Marian apparitions are supernatural appearances by the Virgin Mary, mother of Jesus. Dating back many centuries, several of these appearances have been authenticated by the Catholic Church. One of the first took place in Guadalupe, Mexico in December of 1531.  An Aztec man named Juan Diego communicated with an apparition of Mary over several days.  Mary left behind an image of herself on Juan Diego's cloak, which still hangs in the local church today.

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.
