The seven-pointed star, often called the Fairy Star or Elven Star, is a symbol of the fae and of the Otherworld, used in Faery and modern witchcraft traditions. Its seven points have been read as the seven directions, the seven classical planets, or the gateways to the fairy realm. As an altar piece it suits faery work, dream work, and any practice that honors the unseen folk.

1. Set the holder on a flat, heat-safe surface, away from anything flammable.

3. Seat a taper candle in the holder and light it.
