Gonggong—the Chinese water deity and dwarf planet—brings waves that dissolve limits, reveal compassion, and test spiritual boundaries. In this conversation, Elizabeth Ashley (UK Director, National Association for Holistic Aromatherapy; Founder, Aromatic Mystery School) and Adam Barralet explore Gonggong planet mythology, its astrological themes (breakdown → breakthrough), and how targeted aromatherapy blends of spiritual essential oils can support clarity, protection, and stamina through spiritual awakening fatigue.We cover: Gonggong's symbolism (water, serpents/dragons, headstrong rupture → reset), echoes of Pluto/Neptune, and “choose your hard” resilience.Collective and personal themes: compassion, compassion fatigue, media overwhelm, and the rising conversation on psychological & spiritual boundaries.Practical support with aromatherapy blends for clarity and energetic containment (juniper, celery seed, myrtle) and for mental breakthrough (eucalyptus radiata, mentha arvensis/Japanese corn mint, wintergreen)—plus warm creative ignition (basil, cinnamon bark, clary sage).Aromatherapy Blends mentioned (from the talk):Boundaries & Containment (aroma pendant): 3 drops juniper, 2 drops celery seed, 1 drop myrtle.Breakthrough/Clarity (diffuser or well-diluted topical): 1 drop eucalyptus radiata (narrow-leaf peppermint gum), 1 drop mentha arvensis (Japanese peppermint/corn mint), 1 drop wintergreen.Creative “bash-through” (well-diluted topical or diffuser): 1 drop basil, 1 drop cinnamon bark, 1 drop clary sage in a tablespoon of carrier.Safety notes reflected in the talk: avoid wintergreen and cinnamon bark in pregnancy; wintergreen interacts with blood-thinning/platelet issues—use with care or choose diffusion.Why this matters now: With Gonggong moving slowly (currently in Pisces) and long retrograde windows, many report heightened emotion, porous boundaries, and spiritual awakening fatigue. Thoughtful spiritual essential oils can help you stay compassionate without drowning—and maintain clear spiritual boundaries while doing your work.Chapters 00:00 Exploring Gong Gong: The Dwarf Planet and Its Energy 02:57 Gong Gong Mythology: Understanding the Water God 05:46 Emotional Challenges and Breakthroughs 08:52 Boundaries and Compassion in the Age of Aquarius 11:47 Navigating Emotional Upheavals with Essential Oils 14:53 Creating Essential Oil Blends for Clarity and Compassion 17:42 The Role of Gong Gong in Personal and Societal Change 20:58 Astrological Insights: Understanding Gong Gong's Influence 23:55 The Power of Essential Oils in Spiritual Practices 27:06 Final Thoughts: Embracing Challenges for GrowthAbout your hosts Elizabeth Ashley — UK Director for the National Association for Holistic Aromatherapy; Founder, Aromatic Mystery School (spiritual, emotional, and energetic dimensions of plants).

Litsea cubeba, also known as pheasant pepper or mountain pepper, is a small tree native to China, Taiwan, Indonesia, Malaysia, and other parts of Southeast Asia.

Ho Leaf oil derives from the Hon Sho variety of camphor, which occurs mainly in Japan. He is distilled from the leaves and branches of the tree and thus does not smell much at all like camphor (which comes from the wood).

Pink pepper is a totally unrelated plant to the better known black pepper. This quick-growing native, at home in regions of South America, reaches about 15 metres tall, and the upper branches are unique because they tend to droop. Small white flowers gather at the ends of the branches and grow fruit with woody seeds. Pink Pepper essential oil is steam-distilled from these fruits. She still has a spicy aroma like Black Pepper, but also possesses floral and fruity notes. ABOUT ADAM BARRALET Adam Barralet has been observing and living in tune with nature since childhood.

The original habitat of the blue lotus was along the Nile river and in other parts of East Africa. However, back in ancient times, it was spread through the Indian subcontinent and Thailand due to the flower's alluring appearance and perfume. From the waters, the flower buds rise to the surface where they open to reveal her blue petals with yellow centre each morning. They close again as the Sun prepares for his evening rest. At Heliopolis, the origin of the world was taught to have been when the Sun god Ra emerged from the lotus flower growing in primordial waters. At night, he would retreat into the flower again.

Celery is found around the world in habitats that are salty and wet, or marshy soils near the coast. Ancient literature documents that celery was cultivated for medicinal purposes before 850 BC. Since antiquity, the stalks have been enjoyed as food. Whereas a stalk of celery has a faint and barely discernible scent, other parts of the plant are powerfully aromatic. Steam-distilled from the seed of this white-flowered biennial plant, Celery Seed has a sweet, earthy, herbal aroma.

When gods and goddesses still walked the Earth, Xanat, daughter of the Mexican fertility goddess and a young Totonac mortal man fell deeply in love. Due to Xanat's divine nature their relationship was forbidden and culminated in their deaths together. When their blood was spilt on the earth it transformed into the vanilla orchid that would continue to express the love, pleasure and happiness the couple shared with the world forevermore. Growing in the tropical climates of Mexico, Central America, the Caribbean, and northeastern South America is a dazzling orchid with yellow-green flowers. However, it is not the flowers that are this plant's main gift, but rather the seeds within her beans, which possess the rich, beautiful aroma of Vanilla essential oil. This is the only orchid in the world that offers us the edible vanilla bean. Unlike so many other aromatic plants that produce essential oils through steam distillation or cold-pressing, the vanilla orchid's beans do not effectively release their precious aromatic molecules when put through these processes. Rather, it is extracted using carbon dioxide or a solvent to produce what is called Vanilla Absolute.

Around 2000, while living in Austin, TX, she was led to personal “post grad” work in women's spirituality and the goddess. In 2005, after relocating to Northern California, she explored shamanism, Andean mysticism of the Q'ero, bee priestess/shamanism, alchemy, and mythos, and also received an aromatherapy certification with further study in perfumery. While the Sacred Feminine has still maintained a primary focus, the myth of Eros and Psyche and the Four Petal Flower of Teotihuacan have both significantly informed her Soul's journey.
