TRUST [ the empress ] — hand-poured tarot balm infused with rose and red jasper

$23.00
Make space for the meaningful with applied arcana’s tarot balms.

Designed to help us center ourselves amidst the mundane distractions of modern life, these all-natural herbal products are handmade according to traditional methods yet offer a new kind of full-spectrum personal care for -all- of us: body, mind, and spirit.

Each of the twenty-two balms in the tarot balm series has been linked with a single card of the tarot’s major arcana, labeled with a word that evokes the deepest boon or blessing of that card, and paired with both a plant and a mineral ally that can help us engage with the medicine of each card with greater intention and energetic support.

They are my effort to make the magic of the tarot more tangible, the medicine of the tarot more accessible, and the message of the tarot easier to take to heart—an intentional and intuitive topical tool for all who are called to the tarot’s healing and space-holding capacity, whether or not you’re an “expert” at reading the cards or have memorized what they represent.

They are my absolute pride and joy, and I pour every single one with the hope that it finds its way into the hands of someone who will truly love it.

[ make space for TRUST ]

The empress asks us to remember that trust is something we can cultivate.

This balm has been crafted with rose petals and rose hips—representing the full cycle of the rose from beauty to bounty—and infused with the grounding presence of red jasper. They work together to remind you to reach deep into your own root system in order to avail yourself of all the abundance and love that is available to you.

The natural scent of the rose-infused oil has been enhanced with rose absolute and underlaid by oak moss, palmarosa, and tulsi. There is little sweetness in this blend, just the heady beauty of rose tempered by the soil that sustains it and the barest suggestion of spice.

[ ingredients ]

organic olive oil infused with rose petals and rose hips, jojoba oil, beeswax, essential oils (palmarosa, tulsi, rose absolute, oak moss absolute), magic & love

[ how to use ]

These balms can be applied externally anywhere you would use lotion. They will provide the same protection and skin-softening benefits as any moisturizer, particularly when used to care for cracked or calloused skin.

They can also be used intentionally, to assist you in embodying something new. To explore the balm in this fashion, you can use it however feels right to you. If you’re not sure, or if you’d like some suggestions, I include a brief guided practice with each balm you purchase, perfect for trying out yourself or offering as a supportive gift to a friend.

If you’d really like to go deep with this work, check out my listing for the spiritual self-care package. It comes with instructions for a more involved experiential practice that can help you get in touch with the energy of the card itself through a guided exploration of the balm you need most.

[ questions, quandaries & other fine print ]

This is a product that is handcrafted from natural ingredients that vary in appearance, consistency, and potency. Use with care. You will not receive the exact balm pictured in the listing. Some variation in texture on the freshly poured balms is natural and should disappear with use. Twist to open.

Due to the nature of this product, I’m not able to accept returns. That being said, if you receive something that seems strange or incorrect, get in touch and I’ll do my best to make it right.

This product will melt in the sun, so make sure you check your mailbox promptly on those warm summer days! If your balm does melt, it should reconstitute at exactly the same texture…it just won’t be as pretty. :)
