Apollo, Greek God of Prophecy, Light, Music, Poetry, and Healing

Apollo is the god of light, truth, music, poetry, healing, and prophecy. He is the embodiment of a harmonious combination of physical, moral, and spiritual virtue. Apollo served as an intermediary between the gods and men. He is an oracular god, the patron of Delphi, and the prophetic deity of the Delphi Oracle. He led the nine Muses in song.

This yellow candle is embedded with bay laurel and sunstone. Yellow stimulates creativity, kindles the imagination, and symbolizes adaptiveness and healing. The scent is a combination of cypress, lavender, and sage. Sunstone clears all the chakras. It is an alchemical stone that creates a powerful connection to light and the sun's regenerative power during meditation and everyday life. Bay laurel symbolizes accomplishment, courage, beauty, and achievement in the arts.

Meditation: Radiant Apollo, patron of beauty, reason, and prophecy, grant me the insight and inspiration to see, feel, and express the music of my truth.

Candle magic illuminates your intention and releases it out into the universe.

My candles are infused with herbs, crystals, and a meditation script to help you focus your energy. A simple spell to use with this candle is to create a quiet, comfortable, and safe space. Visualize your intention and read the meditation as you light the candle. Stare at the flame and continue to send your intent into the light. You can sit in front of it for as long as you like. When ready, close your candle ritual with words of gratitude and a positive affirmation. Let your candle burn as much as needed, making sure you extinguish it before you leave.

Please remember that while powerful, candle magic and intention do not manifest immediate results. Whatever magical ceremony or ritual you decide to perform is simply the messenger whose purpose is to deliver your goals into the arms of the universe—nothing more. You still have to show the cosmos that you are willing to do the work needed to reach your goal.

Candle symbology

A candle embodies the five elements: earth, water, air, fire, and spirit. The wick is earth and keeps the flame constant. The wax, which transforms from a solid to a liquid and then to gas, emulates water’s transmutation properties. Oxygen, archetypal of air, is crucial for keeping the flame lit. The flame is a direct connection to fire, the element of transformation, and rebirth. The fifth element, spirit, is within us and manifests when our intention is placed into the candle and infuses it with our soul.
