Hey there Lovelies. Lately, I've been trying to manifest a few things that would make life in general more comfortable. Yeah, comfortable would be the word I'm looking for. I'll just come out and say it. I've been trying to get a new car. So I've been burning a combination of Lakshmi, Blessed Herbal Attraction, and Blessed Herbal Stability, all of which I've anointed with Blessed Herbal Attraction Oil, Witch's Brew Dragon's blood oil, and Motor City Hoo Doo Road Opener Oil. I wrote my intention on all three candles with a push pin. My Lakshmi has been torching pretty hard. 

Hello Lovelies!! It's that time of year where my inner witch gets amplified. Not like it needed to be amplified, I'm just able to wear my pointy hat in public without being judged. That being said, my pick for the 15% off sale are wiccan and witch essentials. Cauldrons, altar tiles, altar cloths, altar bells, and altar boxes. So embrace your inner witch and enjoy fall with me! The sale will take place from October 5^th  to October  11^th. 

This week I chose the evil eyes to put on special. I think these are a lovely addition to any home because they don't have a negative. Everything about them exudes positive energy. The evil eyes are used for protection among many cultures, but mainly the Middle East. They are said to protect against the evil or envious glares that are given when a person is not aware. Not only are they used to protect, but they are a beautiful thing to own!

I always keep a Votivo candle around the house.  My favorites are Tuscan Olive and Bright Leaf Tobacco.  Their beautiful fragrance fills a room even when they are not lit. I usually light a Votivo candle for just an hour or less and the aroma lingers all day.  When our rep comes into the store the whole staff wrestles over the samples he leaves us!  I have given many as gifts because they are such beautiful smelling high quality soy candles.  Votivo candles are 10% off all of September, so come by and take one home.  Your house will thank you.

We've expanded on our custom mojo bags! Here at Candle Wick, we're always coming up with new concoctions for you to carry for whatever it is you need, and we've done so again by adding on five new mojo bags to the ones we sell here in the shop. 

Introducing (drum roll please):

Calming: This herbal combination is to help you if the day-to-day stresses are becoming too much. Carry it close to you, in your pocket or around your neck, and let the soothing energy wash over you.

Dreams: Put this one under your pillow for vivid, clearer, or prophetic dreams. This may be assistance for those of you that don't regularly remember your dreams.

Happiness: Who doesn't need a little bit of happiness? Hold this mojo bag in your right hand while you meditate and let the good feelings run through you.

Passion: This one is a little bit tricky, because passion could not only relate to the romantic sector of your life, but to how passionate you are about your job, about your interests, etc. If you're trying to reignite the flame between you and someone else, I would suggest wearing it around your neck. If for work, put it in your purse. 

Wishes: Hold the wishes bag in both of your hands and tell it your desires. Put it under your pillow nightly and sleep on it. Do this until you feel confident that your wishes have been sent out into the universe and that someone is working on getting those desires for you.

We also make healing, love, money draw, protection and psychic awareness bags for more mojo wherever you go. Come on down and pick yours up today, they're only three dollars! AND if there's something that we have yet to make a bag for that you're interested in, please feel free to ask us to put one together for you!
