Candles are a light source, created with wax and a wick. Natura uses Natura Soy wax in their candles to support their clients and environment. They are used for many reasons, such as religious practices, light, and simply decoration. You can find them in almost any house because they are so popular. They vary in size, which will determine the amount of burning time a candle will typically have.
Many different religions use candles in their practices. In Christianity, they represent the light of God and may be used in worship or on an altar. Buddhists celebrate the Ubon Ratchathani Candle Festival, which is held in Thailand, to commemorate the Buddha’s first sermon. During the twelve days of Hanukkah, people who practice Judaism light a candle on the Menorah each night with a prayer.
Some of them come in different scent variations. These are used in aroma therapy or even just to make a room smell good. They are handy to have around to create a romantic ambiance, or even to provide lighting in power outage caused by a thunderstorm. Candles usually get their scent from adding essential oil or fragrance oil during the creation process.
Decorative candles can be given as gifts for almost any occasion. You may notice that candles sit in many homes and are never burned. This is because some of them are so beautiful and extravagant that the owner would rather keep it around as a classy decoration.
In common tradition, candles are placed on a birthday cake. Each is used to represent the age of the person whose birthday it is, and then blown out while making a wish. The wish is said to come true only if all of them are blown out in one breath. Check out the custom candles on our site. www.candlesbynatura.com.au
