Making Solstice Candles

- The Winter Solstice 2020 is a particularly special Solstice due to the various planetary and lunar line ups and because of the conjunction of Saturn and Jupiter which will resemble the Christmas Star. Many indigenous people around the world believe this Solstice is a portal to the Age of Aquarius. We will leave behind the materialism of our current age and move into an age of spirituality and new ideas. I think it is a great idea to join in with our global community who are meditating and visualising and praying over the three days of Solstice, for a better, more equitable and caring world.
For me, that always includes the plants and animals, the mountains and rivers and the forests and jungles. I am really looking forward to the celebrations!

Thank you for watching. Wishing you a very happy Solstice, a Blessed Christmas and a Peaceful and Kind New Year.
I really love how you describe the importance of the celebration and everyone globally celebrating at once. The power in this must be fantastic, immence!
I think so. It only takes a few of us to put our minds together and our hearts, to make a difference.😀
Solstice Blessings To You And Yours! I use this chant I found in a novel: MOTHER OF US ALL I PRAY, PEACE UPON THE EARTH THIS DAY, BRING AN END TO WAR AND STRIFE, MAKE KINDNESS RULE IN EVERY LIFE. May we create a new year of abundance and blessing for all.
Beautiful JB. thanks for sharing. Blessings for 2021
I have no mullen blossoms saved back, but I always celebrate the solstice which I was born during, with a fire of rose wood, sage, and lavender, followed by sweet grass from the American Indians. This year herbs are from the bad lands. I am so glad you shared this! I will save some next year.
Happy birthday! Hope the coming year is good for you. Your sacred fire sounds lovely.
@@DanusIrishHerbGarden i am praying with us all joining together in prayer things will change.
Got here via another vid you did about Mullein. Didn’t know candles could be made from this wonderful plant. 🙏
Please, please, please, Terry, let us get our freedom back! This has been the worse time for us! A time of lies and isolation. My household will be sending love and hope and all kinds of good magic into the universe. Thank you for another great video! Blessings!❤️❤️❤️
YES Echo Beach!!! "All kinds of good magic " -- sounds great. Blessings to you and yours xx
Terri, you are such a pretty and elegant lady. I love your hair. Blessings to all for 2021. May it be better than 2020. Fantastic filming Lol. Thank you for a great year of videos. I look forward to them. Peace and light. 💕
Peace and Light to you too Pamela and thank you! Lol says thanks too😄 Hoping very much for a better year.
Basking in the Peace, and Quiet of the Dark time of the year ;)) Thanks Dany, I'll be making these this year for Solstice!!
Enjoy!
Marvelous video! Blessings to you, and may we listen to the wise elders who have asked us to participate in the Solstice meditations.
Thanks Freebird. Enjoy your meditation.
Thanks a lot I've just found your Web site and videos after Bealtaine cottage (colette O’Neill) and both of you are wonderful women,I love the message you send .Martine,from France.blessings to you.
Bonjour Martine, J'espere tu est bien. x
I’ll certainly be joining in prayers for a more brighter peaceful stress free world
Blessings x
That's great Joyce! It only takes 1% of the population to generate change apparently. Blessings for that brighter, peaceful and stress free world. x
Of all the uses of mullein, I'd never heard of this one and I think it's a fantastic idea. The way fiorward for me for sure. Peace, love and light this solstice.
Peace and :Love to you too and best wishes for 2021 xx
Awesome that you speak of Winter Solstice while you make these. I'm approaching my 2022 Yule (17 Jan) and will definitely include thoughts for the world during the Yule Blot. I posted a comment earlier in you Mullein video that I have A LOT of Mullein on our acreage here in East CO. Making these torches just gave me a great idea to have them at Yule (and next Winter Solstice). I have a couple 'older' candles on my alter that may provide some wax; the connection fits I think. I'll have to find some Mullein stalks before the stalks go into the compost piles. You are so awesome; I appreciate you.
