Evil Eye Geode candle:

The Evil Eye: A Symbol of Protection Across the Ages

For centuries, the evil eye has been a powerful symbol of protection against negative energies and malicious intentions. Its origins date back to ancient civilizations, where it was believed that certain individuals possessed the power to curse or bring misfortune to others with a single glance.

In ancient Greece and Rome, the evil eye was known as "apoptropaic," meaning it had the power to ward off evil. People wore talismans and amulets featuring the evil eye symbol to deflect negative energies and attract good fortune.

In many Middle Eastern and Mediterranean cultures, the evil eye is still believed to be a potent force that can bring harm or good luck, depending on the intentions of the person casting the gaze. To protect themselves, people often wear jewelry or display decorative items featuring the evil eye symbol, like our Evil Eye Geode candle.

This stunning candle features a geode design, representing the natural beauty and power of the earth. The evil eye symbol at its center serves as a reminder of the ancient traditions and beliefs that have been passed down through generations.

Light the Evil Eye Geode candle to invite positivity and protection into your space. Let its warm glow remind you of the enduring power of ancient symbols and the importance of warding off negative energies.

Bi-colour candles, hand poured. Send is a message should you wish to order and specify your colour combination.

In Pagan practice, bicolour candles combine the properties of two colours to enhance magical intent, with the specific meaning depending on the chosen colours and the individual's intention or tradition. For example, a green and red bicolour candle might represent a combination of health and passion, while a blue and white one could signify emotional healing and purity, or spiritual clarity and truth. The combination allows for a more nuanced magical working, but the ultimate interpretation rests with the practitioner.

Male/Female candles are available on order. All colours available.

Male and female figure candles are used in spiritual rituals and spellwork to represent individuals, allowing practitioners to direct energy and intention toward them. These candles symbolize the people involved in a ritual, whether it is for the practitioner themself or for another person. The color of the candle and specific herbs, oils, or incantations are chosen to amplify the spell's intention, such as promoting healing, attracting love, ensuring prosperity, or causing separation.
