The Wonder Project :: Candles

5 October 2016 by Kortney

We just marked the Autumnal Equinox–the first day of a new season.  But really we’ve been losing light and moving into darkness since the Solstice.

The Wonder Project

Autumn is the perfect season to welcome a little light.  Candle feels so much bigger than the light they shed.  They warm our spaces; they call us near.  Beeswax candles give an especially rich light and delicate scent.  Here are a few ways to add a little light:

  • You can use the coloring sheet from yesterday’s feast celebration and paste it onto a vigil candle from the grocery store.
  • You can make these lanterns for St Martin’s Day on November 12th.
  • You can pick up a box of tapers and light one each night at dinner before the blessing.

These simple shifts bring awareness and attention–the perfect conditions for wonder!
