Samhain Gift Set: Courage & Renewal Aromatherapy Candles | Luxury Irish Candles for Autumn Reflection

Autumn is a time of glorious paradox—a season of brilliant beauty, yet one of deep decline. The heat of summer has passed and the leaves fall in preparation for the stark silence of winter. For the ancient Celts, this transition was more than just a seasonal shift. Samhain (pronounced Sow-in), observed from October 31st into November 1st, marked the most crucial date on their calendar: the Celtic New Year. It was the moment the old year died and the long, dark, regenerative half of the year began This profound moment of harvest and decay, of dying and seeding, offers a powerful mirror for the cycles in our own lives. Samhain is a liminal time, when the veil between our world and the spirit world is believed to be at its thinnest, inviting deep reflection, divination, and transformation. The Wizard & Grace Samhain Gift Set is designed to honour this sacred transition. Featuring our two most popular candles - Courage and Renew, this set provides the comforting aromas and intentions needed to release the old and bravely welcome the Celtic new year. What’s Included in Your Samhain Gift Set: Our Courage Candle with essential oils of Rosemary, Juniperberry, Cypress and Bergamot - this blend embodies the courage to face change. It helps you stand firm as you release what no longer serves you—like the tree shedding its leaves. Our Renewal candle with essential oils of Lemongrass, Lavender, Sage and Grapefruit is designed to the 'seeding' aspect of autumn. As the Celtic New Year begins, this scent reminds you that new buds and intentions are already forming in the silent darkness. Wizard & Grace candles are only scented with our bespoke essential oil blends, blended into rapeseed and coconut wax with cotton wicks and compostable packaging.
