St. Joseph Candle Vintage

CAD $30.00

Excellent condition vintage 1960’s // St. Joseph is known for helping one sell their home or business. It is known as the age-old tradition of requesting the aide of St. Joseph while in the midst of selling one’s home – To bury or not to bury, is inconsequential to the outward symbol of one’s faith and prayer. Light this candle to give your St, Joseph Spell Kit a boost. 

Candles are used in religious rituals & for spiritual means as both functional & symbolic lights. It was believed that if Holly was placed by your doorway it would aid in protection & invite helpful spirits into the home.

As Christianity swept into pagan lands, and it officially replaced the old religions, sometimes remnants of the old culture and religion remained, however, and rather than discarding the old gods entirely, some cultures re-branded the native gods as Christian saints. Sacred spaces were appropriated and churches built on them. Jesus was nothing more than a copy of popular dying-and-rising fertility gods in various places—Tammuz in Mesopotamia, Adonis in Syria, Attis in Asia Minor, and Horus in Egypt. Of note is the fact that none of the stories and attributes of pagan deities became the stories and attributes of saints, although this was done at a popular level more often than at an official level.
