Serpent Pillar in Gold Beeswax

Serpents are symbols of immortality, renewal, rebirth and fertility. In ancient Egypt the symbol of the ouroboros can be found on the walls of tombs and it is a depiction of eternity and the never ending cycle of life, death and rebirth. At the Apotheca we view the serpent as the mythological giver of knowledge to the divine feminine and as such a feminist symbol. Adorn your altar with this beautiful serpent candle and harness your power.

Our serpent spell candle is hand poured in sunny southern California from 100% pure California beeswax, ethically sourced from local apiaries. This candle comes with a natural honey fragrance from the beeswax, but otherwise is fragrance free. Our beeswax candles use 100% cotton wicks with no hard metals. This beeswax candle is dye free and comes in the natural color of beeswax with a fine sheen of gold and black mica. The mica we use is sustainably sourced and mined without child labor from mines in the United States and Europe. All of our candles are crafted with intention for the discerning witch. We are a disposable plastic free company and our shipping materials, including our tape, is plastic free and biodegradable.

All candles burn at varying rates and there are several factors which can alter burn times such as: size of wick, air flow in the environment, size and shape of candle, presence or absence of fragrance, and oxygen level of the environment.

Burn Times: Beeswax Burns at a rate of 4-5 hours per ounce of wax.

Vespertide Apotheca is owned and operated by two women who practice traditional witchcraft and spiritualism. These candles can serve as a blank canvas for your spiritual practice as they are neither dressed nor charged.

NOTE - If a company is claiming "Organic Beeswax", then it is from a foreign source. Organic beeswax rarely exists in the United States, as there is no way to ensure where a bee collects it pollen. Foreign sellers will falsely list beeswax as "organic" because no testing or proof is required by the US government for imported items labeled "organic" (most imported beeswax is from China). Our wax is produced from local California hives and from trusted apiaries.

Warning: All figural candles will drip wax and run, as there is no containment apparatus, Please make sure to burn the candle in a wax/fireproof container on a heat resistant surface. Burn within sight. Keep away from flammables. Keep away from children. Trim wick to ¼" before lighting. Do not burn more than 3-4 hours.
