Woodland Magic
9 oz soy candle
"Wouldst thou uncover strixine secrets?"
The woods change at night. As the sun sets, darkness reaches up from the sky and wraps itself around roots, leaves, tails, and paws, curling around the base of trees and sweeping around disturbed woodland edges.
Intention and sigil-infused and poured in small batches, Nightwood candles evoke the woodland at after dark. Through the familiar aromas of spruce and birch rise a series of complex scents, meant to summon that mysterious quality of a dark forest, including chrysanthemum and bergamot. They are ornamented with a number of protective stones and plants, including obsidian and juniper berries; amber reflects the light of the flame and reminds us that the day will come again. Burn this candle when the sun sets, to enjoy the fragrances of the night, to create a forest ritual, or to inspire meditation on the woodland creatures who make the nighttime their home.
This 9 oz candle is hand-poured in small batches, with a burning time of 40+ hours. This particular batch is a night black.
