Asclepius Candles
Talismanic Candles are poured and begin to set during their requisite election window, as these were during Sphere + Sundry’s 2023 Ras Alhague election, in dedication to Asclepius.
Consecrated organic herbal blend was ground and sprinkled into each vessel before wax was poured; soy wax for the jars, and organic beeswax for the pillars.
Jar candles are topped with carnelian, rose of jericho, frankincense resin, and ritually harvested cypress. They work beautifully burning at the bedside of those in need of healing, or shining their light on photographs to heal 3rd parties from a distance.
Pillar candles are best suited to works of classical candle magic, wherein names, prayers, images, and sigils can be carved into the sides. From there, dressing with Anointing Oils / Perfumes and Powders (and Incenses) is welcome but optional, since all Sphere + Sundry candles come pre-enchanted by their method of ritual creation.
Such a practice does, however, invite opportunities to combine influences toward very specific ends, such as dressing an Asclepius pillar with Venus materia to resolve issues of self-love and romantic insecurity, or Jupiter to heal ‘scarcity mentality’ and religious wounds. Regulus can be added for resolving issues with authority, self-promotion/ being seen, and patrilineal resolution. Antares for overcoming self-sabotage and building healthy shen. Mercury in Virgo for learning disabilities, impairments to executive function, and speech impediments, or Mercury in Gemini for healing the inner child. Deneb Algedi for increasing protection and support during times of vulnerability.
The sky is *truly* the limit! I am sure that the welcoming Spirits of the Client Community would be happy to help workshop combinations, should you want inspiration and input.
Burn Asclepius candles while issuing prayers for healing and transformation, or as an offering to compatible Spirits.
Meditate upon the flame, and use it to ignite sigils and petition papers.

QC Notice: The wrong size wicks were used on the 3″ and 6″ pillars for this series, resulting in tunneling and poor burn-ability. We have taken down the remaining stock and will be going through the process of double wicking to compensate. If you already have one and would like a refund, please write into the support portal. Apologies and thank you for understanding!

This candle has helped process lingering grief that loves to resurface during eclipse seasons. It helps me recover from whatever mom guilt has plagued me the most recently. Asclepius not only brings you into the present moment to help you think of alternative solutions, They give you ideas that you wouldn't be able to come up with on your own hehe
I got the candle for my ritual bath but I also used it to ask Asclepius for help with choosing a good doctor. The appointment went so smoothly and The doctor confirmed there was nothing to worry about. The candle was an investment but I have no regrets!
I got this candle specifically to work healing magic on a family member that was struggling with medical issues but wasn't getting the help they needed from their providers. This candle worked incredibly well - they were able to get a new referral and the issue was addressed completely. I printed a picture of the person and wrote a petition on the back, placed it under the candle while it burned and prayed for their healing. This experience confirmed for me that the S+ candles are probably among the most potent of all offerings from any series. I also really like the slim vigils as they tend to burn nice and even compared to the pillars, just make sure to keep the wick trimmed!
IME, candles tend to be the most powerful offering for any series. This candle is no different, but it functions a bit different. I feel it dispersing and cleansing the stuck/mucky energy in the room when it’s lit. Aside from that, I don’t often feel the type of energetic shift I get from other series’ candles. Eg, butter ocean makes me feel soooooo chill the entire time it’s lit, Antares is motivating the entire time it’s lit. While the shift with this candle is different, it’s very much appropriate for what it is. This is Asclepius. Asclepius doesn’t really smack you in the face with his influence. He gently assists and guides. I get that impact with everything from this series and it is amplified much more with the candle. An added bonus is if the frankincense on top is in the right place, it will release scent! If you prefer not to have any scent, you can just move it. I got the giant version of this candle and I have NO regrets. I’m almost halfway through and I keep thinking I should stock up on extras for when I inevitably get through the whole thing.
IIRC, my Asclepius candle was the first S+S magnum candle that I invested in. My only regret is that I did not invest in two of the magnums when they were still available! It is a lot of candle and might be expensive for most, so I will share that I entered into back-to-back profection years with a lot of health/wellness support needs. I did and still do see it as an investment as it has provided warmth and presence through many recoveries and restful naps since. It has also been a light for prayers for myself and others as they wrestle with their own health challenges, victories, gains, and grief. Some of the most profound breakthroughs I've had in terms of mental wellness coincide with meditation with this candle lit.
Although the S+S candles really don't have a scent in the same way that typical candles on the market do, I still think there is a soft sweetness to this one that I don't necessarily smell in any other S+S candles. Sometimes, it has been difficult to blow this one out for the night, because it just makes the atmosphere feel so good and peaceful.
I love using this candle when I do the full ritual bath. It feels like such a supportive glow there with me.
