The Spiritual Significance

Santa Muerte, Our Lady of Holy Death, is a Mexican folk saint venerated by millions across Mexico and beyond: a skeletal female figure, often robed and carrying a scythe and a globe, honored as a protector, a patron of those who ask her help, and a companion who does not turn anyone away. In her devotion, the color of a candle names its intention. Gold, like the golden robe, belongs to work for money, prosperity, success, and abundance, the petitions for a steadier livelihood and an opening of fortune. A figure candle in her image is both an offering and a focus, lit while a devotee speaks a petition or gives thanks. The candle focuses your own devotion and intention rather than acting on its own, and it is treated with the respect owed to a sacred image; many keep a small offering of water, flowers, or coin beside it.

How To Use

1. Set up with respect. Place the figure on a heat-safe dish on a stable surface or altar, ideally with a small offering nearby.
2. Set your intention. Speak your petition or thanks to Santa Muerte, naming the prosperity or help you are asking for.
3. Light it and attend it. Light the wick and let the figure candle burn as an offering, keeping watch over it.
4. Burn it safely. Never leave a burning candle unattended, keep it clear of anything flammable, and burn it on a heat-safe dish, since a figure candle pools and spreads as it melts.
