Story: Aroha Pounamu candle is a part of our sacred stone + crystal collection and an extension of our original Aroha Candle with a sacred element from Papatūānuku (Earth mother).

Māori have strong spiritual bonds to the land, Papatūānuku, the Earth Mother. She provides unity and identity to her people and sustains them. Māori consider that Papatūānuku sustains all life, and that we are spiritually connected to her.

Aroha Pounamu Candle reminds us to look after our Earth mother and regard her as sacred. The imbedded taonga (sacred, treasured natural resource) held within this candle is a gift to remind us to  nourish and care for our Earth mother. 

How to use: Light Aroha Candles with intention, allow the fragrance to gently awaken and fill your environment with the intended energy. Keep the candle lit for at least 2 hours on the first burn and put the candle out with the lid, with gratitude.
