• Our Ancestor Altar Candle is a perfect way to honor and give reverence to loved ones who have passed; to honor their lives and the paths they paved before us. It also serves as a daily remembrance to those of us who have crossed the Veil. Every day you can light your candle and speak to your ancestors and loved ones. Getting quiet and asking for guidance and protection is a perfect way to align yourself in their path and know that you are guided and protected by them.
  • Using a chalk or white pencil, our lid allows you to write their names to help focus your remembrance. Bear in mind that you can honor anyone you like. A beloved pet, a friend, etc....Someone does not have to be a relative to be a part of our Spiritual Ancestry.

ANCESTOR ALTAR CANDLE


INGREDIENTS: Soy/beeswax - 8 ounces - White


SCENTS: rosemary & cypress


ROSEMARY has been considered by many cultures as a sacred herb tied to remembrance and love.


Rosemary is an ally to us both in life and in death.


The Cypress tree's height and distinctive pyramid-like shape seem to point to the sky, making them lofty symbols of the heavens, immortality and hope.


Cypress trees have been associated with death and mourning, often planted near cemeteries to keep watch over the entrance to the Otherworld. They have also been associated with the eternal life of a soul. It is protective and dispels evil energies. It can assist spiritual understanding of the laws of existence and the cycles of time.


HERBS and FLOWERS:


Cedar: Cedar trees in ancient times were thought to house important gods and to be an entrance to higher realms.


White Sage: In Celtic lore, sage represents wisdom and immortality. The practice of burning sage dates back to ancient times and it has been documented as having been used in every corner of the world by our ancestors.


Rose Petals: Roses have powerful energy fields that vibrate at a high frequency – highest of any flower on earth. In Islam, the fragrance of a rose represents the sacredness of people's souls.


CRYSTALS USED:


Amethyst: Amethyst is a powerful intuition crystal used to increase prophetic dreams, allowing our ancestors to speak to us through dreams and visions.


Celestite: Celestite increases communications and heightened consciousness.


Selenite: Highly vibrational and self-cleansing. It's light brings clarity and breaks through the debris that blocks us from connecting to our ancestors.

When using any crystals to communicate with the departed, be sure to place a protecting stone between your feet, such as Black Obsidian (included), to keep you grounded in the present.


The photo used on the candle is from my personal family showing how in times past my ancestors decorated the graves of their loved ones.


The lid on the candle has a space to write the name of your ancestor.
