Lailokens Awen White Altar Candle Set, Set of 2

The Lailokens Awen White Altar Candle Set gives you a matched pair of small white candles for the everyday work of keeping a clean, protected, and focused altar. White is the all-purpose color of witchcraft, standing in for any other when you need it and carrying its own currents of purity, protection, and clear intention. A pair lets you frame a working between two flames, dedicate one candle to each of two aims, or simply keep balanced light on your altar while you practice.

Each candle is hand-poured beeswax, anointed with a general magical oil and made on the day and hour of the Sun or Mercury so the timing lends solar steadiness and mental clarity to whatever you set before it. Because they are made by hand in small batches, slight variation in shade and finish is normal and is the mark of a genuine handmade candle rather than a flaw.

The Meaning of a White Altar Pair

White holds every color of light within it, which is why so many traditions treat a white candle as the universal candle: light one when you have no other on hand, when an intention does not fit a single color, or when you simply want clean, honest flame on the altar. As a pair, white candles often mark a balanced space, flank a central working, or hold two linked intentions at once. The word Awen names the Welsh idea of poetic and divine inspiration, the spark that flows into a focused mind, which suits candles meant to steady attention and open clear thought.

How To Use

1. Set both candles in heat-safe holders on a stable, heat-safe surface, spaced apart from anything that could catch.
2. Cleanse the space and name your intention plainly, whether that is protection, clarity, or general blessing of the altar.
3. Light both candles and let the paired flames mark the bounds of your working.
4. Keep them in view the whole time they burn and never leave a lit candle unattended.
5. Snuff rather than blow them out when you pause, and let the wax cool fully before you move them.

FAQ

What are these candles used for? They are general-purpose altar candles. White light suits any working, so the pair can support protection, purification, clarity, blessing, or simply hold balanced flame while you practice.

Why two candles instead of one? A pair lets you frame a working between two flames, dedicate one candle to each of two aims, or keep symmetrical light on the altar. You can also burn them one at a time across separate sessions.

Why white? White contains all colors and serves as the universal substitute in candle work. When you lack the exact color a working calls for, a white candle stands in for it.

Why does the color or finish vary? Each candle is hand-poured in small batches, so slight differences in shade and surface are normal and show the candles are genuinely handmade rather than machine-finished.

How should I put them out? Snuff the flame rather than blowing it, keep the candles on a heat-safe surface in view while lit, and let the wax cool fully before handling or moving them.
