Ceridwela’s Bleeding Heart™ – Emotional Release & Alignment Candle

Description

The Ceridwela Bleeding Heart™ Ritual Candle is used to release suppressed emotional material, stabilise internal response, and support structured shadow work.

It is applied through steady, contained practice.

This is internal work.
It releases pressure and restores stability over time.

When to Use

Use this candle when:

• carrying unresolved emotional weight
• processing grief, loss, or past experiences
• engaging in shadow work or self-reflection
• releasing suppressed or unexpressed emotion
• rebuilding emotional balance and self-compassion

It is suited to gradual, repeated work, not one-off release.

How to Use

Keep the work contained and consistent.

1. Prepare a quiet, undisturbed space.
2. Set one clear internal focus (e.g. release, clarity, acceptance).
3. Light the candle and remain present.
4. Allow emotion to surface without forcing it.
5. Sit, write, or reflect without judgement.
6. Close deliberately and ground yourself.

Do not rush the process. Stability builds over time.

What This Tool Does

This work does not remove emotion instantly.
It:

• allows suppressed material to surface safely
• reduces internal pressure and emotional tension
• supports structured release and reflection
• strengthens emotional awareness and stability

Release follows containment.

How It’s Made

Each candle is hand-dipped in layered wax to create a dense structure and controlled burn.

A concealed blend of botanicals supports emotional release, clarity, and stabilisation.

All materials are natural and prepared individually.

Colour Structure

• Black outer layer – containment, protection, holding the process
• Red inner core – emotional release, expression, and renewal

As the red core emerges, it reflects the movement from containment into release.

Plant Allies

• Hyssop – cleansing and emotional release
• Rose – compassion and heart-centred work
• Rosemary – clarity and grounding
• Lemon Balm / Marjoram – calm and emotional balance
• Yarrow – resilience and boundary support

Additional botanicals remain part of a family formulation.

Who This Is For

• individuals working through emotional strain or past experiences
• practitioners engaged in shadow work
• those developing emotional awareness and stability
• beginners seeking structured internal work

It is not intended for passive or decorative use.

Care & Use

• Burn on a heat-safe surface
• Keep away from drafts and flammable materials
• Never leave unattended
• Trim wick to approx. 5–7 mm

Because botanicals are embedded within the wax, the flame may flicker or crackle. This is normal.

If emotional intensity rises, pause the work and ground yourself.

Important

This is a gradual process.

Do not force release.

Work consistently, remain patient, and allow stability to develop alongside release.