Just lovely. Peace, love, and many blessings 🙏
Peace and Love to you too. x
do very interesting....love your pup❤️you have such heart warming ideas, love listening to you ❤️
Those torches are absolutely magical Terri! Thanks for sharing.
You're welcome Aimee - have a wonderful Solstice and blessings to you and yours x
Our lady candles they are beautiful we need to get everyone saying the rosary the rosary is a powerful weapon against evil
thank you for your loving heart in action :) holy mother and holy father together guiding us all towards truth and love...i want to be of service too :)
This is awesome. I had no idea mullein cld be used this way. Thank you Kindly. ✨Many blessings
oh it is so amazing and beautiful. I actually fascinated by who is this guy that collect this aluminium leftovers, I do always thought there is must be a better solution to this than trow it away.
It is a wonderful solution. The man sells the aluminium and buys trees and then brings them to schools and gets the children to help him to plant them. He is a great example of someone who is giving back in more ways than one.😄
Happy Solstice and Yule ,wishing you Peace ,Love ,Health and Happiness for 2021
Many Happy Returns to you Mary xx
Also. A great use for all my candle remnants 😊 I have a stash much like urs.
About how long do they stay burning. Enjoyed this video
A few hours - depends on the oil in the plant, the amount of wax and the weather!!😂
Happy Solstice, Terri, Many blessings to you & yours! Thank you for the gift of your videos. I'm always excited to see a new one pop up.
Thank you so much D Jeffery. Many Blessings to you and yours too, x
Thank you Terry..as always your videos are a blessing...
Thank you Dianne! Blessings
Wow, what a great use for mullein. Thank you for sharing. I can't wait to try it. Best wishes!
The stalks are fantastic. They make really bright and long lasting torches.
How lovely! We used to do something like this when I was a child. We used cattails and called them ‘punks’. Not sure why. They worked great.
I must try those some time too.
You have a beautiful home I love your cook stove and such a beautiful cat. I have 12 cats and one dog plus chickens and mallard ducks. Much love from w.v usa
Hi Stephanie. i love our stove too, I bless it every day because it cooks, heats and gives us hot water. I wonder which cat you saw as we have three. I love ducks and would like a couple down the line. Best Wishes to you.
Love your videos.
Terry if you had ban old metal tea pot, you could melt the wax in that and then you would have a spout, much easier than a spoon. just a thought. regards Lynda from Australia.
Great idea! I have an old pot one Ill use next time
Solstice Blessings to you and all your beloveds Terri.
And to you and yours Rozanna xx
Hi Danu. Thank you for all your wonderful videos .... love them. Can you please let me have a contact for the man in Galway who takes the aluminum holders from the candles. I have lots!
Hi - I have his number somewhere in the house. Will you please email me about this as it is difficult to find a comment later. It will take me a while to root out the book with his number.
Oh I did this this year I had a wonderful supply of mullien and saved the flowers for earache drops . I save my wax also it's good to use for lots of stuff.
Such a wonderful light from them. i make the ear ache remedy too!
Beautiful! When did you harvest these? Just wondering how long they take to dry out?
I harvest in Autumn and then use them as candles for Winter Solstice
As always, a lovely combination of practical, hands on craft with spiritual practice.
Thank you. I think it is important to include the sacred within the mundane. Blessings x
Will you be doing this again this year, Terry? We had hardly any mullein this year. Not sure what happened.
Yes. I have lots of Mullein stems and a lovely large twisted one that looks like a candelabra😃
Love & peace...Happy Solstice!
Love and Peace to you too! x
👍👍
🔥🕯
This was great. Thank you.
Thanks Robin!💚
This is the dawning of the Age of Aquarius, age of Aquarius, Aquarius, Aquarius...... Solstice Blessings to All. May all hearts open and may all humankind be filled with the divine love! Blessings Terry and family for all the good! Have a beautiful celebration with your mullein torches!!
Thank you Lois. I hope all hearts open and we do move into an age of peace and good will. It feels so positive at the moment😄💚😃
@@DanusIrishHerbGarden Yes :)
Thank You Terri for sharing your time, knowledge, love, and peace to help us all grow spiritually and personally.
