Initiatics
Every Spagyric Consumable Talisman from Zep Tepi Solutions is the result of an intensive four-year process, distilling the essences of herbs through successive cycles to gather the concentrated celestial energies, archetypal forces, and divine emanations of the Sephirot of the Kabbalistic Tree of Life.
Through repeated cycles of distillation, cohobation, and maceration, each planetary archetype is impressed deeply into the finished talisman. This collection also holds preparations drawn from the mineral and metallic kingdoms, and from single plants of particular virtue.
Initiatics FAQs
Initiatics are Spagyric solutions made for inner work: ritual, meditation, and the deliberate cultivation of a specific energy or state. The name points to their purpose. An initiation is a threshold, a crossing from one state of being into a higher and more evolved one. Each Initiatic is made to carry you across that threshold and deeper into the evolution of your own soul.
Some carry the signature of a planetary sphere; others carry the concentrated virtue of a plant, stone, or metal. All are made to be taken into the spiritual body as active partners in the Work.
A talisman is traditionally an object charged with a specific power and then carried, worn, or ritually consumed by fire. A Consumable Talisman is charged in the same way, then taken into the body itself, drawn directly into your physical, astral, and spiritual being rather than kept at arm’s length.
Each is a Spagyric essence created through a four-year process to hold the concentrated signature of a planetary sphere so that its power may be received from within.
I can’t offer medical or personalized advice, but I can share how I work with them myself. I take a few drops under the tongue or in a small amount of water at sunrise on the planet’s corresponding day.
In the old tradition, each day is ruled by a planet, and the hour of sunrise on that day is the planet’s own hour, the moment when its energy is most concentrated. To take its talisman at that time is to draw the planetary current into all your bodies—physical, astral, mental, and causal—at its point of greatest strength. This is sympathetic Magic: like calling to like.
The planetary days are:
Sunday for the Sun
Monday for the Moon
Tuesday for Mars
Wednesday for Mercury
Thursday for Jupiter
Friday for Venus
Saturday for Saturn
Beyond the day itself, I also reach for a particular sphere when I feel its energy is imbalanced within me, working with the planet whose current restores that balance. This is the older way of working with these tools: the deliberate use of one Signature to answer another.
Most Spagyric tinctures from Zep Tepi Solutions keep virtually forever and, like a fine wine, tend to deepen and improve with age. A few preparations made with high-water-content or fresh material, such as the Fresh Cilantro Spagyric Tincture and the Elderberry Spagyric Syrup, are best enjoyed within a reasonable window rather than kept indefinitely, though they still keep for a good long while. Store any preparation cool, dark, and sealed and it will keep beautifully. Every Zep Tepi solution is bottled in Miron violet glass, which blocks the visible light that degrades botanical compounds while letting through only the highest violet frequencies, preserving and even enhancing the vitality of the preparation.
