Ex-Voto Sacred Heart Special Edition Candle Black 14oz

The first candle in the Sacred Heart collector series, the Ex-Voto Sacred Heart Edition I candle features notes of unique Resin Wood, Orange Peel. Light as a devotional in affirmation of a blessing or miracle received — a divine "thank you." Contains a blessed Guardian Angel prayer coin. 

An Ex-Voto candle is a devotional offering to a saint or deity in affirmation of a miracle or grace received. It can also help foster the intention of a prayer seeking grace from God. The Sacred Heart is a common image used in an Ex-Voto, symbolizing the pure heart of Jesus and reminding us of His humanity.

Top Note: Resin Wood, Orange Peel
Mid Note: Molasses, Rum
Base Note: Vanilla, Oak Moss

Each candle comes with a prayer to the patron saint, holy oil as part of the wax, and a prayer coin embedded into the candle. Before the first lighting, read out loud the prayer to the patron saint, then light the candle. Once the wax has burned all the way down after many uses, remove the coin at the bottom and keep it in your wallet, purse, or car - or bury it in your yard as a way of blessing the entire household.

14 oz. (10.5 oz. pour), ~80 hour burn time

Measures 4" H x 3" D

When using the candle for the first time, leave it to burn for 2 or 3 hours, until all the wax has become liquid on the surface. Regularly cut the wicks with a wick trimmer (ideal length 3-5 mm). Be sure to center the wicks in the wax after each use for consistent consumption of the wax.
After the wax has been consumed, hand wash with warm water and enjoy as an heirloom for generations.
