    Before Beth got Crazy Busy, she told me she was exploring this theory that a person's moon sign has a lot to do with the scents they like.

     

    Due to this comment, I ordered Sagittarius. my moon sign, Libra (my sun sign), Virgo (my rising sign), as well as Venus, Jupiter and Mercury (I think those are the correct planets). Anyway, I think her theory may be pretty true, cuz I LOVE Sagittarius as much as I like Libra and Venus!!! Also, Sagittarius is a bit spicy and deep, but light enough to wear in the warmer weather which is perfect for me. Since I'm so much like my astrolgoical and planetary scents, I want to explore the Tarots next. Ouch to the wallet again.

    Well, as I am an Aquarius Sun, Libra Rising person (try www.astro.com to find your moon sign and all the other ones...) it'd be interesting to see if we have similar tastes.

     

    I'd say...definitely go for The Star, and try Venus, Libra's ruling planet and the Raven. 

     

    Definitely try air-themed scents.  I've never tried Aquarius itself.

     

    I find I can't do too heavy scents or they sour on me.  Florals, spicy, light, sparkly, kind of the pretty aesthetic of Libra with the slightly screwball oddity of Aquarius is my style.

    How do you know what Tarot card relates to your astrological info?

     

    I second the Venus suggestion.........it's gorgeous. I am a sun in Libra, Virgo rising and Sagittarius moon. I just ordered 5 mls of Venus, Virgo, Sagittarius, Jupiter and Mercury after trying the imps. I LOVE Venus. It is very goddess like!

    Good luck Beth. I think it's time the goodness of the universe starts coming your way! I hope all goes well with the accountant and I'm REALLY looking foward to the update. It looks like this one will be even more unique than usual!

     

    Hang in there!!!

    Does that mean that we can order them on May 1st, but just not get them for 2 weeks? I wish there was something I could do to help with the money. I have a little chunk saved for the update and would be more than happy to front you the money..........but I doubt a few hundred would help. I dunno..........just wish there was something I could do to help you Beth!!! You're the greatest. We all love ya!

    I know of a company who makes a Chai tea scent. It's called Ceylon. I don't want to post the name of the company on here, cuz I don't think it would be right, but if you really want to know, you can PM me. I can't think any of Beth's to recommend. However, I use Lush's Chai shower gel and I love it. It's a love or hate scent though. It's great for sore muscles after a hard workout!!

    I just got a sample of this and tested it on my wrist and loved it. I immediately ordered, but I must say, You can't really get the entire effect until you wear it. I think I may have put a little too much on (I can smell it wafting up - and that is unusual given I am usually cold). This reminds me sooooo much of Snake Oil and a little of O. If you sniff this from the bottle, it is nothing extraordinary, but the magic happens when it interacts with your body chemistry..........just like snake oil on me, this morphs into a golden aura of vanilla sugared dreams!!! It is sweet and I like that. I can't really detect anything other than the amber and vanilla, but then my nose is not really familiar with the other notes. It is a perfectly blended scent. I can't believe this states it is a man scent. What is it with me and men's blends. I love all of them. I'm starting to get a bit of a complex, as I'm a Libra and love "girly" scents also. I happen to love Libra and Venus! Maybe it's my rising sign, Virgo that makes me love all of the deep, woody, masculine scents. I wouldn't consider myself masculine and I don't think I smell masculine wearing this at all!!

    Big Hug!!! We all love you Beth. I'm sorry that I'm obessed and addicted to your wonderful concoctions. I will wait as long as I have to!! I just get a little concerned when CC-Now states shipped and no package arrives......baffles me.

     

    I hope you can cut your hours at the theater and get some proper help soon. Please try to take care and hang in there!!!! We love you and REALLY appreciate all of your hard work and effort more than words can say!!!!!

    Okay everyone....for those of you who frequent the board, you know I've been slacking in my review writing phase. I know, smack me up side the head!!! I have over 80 bottles of this stuff...the least I could do is reveiw them. In my defense, I recently got a new job after collecting unemployment for 5 months and let's just say....quite an adjusment!!!

     

    Now to get to the point. Venus rocked my socks off (Beth - can you say GALLON size). I am a Libra, Moon in Sagittarius and Virgo rising (born 10/7). I was totally blown away by Venus. I immediately ordered it. I am wearing my sample this morning and I tell ya....I must be a TRUE Venus child. I'm lovin' the hell out of this shit. I immediately was surrounded with a gorgeous cloud of beautifullness!!! It prompted me to proceed to pick out my diamond necklace (which I never wear) and do my eyes are smoky bluish/purple with pink lips and cheeks. Makes me feel sexy (which is rare with my low self esteem). I guess this is a good way to feel since I have to give my deposition today in my car accident personal injury case!!!

     

    Anyway, the others have described it perfectly.....but to me, it is more flowing, pink and aquatic......but then it is pink, pink, pink with green undertone. I'm REALLY loving this which surprised me a bit since I tend to usually go for the deeper resin scents and sandalwood/patchouli. It is 70 degrees here today, so it prompted me to wear this. I must say....it is by no means a weak fragrance and that is a GOOD thing. This goes right up there with Harlot and Bordello for me. One of my new top fav's!!!! Beth, you rock girl!!!

    Good Gods!!! My computer has decided to act up and I have been unable to log on. I was up for hours last night with my IPS so I could get online to read about the new oils. I'm about to have a coronary here.

     

    The new oils sound really different and yummy. I can't wait for the update. My computer better behave now.

     

    Questions for Beth - Is the price of the 10 ml bottle going up also?? How many ounces are in a 5 ml and how many in a 10 ml? I have always wondered.
