Description
Overview
Small in size but steady in purpose, this medium black spell candle is made for focused workings of protection and release. Its deep, subtly textured surface has a quiet, earthy weight that suits serious intention.
Some endings deserve a long ceremony. Others simply need to be acknowledged and set down. This medium candle is designed for the latter, allowing you to mark a clear, deliberate letting go within a single session.

Energetic Essence
Black is traditionally associated with protection, absorption of unwanted energy and the closing of cycles. It is often regarded as a guardian colour, one that creates a clear boundary between what you wish to keep and what you are ready to release.
Linked in many correspondences with Saturn and the waning moon, black candles are a traditional choice for cord-cutting rituals, breaking unhelpful patterns and clearing heavy atmospheres after difficult events.
How to Use
For a simple cord-cutting ritual, tie a length of natural string between this candle and a white candle, representing yourself and the connection you wish to release. Light both, and allow the flame to burn through the string in its own time, remaining present throughout.
Alternatively, write what you are releasing on paper, place it beneath the holder and let the candle burn down, then dispose of the paper and wax remnants away from your home.
Craftsmanship
Like the rest of our spell candle collection, this candle is hand-dipped. The wick is drawn repeatedly through molten wax, each pass adding a fine new layer, so the candle grows slowly into its finished shape.
The result is an honest, handmade surface. You may notice ripples, faint seams of colour or a slightly irregular silhouette, and these natural variations mean your candle is entirely its own.

Care Guide
Store your candle upright or lying flat in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, which can fade the colour and soften the wax. Before lighting, trim the wick to around 5 mm and set the candle firmly in a heatproof holder on a stable, non-flammable surface.
Never leave a burning candle unattended, and keep it well away from curtains, draughts, children and pets. Hand-dipped candles can drip more freely than moulded ones, so a dish or drip tray beneath the holder is recommended. Many practitioners prefer to extinguish ritual candles with a snuffer rather than blowing them out.
