PRODUCT DETAILS
‘Long light has lingered here, Earth still is warm,
Deepening shadows lost by the dawn.
Long darkness rising here, though heat lingers on,
Twist of the Equinox – Mabon has come.’
Mabon is the second harvest, a sacred pause as the wheel turns toward darkness once more. It is the autumn equinox, when day and night stand in perfect balance, and a time to honour gratitude, reflection, and release. We gather in, take stock of what we’ve sown, and give thanks for both abundance and lessons learned.
Rooted in ancient equinox traditions, Mabon is a celebration of nourishment, both physical and spiritual. Apples are picked, wine is poured, and the air turns crisp with the scent of hearth and home. As the light begins to wane, we’re invited to return inward, to restore balance, and to prepare gently for the darker half of the year.
Celebrate the turning of the wheel with our richly warming sabbat candle inspired by the autumn harvest.
This scent captures the heart of a harvest kitchen: tart cranberry and golden poppyseed folded into buttery loaves, fresh from the oven. Sweet, spiced, and just a little tangy, this scent fills your space with the scent of abundance, gratitude, and the gentle comfort of coming home.
This year’s Mabon scent conjures golden leaves underfoot, laden tables, spiced bread cooling on a wooden board, and the quiet magic of a slow, thoughtful dusk.
The candle is topped with brecciated jasper, a stone prized for its grounding properties and ability to promote emotional stability, mental clarity, and resilience, perfect for a time of inner reflection and energetic rebalancing.
Red clover leaves have also been added, long used as a protective herb and symbol of prosperity. Together, they support you in releasing what no longer serves, while holding space for gratitude, insight, and transformation.
Poured in a stunning reusable glass jar and finished with a wooden lid, this delicious scent will carry you though the turning of summer to fall.
Each candle has been lovingly cast in pure vegan friendly, eco soy wax and features a crackling wood wick!
This candle has been poured with 300ml of pure soy wax and will burn for approx 55 hours.
