Our Samhain Sabbat Taper Set is a perfect addition to your celebration of the New Year. The set contains a pair of 6″ hand-dipped taper candles, in colors to represent the God, and the Goddess energies of this Sabbat.
Samhain marks the third and final harvest of the year. Positioned halfway between the Fall Equinox and the Winter Solstice, this Sabbat focuses on preparation for the coming winter. We gather and bring in the final harvests from the fields, giving thanks for an abundant year, and seeking protection for our families throughout the winter.
We choose to craft our candle representing the God energies of this Sabbat with orange wax. It represents the harvest, the changing of the leaves, and the warmth of the fires around which we will gather over the winter.
We dip our Goddess candle for this Sabbat set in black wax. The black wax represents the darkness of the long nights of the coming winter. The Goddess Persephone returns to the underworld, and in mourning, the earth becomes barren.
Together our candles honor the contrast present at this time of year… the warmth and comfort of a good harvest and warm fires, and the gathering cold and barrenness of the coming winter…life and death, opposites, yet joined.
Use our Samhain Sabbat Taper Set during the days leading up to and following Samhain (Halloween). Celebrate contrast. The warmth and light of the hearth during the cold long nights of winter!
If you prefer, we also offer a God and Goddess taper set, dipped in traditional colors of white to represent the Goddess and gold to represent the God. We also offer our God and Goddess candles as tea lights.
