DRY SPELL
Aromatic Soy Candle
 
Sweet Orange and Frankincense 
 
In a deep feeling of pride, you look at the bast desert in front of you. Immersed in a sandstorm you think of all of that you have achieved. Taking a deep whiff at the Frankincense resin you are carrying in your hand, you can now breath in and breath out peacefully. Feeling the sun shining on your skin you think of the uplifting scent of sweet orange: delightful blooming brightness.
 
The candles are 80g (net wax weight) and give around 18-20 hours of burn time.

Background story:
In December 2019 I visited a Brazilian shaman in order to perform a healing ritual. During the session with the lady shaman, I experienced two visions:⁠
⁠
* During the first vision, I was a woman in the middle of a tropical jungle. I was with a group of people, we were a tribe. Almost nacked, we were standing in a group circle, holding each other, passing our arms around the shoulders. We were all wearing a white floral garland around our necks. The flowers in the garlands smelled delicious, they were big, juicy, and pure. We were celebrating that the green and dense tropical forest is our home.⁠
⁠
* During the second vision, I was a skinny nomad man. I was standing in a huge sand dune in the middle of the desert. I was alone, and there was a stunning sand storm. I was standing there, observing the wilderness and the beauty of the sand flowing in all directions. I was not scared to die. I felt full of pride and honor for my life.⁠
⁠
After many months of work, I am very happy to announce that this beautiful story has been transformed into two magnetically attracting scented soy candles!!! This is my caring and loving way of sharing it with all of you. Because who doesn't have that desert-forest duality within us?⁠