I have other items from this series but use the candle for bigger health issues. I used this candle and the oil during a time when I had to pack a wound and had a hard time doing it because of the pain. The packing is supposed to help keep fluid from building. Since I was doing a bad job I asked for help with keeping the healing process smooth and no fluid. In the end everything was fine, thank goodness I didn't have to go in to deal with any complications!
This candle feels especially strong compared to some of the other materia, which I really appreciate because my health issues have felt a little resistant to being affected by materia lately. When I burn this candle, it helps me understand what feeling well (enough) in my body feels like for the duration of the time, and is such a relief in my constant up and down with health stuff. I'm wondering what the longer term effects of this might look like if I engage in a more intentional/devotional way.
I use this candle to represent Asclepius on my altar, and light it whenever healing or cleansing work is done. Frequent overseer of ritual baths. When family members had major health issues over the past year, lighting this candle brought hope, and even some major recoveries! Hard to say if they would have recovered anyway, but it's nice to feel as though the God of Medicine is on your side.
The candle itself has very little scent.
This candle has the nicest, most soothing energy and just lighting it has a wonderfully calming effect. I've used it with great results in magical works dedicated toward health and healing, to light sigils etc. as well as to meditate or to offer prayers and/or thanks to Asclepius. It's honestly also just nice to bask in its warm healthy glow!
My favorite candle ever. I love lighting the candle and connecting with Asclepius. This candle has helped me connect with Asclepius on a much deeper level.
Despite the pricey investment, I was drawn to the magnum size and bought it right away. I've engaged with every series iteration of Asclepius, all have been powerful ... and this was the first one with such a large candle. I didn't immediately understand why I had to have it, but I"m glad I did.
Once I was diagnosed with breast cancer, I was grateful to have a sturdier form of engagement - each month when the moon passes through Sag, I honor this relationship with prayers or offerings or simple acknowledgment. I won't know the results for months, but the growing connection brings me hope, peace, and focus.
This is a gorgeous candle! I love just looking at it and the vibe is extremely grounded and safe. I’ve kept it close by in times of sickness or to petition on the part of others with great success. I would actually say this candle is the best 3rd party magic assist in the catalogue—a bold statement to be sure, but truly it’s just that good.
Truly a candle that wipes away pains. As it burns, one would feel like someone is in the room watching and providing. It is very calming and sleep inviting. What is amazing is when you wake up, you wake up relieved and, unless in severe cases, waking up with no pain.
I am immuno-compromised, and I have small children. The last few years have been hellish for me with the rotation of illnesses, the caregiving, and my own dragged-out illnesses. All of that to say: These Asclepius candles are now a staple in my house. I bought the small vigil candle about a month ago, and as soon as one of my kids started getting sick, I burned the candle with a photo of her shining in its light. As the illness progressed to my older kiddo, and then to me, I made a nightly ritual of burning the candle with a photo of our family. The magic of Asclepius has always felt a bit subtle to me: it's not like there are suddenly fast fixes or cures, but there is instead a sense that I am not alone; that illness is not a reason to panic; and that we will be okay. I've had flashes of insight come to me that I know are a result of working with Asclepius. This candle has *presence*: it quietly bears witness and sends a reassuring pulse of energy back to you. I pray to this candle and I feel heard. I'm so grateful for this magic.
Have enjoyed it's calming and healing effects, and have had particularly good results with it when the moon is in Sagittarius and layered with the oil. In general, it provides a quiet but clear comfort when lit and feels gently steadying and supportive.
Candles are one of the forms of materia I would probably never choose on my own but am delighted to own. I have this candle because I purchased an altar box set and I *love* it. First of all it's just stunningly gorgeous; it's easy to go buy a candle, it's a lot harder to go buy a gorgeous MAGICAL candle that infuses the room with good vibes and healing energy. It works like a charm on the bedside of family members not feeling well and even my cats like to go hang out with it. Highly recommend!
Creates a veil of quiet, serene healing energy around it. I really don't have a more artful way of describing it. Few things leave me at a loss for words, but this inspires stillness and silence like nothing else. I love it.
I cannot overstate the life saving and life changing benefits my loved one has received from Asclepius through this beautiful candle and the healing light it casts. We have experienced such a positive shift in circumstances, trajectory of the situation, treatment options, hope and optimism that I feel like I'm now living in a different reality
Very soon after I started using this candle the hidden root cause of the illness and an appropriate treatment was discovered
I am eternally grateful.💜💜 🙏💜💜
just amazing, I am usisng this candle while I do online consults in medical astrology and it has been a great assett to add to the sessions. I actually had an experience where I lit the candle (jut today) and had 4 or 5 bee's come into the room and cirle the candle and my desk, it was a profound energy that come with them into the room. Super excited to see what it may manifest or reveal.
Wonderful, calming, healing, big presence even without lighting it up. I enjoy having this candle in my room. I light it up at least once a month when the Moon is in Sagittarius, and as needed. Healing happens in many surprising ways.
