The Spiritual Significance

A votive is a small candle with a short burn, named for the Latin votum, a vow or prayer. Votives have long been devotional, the little lights set before an altar or a shrine as an offering or a petition, and the form carries that spirit into modern practice. Crystal Journey blesses these as Reiki charged candles, passing the intention of Reiki, an early twentieth-century energy practice, into the candle as the maker's good wish; take that as the spirit of the offering rather than a promise about the body.

Healing is a candle for comfort. To light a candle for healing is to make a wish visible, to sit with someone's mending, or your own, and give the hope somewhere to rest. Purple, the color of the contemplative and spiritual, suits that inward, restful kind of care. This is a devotional candle, a focus for hope, prayer, and calm, and not a medical device, treatment, or substitute for professional care. Light it alongside the care you or your loved ones are receiving, never in place of it.

How To Use

1. Cleanse and set up. Pass cleansing smoke over the votive and set it in a votive holder on a heat-safe surface.
2. Set your wish. Hold the candle and name the person or the hope you are lighting it for.
3. Light it. Light the wick during a quiet moment or prayer, and let it burn while you hold your wish.
4. Burn it safely. Never leave a burning candle unattended, keep it clear of anything flammable, and let the small votive burn out safely in its holder.

Frequently Asked Questions

What's the difference between Healing and the Good Health votive?

Both are herbal votives for wellbeing. Healing is purple, leaning toward comfort, rest, and the prayer for wholeness; the Good Health votive is blue, lit as a wish for health and vitality. Choose by the shade of the wish.

Is this a medical product?

No. It is a devotional candle, a focus for hope, prayer, and calm, and not a medical device, treatment, or substitute for professional care. Light it alongside care, never in place of it.

How do I use a votive?

Set it in a votive holder on a heat-safe surface, cleanse it, name your wish, and light it. Votives are small and burn in a single sitting, suited to one focused intention.

What does Reiki charged mean?

It is the maker's finishing blessing: Crystal Journey passes the intention of Reiki, an energy practice, into the candle. It speaks to the spirit of the candle, not to any effect on the body.

How do I burn it safely?

Keep it in a votive holder on a clear surface away from anything flammable, and never leave a burning candle unattended.
