Artemis Greek Goddess of the Hunt and Moon Ritual Candle

Artemis is the Goddess of the Hunt and the Moon, often associated with independence, self-reliance, focused, and determinedly reaching a goal. Artemis rules over the moon, the hunt, wild animals, and children. Her symbols are a bow and arrow, stags, hunting dogs, and the moon.

This turquoise candle is embedded with moonstone and thyme. The scent is a combination of jasmine, sandalwood, and cedar. Moonstone is associated with helping one with the changing structures of one’s life on the physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual levels. Thyme provides courage.

Meditation: Goddess of the hunt, grant me your independent spirit and unwillingness to compromise, so that I may find the strength to pursue benevolence, integrity, and justice as I follow my path.

Overall description. Coconut/Apricot wax candle hand-poured into an 8-ounce glass container. Burn time 20 hours. Each candle is dedicated to a Goddess with a suggested meditation. Handcrafted in Eugene, Oregon, candles have a wooden wick and are offered scented or unscented.

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.
