Woodland Magic
9 oz soy candle
Hand-poured and intention-infused, the Brigid candle (formerly Imbolc) celebrates the first fire festival of the year and honors the goddess Brigid, whose associations with milk, grain, and lambs inspire its colors and fragrances. Top notes of sweet honey and milk blend into warm almond and rest atop the scents of aged wood and moss. The fragrances of milk, honey, and almond represent what we have set aside to sustain us through winter, while the aged wood evokes Imbolc’s ritual fire and light notes of moss remind us of what is buried beneath the snow.
As the candle burns, the aroma evokes a specific kind of calm and quiet–a moment of stillness and peace that we experience in a warm place during the deep of winter: a light sleep in a dry hayloft as snow falls gently outside, a pair of hands around a warm mug as the crackling whispers of the fireplace burn on. This candle blends together the white and amber colors of snow, milk, sheep’s wool, honey, and grain and encourages us to appreciate what we have stored for the winter as we anticipate the stirrings of Spring.
