Harvest of Shadows

Transformation • Ancestral Remembrance • Autumnal Magic

Harvest of Shadows is a liminal ritual candle for the turning times; when the year leans toward darkness, the veil thins, and decay becomes the doorway to renewal. Crafted for witches who work with endings, composting, and ancestral blessing, this candle holds the paradox of harvest: what dies feeds what comes next.

It opens with spiced ginger and nutmeg like twilight over stubbled fields, moves into pumpkin and caramel for the sweetness of stored harvest, and settles into vanilla bean and buttermilk hearth warmth, kitchen witchery, and remembrance. Each candle is dressed with cheese tree fruit, real moss, patchouli, cinnamon, clove buds, and copper + gold mica to echo soil, rot, and glimmering spirit-light.

Magical Uses & Benefits

• Shadow rites & “composting” old patterns

• Ancestral veneration and seasonal altars

• Home and hearth protection at the darkening of the year

• Renewal through endings (grief → growth)

• Fertility/abundance magic tied to land and seasons

How to Use

1. Burn at Mabon, Samhain, or any personal “harvest” rite
2. Light on ancestor altars with offerings of bread, honey, or milk
