Ravens Hearth Mercury Retrograde Candle

Motor City HooDoo Candles

Size: 2″ x 4″

These candles are made using Hoo Doo, an African based folk magic. Hoo Doo is a very practical and root based magic that digs deep into our own core self. The results are fast, profound and healing. Each candle has a unique spell for you to start from, but adding your own words to make them personal is encouraged.

Once you light your candle, the intention will be set to work with universal power and energy for your highest good.

These candles burn for 40 hours. Remove all packaging before lighting and never leave a burning candle unattended.
