It took me a while to discern the correct|optimal use of this candle. At first I was burning it to help birth a creative project - albeit one for my day job, so not a creative project of my soul - but I didn't quite feel I was getting the big picture. Now I understand what it wants me to use it for: spirit communication, and enspirited communication. I burn this when I need a heartfelt, loving conversation that overcomes defenses and cuts to the heart of the issue with a deft, light-brining touch. This candle's work is so beautiful that I want to cry when I light it.

Long lasting and multi purpose. Light on Wednesdays to tune in and uplift your energy, or petition for luck, communication, efficiency, fun... it's so good!

I feel like I didn’t *get* this candle at first. I had been using it for devotion to Mercury, but have found it far more functional on a personal, practical level than most candles. Today I’ve been plagued with depression and grief. As it’s Mercury’s day, I figured I’d take a shot at mercury in Gemini materia. I regret nothing. I feel so much better. Lighter, but not too light. Uplifted. Gently moved out of a depressive, grief-ridden state into one of sociability and fun. The candle is still burning now as I write this review, while on FaceTime with a friend! Note: I also anointed the candle with froggy subset.

I reviewed the 2 oz previously but love this particular series so much I bought a full size. Mercury is my timelord this year so I wanted to gift myself a devotional candle as well as a focus for my writing. I don't know if it's just the way this particular election plays with my chart, but I end up with very concrete results with these candles (am currently in the paperwork stage of my first book deal!).

I recently found this Mercury in Gemini to be a lifesaver when I had a major work deadline coming up. I was careful with it because I can easily get over-stimulated and distracted in a way that detracts from productivity. I didn't use it when I needed to do some deep thinking and creative work (though it might lend itself well for that!). But it was the perfect energy for final proofreading, checking for errors, etc. It was uplifting and not too scattered, which was my fear. I also love the orange and dual-tone with the gold flakes on top. Highly recommend! I will likely try to buy a second one when my first one burns out, if it's still in stock.

Love the 2 oz jar. I'm a writer with a Gemini 9H and lighting this when I'm sitting down to work helps me focus *and* have some fun with my work!

I write for a living, and I have (thus far) exclusively purchased candles from S&S's Mercury series for specific book projects. (I previously used a Quicksilver Tongue candle for my first book.) The timing was right for this series and Book 2, so I got the smaller candle. Whereas the QST candle felt like it lightened the load of the revisions I was in, Mercury in Gemini is meeting and supporting my generative energy ~perfectly.~ When burning this candle at my desk, time flies. Words zip. The challenge of diving in and out of different sections (dreaded transitions!) is significantly eased. A must for writers.

I love the candles from S&S and I wish I had the money to get all of them haha. I got the smaller version of this candle and it is beautiful. I light it up when I need to do some writing or creative tasks and things flow so well. It's great for multitasking and getting a lot of things done on your to-do list. Sometimes just having it in the house and looking at it, helps with the communication flow. Very light and bright, a feel-good type of series!

I’ve been working with my very good friend Mercury for a long time now. I feel confident in my ability to clock when they are around. Within moments of lighting my new Mercury candle and starting my prayers…the familiar buzz of the boundary walker was running through my body and crackling in the air. It was a very strong current, which I’ve come to expect from the wizards of sphere and sundry. I’ve been using the candle as an aid with a writing project and the words have been flowing! Thanks for another outstanding addition to my magical tool kit!

This candle is like a burst of joy in my house. I am happy just to own it and look at it. Fun, playful, joyous. I keep it next to me when writing, not even lit up but just to keep it near me - the world feels like a big, fun playground to experiment in.
