Candles are a traditional element of several rituals. They are often placed on altars along with flowers, incense, food, drink, and other spiritual imagery. They can be lit near statues and shrines as a mark of respect. They can also be used during meditation with many key benefits. Today, there are numerous options available for home use to help enhance your  practice.

The burning of candles for spiritual purposes is a practice that dates back to ancient times. For as long as there have been candles, there were people who believed that a lit candle can connect the physical world with the spiritual realm. To these people, fire and flame are representations of the spark of creation. To light a candle is to illuminate the self.

Black Candles

The burning of a black candle is serious business. This is done when one wants to neutralize negative energies. The color black offers protection from illness, evil and the negative energy cast upon you from outside forces. The black candle is also burned to harness the healing energy of the universe.

A balanced, natural scent candle can do wonders for your mood, bringing back joyful memories or awakening a sense of calm in the mind. There are numerous studies that demonstrate the power of smell in evoking emotions and memories.

These candles require a special candle holder, or a glass filled with sand or salt, as they are extra thin.

100% Pure Beeswax Candle with cotton wick. Burns with a clean flame and gives off a natural warm honey scent. When burnt, beeswax releases negative ions, which helps to remove toxins from the air. Perfect for allergy or asthma sufferers.

The 100% Beeswax Candle is the greenest candle you can burn – eco-friendly, healthy and sustainable, powered by the magical properties of beeswax.  A natural and renewable resource, our beeswax is loaded with amazing health benefits – antibacterial, antifungal, antimicrobial, non-toxic, naturally aromatic and even edible.  Free from paraffin, synthetic fragrance oils, toxic chemicals, GMO soy, parabens and phthalates, our beeswax candle burns cleanly, and is even said to aid wellbeing by purifying the air.

IT BURNS DIFFERENTLY TO OTHER CANDLES

The 100% Beeswax Candle burns powerfully for the first few minutes, as the wax powers through the wick.  When using the first time (and each time after that), we recommend that you burn for 4 hours, so that the wax (almost) reaches the edge of the jar, this prevents tunnelling and makes the candle last longer.  Never burn the candle for short periods of time, 2 hours or less – this can also cause tunnelling, as there is not enough time for the wax pool to melt to the edge of the jar, as beeswax is a hard wax.  It may take 2 or 3, 4 hour burns for the wax to melt right to the edges of the jar.  This is because beeswax is a hard wax that burns slowly, and also longer than other candle waxes.

Always trim the wick to 5mm before lighting the candle – This removes carbon from the end of the wick and means the flame will be larger.  This in turn helps the flame burn bigger and brighter, and will help the wax burn all the way to the edge of the jar, which prevents tunnelling.   Always ensure the wick is upright – If the wick leans to one side, the melt pool will be uneven.

Please remember that beeswax candles burn differently to all other wax candles. Beeswax has a different composition depending on the flowers the bees have pollinated. This means every candle will burn differently and will have quirks and imperfections.  The wax may crack in between burns and it may burn unevenly. Beeswax will not melt like soy wax or paraffin wax candles – it will have its own way of burning, this is part of the charm of beeswax candles and we love its imperfections.  If you want a candle to behave in a uniform way and be “perfect”, beeswax candles may not be for you.
