About the Spirit of the Honu

The turtle's spirit, known as honu in the Hawaiian language, symbolizes patience, wisdom, and longevity. In many indigenous cultures, the turtle is revered as a sacred animal with physical and spiritual strength.

Our Honu candle embodies the turtle spirit's essence and represents the flow of life. The turtle reminds us to slow down, take time, and be patient. Lighting the Honu candle in your home can bring a sense of peace and tranquility to your life. It serves as a reminder to embrace the journey, trust the process, and be patient with ourselves and those around us.

As the candle burns, it releases Cedarwood and Vanilla's sweet and woody aroma, creating a calming atmosphere that can help you connect with your inner spirit and the flow of life. It reminds us to slow down and take a moment to appreciate the beauty and simplicity of life.

Why we use soy wax

100% biodegradable & water solubleSoy wax is a biodegradable plant-based wax. Essentially, it is made up of the same biological chemicals that are found in other plant fibers. That means that it is safe for the organisms that are found in soil to decompose soy wax.

No toxins are released when burnedSoy wax is not toxic. That means that when used for candles, they will not release toxins and chemicals into the air when burned.

Clean burnSoy wax is considered a clean-burning wax, which means it can burn for hours at a time and make your home smell lovely.

Candle care

The better you treat your candle, the better it will treat you!

Let the wax melt all the way across
Don't blow the candle out until the top layer of wax has melted all the way across. This might take several hours so don't set out to burn a candle unless you've got the time to do so. If not melted all the way across the candle starts to tunneling and the wick starts to sink lower.

Only burn your candle for 4 hours at a time
If you burn your candle for more than 4 hours at a time, carbon will collect on the wick, and your wick will begin to "mushroom." This can cause the wick to become unstable, the flame to get too large, your candle to smoke, and soot to be released into the air and around your candle container.

Trim the wood wick
Trim the wick to 5mm before each lighting. To trim the wick, carefully break it off with your fingertips or use a wick trimmer.
