Opening the Heart, One Flame at a Time
I stock Crystal Journey’s Heart Chakra Votive because it does what a good candle should: it gives you something to focus on. Scented with an essential oil blend and hand-crafted in New England from highly refined food-grade waxes with cotton and paper wicks, it’s built for intention-setting, not just ambiance.
The Heart Chakra, known in Sanskrit as Anahata, is the 4th of the seven primary chakras in the Hindu tantric tradition. Seated at the center of the chest, it’s the energetic bridge between the lower three chakras, which deal with survival and will, and the upper three, which carry communication, intuition, and spiritual connection. When Anahata is in balance, you’re able to give and receive love without losing yourself in the process.
You can use this candle for heart-opening meditation, grief work, self-compassion practice, forgiveness rituals, or any time you’re doing Reiki work on the heart center. It pairs well with rose quartz, green aventurine, or any stone aligned with love and emotional healing. If you’re building a broader chakra practice, browse my chakra candle collection or explore the full chakra and Reiki product line for tools that support the whole system.
How to Use a Heart Chakra Votive Candle
Use this votive to support heart chakra meditation, forgiveness work, or emotional healing rituals.
- Set up your votive and settle in
Place your Heart Chakra votive in a holder and light it in a quiet space. Sit comfortably, close your eyes, and bring your attention to the center of your chest. Breathe slowly and let the candle anchor your awareness to Anahata.
- Anchor your intention before the flame
Hold a clear intention before you begin, such as releasing grief, opening to love, or forgiving yourself or another person. Speak it aloud or write it on paper and place it beneath the holder while the candle burns.
- Close and return with care
Let the candle burn in full view during your session. When you feel complete, snuff the flame rather than blowing it out. Return to the candle in future sessions to deepen the same intention or start a new one.
The Tarot Fellow Standard
Crystal Journey has been making hand-poured candles in New England for decades. I carry their line because the consistency is real: the wicks burn clean, the scents are essential oil based rather than synthetic fragrance dumps, and the candles don’t tunnel or drown. The informational card that comes with each chakra votive is a genuine touch, not filler. It gives newer practitioners something to read and return to.
One practical note: this is a votive candle, which means it needs a holder. It won’t stand on its own and will pool wax quickly without one. A glass votive cup is the most straightforward option. You’ll find votive holders in my chakra candle section. The green color is bright and saturated, so expect it to look vivid on your altar.
