Visitation Rosary Candle

This is a hand poured small batch beeswax candle inspired by the Joyful Mysteries of the Rosary. This candle, inspired by the second Joyful Mystery, The Visitation, is scented with a thoughtful custom blend of fragrance notes including Fig, Green Leaves, Freesia, and Plum.

Inspiration behind the scent :

“And Elizabeth was filled with the Holy Ghost: And she cried out with a loud voice, and said: Blessed art thou among women, and blessed is the fruit of thy womb.” - Luke 1:42

The traditional feast day of The Visitation is July 2nd - during summer when fruit trees such as fig and plum begin to produce. From the Epistle reading on July 2nd - "The fig tree hath put forth her green figs: the vines in flower yield their sweet smell. Arise, my love, my beautiful one, and come:" - Canticle of Canticles 2:13

All materials and scents I use are 100% clean, non-toxic, and centered around the Catholic faith.

Did you know beeswax candles have been used exclusively in the Catholic Church for centuries?

According to the Catholic Encyclopedia, “The pure wax extracted by bees from flowers symbolizes the pure flesh of Christ received from His Virgin Mother, the wick signifies the soul of Christ, and the flame represents His divinity.”

Candle Care Instructions :

• Never leave burning candle unattended.
• Allow the first burn to form a complete melt pool before extinguishing.
• Trim wick 1/4” to 1/8” short each time before lighting.
• Keep away from children, pets, and flammable objects such as curtains.
• Do not burn longer than 3-4 hours at a time.
• Extinguish the flame with a snuffer or by dipping the wick into the wax pool with a metal object- this will eliminate the chance of soot build-up and smoke.
