Siren Summer: Silk, Scent & Self-Devotion
Welcome back to the Aurora Sage Journal. A space where beauty becomes ceremony, and everyday moments are dressed in silk and intention.
Rituals, for me, are touchstones for my intentions. And intentions, when tended to with devotion, are incredibly powerful. They shape the way I move, what I magnetize, and how I meet the world.
As the days stretch long and golden, I’m leaning into what I’m calling Siren Summer - a season of softness, sensuality, and magnetic self devotion. Below, you’ll find the rituals, potions, obsessions, and offerings currently weaving their way through my days.
This post is part ritual guide, part love letter.
If you’d like even deeper, more intimate entries (including subscriber-only rituals, Q&As, and early access to offerings), you can join the Aurora Sage newsletter and step inside the inner circle.

✧ Venusian Ritual: Honey Skin Spell 🍯
For softness, radiance, and receiving.
Scrub away what you’ve outgrown.
Call in the sweet, the soft, the sacred.
This is my go-to homemade body scrub, a golden blend that leaves your skin glowing and your energy magnetic. Honey, sugar, and cinnamon aren’t just ingredients - they’re attractors, drawing in sweetness, abundance, and desire.
Stephanie’s Summer Honey Scrub
• 1 part raw honey
• 1 part organic coconut oil
• 1 part sugar
• A sprinkle of ground cinnamon
Mix until smooth. Use in the shower on damp skin, scrubbing gently in upward strokes. As you polish your body, speak words of affirmation:
“I allow myself to receive sweetness.
I am radiant, magnetic, open.
Prosperity flows to me like golden nectar.”
Rinse. Pat dry. Then anoint your skin with oil and scent.
I rotate between Szia Vanilla (for warmth and seduction) and OSEA (for soft, clean sensuality). Then I seal it with my Aurora Sage rollerball perfume that at pulse points.
Step into your day glowing, scented, and spellbound.

✧ Ritual Rx 💊
Remedies for beauty, mood & soft sacred living
Sometimes self-care isn’t about doing more, it’s about easing into the moment. One of my favorite current tools: Mood Chews — a natural blend with GABA + L-Theanine that brings me back to that magnetic state of calm femininity.
A nervous system in ease is a woman in her power.
I shared my full experience with Mood Chews, including how I use them for LA traffic, baths, and before dates, in the newsletter.

✧ From My Altar 🔥
Sacred Smoke & Rituals
This summer, my altar smells like gold, resin, and ancient sweetness. I’ve been burning this trio:
• Honey amber resin – for sensuality and desire
• Benzoin resin – for lightness and purification
• Sweet myrrh resin – for grounding and emotional alchemy
Together, they create a soft, sacred veil that shifts the energy of any space. I light them during Venus rituals, meditation, or moments when I want to amplify love, luxury, and luminosity.
As the smoke rises, I speak my intentions.

✧ Nourishment 🌹
The Adaptogenic Rose Cacao Beauty Smoothie
My kitchen counter is its own little apothecary — powders, petals, potions. Every morning, I blend something nourishing and enchanted.
Lately, this velvet elixir has been my go-to: earthy, floral, chocolatey, and rich in hormone-balancing adaptogens.
Rose Cacao Beauty Smoothie
• 1 scoop chocolate protein
• 1 tbsp raw cacao
• 1 tbsp maca
• 1 tbsp ground rose petals
• 1 tbsp spirulina
• 1 tbsp hemp seeds
• Coconut water or milk of choice
• A handful of ice
Optional additions:
• ¼ tsp pearl powder (for glow)
• ¼ tsp pine pollen (for vitality)
Affirmation: “I am nourished, radiant, magnetic. I glow from within.”

New plant-dyed silk pillowcases will be added throughout the summer so keep a lookout! Scrunchies in Solar Bloom, and a limited run of silk sets and velvets — now available in the shop.

✧ Playlist: Siren Summer 🎶
The soundtrack for your magnetic glow-up.
Soft, sensual, sunlit… made for beauty rituals, long stretches of golden hour, and soaking in the pool like a sea goddess.
(best paired with body oil, sunglasses, and a secret)

✧ Parting Words
Let your rituals be romantic.
Let your beauty be your spell.
Until next time…
With petal-stained fingertips and scented wrists,
XO Stephanie
