Zodiac symbols have been used for centuries all around the world - for many different reasons. In Astral Herbology we are focusing on it as the ancient alchemical symbol and connecting it to this season’s requirements for health and wellbeing.

Leo the Lion is a common symbol for leadership, royalty, and those with a strong life force and healthy ego. “I WILL” is its mission and fire is its element. It is during the peak of summer when the sun is hot and the air is dry. It is also our most physically active season for our bodies and for nature. This tea combines herbs that are great for the heart, circulation, and those with a firey temperament. It can also be brewed cold to help with water absorption and the cooling of tissues.

The flower essence combines Arnica, Calendula, and Sunflower. It can help with the wounded ego, a contentious relationship with the masculine, and reminds us that our light is radiant and bright.

The essential oil is a blend of lemon, ginger and rosemary. A refreshing summer scent with a punch of heat.

The Cancer collection. **This is not about the disease or horoscope.** Instead we are focusing on Cancer as the ancient alchemical symbol of the Crab and connecting it to this season’s requirements for health and wellbeing.

The flower essence blend is Bleeding Heart, Chamomile, and Gaillardia. Great for those tender people who need gentle, safe spaces to heal and process their feelings.

The essential oil combines Clary Sage, Spearmint, Bergamot, and Chamomile. Perfect for a rainy day or enjoying the longest days of the year.

The Bakuchiol Tremella Glow Serum is a plant-based powerhouse designed to help you glow from the inside out. Infused with skin-loving botanicals and nature’s most effective active ingredients, this serum supports radiant, balanced skin—without compromise.

Bakuchiol is a gentle, plant-based alternative to retinol. It helps to smooth fine lines, fade the appearance of dark spots, and boost collagen—without the irritation or sun sensitivity associated with traditional retinol.

Tremella mushroom extract, often called “nature’s hyaluronic acid,” draws moisture deep into the skin and holds it there. It delivers a soft, plumping effect and a dewy glow, especially when applied to damp skin.

Together, these ingredients create a silky, featherlight serum that absorbs effortlessly and leaves your skin visibly more radiant and deeply nourished.
