In moon-based practice, the cycle is read as a wheel of intention: the waxing moon for drawing in and building, the full moon for fruition, and the waning moon for releasing and clearing as the light draws down toward dark. The waning moon is the phase practitioners reach for to let go of what no longer serves, to clear and banish, and to turn inward for quiet reflection and guidance. This candle, scented with sage, suits that work: sage has long been burned to cleanse and settle a space. The candle focuses your own intention rather than acting on its own; light it through a waning-moon ritual to name what you are releasing, to clear your space, and to listen for your own inner guidance as the moon wanes.

1. Cleanse and set up. Pass cleansing smoke over the candle and set it on a heat-safe surface where you can sit with it.
2. Set your intention. Name what you are releasing or the guidance you are seeking, and take a few slow breaths to settle.
3. Light it and listen. Light both wicks and let the sage scent fill the space while you reflect, release, or sit quietly with your intention.
4. Burn it safely. Never leave a burning candle unattended, keep hair and fabric clear of the two wicks, and set it on a heat-safe surface away from anything flammable.

What is the waning moon for?

The waning moon is the releasing phase, when the light draws down from full toward new. It is worked for letting go, clearing and banishing, and turning inward for quiet reflection and guidance.

What does it smell like?

Sage, a calming, grounding aroma long burned to cleanse and settle a space, carried here in white coconut wax.

Why two wicks and a wooden container?

The two wicks give an even burn across the wide container, and the natural wooden vessel suits an altar or meditation corner. Together they offer a steady, roughly twelve-hour flame.

How is it different from the waxing moon candle?

This one is for the waning moon and the work of releasing and clearing; the waxing moon candle is for the building phase and new beginnings. They make a natural pair across the lunar cycle.

How do I burn it safely?

Keep hair and fabric clear of the two wicks, set it on a heat-safe surface away from anything flammable, and never leave a burning candle unattended.
