We created this collection of hand-made candles based on the 22 cards of the Major Arcana of the Tarot deck (Latin arcānus – mystery). These 22 cards can be interpreted as a person’s spiritual path from birth to perfection.
The candle marked with number 20 of the Major Arcana – Judgment. This archetype symbolizes resurrection, awakening and illumination, as well as freedom from blindness, routine, cycles and the ever-turning wheel of mistakes and misfortunes. The archetype of Judgment helps to understand the past mistakes, to analyze them and reevaluate the current situation. This new light makes us perceive ourselves and our surroundings and thus we are reborn and able to choose our path towards the better tomorrow. Judgment is like another step towards spiritual resurrection, that lifts us to a new spiritual level. It is a renewal and validation of values. Will you be able to rise from ashes like a phoenix?
Included with this candle you will find one of the 22 Major Arcana cards, which, in combination with Judgement, may suggest how and at what level the archetype of The Judgement manifests itself in your life. Suggested affirmations and the magical eucalyptus, lemongrass, rosemary, coriander seeds, lilac, myrrh fragrance may help you to understand the past mistakes, to analyze them and reevaluate the current situation.
The magic fragrance of this candle is based on old customs, traditions and the belief that every plant or aroma has its own magical purpose. It is like a witch recipe, where each plant and its aroma have a very important aromatherapic and magic function. The main notes supplement each other with aromatherapic properties and create a high-end fragrance pyramid where each scent has its place in harmony with other aromas.
