The Weirdly Wonderful World of Wicked Good Sage and Rosemary Smudge Spray

Today, I'm here to spill the magical tea on the Wicked Good Sage and Rosemary Smudge Spray from Candle Wick Shoppe. Trust me, darlings, it's like a mystical spa day for your soul.

Let's talk sage, my lovely weirdos. Sage isn't just your grandma's favorite seasoning; it's the OG energy cleanser. I mean, who wouldn't want to clear away the bad juju, right? This spray takes sage to a whole new level – no need to mess around with bundles and smoke. A few spritzes, and you're practically bathing in a cloud of good vibes. Negativity, be gone!

Now, let's talk rosemary. This herb isn't just for seasoning potatoes; it's like a magical bouncer for your energy field. Picture this – rosemary standing at the door, arms crossed, ready to kick any negative vibes to the curb. It's like having your own personal bodyguard made of mystical herbs. Rosemary brings in protection like a forcefield, ensuring you're shielded from any unwanted energy.

But here's the best part, my weird and wonderful friends – this smudge spray is as sassy as it gets. No need for a dull, routine energy cleanse. Just spritz it around, and watch as the energy shifts with a touch of mystical flair. It's like giving your aura a makeover, darling – and who doesn't love a good makeover?

So, in the spirit of weird sassiness and mystical mischief, grab yourself a bottle of Wicked Good Sage and Rosemary Smudge Spray. Let the magic flow, and let the weirdness thrive. Because in this world of the strange and supernatural, a little sass goes a long way. Stay weird, my friends!

How To Change Your Life

May2023 FullMoonIt is the end of Mercury Retrograde in Taurus and how impactful it was! However, we're not done with this energy yet. Mercury has gone direct, and still, this energy is encouraging us to reflect on what we have learned during this time of change. Some of you may have awakened to some realities about yourself and the physical world.

What is not working? Is the question that seems to be reflected in the collective consciousness, so let us address that.

It is important to have an understanding of yourself by being "radically honest" about the ways you may have been operating in relation to your personal development. Now is a great time to apply yourself and be steadfast in the commitments you have made towards your long-term growth and freedom. Hold yourself accountable for the ways you may have operated out of alignment with your authenticity and do some course correction. Start by being mindful of your mental disposition.

How do you talk to yourself?

Sometimes we can curse ourselves with our own negative perspective. Cultivate an energy of encouragement and catch yourself in the moments you may feel defeated. Changing your perspective is pivotal to changing anything within your environment, and sometimes, a little delusion is healthy. Focus on the possibility of having it all work out for you; continue to work with the energy of abundance, instead of the bleakness of your current reality.

However, your new life will not be created overnight.

Understand that anything worth having requires diligent work, dedication, and consistency. Keep in mind why you are making different choices in your life and believe in the power it has to create a world for you to thrive! Our behaviors are wired in our psyche and it is important for you to slow down and see how you have contributed to the current state of your life.

Go within and BE DIFFERENT!

When it comes to working your magic, that means you have become aware of your innate abilities to transcend and be victorious in whatever you do; there are tools and resources available to assist you on your path in understanding the power you hold within. As you journey through change, know that you are not alone. We are all changing every day, by the second, and taking the initiative to be responsible for the causes you make in this world is a great accomplishment. Congratulations for realizing how powerful you are!

At Candle Wick, we take great pride in providing a safe space for others to be free in their authenticity. We understand life and the idiosyncratic expressions of the human existence, so you can be yourself, no matter what that looks like. In the realm of metaphysics, working with the elements of nature is a great skill to practice in cultivating your innate abilities. Our specialty is candle magic and we are here to help guide you and ensure your success through the chaos.

We curate our candles with deliberate intention and recommend products such as the Aunt Jacki’s Ultimate: Uncrossing candle to assist with giving yourself leniency and grace in the mental process. If you struggle with low energy to get things done, our Blessed Herbal: Energy candle will do the job when you feel like you must chug three expresso shots to get by. Dorothy Morrison’s: Outta My Way candle will help you remove yourself from the situation so you can see the possibilities available to you on your path. Finally, the Astro Magic: Curse Breaker candle will cut through the negative debris and illuminate your path with clarity and foresight.

Whatever your “thing” may be, we have the resources to assist and always remember you hold the keys to unlock your full potential. You, my friends, are magical!

Be well, good humans and Godspeed.

February Feature: Jax Kelly Candles

 

Led by founder Kelly Decker, their mission is to create mindful products that evoke a sense of peace, love, and joy so you feel connected to your higher self and your surroundings. They want to empower you with a positive mindset to elevate your energy. They've been hand-crafting unique pieces at approachable price points since 2014 - when Kelly was hand-drilling every single piece out of the bedroom of her apartment. They've come a long way since that one-bedroom "studio," but their process remains true to that message, and the original vision. Their candle collections are hand-poured in small batches out of our sunny studio, using 100% American grown soy wax and clean fragrance blends of perfume and essential oils. All are free from parabens, phthalates, paraffins, toxins, and are vegan and cruelty-free. We're happy you're here, and are grateful each day for your continued support of this woman-owned and woman-operated business of ours.

January's Feature Product: 4 Points Trading Candles

Four Points Candle Co. is a small woman owned company from California that began in 2016. They specialize in making the most realistic scents possible that bring back memories of home and happiness. Like many candle companies they had the humble beginnings of the kitchen in their own home, recreating scents from their own childhoods to help tell their daughter stories from the past. These candles are small, but mighty with a 45 hour burn time from the small four ounce size. These candles are made with an all natural soy wax base and a cotton wick for a slightly cleaner burn and a strong home filling scent. While this brand is still small and growing larger every day, they have started to branch out from just candles with the new reed diffusers in the same nostalgic scents.

Four Points Candle Co. is a candle brand that blows minds with every new scent. From common scents like Roasted Marshmallow and Georgia Peach to the wild like Fruit Loops and Motor Oil, they hit the mark every time. Since we at the Candle Wick Shoppe started working with them in 2018, we’ve experienced scents from the weird to the delicious. Some of our favorite scents are Orange Juice, Georgia Peach, Peanut Butter, Rose, Tobacco, and Leather. Each one brings us the memories of our lives and leaves us feeling a little better.

As if we needed another reason to love spring: My take on Persephone and Demeter

As a kid, I was completely obsessed with Greek mythology (this was before Rick Riordan make it cool). Somewhere in the depths of my grandfather’s basement I found two books from apersephone larger hardcover set: The Myths of Old Greece, copyright 1898. I received many, many more books over the years but those were always my favorites.
