Aromatherapy and Astrology are interconnected with each other. Once the root cause of your problems are determined using any astrological practices, we can suggest corresponding aroma-therapeutic remedies to alleviate your problems. You can potentially integrate the benefits of aromatherapy into what you know about yourself and your loved ones.
For instance, by knowing the common traits associated with your astrological sign, you can discover some of the positive attributes as well as the challenges that you may face. With the help of essential oils, you can channelize your energies towards overcoming your physical health issues.
Aromatherapy and astrology are interconnected through the concept that both tap into energetic influences—one through celestial bodies (planets, signs, lunar phases), and the other through plant-based vibrations. Together, they aim to balance mind, body, and spirit using ancient wisdom.
Here's how they complement each other:
1. Planetary Correspondences of Essential Oils
Each planet and zodiac sign has certain traits (emotional, mental, physical), and specific essential oils resonate with those energies.
Planet | Governs | Related Essential Oils |
🌞 Sun | Vitality, ego, willpower | Frankincense, Cinnamon |
🌙 Moon | Emotions, intuition, mother energy | Jasmine, Chamomile, Sandalwood |
♂ Mars | Action, aggression, drive | Black Pepper, Ginger, Clove |
♀ Venus | Love, beauty, harmony | Rose, Geranium, Ylang Ylang |
☿ Mercury | Communication, intellect | Peppermint, Basil, Eucalyptus |
♃ Jupiter | Expansion, wisdom, abundance | Sage, Nutmeg, Myrrh |
♄ Saturn | Structure, discipline, karma | Vetiver, Cypress, Patchouli |
2. Zodiac Sign & Element Matching
Each zodiac sign (based on your sun/moon/rising) is connected to an element (fire, water, earth, air), and you can choose oils accordingly.
Fire Signs (Aries, Leo, Sagittarius): Stimulating oils like Cinnamon, Black Pepper, Clove
Earth Signs (Taurus, Virgo, Capricorn): Grounding oils like Patchouli, Vetiver, Cedarwood
Air Signs (Gemini, Libra, Aquarius): Clarifying oils like Lavender, Peppermint, Eucalyptus
Water Signs (Cancer, Scorpio, Pisces): Calming oils like Sandalwood, Ylang Ylang, Rose
3. Moon Phases + Ritual Aromatherapy
You can align oil use with lunar rituals:
New Moon: Set intentions – use Frankincense, Neroli
Full Moon: Release & recharge – use Lavender, Sage
Waxing Moon: Growth energy – use Rosemary, Basil
Waning Moon: Detox & closure – use Eucalyptus, Patchouli
4. Chakra & Planet Linkages via Aroma
Many combine chakra balancing with astrology using oils.
For example:
Heart Chakra (love) = Venus = Rose oil
Throat Chakra (expression) = Mercury = Peppermint oil
5. Personalized Aromatherapy Blends
Using a person’s natal chart, one can create custom oil blends:
Balance planetary afflictions (e.g., a weak Moon = calming oils)
Enhance positive traits (e.g., strong Mars = energizing blend for confidence)
Ritual baths, diffusers, roll-ons for emotional and spiritual healing
Summary
Aromatherapy grounds and amplifies astrological energies. When used intentionally—with awareness of planetary movements, transits, or personal charts—it becomes a powerful holistic tool for transformation and emotional alignment.
