Scented Candle THE STAR

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 17 of the Major Arcana – The Star. This archetype of hope’s joy fills every person’s heart with optimism, positivity and the feeling of the new period of life. Every difficult stage of life becomes easier with the promise of a better period which is necessary for every person’s spiritual growth and formation, as well as for creation of future projections. The Star is not only a symbol of our belief in future, the ability to think positively and shape the model of out future, but it also serves as an inspiration source from which we can constantly draw new ideas and creativity. When looking at the guiding star, we can always ask ourselves the following questions: “Do I believe in better future? How do I view it? What would I like it to be?”

Included with this candle you will find one of the 22 Major Arcana cards, which, in combination with The Star, may suggest how and at what level the archetype of The Star manifests itself in your life. Suggested affirmations and the magical hibiscus, water lily, lilac, lily of the valley, lavender, sandalwood fragrance may help you to believe in future and to think positively.

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.

Hibiscus: The aroma of hibiscus has been used in magic rituals mostly for love spells and for creating recipes that awaken desire. However, not everyone knows that hibiscus can also help reveal the gift of clairvoyance and premonitory dreams, as well as open paths towards knowing one’s inner-self. The fragrance of hibiscus stimulates the processes of the subconscious.
Water lily: the Latin name of the water lilies family, Nymphaeaceae is derived from the name of the Greek nymphs living in lakes, rivers and streams, therefore water lilies contain a lot of water and moon energy. Water lilies symbolize tranquility, purity, spiritual glow and modesty. Their aroma helps to fight earthly lusts and soothes the soul. During magic rituals the aroma of water lilies enhances imagination and the ability to visualize your goals.
Lilac: the cleansing aroma of lilac has been used in magic rituals for removing spells and illusions, for revealing the truth. The fragrance of lilac boosts the mood, promotes the ideas of common good and partnership and lifts the mood and personality to a higher spiritual level.
Lily of the valley: in ritual magic, lily of the valley was used for inducing consciousness, calmness, positivity, as well as for driving away depressive thoughts and attracting luck. Although lily of the valley is an extremely poisonous and potentially even deadly plant, since ancient times it was believed to have been favored by fairies and elves and symbolized innocence and spiritual purity, spiritual renewal and rebirth.
Lavender: lavender aroma has a calming and soothing effect, helps to relax muscle spasms and relieve aches. The energy of the essential oil helps to know and understand oneself, restores strength and is suitable for meditations. It ensures thorough energetic relaxation, also reduces aggression, helps to avoid envy and jealousy.

    Hathor Harmony pieces remind us to be more conscious of the VIBRATIONS. What sound, words and music do I surround myself with and also share with others. What is the tone, the intention and emotions behind my words. Am I creating HARMONY with them or not? It reminds me to sing or humm every day. To listen to music that lifts me, brings a smile on my face and makes my body move. And when necessary to enter the VIBRATION of silence.

    In ancient Egypt HATHORS were Goddesses/Gods of love, beauty, music, dancing, fertility, peace and harmony. The colour often associated with them was BLUE.
