Elemental Water Magic and the Moon’s Influence
In the Western magical tradition, the element of water governs the emotional realm, the unconscious mind, intuition, dreams, and psychic receptivity. Across Wiccan, Hermetic, and folk magic systems, working with water energy means engaging the Moon’s influence, the tides of feeling, and the deep currents of the inner life. Lailokens Awen’s Water candle is formulated specifically for practitioners who want to strengthen their connection to elemental water, whether for emotional healing, deepening lunar practice, or opening intuitive channels before divination.
Shawn Hebert, the Druid Hermeticist, Clinical Aromatherapist, and Herbalist behind Lailokens Awen, crafts each candle using pure Canadian beeswax and organic essential oils selected for their elemental correspondences. The blend for this Water candle draws on oils with lunar, cooling, and emotionally opening associations, with creation timed to the appropriate planetary day and hour to embed astrological alignment directly into the wax. The result is a candle that functions as both a ritual tool and a form of aromatherapy for the emotional body.
How Practitioners Use Water Element Candles
Lighting a Water candle before tarot, scrying, or any form of divination is a widely used technique for opening the intuitive mind and quieting the analytical left-brain chatter that can interfere with receptive practice. In Wiccan elemental ritual, the Water candle belongs in the west quarter of the circle, representing the setting sun, autumn, and the realm of emotion and memory. It also pairs naturally with a chalice of water, a moonstone, selenite, or a blue calcite on the altar.
Because these candles are hand-rolled, slight color variations between batches are normal and expected, a natural quality that reflects the handmade character of the product. Beeswax itself carries a faint honey scent that complements the water-associated essential oils without competing with them. The approximately 4-hour burn time makes a single candle suitable for several ritual sessions. For a deeper exploration of ritual supplies, browse my full Lailokens Awen candle collection.
How to Use a Lailokens Awen Water Ritual Candle
How to incorporate the Lailokens Awen Water candle into elemental ritual, divination prep, and lunar magic.
- Set the Water Quarter or Lunar Altar
Place this candle in the west quarter of your ritual circle or on a lunar altar with a chalice of water, moonstone, and blue altar cloth. Light it during a waning or full moon to align with water’s emotional and intuitive peak energy.
- Open Your Intuition Before Divination
Light the candle 5 to 10 minutes before any tarot reading, scrying session, or dream journaling practice. Breathe slowly and allow the water-element oil blend to shift your mental state from analytical to receptive before you begin.
- Use for Emotional Healing or Moon Rituals
For emotional processing, light the candle while journaling about feelings or relationships. In a full moon ritual, burn it alongside a bowl of water with a moonstone placed inside. Extinguish safely with a snuffer when the session ends.
The Tarot Fellow Standard
I stock the full Lailokens Awen line because Shawn Hebert’s approach to candle-making is genuinely different from mass-produced ritual candles: each piece is hand-rolled from pure Canadian beeswax, scented with organic essential oils chosen for their elemental and astrological correspondence, and crafted at a specific planetary hour. Most competitors carry generic beeswax candles without this level of intentional formulation. The Water candle specifically fills a real need for practitioners who want a dedicated elemental tool rather than a general-purpose candle recolored blue. The approximately 4-hour burn time and compact size make it practical for regular ritual use without waste.
