SACRED OAK KING Horned Greenwood Lord Soy Pillar Votive Candles w/ Genuine Oak for Summer Solstice, Litha Sabbat, Sacrificial Mysteries

Sacred Oak King Pillar Votives

The Holly King and Oak King are actually the same king who embodies a twin soul, each representing dual aspects of the Horned God. The Oak King, who represents the waxing year and rules from mid winter Solstice (Yule) to Summer Solstice (Litha), is triumphed over by his brother, the Holly King who rules from Litha to Yule, representing the waning year.

In his book The White Goddess, the author Robert Graves proposed that the mythic figure of the Holly King represents one half of the year, while the other is personified by his counterpart and adversary the Oak King: the two battle endlessly as the seasons turn. At Midsummer the Oak King is at the height of his strength, while the Holly King is at his weakest. The Holly King begins to regain his power, and at the Autumn Equinox, the tables finally turn in the Holly King's favor; he later vanquishes the Oak King at Yule. Graves identified a number of paired hero-figures which he believes are variants of this myth, including Lleu Llaw Gyffes and Gronw Pebr, Gwyn and Gwythr, Lugh and Balor, Balan and Balin, Gawain and the Green Knight, the robin and the wren, and even Jesus and John the Baptist.

The Holly King, also known as the Horned Lord of the Winterwood and Father Time, embodies occult knowledge and ancient mysteries.

The Oak King, also known as the Horned Lord of the Greenwood and a fertility god, embodies light, growth and expansion.

Germanic mythology links holly to Thor, god of thunder and lightning. A protective herb, the tiny spines along holly's leaves acts as electrical conductors to channel lightning strikes into the ground, protecting the tree and nearby objects. The Germanic counterpart to the Oak King is Frey.

The Celtic Ogham letter Tinne is associated with the Holly Tree, mastery, technical skill, magical technologies, the creative force, the forge, artistry, and immediacy in time. 'Of all the trees that are in the wood, the Holly bears the crown.'

The Celtic letter Duir is associated with the Oak Tree, strength, stability, firmness, endurance, leadership, truth, justice, foundations, sacred places, thresholds and gateways. The Horned God as Lord of the Greenwood wears a crown made of oak leaves and acorns and is often depicted as the oaken faced Green Man.

To honor the Sacred King as OAK KING, handcrafted with premium certified kosher soy wax and pure cotton wick, OAK KING Horned Lord oak brown soy pillar votives are magically charged with genuine White oak bark and generously scented with magical Vanilla Oak.

This listing is for a set of 3 straight pillar soy votives.

Each votive measures 2" tall.

Comes beautifully packaged.

Midsummer Balefire Liquid Light

י"ח אייר תשס"ט
Annwn 19

This exquisite ritual oil for Midsummer Litha Sabbat celebrations is a blend of Damask Rose and Sandalwood essential oils in a certified organic Safflower base oil. Handcrafted during the planetary hour of Saturn, Midsummer Balefire Liquid Light is charged with the energies of a dark blue Lapis Lazuli gemstone, Red Rose petals and Chamomile flowers (both flowers are certified organic botanicals). You can easily see the Lapis Lazuli gemstone in the bottle in the third photo (at WITCHCRAFTS).

This unique blend (embraced by the arms of the Fae and by the awesome spirit of this tree-bush) brilliantly comes together to form liquid light, revealed like a splendid rainbow weave of crystal colors in the bottle. Truly beautiful!

The two oils (Damask Rose and Sandalwood) and the two flowers (Red Rose and Chamomile) each magically correspond to elemental water, while the Sun is the planetary correspondence of the Chamomile flowers. In Midsummer Balefire Liquid Light Ritual Oil, fire (understanding) in the form of liquid light (conscious awareness) is born through water (wisdom) with the power of the Sun waxing toward the summer solstice.

Moon & Sun Sabbats

ט"ו בתמוז תשס"ז

There are 8 festival sabbats (distinct from full and new moon esbats) in the witch's wheel of the year - 4 moon sabbats and 4 sun sabbats.

Moon Sabbats

The moon sabbats are called fire festivals, and can occur anywhere between 29-59 days following the preceding solstice or equinox. The 4 moon sabbats are Samhain (Feast of the Dead, Feast of Apples), Imbolg (Feast of Torches, Feast of Waxing Light), Beltane (Bonfire of Light, Celtic Lag B'Omer, Cetsamhain-opposite Samhain), and Lughnasadh (Feast of Bread, Lammas).

Sun Sabbats

The sun sabbats refer to the quarter days (solstices and equinoxes), and are based on the astronomical position of the sun. The 4 sun sabbats are Mabon (autumn equinox), Yule (winter solstice), Ostara (spring equinox), and Litha (summer solstice).
