Candle Wick Shoppe Blog

Hello all! Here's your Coventry Magic Oracle reading for the week of March 12, 2017 to March 18, 2017.

This week I pulled the Witch's Brew Original, the Goddess Affirmation, and the Reversing Motor City Hoo Doo candle. It's time to empower yourself! The Reversing candle is to be used to send any negative energy back to its source. The Goddess candle is to bring out your inner Goddess, liberate yourself from these dark influences, while the Witch's Brew Original candle is to empower you and your magic during this period of recovery. 

Good luck! Stop by Candle Wick for these candles. We have the remedy for what ails your soul.

Root fall scent line is in! Pumpkin Spice, Mulled Cider, Apple Harvest alon with our standards! Come in and give them a sniff!! 

Jacki Smith is one of my most important rol models. As someone who aspires to be an entreprenuer in the magical and spiritual communiity, she is a great person to watch and learn from. Her motivation and ambition is inspirational. I can feel her powerful magic before she arrives just to say "Hi!" and check on the store. She is very dedicated to her craft and business,  and that makes you feel protected, nurtured and included. I can only dream to be as successful and icredible as Jacki Smith. I would love to thank her for allowing me to be part of the Candle Wick Shoppe family and wish her a Fantastic Month of Jacki!

I didn’t know Jacki before I started working here at the Candle Wick Shoppe. Even as a customer, I was unaware of this magnificent lady.  Working with Jacki has been filled with a wealth of priceless information. I had the great opportunity to work with Jacki a bit to help set up the Mojo Bar. Her process is an amazing thing to witness!  Then she trained me in the process of assisting customers with creating a Mojo Bag or Conjure Jar for their needs was nothing short of amazing.

 Jacki is extremely empowering, uplifting, and humble.   She celebrates other's successes, which is a fantastic thing to witness. Jacki's dedication to being of service to others, assisting them in manifesting their intentions is, yet, another great example of the type of woman she is. Not only has she enhanced my conjuring and magical life, but her example of service to others through love has

deepened my desire to be of further service to others.

Thank you for being awesomely you!

I hadn’t really spent one-on- one time with Jacki, until the birth of the Mojo Bar. To familiarize me with

the process we created a Conjure Jar together. My family was going through a whirlwind of change,

emotions were running high, and as the oldest child, I was running around trying to glue everything back

together. I was feeling frustrated and energetically pulled in two opposite directions (I finally know

what my Pisces brothers feel like everyday). Jacki began to help me dissect the situation, understand

the deep-rooted cause of this explosion, and empathize with each party…and then…we made MOJO.

I learned so much about her in those 30 minutes. Jacki is a whirlwind of power, sass, wisdom, and

uplifting, healing energy. She has invested so much of her life into helping others find their magic, heal

themselves, love others and live balanced, happy lives. She has inspired me to push my own magical self

to areas I never knew I could reach…access power I thought I couldn’t handle, work on sealing wounds

that I had allowed to bleed for far too long…and I’m so much better for it. That’s what the Mojo Bar is all

about, letting you get your hands dirty  using the magic inside of you to create positive changes in

yourself and the world around you.

Burning this candle, I am immediately in the market place in Morocco. This earthy, yet spicy, aroma makes me want to reach out and touch a traditional hand-woven rug along the Moroccan streets.  Permeating and gentle, this candle will surely invigorate your senses. Perfect for burning during a bubble bath or with wine and a great book!

I love the way  Fresh Wave eliminates odor in a hurry! I can set it and forget it. Using the Carpet Shake makes my house smell like spring year round!

Fresh Wave Natural Odor Eliminator comes in a Crystal gel available in 8oz and 16oz sizes. Just remove the foil, set it, and forget it! Fresh Wave Natural Odor Eliminator is also available in a convenient Home and Travel Spray and Carpet Shake: perfect for getting rid of the after-holiday smells of upcoming Labor Day!

Celebrate the bright, flowery, fragrance of summer with our delightful Daffodil candle by Root! This beeswax blend candle is scented with an essential oil blend of bergamot, sweet melon, clove, lily and dashes of honeysuckle and vanilla. It’s available in a votive, small, and large Veriglass varieties.

I love the way this candle permeates the room, delicately, as I get wisked away to a field of daffordils.

Murray & Lanman’s Florida Water

Florida water is an incredibly universal tool for the physical world as well as the spiritual. I always like to say you can use it to cleanse your face or your sacred space. Highly effective astringent properties make it a useful aftershave and face-rinse. You may sprinkle it about your sacred area to cleanse the energy, or objects that have accumulated unwanted energy. As someone that practices healing arts in both spiritual and energetic means as well as the physical via herbal remedies and cures, this is a useful tool in my “magic bag” or my medicine chest.

This item is a must have for any healer or magical practitioner.

Good afternoon everyone!

Welcome to the weekly Coventry Magic Oracle Reading.

This week is all about healing, nourishing, and protection. The Healing candle reminds us to take the time to heal each and every aspect of our lives--from the physical to the spiritual. The Goddess Candle advises us to take the time to nourish ourselves and invoke the goddess.  The Black Cat Candle is all about protecting ourselves from all things we do not want in our lives and attract luck.

Heal, nourish, and protect. 

See you next week!

Testing stuff. 

Ridding one's self of negative energy seems to be the theme of most of my customers magical purchases this week, and now is the perfect time to do it! Or at least that's what the CMO says. 

I did a reading for clearing, and got the following three candles that I suggest you get if you are getting rid of some nasty energy this week.

Makin' Tracks by Wicked Witch Mojo: While this is most often used to get rid of nasty neighbors or co-workers, hot-food those troublesome life issues with speed and efficiency. 

