In 1917, in a little Portuguese village, a woman arrayed in a light “brighter than the sun” appeared to three shepherd children. She was beautiful, loving, and brilliant. After years of investigation, the Church declared that this was an apparition of Mary that was worthy of belief—that these little souls had actually seen the Mother of Jesus. She had talked to them, showed them miracles and visions, and given them instructions, the most frequent of which was to say the rosary daily and tell others to do the same.
Catholics have a special relationship with Mary. We don’t worship her—we only worship God. But we do honor her in the way we think Jesus does. We believe she is among the Saints in Heaven praying for us—the Queen of All Saints, in fact. And we think it makes sense that because she is Jesus’s mom, He listens to her in a special way. Asking for her prayers seems like a smart thing to do if we want a powerful intercessor, and listening to her is also a good move because we know she is closest to Jesus and knows His heart as only a mother can. Therefore, when Mary says to pray the rosary every day, we’d be wise to listen to her.
This scent is so fitting. It was noted to be raining heavily before the miracle of the sun dance. So we chose a scent profile that both honors Mary & reminds us of the miracle that occurred in 1917. The scent profile for this candle is Rose + Thunderstorm. It is a true rose scent balanced out by a warm, woodsy aroma.
