Autumn is a time of glorious paradox—a season of brilliant beauty, yet one of deep decline. The heat of summer has passed and the leaves fall in preparation for the stark silence of winter.

For the ancient Celts, this transition was more than just a seasonal shift. Samhain (pronounced Sow-in), observed from October 31st into November 1st, marked the most crucial date on their calendar: the Celtic New Year. It was the moment the old year died and the long, dark, regenerative half of the year began

This profound moment of harvest and decay, of dying and seeding, offers a powerful mirror for the cycles in our own lives. Samhain is a liminal time, when the veil between our world and the spirit world is believed to be at its thinnest, inviting deep reflection, divination, and transformation.

The Wizard & Grace Samhain Gift Set is designed to honour this sacred transition. Featuring our two most popular candles - Courage and Renew, this set provides the comforting aromas and intentions needed to release the old and bravely welcome the Celtic new year.

What’s Included in Your Samhain Gift Set:

Our Courage Candle with essential oils of Rosemary, Juniperberry, Cypress and Bergamot - this blend embodies the courage to face change. It helps you stand firm as you release what no longer serves you—like the tree shedding its leaves.

Our Renewal candle with essential oils of Lemongrass, Lavender, Sage and Grapefruit is designed to the 'seeding' aspect of autumn. As the Celtic New Year begins, this scent reminds you that new buds and intentions are already forming in the silent darkness.

Wizard & Grace candles are only scented with our bespoke essential oil blends, blended into rapeseed and coconut wax with cotton wicks and compostable packaging.

🕯️ Deep Dive: The Samhain Aromatherapy Gift Set

The Samhain Gift Set is more than just two luxury candles; it is a ritual tool rooted in the oldest traditions of the Celtic calendar. Samhain (pronounced Sow-in) marks the crucial hinge point of the year. It is not merely the end of the harvest, but, historically, the moment of Celtic New Year, marking the shift from the light half (Beltane) to the dark half (Samhain).

This powerful cross-quarter day (falling approximately halfway between the Autumn Equinox and Winter Solstice) is considered a liminal time, when the veil between our world and the spirit world is at its thinnest. This closeness to the Otherworld made it a time of magic, divination, and vital change for the ancient people of Ireland and Scotland.

Embracing the Wisdom of Decline and Renewal

The autumn season presents a profound metaphor for life: everything that dies, seeds. The leaves fall, but beneath the bare earth, new life is already preparing for its spring return. Our two handcrafted aromatherapy candles embody this dual wisdom:

1. The Courage Candle: For Release and Reflectio

The Courage Candle is your anchor during this time of necessary letting go. Samhain was when crucial decisions were made—livestock were brought in, and community fires were ceremonially extinguished, plunging the land into darkness before the Samhain Bonfires were lit anew at sacred sites. This requires courage.

Intention: To face the darkness, release past burdens, and clear the slate for the year ahead. This is the energy of the dying year and the ancestral connection.
Why You Need It Now: Use this blend of Protective Rosemary, Juniperberry and Bergamot when you need to stand firm in the face of change.

2. The Renew Candle: For Planting New Seeds

Just as the sun begins its slow, quiet return on the Celtic New Year, the Renewal Candle holds the promise of the future. It supports the powerful belief that new life begins in the dark, much like seeds germinating underground.

Intention: To plant new intentions, nurture hidden potential, and call in the blessings of the coming cycle. This is the energy of the new year and future growth.
Renewal Candle, New Beginnings, Winter Intention Setting, Growth Ritual,
Why You Need It Now: Light this Lemongrass, Lavender and Sage blend for journaling, planning, or whenever you need a boost of quiet optimism, reminding you that your deepest desires are already taking root.

Customer reviews

I'm so delighted to have found this lovely candle brand. As someone who is very conscious of what toxins are in my home, I typically re-gift candles and so was thrilled to be gifted a Wizard & Grace candle last year. The scent is divine would recommend 100%.

Regular candles give me husband and I a headache so we had given up using them. That's why I was so delighted to find Wizard & Grace candles as we can burn these in our home, they smell amazing and no headaches. If I could give more stars I would!

FAQs

What is a Wizard & Grace 'Wellbeing' Candle?

Harnessing the power of nature, each 100% essential oil blend is meticulously crafted by founder and yoga teacher Paula to address specific wellbeing needs.

Our candles not only smell beautiful, they actively nurture your mind, body and soul through the therapeutic power of essenitla oils.

What makes Wizard & Grace candles different?

We only use bespoke essential oil blends - that we create ourselves to support a wellbeing quality - to scent along with the most sustainable and renewable wax - rapeseed and coconut wax and compostable packaging.

Everything we do is considered carefully from our plastic-free delivery promise to our raw materials.

We go the extra mile to ensure we are as sustainable and environmentally friendly as possible.

Why do you use Rapseed and Coconut wax and not Soy?

Soy, while natural, is an unsustainable crop to grow - land should be left to rest for 18 months between crops. In practice this is not happening. The demand for soy is creating intenstive farming practices, deforestation and social justice issues in countries of origin

While we started our candle testing with soy originally, upon realising we researched and found that rapeseed and coconut wax is the most renewable and sustainable wax available.

We are also looking at other options such as olive wax so we are always open to making sure we are at the top of our sustainability game.
