Ostara Candles – Vigil Lights for Spring Equinox Magic
Ostara is
the sabbat with the rabbit!~
Ostara,
also known as the Vernal or Spring Equinox, celebrates the birth of spring, as the
appearance of spring blossoms begin to hail life stirring within the Mother
Earth after a long winter.
Celebrated
in March in the Northern Hemisphere, Ostara is the time to embrace new
beginnings, hopes, and new relationships. The festival of Eostre (pronounced
EES-tra), the lighthearted Anglo-Saxon Goddess, invokes the balance between
light days and dark nights. Associated with the Christian Easter holiday, which
was modeled after the Pagan celebration, Ostara is known as a time of
fertility, abundance, and the birth of new spring animals such as lambs and
rabbits.
On this
sacred day, witches light new fires at sunrise and rejoice as the festivities
begin. Old World Pagan traditions include the ringing of bells, decorating
hard-boiled eggs in an array of colorful spring colors, and blessing seeds for
spring plantings.
Here at
White Magick Alchemy we are always making new sabbat candle offerings. Our
Ostara Vigil Lights Candles are hand poured and witch blessed, each
candle drenched with spring flowers symbolic to Ostara, renewal and the the
appearance of spring. Each Vigil Lights candle burns approx 120 hours.
Made from all natural wax, natural botanicals and pure cotton wick, free from
harmful additives, animal and poly based products. Perfect for ritual use. You
might also want to add a corresponding spell ritual oil to strengthen you in
your magical workings. I am making a beautiful Ostara Violet Crystal Petals Oil
for Ostara 2017, created with essences of fertility, abundance, rebirth and new
beginnings.
My Vigil Lights Ritual Candles are safely poured into a glass
jar and are meant to be burned continuously or for extended periods of time,
thus earning them name “Vigil Lights. They can be extinguished and relit daily
as safety reminds is to never leave burning candles unattended.
