Crystal Desire's Protection candles are infused with good energy, essential oils, and all-natural obsidian gemstones. All gemstones are cleansed in the full moonlight and sage smudge before adding them to the candles. Obsidian is known as the stone of protection, strength, and willpower. Gets rid of negative thoughts, feelings, and pessimism. Encourages one to rely on one's own power. All wax and scents are skin safe (provided that you are not allergic to soy or the scent.)
