Awen is the Welsh word for the spark of inspiration, the breath that moves through a poet or a working. Lailokens Awen, a small American candle maker, took the name for a line of candles built around that idea: each one is poured for a single purpose, scented and colored to match, and sized to burn through a working in an evening or two. The 4 1/4-inch intention candles cover the everyday needs of a practice, from Protection and Purification to Legal Matters and Business Success, while the sabbat candles mark the eight turnings of the Wheel of the Year with a color and scent for each holiday. A short line of 15ml oils rounds out the set. At Plentiful Earth we carry the full range we can get, because these are the candles our staff reach for on their own altars.
What You'll Find Here
Intention candles. The core of the line: Protection, Purification, Clearing, Healing, Love, Meditation, Legal Matters, and Business Success in a 4 1/4-inch pillar that burns for several hours. Each is colored and scented for its purpose, so it works out of the box or dressed with a matching oil.
Elemental candles. Earth and Fire are sold singly, and the Elemental Set gathers all four elements for quarter calls, circle casting, or a balanced altar. A Full Moon candle joins them for lunar work.
Sabbat and altar candles. One candle for each spoke of the Wheel: Imbolc, Spring Equinox, Beltane, Lughnasadh, Autumn Equinox, Samhain, and Winter Solstice. Many people buy the set at the start of the year and burn one at each holiday, which makes a simple, satisfying seasonal practice. The White Altar Candle Set of two covers the general-purpose pair that sits at the back of most altars.
Oils. Fifteen-milliliter bottles of Protection, Love, and Fast Money, plus archangel oils for Michael, Gabriel, and Metatron, made for anointing candles, petitions, and tools.
How Do I Use a Lailokens Awen Candle?
Set the candle on a heat-safe holder, state what you are working toward, and light it. The intention candles are meant to be burned in one to three sittings rather than saved, and dressing the candle with the matching oil before lighting is the traditional way to deepen the work. For the sabbat candles, light one at sunset on the holiday, or use it as the working candle for your seasonal ritual and let it burn down over the following days. Never leave a candle burning unattended, and trim the wick to a quarter inch between burns.

How long do the intention candles burn?

Can I dress these candles with oil?

What are the archangel oils for?
Michael for protection and courage, Gabriel for messages and clarity, Metatron for structure and higher guidance. Use them to anoint a candle, a doorway, or yourself before an invocation.
Which candle should a beginner start with?