Reversing by Motor City Hoo Doo: All the drama and junk hanging around your spirit needs to go back to where it came from.

Recover Lost Money by Motor City Hoo Doo: Uncover your money leaks so you can clear them out.

Good luck to everyone kicking that negative energy out of your life! Do a reading for yourself with our online Oracle to find which candles you need.

This week marks the first of many weekly readings that I will be doing with the Coventry Magic Oracle deck from Coventry Creations. As many of you know, we have a copy in the store, and if you are feeling indecisive or looking for guidance, this deck helps you pick the candles you need, and how to use them for love, prosperity, protection, healing, and clearing.

This week, with a Retrograde in effect, I felt that it would be best to go with a Healing reading.

Card One: Lakshmi World Magic Candle

Lakshmi's healing comes with the relief of stress around financial issues. Call to Lakshmi in her eight manifestations of wealth

Card Two: Road Opener Motor City Hoo Doo Candle

You want your healers and doctors to know exactly how to help you and bring you back to good health.

Card Three: Soul Mate Affirmation Candle

It's time to heal your soul and all the times you've abandoned yourself over being hurt.

"I am deeply in love with this beautiful jewel of a planet we live on, and believe this world is full of magic if only we can remember to see it." [x]

That quote right there is from Sharon's bio page on her website, and reading that is when I knew that she was the coolest.

Sharon Knight's music is nothing if not some of the most magical that I've ever heard, and I was psyched to learn that she was coming to Candle Wick to perform. 

Some background: Sharon is a Celtic folk singer hailing from San Francisco and has an astonishing voice, as well as some rockin' octave mandolin skills. She has toured nationwide with her collaborator Winter who, by the way, co-founded their gothic folk metal band Pandemonaeon (bold text because how rad is that genre?), but this is going to be her first time performing in Michigan! 

Can you feel my excitement? 

August 6th, at our new 175 W. Nine Mile location. Join us!

You can listen to Sharon's songs on her website, link above, and you can purchase tickets for her show right here on our website! [click for tickets] 

The newest things in the store right now are AMAZING. We now have these awesome flasks, cigarette holders, business card holders, patches, and a couple pretty cool signs.  All of these products are designed well, with retro flare! The pictures on each item make you want to buy one in each color! Being a fan of vintage and retro fashion and way of life, I feel like these products were made for me, and I know that if you saw them, you'd feel the exact same way! So come check them out while we've got them, and don't forget your wallet! ;) 

We are now carrying tarot decks! With all sorts of themes and styles, it was about time we showed them off. The decks are 15% off staring today, and the sale ends on June 13th. Come in and ask us about our cards!

Ferndale candle boutique comes out of the basement.

Jacki Smith,  Patty Shaw and Phoenix move their garden level store, the Candle Wick Shoppe formally at 195 W 9 Mile to street level and do it with a nod to the good old days. 175 W 9 Mile is a grand old space that had been sorely abused and neglected. The sisters are returning her to her glory while bringing her into the 21^st century.

The owners say the whole point of the Candle Wick Shoppe is about the experience. “We want our customers to have fun, be surprised and leave our store feeling better than when they came in. We put a penny in a jar every time someone gasps when they open the front door.”

At the Candle Wick Shoppe there is something for everyone. Jacki and Patty consider their place a destination gift store you don’t have to go out of your way for. Now here’s the twist that keeps their patrons interest peeked and calling this the store of experiences. The tin ceiling, floor to ceiling shelves with a rolling ladder and hardwood floors screamed apothecary to the entire Candle Wick Shoppe in a pre-planning meeting. When the dust finally clears patrons will be welcomed by dark chocolate brown wood floors, teal and rumba orange walls and lots of copper accents. Jacki and Patty’s passion for helping people enrich their lives will be carried through with the products and services found here. Truly and eclectic adventure awaits for all.

This magical store boasts it has a remedy for what ails your soul. If you need a good laugh, you’ll find it here. If you need stress relief, you’ll get it here. Whether you shimmy up to the Mojo bar or book some time in the reiki room the personal attention provided is sure to turn your frown upside-down.

Thanks to their knowledgeable managers April and Dawn and their wonderfully fun staff, Breanna, Emily and Shannon and the talented Reiki team, David, Margaret, Natalie, Mitzi and Greta; Jacki and Patty feel confident their vision is in good hands.

A grand opening on June 11, 2015 will be complete with a ribbon cutting ceremony at 12 noon. City officials will be there to help Candle Wick open their doors and welcome a new age of apothecary wisdom to the discerning citizens of Ferndale and beyond. To keep the party going Candle Wick Shoppe will have specials and hilarity going all weekend. This move and renovation is a big deal for CWS and Ferndale. Come help them celebrate.

The Candle Wick Shoppe and Reiki Healing Center in Ferndale, MI was founded in 2009, and specializes in all occasion gifts and services and products for your soul. They also offer a large range of incense, candles, and spiritual supplies. 175 W. 9 Mile, Ferndale, MI 48220, (248)547-2987, www.candlewickshoppe.com

Did you know we have an online version of the Coventry Magic Oracle? Well, you do now! It contains a card for each Coventry Creations candle and tells you how these candles are going to help you with prosperity, love, healing, protection and clearing. Today I did a clearing reading on the online oracle, for anyone trying to get rid of some negativity, and found that you should use the following: 

Prosperity Affirmation: "Time to hire a professional; you're not supposed to do this on your own."

Fiery Wall of Protection: "A good brush fire to clear the clutter can help your plans and ideals grow even faster."

Money Draw Blessed Herbal Candle: "Unlucky no more." 

Use these three candles, together, to get rid of the spiritual clutter and bring in some prosperity.

You can find the online Oracle here.
