Imbolc Crystal Infused Soy Candle

Imbolc is a time of initiation and hidden potential. We recommend lighting your candle at dusk on February 1st. As the flame flickers, write down three things you wish to "germinate" or start this spring on a piece of paper. Place that paper under the candle jar (safely away from the flame). Let the candle burn for at least two hours to allow the Amethyst and botanical energies of Bay Leaf and Rosemary to charge your intentions.

The crystal is yours to keep! Once the wax has burned down to the last half-inch, carefully remove the Amethyst with a spoon. You can clean off any remaining soy wax by rinsing the stone in warm, soapy water. Because it has been "charged" by your Imbolc intentions and the warmth of the flame, it makes a powerful pocket stone for maintaining peace and intuition throughout the spring season.

Yes. These botanicals are added for their traditional energetic properties of purification and manifestation. As the candle burns, they may move toward the wick or become submerged in the wax pool. To ensure the safest and cleanest burn, we recommend keeping an eye on the candle and using a metal tool (like a wick dipper or a spoon) to push any larger botanical pieces away from the flame if they get too close.

In the spirit of Imbolc—a festival of purification and the Goddess Brigid—we believe your ritual tools should be as "clean" as possible. Soy wax is a renewable, plant-based resource that burns without the black soot or toxic chemicals associated with paraffin. It provides a slower, cooler burn, which allows the delicate essential oils to release their aroma gradually rather than being "burnt off" too quickly.

Unlike summer floral candles that are often sugary and heavy, the Imbolc scent profile is designed to feel restorative and crisp. It leads with the herbal "cleanliness" of Chamomile and Heather before opening into the fragile, airy notes of Daffodil and Violet. The finish is earthy and velvety thanks to the Angelica Root, creating an atmosphere that feels like a fresh start rather than a heavy perfume.

Absolutely. Many practitioners use the "layering" method: light the candle to set the energy of the physical room, and apply the Imbolc Ritual Oil to your pulse points (wrists and temples) to align your personal energetic field with the same frequency. This creates a multi-sensory experience that deepens your connection to the Sabbat.

To get the most out of your 8oz candle, ensure that the first time you light it, you allow it to burn until the melted wax pool reaches all the way to the glass edges. This usually takes 2–3 hours. This "sets the memory" of the wax, ensuring an even burn for the rest of the candle's life and preventing wasted wax on the sides.

Yes! Imbolc and Brigid’s Day are inextricably linked. The candle’s themes of the "returning light" and the inclusion of Rosemary and Bay Leaf make it a perfect offering for an altar dedicated to Brigid, the goddess of the hearth, fire, and inspiration.
