Invite your ancestors to gather at your hearth.

The dead are not always as far away as they seem.

At Samhain, when the veil between worlds is said to grow thin, we have a special opportunity to invite our ancestors into our homes once more.

The Ancestors candle is a spell of ancestral communion, made to welcome those who came before you and invite their guidance and protection into your life.

Before lighting this candle, take a moment to think of your ancestors. You don't need to know their names or even who they were. Simply hold the intention of welcoming those who wish to be known to you.

Then, speak the activation words and light the flame.

As it burns, the spell invites your ancestors to draw near. Sit with the candle for a few moments and notice who comes to mind. You may find that an ancestor you never knew is waiting to be discovered.

Each candle is hand-charmed at my altar just outside Salem, Massachusetts for ancestral communion, guidance, and protection.

The particulars

  • 9oz soy wax in an amber glass jar

  • Topped with Ruscus and Baby's Breath (yours is chosen individually — no two look alike)

  • Unscented

  • Printed card with the activation spell and instructions

Ships within 5–7 business days (please allow time for hand-charming). Natural variations in appearance are part of what makes each candle unique.

How To Light Your Candle

Put the candle somewhere warm and welcoming. Read the card — it takes about 15 seconds. Light the wick and let the spell do its thing.

You can burn it all in one sitting or over a few. The spell is already cast (that's my job). You're just opening the door.

Questions I Get A Lot

Do I have to believe in magic for this to work?
Nope. The spell is already cast — belief isn't a required ingredient.

Is this safe for kids and pets?
The base is fine: soy wax, cotton wick, no fragrance oils, no toxic anything. But, I recommend no snacking on the decorations (looking at you, curious cat).

How long does it burn?
About 50–60 hours.

Do you make other spell candles?
Many. Here's the full shelf.

Meet The Witch

I'm Alex, a witch living in the woods outside Salem. On any given day, you'll find me charming candles at my altar, talking to the crows out the kitchen window, or explaining to my husband why I used all his good whisky for an offering.

I've been practicing for fifteen years in a wildly chaotic, allergic-to-rules sort of way.

I make these candles because I believe in reclaiming the old ways. Every one is charmed on my altar before it ships, in small batches, by hand.
