortly by Venus, so now is the time to reward yourself for all your courage and start dipping your toe in the sea of change. Strap yourself in. It’s going to be thrilling.

Cancer

If you’re feeling strangely inquisitive this month, Cancer, you have an eclipse in your spiritual 12th house to thank for it. We suggest travel. Somewhere hot and unexpected, where fig trees grow in dappled sunlight.

Leo

With planetary power in the Eastern sector of your chart, Leo, it’s time to trust your instincts. You’re as determined as a bluebell burrowing its way up through the frozen earth of winter and frankly, you’re unstoppable, so match your scent to your mood with a spritz of Wild Bluebell Cologne.

Virgo

Mars and Pluto are in cahoots in your sign right now, Virgo, and this dynamic aspect brings caution with it. Don’t rush so much. Take your time in the mornings – may we suggest showering with a Grapefruit Body & Hand Wash?

Libra

You’re being too studious at the moment, Libra, and it must stop Summer is here: there are strawberries, there are roses, there is croquet. We’ve consulted the solar eclipse in your sign this month and it strongly recommends an evening spent soaking in a bath filled with Peony & Blush Suede Bath Oil to settle things down again.

Scorpio

Romance has a grip on you this month, Scorpio – all attributed to Venus, your love planet Venus moving into your 10th house. Where will your amorousness take you? A moonlit tryst by fragrant honeysuckle? Mystery dates with lavender-scented strangers? We wait with bated breath.

Sagittarius

There is activity in your family planet Neptune this month, Sagittarius, and sibling rivalries may be ignited. Hold your ground like an oak tree in a storm. Your resilience will defeat all relevant opponents.

Capricorn

What’s going on in your 6th house, Capricorn? Perhaps there are new challenges to be had at work? With talents as vast and diverse as yours, is now the time to make progress in your career? Change things up with a new scent such as Blackberry & Bay Cologne.

Aquarius

As a water sign, it’s always a good idea for you to head to the beach whenever you have questions that need answering, Aquarius. The Sun moves into Cancer this month, making you feel a little more emotional than normal – but nothing a hearty walk in the salty sea air can’t solve.

Pisces

What’s with all the drama, Pisces? It’s that solar eclipse playing havoc with Mercury – nothing to do with you. We suggest locking yourself away for long, dreamy baths with Pomegranate Noir Bath Oil until the madness dies down. If you can’t be calm, you can at least smell sensational.

Aries

Your 3rd house of communication is under the spotlight this month, Aries, which means calling on your patience more than normal. Imagine you are a freesia, light and breezy on a sun-drenched hillside – bright, fragrant and loving life. They won’t know what hit them.

Taurus

Your health is zinging like a shot of ginger this month, Taurus, and the effects are obvious. The invitations will come flooding in, but with the planets below in your horizon chart, you might want to spend some time at home with a Lime Basil & Mandarin Home Candle. Trust us, it'll pay dividends.