Oh wow, this is going to be great! I have lots of mullein around me this year!☀️
This was so amazing ❤
Thanks Kitty!
Blessings to you and yours Ontario Canada Thankyou 🦔
Thank you Beverley - and to you and yours! xx
I so wanted to hear how long they burn can you tell me?
Hey Kathryn, it will depend on many variables - the weather, the wind, the amount of wax and how long they have been drying. They do last a while but it is always different.
Wishing you a beautiful and happy Christmas and have a wonderful solstice hope your candles burn bright 😊❤️xxxxx
Wishing the same for you. Keeping fingers crossed re candles - hope the wind is not too high!👍💚🌞 xx
Wonderful video. Love the information you share. I do hope that this next year will be filled with positive energy. Thank you for sharing your knowledge 🥰
Blessings from a beginner ...
Kathleen and Sisi (the pup)
Thank you for watching x
Wonderfully interesting and useful. I will resaerch if these grow in CT in USA. Terri do you have a link to one of the sites promoting this global meditation on 12/21?
They should grow there Sharon. As for the meditations, I first found out here -mailchi.mp/1dc9e5a80b43/oct-2020-full-moon-newsletter-4506934?e=ae5bf455e0 and there is a lot of information ondclovesgaia.blogspot.com/2020/12/global-meditation-21122020.html and the Shift network is organising global meditations too.
Dear Terri, thank you so much for sharing your lovely feelings and thoughts. It has been wonderful to discover your videos ( through Bealtaine Cottage and Colette!) I really enjoy them so much! Here, in this part of the world we begin the summer solstice, but anyway, the feelings towards what kind of elightment we need are the same. Yes, we need to change our minds, we need to embrace Mother Nature, because that´s the source, the one and only, and we need to tribute her. Blessings to you and your´s Terri, Wishing you a New and blessed New Year! Gracias!! Thank you!. Marcela
Blessings to you too Marcela I am so glad to hear that you enjoy the videos. There is such an air of positivity that I am confident that people will turn to embrace Mother Earth as you say. xx
Thank you Terri, I love how you show how to make things from the garden and uses on a healing level. I hope I can grow Mullein someday when we move (to the Scottish Borders). Happy blessed new year to you and yours!
Send me your address and I will send you some seeds. I believe that what ever you use things for, all plants offer healing in some way,on some level. Sometimes healing just happens by talking to them!😃🌿💚🌸
Solstice blessing to you and your family, and our Mother Earth ! Thank you for another gentle and informative video, I looked up lols music and found some on Spotify I loved it😊
Thank you Lynne! Solstice Blessings to you too and wishing you the best for 2021. Lol is delighted!!😄🎵🎶💚
Beautiful blessings for the winter solstice may the light shine brightly for peace and love 💖
Hear hear Abigail, thank you🌞
Can you share the link for the man in Galway, I would love to save my little candle holder for him. Thank you🙏
Nickoline I do not have a link. I can send you his number if you send me a PM with your number of email.
I can’t wait until I can gather mullein and make these. I love your pendant! Is it a crystal?
Thanks Robyn, my pendant is a silver triskele.
So beautiful such a great idea Solstice Blessing's to you
Solstice Blessings, the candles worked a treat.
Wonderful idea and tradition. Thank you for sharing 🙏
Yu're welcome!

what was the liquid in the bottom of the pan, I noticed. Is it water? Seemed odd.
The liquid was melted wax!!
My mullen dried outside is it still good??
That's for you to know. x
Thank you for this and I will now use the stalks for my candle burns at the solstice, I never knew and now I know. Question.... When are you able to collect the stalks? I know once petals are all gone. But can we collect while still greenish and hang up to dry or wait for a period of time? I live in the Pacific Northwest and rains 6 to 8 months of the fall/winter time frame. Thank you for your time.
At the end of summer, when the stalk starts to turn brown, harvest and hang it up to dry. xx
@@DanusIrishHerbGarden thank you so much for replying
Im going to try it, thank you
Have fun! xx
