Product Overview
A hand-poured soy-paraffin blend candle with a cotton wick, coloured deep red to correspond with the root chakra in the traditional seven-chakra system. Scented with cedarwood and vetiver. Burns for approximately 40 hours in a glass jar. Part of the chakra-themed candle range.
Why This Range Was Inspired
The seven-chakra system describes energy centres in the human body, each associated with specific qualities, colours and functions. This range was created around the idea that colour and scent can each play a part in setting a tone for a period of stillness, without making claims about specific effects. The root chakra is traditionally associated with stability, grounding and a sense of security. The deep red colour and cedarwood and vetiver scent combination was chosen to reflect that theme through atmosphere.

Auro and Co Moment
Cedarwood and vetiver are two of the most grounded scents in the fragrance palette. Vetiver in particular is unusual, extracted from roots rather than flowers or bark, which gives it a soil-like quality unlike anything derived from above-ground plant material. Lit with the deep red colour of the root chakra, the combination is one of the more cohesive pairings in this range.
Complete the Experience
Pairs naturally with other candles from the seven-chakra range, the Chakra Singing Bowl - Root, or a red jasper or hematite tumble stone from the crystals collection.
FAQ
Is the wax the same as the other chakra crystal candles?
No. This candle uses a soy-paraffin blend with a cotton wick, which gives it a longer burn time of approximately 40 hours. The other chakra candles in the range use pure soy wax.
Is this suitable for gifting?
Yes. The chakra set format makes it a considered gift individually or as part of a full seven-candle collection.
How long does 40 hours last in practice?
Across several sessions. Trim the wick to 5mm before each burn and allow the wax to pool to the edges on the first burn.
