Mars Roman god ritual offering candle
Everything chosen to make this ritual offering candle - including color and scent - has been thoroughly researched and are perfect offerings for Mars, the Roman god of war. The adornments are cedar tips, peppermint, citrine, marigold petals and a sword charm.* The candle is scented with a blend of juniper and cedar. The 8-oz. tin measures 3"x 2".
To those honoring gods in the Roman pantheon, Mars is literally considered the father of Rome and the greatest warrior god. In addition to physical fighting, Mars is also a warrior against illness, sterility and death. The earliest worship of him was as an agricultural deity; he was petitioned for land fertility and aggressive protection of fields and boundaries. If you're fighting your own boundary war of sorts, Mars can help in your challenge. Mars favors those born in March (his feast month), as well as farmers and soldiers.
The planetary symbol was taken from the deity's symbol of a sword and shield. It is now associated with the male gender, mainly because Mars was considered the god of masculinity. Work with Mars to enhance physical skills (especially in combat), bring courage and fearlessness and to help resolve conflicts.
*Kindly note that due to the unique nature of hand-made goods and the availability of materials, adornments, ingredients and colors may vary from those shown. But know that each candle will be equally beautiful and perfectly appropriate for each entity.
