Their presence in folklore shows how ancient cultures intuitively connected nature’s scents to the rhythms of life, using them to celebrate the transition from winter’s stillness to spring’s vibrant energy.
Bergamot – The Oil of Joy and Sunlight
In European folklore, Bergamot is associated with happiness, renewal, and protection. Its bright citrus scent symbolises the return of the sun after winter’s darkness.
Spearmint – The Herb of Vitality and Freshness
Spearmint has long been associated with cleansing and awakening. In ancient Greek and Roman traditions, mint was used in springtime purification rituals to welcome new energy and banish stagnation.
Rosemary – The Herb of Memory and Awakening
Rosemary has been linked to wisdom, protection, and clarity for centuries. It was burned in early spring festivals to cleanse the air and prepare for new growth. Its a symbol of strength, mental clarity, and new ideas.
Lemon – The Purifier and Light-Bringer
The bright, sunny scent of lemon reflects the longer daylight hours and increased energy of spring. Citrus fruits, including lemon, were historically used in springtime cleansing rituals to clear out winter’s stagnation.

Spring Equinox Candle
- Trim the wick to -5mm before burning
- To prevent tunnelling ensure the melt pool reached the edge of the vessel before extinguishing, particularly during the first burn
- Wooden wicks in plant based candles can, on rare occasions, struggle to get going. Be patient with it, if it goes out keep persisting until it takes.
- Keep the candle free from any foreign materials, away from children and pets and on a level heat and fire resistant surface
- Due to the plant wax used and natural essential oils, unlike paraffin wax our wax may develop small sink holes or cracks when setting. This is a quirk of the wax and doesn’t effect the scent or quality of burn
