      Every culture that has looked up has found meaning in the sun and the moon. In ancient Egypt, Ra and Khonsu governed the cycle of day and night; in Greek tradition, Apollo drove the sun’s chariot while Artemis held the moon. Across Mesoamerican, Chinese, and Norse cosmology, the pairing appears again and again — two forces in tension, two forces in balance. Not opposites but complements.

      The Sun and Moon Candle captures that duality in 100% natural soy wax, hand-poured and hand-finished at our Orlando studio. Available in 10 colors and 7 phthalate-free scents, this is a candle that holds its meaning whether it burns on an altar, a nightstand, or a styled bookshelf.

      Scents: Unscented · French Vanilla · Mango Papaya · Orange Berry Bliss · White Eucalyptus · Bohemian Rose · Lemon Lavender

      Candle care

      • 🕯️ First burn: Allow the wax pool to reach the edges before extinguishing — this prevents tunnelling and extends the life of the sculpture.
      • ✂️ Trim the wick to 5 mm before every burn for a clean, even flame.
      • ⏱️ Burn sessions: Keep each session to 3–4 hours maximum.
      • 🌊 Never burn dry: Stop burning when 1 cm of wax remains at the base.
      • 💨 Extinguish safely: Use a candle snuffer — never blow out your candle.
      • ☀️ Keep cool: Store away from direct sunlight and heat to preserve the color and sculptural detail.
      • 🖤 Display option: This candle holds its form and meaning unlit — many customers use it purely as a decorative sculpture.

      Is this candle safe to burn?

      Yes. Made from 100% natural soy wax with a lead-free cotton wick and phthalate-free fragrance — non-toxic and clean-burning when used as directed.

      • ✂️Trim the wickTrim to 5 mm (¼ inch) before every burn. A properly trimmed wick gives a clean, steady flame and prevents mushrooming or excess soot.
      • ⏱️First burn — the most importantOn your first burn, let the wax pool reach all the way to the edges of the vessel before extinguishing. This sets the memory ring and prevents tunnelling for the life of the candle.
      • 🕐Burn sessionsBurn for a maximum of 3–4 hours at a time. Allow the candle to cool completely before relighting. For sculptural pieces, we recommend 1-hour sessions to best preserve the form.
      • 📍PlacementPlace on a heat-resistant dish or tray. Keep away from draughts, open windows, and air vents — these cause uneven burning and excess smoke.
      • 🛑When to stopStop burning when approximately 1 cm of wax remains. Burning to the very base can overheat the container and damage the surface beneath.
      • ☀️StorageStore in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Prolonged UV exposure can fade the colour and affect fragrance strength.
      • 🔥SafetyNever leave a burning candle unattended. Keep away from children, pets, and flammable materials. Always burn on a stable, level, heat-resistant surface.
      How do I prevent my candle from tunnelling?

      The most important step is the first burn. Let the wax melt all the way to the edges of the vessel before extinguishing — this sets the memory ring. If the candle tunnels from a missed first burn, a longer subsequent burn session and a candle warmer can help recover the pool.

      Why is there white powder or bloom on my candle?

      White bloom (frosting) is a completely natural characteristic of 100% soy wax. It happens when the wax recrystallises — especially in temperature changes. It does not affect burn quality or fragrance throw. It is actually a sign that your candle is made from natural soy, not a blend.

      My candle is producing black soot — what should I do?

      Soot is almost always caused by an untrimmed wick. Extinguish the candle, let it cool, and trim the wick to 5 mm before relighting. Also check for draughts — any air movement can cause an unsteady flame and excess carbon deposits.

      Can I burn sculptural candles or will they melt out of shape?

      Yes, they are fully functional. Sculptural candles are designed to be burned, though the form will gradually change as the wax melts. For display longevity, keep burn sessions to 1 hour. Place on a heat-resistant dish to catch any pooled wax and protect the surface beneath.

      Are Votive candles safe around pets?

      Yes. Our candles use phthalate-free fragrance oils, lead-free cotton wicks, and 100% natural soy wax — no paraffin, no toxins. As with any open flame, keep candles out of reach of animals and never leave burning candles unattended in rooms where pets are unsupervised.

      How long will my candle burn?

      Burn time depends on size. Small pieces (2–4 oz): 20–35 hours. Medium (6–8 oz): 40–60 hours. Large sculptures (10–14 oz): 60–100 hours. Keeping the wick trimmed and avoiding draughts will maximise burn time.
