January's Exclusive Candles

Happy 2026, my friends!

I am so looking forward to another year of our Candle Club. Each month brings me so much excitement and inspiration.

To start January off, my partner and I always take a frigid dip in the ocean. Living in coastal British Columbia, we are lucky to spend a lot of time near the sea. There is something very clarifying about the beach in deep winter - a feeling of total surrender to the wind and waves.

Sitting on the frozen rocks and looking out towards the endless sea, I felt so relaxed and open to possibility. Knowing that when the tide went out, new magic would be revealed that had previously been hidden. Rocks teeming with starfish, shining pebbles and barnacles. That's where this month's candle concept came from.

Mermaid Trove is a set that I hope will evoke the feeling of openness and possibility for the new year. A honey coloured candle with skullcap to open your mind, an algae coloured candle with damiana to cleanse your thoughts and allow intuition to flow. And finally, a shiva shell polished into a beautiful star shape to remind you of magic wherever you go.

Even if the way forward is not always clear, with time and openness the tide will go out and reveal something new and beautiful to you.

Sending love, always

2026 Crystal Prescriptions For The Signs

Last year I offered a crystal recommendation for each Zodiac sign, based on what the dominant energy for the year was shaping up to be. So let's do it again!

ARIES:

2026 will likely be a year of reaching out for support and community for Aries. As a fiery, independent sign, this might feel uncomfortable at first. Remember, there is great value in building a network of people who care for you (and who you care for). Hold tightly to chrysocolla this year to enhance your communication ability, to nourish your heart when times feel hard, and to clarify your thoughts.

TAURUS:

You are emerging from your shell this year to embody a more powerful and thoughtful version of yourself. New opportunities are around the corner, but it's very important for you to maintain a sanctuary for yourself so that you can retreat and find stillness in between bursts of productivity. You can lean on blue lace agate as an ally this year to find calmness and clarity.

GEMINI:

A year full of creativity is ahead! You have so much to share with the world that has been just below the surface until now. You may need some reassurance or confidence to pursue your dreams, but this is the year for taking creative risks. Fire quartz will be a huge support for you this year as you find your creative power.

CANCER:

This year might require more stillness and consideration than usual, particularly when it comes to planning and maintaining your financial and career goals. You do not have to be in a rush, but you do have to be tactful and thoughtful about your relationship with money and broader resources. Carrying pyrite to attract abundance (and to remind you of the abundance that is already around you) will be a huge help.

LEO:

This is likely to be a year of great personal growth, but perhaps not in the way you expect. You might have to engage with your thoughts and worries in a way you haven't before, which will require a lot of quiet time with yourself. You will be getting to know yourself better this year, so approach that with softness and kindness & hold on to obsidian to assist you with moving through the shadows.

VIRGO:

You're long overdue to tap into your confidence and personal power. This is the year that you will finally push forward and boldly express yourself. You have spent a long time planning and working towards being someone you're proud of, and now its time to share that. Carry carnelian with you as you explore how it feels to be confident and powerful.

LIBRA:

2026 is the year you fall in love with life again - whatever that looks like for you. This is a year to notice the small, beautiful bits of life that you might have forgotten about. Looking closely at nature, speaking lovingly to yourself, discovering a new artist. These are the things that will define this year. Carry moss agate to remind you of the deeply intertwined nature of all living things.

SCORPIO:

This year will test your balancing skills, as changing demands come up that cause your attention to be pulled away from home and into work (or vice versa). Your biggest challenge will be maintaining a strong core and keeping your emotions regulated as you move fluidly through your different responsibilities. Rainbow moonstone will be a helpful friend for you, offering gentle soothing and harmonizing properties.

SAGITTARIUS:

Some choices will come up this year that cause you to reevaluate your plans, hopes, and desires. It will be a gently transformative year, where nothing particularly massive needs to change but some small alterations and tweaks will be necessary. Lean in to the beauty of change, and keep malachite on hand to ease you through this transformation.

CAPRICORN:

You're looking at a year of wealth-gathering in all areas of your life. Resources and community are at your fingertips, so dive in and accept the riches of life! Just remember to balance your urge to indulge and your urge to save this year. Clear quartz will help you to clarify your goals and mindset around money this year.

AQUARIUS:

This year you need to focus on yourself before you focus on anything else. Remember, your greatest ally in life is you. Resist your urge to please others at the expense of yourself. Spend ample time caring for your heart and your body. Carry rose quartz to soften your heart and accept love.

PISCES:

You might have a tendency to have a wandering mind that resists staying in the present. This year, to avoid anxiety and stress, you'll need to practice more mindfulness and grounding. You cannot change things if you're never looking at things from a practical and present standpoint. Carry mookaite jasper to nourish your heart and ground your energy to the present moment.

May you have a wonderful and enchanting 2026!
