Making candles has always been a special ritual for me. Not only do I love their light and warmth, but also the variety of minerals that can be incorporated into them. When I make a new candle, I always enjoy selecting the minerals, as each one has its own unique effect that contributes to the harmony of the candle.
Making mineral candles is the perfect way to add personal, spiritual meaning to candlemaking. Whether it's a scented candle, soy candle, or mineral candle, the finished work will not only decorate your home, but also fill the space with special energy. Get started and create harmony with the power of minerals and candles!
Making a mineral candle:
Choosing raw materials: Choose a plant-based base, because it is a natural and environmentally friendly solution, and it is also easy to work with. Use a fragrance oil (no, essential oil is not the same) to make a scented candle.
Preparing the minerals: Clean the crystals under running water or with a incense burner to make them energetically clean.
Candle casting: Melt the vegetable wax and pour it into the glass or glass that has already been prepared with a wick. (You can read the detailed step-by-step guide to making a scented candle here). Place the minerals in the bottom of the glass holder and pour the wax on top, or wait until it hardens and decorate the surface of your candle with it.
Wick placement: Place the wick exactly in the center of the candle, making sure it does not touch the minerals. (You can also read about wicks here)
Once you have your candle, wait at least 48 hours before lighting it!
Here are some popular minerals:
Green aventurin
A stone of luck and abundance. I always feel more confident when I have it with me and it helps me to be more open to new opportunities. It helps reduce stress and think positively, while also providing harmonious energy. For me, this crystal is a symbol of calm and balance.
Red Jasper
A stone of strength and stability. I always feel it grounds me and gives me energy when I need it. It helps me focus, become confident and persistent, especially when facing challenges. For me, this crystal is a symbol of vitality and inner strength.
Tyger's eye
A beautiful mineral that I love because of its unique appearance. The golden, brown and black stripes look like they are looking out of a tiger's eye. I feel that tiger's eye attracts me not only because of its beauty, but also because it radiates a kind of protection and strength. It is said to help me see things clearly and understand situations better. That is why I like to use it when I have to make important decisions or when I feel like I need a little extra courage. Its energy is like a powerful protection in my everyday life.
Amethyst
When it comes to calming the soul, I always keep amethyst in my bag. This mineral helps reduce stress during meditation and helps create inner peace. When anger or anxiety takes hold of me, I find solace in the flame of an amethyst candle.
Rose Quartz
The stone of love and I always feel its warmth when I sit next to rose quartz candles. This mineral works on the energies of the heart to support the creation of love and harmony, even towards ourselves. The pink light creates a space where our emotions can flow freely.
Lapis Lazuli
As a stone of intellect and wisdom, lapis lazuli candles help me connect with my inner knowing. When I feel like I have lost my way, the flame of such a candle reminds me of truth and knowledge. Its light gives me direction on my path
Black Obsidian
For me, it is one of the most powerful protective minerals. It helps me get rid of negative energies, supports my journey of self-knowledge, and gives me the strength to make changes. When I feel like I need cleansing or emotional protection, I always carry it with me because it calms me and gives me security.
When I think about candle making, I always remember that these minerals are not just decorative elements. The light of the candle and the energy of the minerals together create harmony and strength in our lives. Candle making is now not only a hobby for me, but also a way to express myself and connect with the energies of nature.
These mineral candles are truly wonderful discoveries. I encourage you to fall asleep with them, feel their magic and experience the wonders that these energy sources hold!
IMPORTANT!!!
The effects of candles made with minerals are hypothetical and there is no scientific evidence that minerals have any healing effects. Such candles are more intended to enhance meditation and relaxation experiences, as well as to find inner balance. If you have any health questions regarding our candles, always consult a medical professional. Minerals are therefore symbolic and energetic supplements that enrich the atmosphere and environment, but they are not considered healing tools.
