Elegua-Orishas red / black 7 day candle

Rooted in Heritage. Elegua holds a foundational place in Santería/Lucumí devotional practice, and this candle follows the classic red-and-black format used across generations of practice.

Made for Daily Ritual. Unlike a decorative candle, this vigil is built to be lit, extinguished, and relit across seven days, so the beeswax blend and cotton wick are chosen for a clean, low-soot, repeatable burn.

Honest Framing. This candle is offered as a devotional focus for prayer and reflection on opportunity and open pathways — it does not guarantee any specific outcome. Browse more devotional options in our Spiritual Candles collection.

A Complete Vigil. Everything needed for a structured seven-day practice — glass jar, wick, and wax — arrives ready to light, with no additional preparation required.

Crossroads Focus. Elegua is customarily approached first in Santería/Lucumí practice as the orisha of the crossroads, and this candle gives devotees a steady point of focus for petitions asking for clarity at a turning point.

Path-Opening Ritual. The red-and-black pairing is the classic color combination linked to Elegua, offered here as a focus for prayer asking that obstacles be cleared and new paths made visible — not as a guarantee of any specific outcome.

All-Natural Beeswax. An all-natural beeswax blend burns slowly and evenly with minimal soot, holding a steady flame across repeated daily lighting sessions.

Full Week of Devotion. Sized and formulated for a full seven-day vigil, giving practitioners room to return to the same petition and intention every day of the working.

Set Your Intention. Before lighting, write out your petition or simply take a moment to focus your thoughts on the crossroads or opportunity you're praying about.

Light With Care. Place the candle on a heat-safe, stable surface away from drafts, then light the wick.

Return Daily. Burn in supervised sessions each day, refocusing on your petition each time you relight the candle.

Close the Vigil. On day seven, snuff (do not blow out) the candle and give thanks before disposing of any remnants respectfully.

Wax Blend. This candle is made from an all-natural beeswax blend with a naturally honeyed scent, set with a cotton wick in a standard glass vigil jar.

Composition Note. Exact composition can vary slightly by production batch; contact us before use if you have a specific allergy or sensitivity concern.

Storage. Store the candle upright, away from direct sunlight and heat sources, to protect the wax and preserve its natural aroma.

General Guidance. Devotional candles like this one are generally best used within 12–24 months of purchase for the most consistent burn quality; this is general guidance, not a guarantee, and any date marked on the packaging takes precedence.

Open Flame. This is an open-flame candle in a glass jar — never leave it burning unattended, and always keep it on a stable, heat-resistant surface away from curtains, papers, and other flammable materials.

Children & Pets. Keep lit and unlit candles alike out of reach of children and pets.

Handle With Care. The glass jar can become hot during use; allow it to cool completely before moving or handling, and discontinue use if the glass cracks, chips, or overheats.

Caution. For external, decorative, and devotional candle use only. This is an open-flame product — never leave it burning unattended, and keep it well away from children, pets, curtains, and other flammable materials at all times.
