A slender dinner candle that fills a room with both light and a gentle fragrance. This piece is made in the spirit of the Sixth Chakra (Ajna), Third Eye Chakra, bringing the mood of lavender, geranium and neroli essential oils to the dinner table or the meditation corner.
The chakra in tradition
The chakra tradition places the seven main energy centres along the spine. Tradition associates this centre with intuition, clarity and inner wisdom, and its traditional colour is indigo. In the imagery of this tradition each centre marks a level of awareness; this candle simply gives that mood light and scent. It promises no fact and makes no medical claim – the fragrance and the flame just help you settle into a calm moment.
Fragrance and material
The candle is made of stearin and scented with essential oils, with lavender, geranium and neroli at the heart of the composition. It has a slender dinner shape, measures roughly 21 × 2.2 cm, and burns from a cotton wick with a steady flame. Tradition links the indigo colour to this chakra, and the fragrance evokes the mood of that theme.
How to use it
Ideal for deep meditation, visualisation, or an evening wind-down. The chakra dinner candles are lovely as a series too: the seven centres can be followed from the root chakra to the crown, each with its own fragrance. Set it in a stable candle holder on a heat-resistant surface and trim the wick before lighting.
Good to know
Keep it out of draughts, which shorten the burning time. Never leave a burning candle unattended, and keep it away from children, pets and flammable objects.
