Rune candle HEL – Transformation and new beginnings

The rune candle HEL stands for the conscious letting go of the old and the step into a new phase of life.

Inspired by Norse myths and traditional rituals, this hand-poured rune candle combines a balanced fragrance pyramid with lemongrass, juniper, and myrrh. This creates an atmosphere that promotes calm, clarity, and inner alignment—ideal for your evening rituals, meditation, journaling, or as a loving, meaningful gift. Those seeking rune candles that not only smell but also have symbolic significance will find HEL to be a powerful companion for times of transition.

What makes HEL special

In the Edda, HEL is the guardian of the realm of oblivion. In this archetype, the focus is on clarification: the old may go so that the new can emerge. The HEL candle accompanies precisely this moment – ​​mindfully, unobtrusively, and with a clear fragrance composition that guides you step by step into a state of inner peace. Many clients use a rune candle like HEL to frame their emotional processes, set intentions, and energetically "ventilate" spaces – in the truest sense.

Fragrance composition & effect

• Lemongrass – fresh, clear, slightly sweet: supports concentration, focus and mental ease.
• Juniper – powerful, protective: promotes endurance and helps to release mental “noise.”
• Myrrh – warm, grounding: calms the mind, deepens meditation and invites quiet introspection.

Together, these notes form a harmonious fragrance pyramid that gently guides you from thought to sensation. This is precisely what makes rune candles like HEL so special: They combine mindfulness, symbolism, and aromatherapy into a harmonious ritual object.

Your own little ritual with HEL

1. Light the candle consciously and breathe in and out deeply three times.
2. Speak quietly or think: "I let go of what no longer belongs to me. I open myself to a new beginning."
3. Focus on the flame dance for a few minutes. Afterwards, write down an intention for the coming time.

You can repeat this short ritual daily. Many fans of our rune candles incorporate it every evening as a gentle end to the day.

Application & Care

During the first few uses, let the candle burn until the surface has melted evenly (approximately 2–3 hours). This will prevent tunneling and utilize the entire wax surface—an important tip appreciated by many users of our rune candles . Place the candle on a heat-resistant, flat surface and keep it away from drafts.
