Orichas Candles

Orichas candles are special candles used in Santería and other Afro-Caribbean spiritual traditions to honor and invoke the Orichas, the deities of these faiths. Each candle is typically color-coded and may be scented to represent a specific Oricha, embodying their unique attributes and powers. For example, a white candle might be used for Obatala, symbolizing purity and wisdom, while a blue candle could represent Yemaya, the goddess of the sea. Lighting Orichas candles is believed to facilitate communication with these deities, offering protection, guidance, and blessings during rituals and ceremonies.
