Scented Candle THE HIEROPHANT

We created this collection of hand-made candles based on the 22 cards of the Major Arcana of the Tarot deck (Latin arcānus – mystery). These 22 cards can be interpreted as a person’s spiritual path from birth to perfection.

This candle is marked with number 5 of the Major Arcana – The Hierophant. The Hierophant controls tradition, principles, compliance with universal values of humankind. This archetype of the Major Arcana watches over groups of people who seek a common goal, whether it is a family, a band of colleagues or a religious group. The Hierophant conveys the rules of the cosmos, the overwhelming collective wisdom of the mankind.

Included with this candle you will find one of the 22 Major Arcana cards, which, together with The Hierophant, may suggest how and at what level the archetype of The Hierophant manifests itself in your life. Suggested affirmations and the magical aroma of juniper berries, liquorice, lilac, myrrh and opium will help to strengthen partnership, harmonize family and encourage teamwork.

The magic fragrance of this candle is based on old customs, traditions and the belief that every plant or aroma has its own magical purpose. It is like a witch recipe, where each plant and its aroma have a very important aromatherapic and magic function. The main notes supplement each other with aromatherapic properties and create a high-end fragrance pyramid where each scent has its place in harmony with other aromas.

Repeatedly uttered affirmations help to overcome obstacles and achieve goals that seemed impossible.
