“Seven Threads” Chakra Candle Set

What is a “chakra”? (Chakras 101—gentle & respectful)

Chakra (from Sanskrit for “wheel”) refers to energy centers used in yogic and tantric traditions. Different lineages describe them differently; the seven-center model (Root → Crown) is the most familiar in the modern West. Think of chakras as focus points along the body—each associated with certain qualities (safety, feeling, action, love, voice, insight, presence).

Our work here is symbolic + practical: we use color, breath, scent, one clear sentence, and a tiny action to tend those qualities. This is not a medical model; it’s a mindful, witchy self-care practice done with respect for the traditions that inspired it.

The seven centers at a glance

• Root (base of spine): safety, stability, body needs
• Sacral (lower belly): emotion, creativity, sensual flow
• Solar Plexus (upper belly): will, boundaries, confidence
• Heart (center chest): compassion, repair, connection
• Throat (throat/jaw): voice, listening, clean truth
• Third Eye (brow): intuition, clarity, pattern-seeing
• Crown (top of head): presence, meaning, spaciousness

How candles help (why this works for everyday brains)

• Color = focus anchor. Your brain latches onto color quickly; it’s a shortcut into the quality you’re calling up.
• Scent = memory & mood cue. Light, consistent fragrance teaches your nervous system a “this is ritual time” signal.
• Breath + affirmation = state shift. Slow exhale + one clean sentence changes how your mind treats the moment.
• Tiny act (CLEAR/CHARGE) = embodiment. Doing one small, physical thing seals the intention and gives your body a win.
• Snuff to close. A clear endpoint tells your brain the work is complete.

Meet the set (color • scent • affirmation • tiny ritual)

Root (red) — eucalyptus + vanilla — I am safe in my body.

Sacral (orange) — sweet orange + vanilla — I allow feeling and let it move through me.

Solar (yellow) — sweet orange + micro peppermint — I act on what matters.

Heart (soft green/blush) — rose + vanilla — I treat myself with kindness.

Throat (blue) — peppermint + eucalyptus + vanilla — My voice is clear and kind.

Third Eye (indigo) — lavender + micro mint + micro eucalyptus — I trust the quiet knowing inside me.

Crown (violet/pearl) — lavender + vanilla — I am part of something larger, and I am safe here.

Each jar ships with two tiny household rituals (one to CLEAR, one to CHARGE). They use normal things: salt water, citrus, tea, white napkin, sticky notes, coin/key, a few sips of water. Sessions take 6–10 minutes.

How to begin (step-by-step)

1. Set the jar on a heat-safe surface; trim wick to ¼″.
2. Light and breathe the color into the area it tends.
3. Speak the affirmation once.
4. Choose CLEAR (release) or CHARGE (energize) and do the tiny act.
5. Snuff to close (don’t blow). Glass gets hot—don’t move while lit.

When to burn (timing that feels like magic)

• Morning: Root + Solar (ground and go).
• Creative windows: Sacral + Throat (flow and voice).
• Evening: Heart, Third Eye, Crown (soften, see, stillness).
• Moon timing: Waxing → CHARGE, Waning/Saturdays → CLEAR. Fridays are sweet for Heart.

Safety & care

Heat-safe surface; away from drafts/fabrics/kids/pets. Jar gets hot; never leave unattended. Snuff to close. Some tunneling is normal with short beeswax sessions—when cool, gently “hug” edges in or do an occasional longer burn. Stop at ~¼″ wax.

Ethics note: Work on your energy first; where others are involved, practice consent. This is supportive self-care, not medical treatment.
