WINTER SOLSTICE Charcoal Incense Sticks and Cones - Yule Fragrance of Pine and Bayberry for Pagan, Wiccan, Witchy Offering, and Ritual

Winter Solstice - NEW Seasonal Fragrance for Yuletide Cheer

Get ready to indulge in our new winter holiday fragrance, Winter Solstice. This exquisite scent captures the essence of a winter's night chill with its top notes of pine and bayberry. The heart of this scent is a rich, resinous pine, and it's grounded with an herbal, woody base of cedar, rosemary, and oakmoss, along with notes of sweet eucalyptus and mistletoe. Give yourself or someone special the gift of pure, mystical fragrance with our incense cones and sticks.

As we approach the Winter Solstice on December 21 or 22 in the Northern Hemisphere, we are reminded of the power of nature and the cycles of life. This solar holiday marks the longest night of the year, as the earth tilts farthest away from the sun. It’s a time of great significance for many pagan traditions, who honor the halfway point of winter and the rebirth of the sun.

One such tradition is Yule, originally celebrated by the Norse and Scandinavian peoples. Yule was a time of joy and celebration, lasting anywhere from two months to 12 days, depending on the source. Today, many Pagans still celebrate Yule on the day of the Winter Solstice, exchanging gifts, gathering with loved ones, and reflecting on the past and future.

For Pagans, Yule is a time of transformation and new beginnings. It’s a chance to let go of unwanted habits and embrace creativity and growth. The symbols of Yule – evergreens, the Yule Log, a Yule tree, mistletoe, holly, wreaths, and bells – represent this rebirth and renewal. The colors of Yule – white, green, red, gold, and silver – are a reminder of the beauty and diversity of nature, and the hope that comes with new beginnings.

As we celebrate the Winter Solstice and Yule, let us remember the power of nature and the importance of honoring the cycles of life. Let us embrace the opportunity for growth and transformation, and let us welcome the return of the sun with open hearts and minds.

Incense Cone Burning Instructions:

🌛 Prepare a place to set your incense cone after it is lit. You should pick a fireproof surface that won't be damaged by heat or direct fire, such as an incense burner specially made for burning incense cones, foil on top of the sand in a large clay or metal container, Anything that's heat-resistant and will hold the cone is a suitable container. Make sure you place the container away from anything flammable, such as curtains, lampshades, or paper.

🌛 Light the smallest end of the incense cone at the tip. You will want to keep the end lit with a flame on it for 30-60 seconds or until the tip of the cone glows orange *all the way across it* when the flame is extinguished. You want a nice, solid orange glow at the top of the incense cone - once you've established a nice solid orange glow on the top, extinguish the flame by blowing it out or using a candle snuffer if you prefer. If it is not lit thoroughly before extinguishing the flame, your cone will not burn; it will just go out, so keep it lit with a flame until you achieve that solid orange coal burning.

🌛 After getting the top lit with a strong orange burn and then extinguishing the flame itself, set the incense cone down on your prepared surface or incense cone burner and enjoy!

All incense will produce smoke, but our incense smoke is only pure fragrance, unlike most incense, which is made mostly of wood filler. Without wood filler, you get pure fragrance!
