This candle is more than just a simple light. It is a symbol of our grief, our love, and our connection. With a selected blend of plants, we create a space where we can mourn, with all the emotions that come with it. May this memorial light bring us comfort and remind us that love is immortal and endures beyond death.
The rose symbolizes the heartfelt connection that remains even in grief.
Angelica and goldenrod are luminous companions in this difficult time.
Mugwort offers us protection, and red clover accompanies us in times of hopelessness.
The delicate and enveloping scent of rose geranium has a harmonizing effect.

Your memory remains
Gentle as a dandelion in the wind,
so was your spirit, so free and swift.
Now you sail away, far across the land,
Your traces in our hearts, deeply etched.
Time passes, but your soul remains,
like the seeds of the dandelion, widely scattered and ripened.
In our thoughts and in our being,
you will always be with us.
********************************************
The effect of the Allgäu medicinal herb candle is similar to fine incense. Transformed by fire, the information and vibration of the extracts, essential oils, essences, and tinctures are released and support our own spiritual intentions and mental aspirations.
The Allgäu medicinal herb candle is not a scented candle in the classic sense. Each candle contains pure essential oils, which also give the candles an interesting aroma - however, the subtle scent does not intensify when burning. Experience shows that the production of candles that primarily develop their scent after lighting is only possible with the use of synthetic substances - the medicinal herb candle is a pure natural product.
Burn-down: All candles in glass tend to flicker due to a chimney effect. If soot deposits occur, you can easily remove them with a damp cloth. To reuse the glass after the burning time, wait until the candle extinguishes by itself and remove the wick holder and any wax residues with hot water. Grease and soot stains can be removed with dish soap or in the dishwasher. Melt out wax residues beforehand with hot water: Pour hot (not boiling!) water into the glass - the wax residues collect on the surface and can be removed as a "lid". The still liquid wax-water mixture does not belong down the drain!
The burning time of candles in glass is up to 60 hours - depending on the ambient temperature, wick care, and burning duration at a time. For the wax in the glass to be completely consumed, the candle should always burn until the entire wax pool is liquid and wax residues from the glass sides have melted. You can trim the wick to approx. 5 to 8 mm before lighting and make sure no crumbs remain in the candle.

Ritual candles give you time for your small daily ritual. Time for the essential. Take a moment of peace, light the flame, listen within. Hand over your wishes to the candle flame - it represents the transforming power of fire. Let your wishes move on peacefully and enjoy the light before you set off back into the everyday world :)
********************************************
Candles work with the element of fire; never leave them burning unattended and only use fireproof surfaces for them. For the initial burn, it's best to let the candle burn until the upper wax pool has melted to the rim once. If the candle ever produces soot, it is advisable to trim the wick before lighting (carefully cut off the top, leaving at least 8 mm).
