Brand Tone

Accessible, modern, and reassuring; conversational and playful; empowering and insightful; human and authentic.

Brand Values

• •Accessibility
• •Human Connection
• •Self-Exploration and Clarity
• •Stewardship and Impact (Fragrance Line)

Best Practices

• •Balance the Mystical with the Modern: Use contemporary, relatable language to explain complex astrological concepts. Avoid overly dense or cryptic jargon. The goal is to make spirituality feel like a natural part of a modern lifestyle.
• •Lead with Empathy and Reassurance: Acknowledge the user's potential feelings of uncertainty or anxiety. Frame the brand's services as a supportive tool for navigating life's challenges, not as a source of definitive or scary predictions.
• •Maintain a Conversational, Text-Like Flow: Use short sentences, questions, and emojis to create a friendly and interactive tone, especially in app notifications and social media captions. This reinforces the feeling of "chatting with a friend."
• •Clearly Differentiate Free vs. Paid Offerings: Be transparent about what users get for free (daily horoscopes, chart info) versus what is a premium feature (live readings). Frame the paid services as an accessible upgrade for deeper, personalized insight to avoid the perception of being a "read this, now buy that" funnel.
• •Unify the Two Brand Pillars: Create a cohesive narrative that links the digital, mystical self-care of the app with the physical, environmental care of the fragrance line. Use shared language around concepts like "sanctuary," "well-being," and "positive impact" to show they are two sides of the same thoughtful, modern brand.

Social Perception

Largely positive, users praise its user-friendly interface, minimalistic look, and easy-to-understand explanations of astrological concepts. Access to live, human readers is a major draw, seen as insightful and comforting, and considered a trusted resource. Critiques include paid readings sometimes feeling generic, a perceived lean towards "lifestyle marketing" pushing upgrades (likened to "Uber for astrology"), and functional disparities between Android and iOS apps.
