The Garden Gate Banishing Candle

“Always throw spilled salt over your left shoulder, keep rosemary by your garden gate, plant lavender for luck, and fall in love whenever you can.”

Inspired by this beloved piece of witchy wisdom, The Garden Gate Banishing Candle calls upon the protective magic of salt, rosemary, and lavender to guard your threshold and send unwanted energy and any nasty spirits back where they belong.

Standing approximately 3.5” tall, this ritual candle begins with farm-fresh 100% beeswax blended with finely ground yarrow, cedar, and clove:

• Yarrow for spiritual protection and strengthened boundaries
• Cedar for cleansing, protection, and guarding the home
• Clove for driving away negativity and unwanted influences

Once the base candle is formed, it is dipped and rolled in black salt, lavender sprigs, and rosemary sprigs. Black wax is then dripped over the candle to seal the botanicals and intention within.

Its rough botanical texture and heavy black wax drips give it the appearance of something created from an old family spell made for the moments when salt over your shoulder and rosemary at the garden gate need a little extra help.

Use The Garden Gate Banishing Candle during banishing rituals, home clearings, boundary setting, or whenever an unwanted presence has overstayed its invitation. Light it with intention, reclaim your space, and firmly close the gate behind whatever you send away.

Because every candle is handmade, wax drips, botanical placement, texture, and appearance will vary. No two candles will ever be exactly alike.

Fire Safety Warning:

This is a heavily dressed ritual candle containing dried botanicals and salt. These additions can produce a larger, less predictable flame or act as secondary wicks. Burn only on a wide, heat-safe plate or inside a fire-safe cauldron or vessel capable of containing dripping wax and loose materials. Remove loose herbs before lighting whenever possible. Keep away from drafts, pets, children, and flammable objects. Never leave a burning candle unattended. Extinguish it immediately if the flame becomes too large or the botanicals ignite.
