The Sabbat - Phytognosis Vegan Soy Ritual Candle

Deep Woods & Black Tobacco

Dance beneath the moon with The Sabbat, a transcendent 6oz hand-poured soy candle that captures the wild revelry and sacred magic of witches' gatherings since time immemorial. This enchanting blend mirrors the transformative journey from twilight to dawn, when the veil thins and magic flows freely.

The ritual begins with bright, citrusy notes of pomelo and lemon, while neroli adds its honeyed orange blossom radiance. Pink pepper and warming nutmeg spark the wild spirit of the dance, while cardamom weaves its exotic spice throughout. At the heart, geranium unfolds its complex floral melody, grounded by the sacred smoke of palo santo—traditionally used to cleanse and purify sacred spaces. Noble rosewood and cedarwood create a sturdy base, while earthy patchouli anchors the blend in ancient forest magic.

Crafted with intention using pure soy wax, essential oils, and premium fragrance oils, The Sabbat burns with the same fierce joy as the witches' fires of old. This magical blend honors both traditional craft and modern ethics—completely cruelty-free and vegan, without phthalates or harmful additives—allowing you to celebrate the old ways while walking mindfully in the new.

Phytognosis

The term "Phytognosis" is a compound word derived created by Daniel A. Schulke from two Greek roots: "phyto," meaning plant or vegetation, and "gnosis," referring to knowledge, particularly that of a spiritual or mystical nature. The combination of these two elements results in a term that encapsulates the concept of acquiring spiritual understanding and insight through direct interaction with and contemplation of plants. In essence, Phytognosis represents the wisdom and enlightenment that can be attained by engaging with the botanical world on a profound, metaphysical level.

Phytognosis was established in 2011 to address the need for high-quality, authentic botanical ingredients. As a practitioner of leechcraft and wortcunning, founder Jeremy frequently encountered difficulties in sourcing genuine materials necessary for my practice. Drawing upon Jeremy's extensive experience in this field, he is now able to provide the same level of quality to my clients and customers.

Phytognosis specializes in the production of handcrafted, artisanal incense, ritual oils, and materia magica that are entirely natural, free from synthetic compounds or artificial fragrance oils. Their products are crafted exclusively from organic or ethically wildcrafted plant materials. The majority of their offerings are created using traditional methods, taking into account astrological timing or adhering to medieval practices. In addition, they offer a diverse selection of rare and unique plant resins, woods, oils, and leaves for use in rituals, meditation, spiritual practices, and personal enjoyment. For novice practitioners, they also provide a range of ready-to-use products to facilitate their introduction to these traditional practices.

Jeremy is a dedicated scholar with a deep-rooted interest in the study of European folk magic, focusing his research on the areas of occult herbalism, traditional medicine, and the rich history of witch-lore and practices originating from the British Isles.

Jeremy's academic background is equally important to his practice, having earned a Master of Science degree in Microbiology and Immunology and a Doctor of Philosophy degree in Pathology. This unique combination of esoteric knowledge and scientific expertise allows Jeremy to approach his studies with a multidisciplinary perspective, bridging the gap between the mystical and the empirical.
