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.
This candle is marked with number 3 of the Major Arcana – The Empress. This archetype comprises the four main roles of a woman: Mother, Wife, Lover, and Handmaid. The Empress symbolizes authority, fertility, motherhood, sexuality, beauty, plenty, and wealth, however, at the same time The Empress encompasses excessive control, demonstration of power, overly eager desire to take care of the surroundings, as well as waning or dwindled feminine energy.
Included with this candle you will find one of the 22 Major Arcana cards, which, together with The Empress, may suggest how and at what level the archetype of The Empress manifests itself in your life. Suggested affirmations and the magical aroma of neroli, roses, ambergris, grapefruits and vanilla will help to harmonize the feminine energy and restore the necessary balance.
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.
Orange blossoms (neroli): orange blossom aroma possesses soothing and antiseptic qualities, acts as an aphrodisiac. In Italy orange blossoms were traditionally used for making bridal crowns. This fragrance soothes, helps to reduce anger and other negative emotions. According to numerous scientific research, vanilla’s fragrance increases sexual attraction.
Grapefruit: it helps to open the heart, frees from sadness, nervousness and anxiety. The energy of grapefruit’s fragrance boosts optimism, natural charm and self-confidence, restores aura after serious illness or emotional stress.
Rose: this aroma is particularly recommended for women who lack confidence in their charm and sexual maturity. Rose aroma is also considered a good remedy against frigidity in both women and men.
Ambergris: it is one of the most-highly prized ingredients of perfume. The smell of ambergris is characterized by unique invigorating evening musk aroma with oriental notes. Ambergris has been long considered a symbol of luxury and power.
