Persephone’s Descent Elixir

This ritually brewed offering is Gate & Garden's homage to the timeless myth of the underworld queen, Persephone. Patriarchal versions of the tale tell of a girl stolen from her home and dragged into darkness, causing the seasonal shifts as dictated by her mother's grief. But perhaps there is more...perhaps there was a woman who was unafraid, wild, and untamed. A woman who sought darkness & delight unabashed. This equinox special is an ode to wild women, transformation through darkness, and to the honoring of duality. Crafted in reverence under the thinning veil of autumn & the harvest full moon & lunar eclipse, this limited offering is a potent brew of correspondent herbs that captures the spirit of myth. Symbolic of the underworld queen herself, juicy pomegranate swirls venusian rose and ceremonial cacao. Finished with a dash of jammy molasses and poppy essence, this elixir is a spell cast for personal power & choice. Each bottle comes encased & hand sealed in blood red wax, stamped with a signature crescent moon.

Take 1-2 droppers full in meditative ritual or as desired.
