Why Beeswax?

Beeswax candles hold a vital place in Christian liturgy, symbolising Christ as the “Light of the World.” The pure wax signifies His stainless human nature born of the Virgin Mary, the wick represents His soul, and the flame reflects His divine essence.

Their gentle fragrance and clear, smokeless light illustrate the purity and grace of God. Church tradition dictates that altar candles contain at least 51% beeswax, maintaining both reverence and authenticity. Beeswax naturally cleanses the air and produces a soft, radiant glow, fostering a sense of sacredness in worship; a practice rooted in the earliest centuries of Christianity.

Symbolism in Catholic Worship:

Christ’s Purity: Beeswax, created by bees, symbolises Christ’s pure body, born of the Virgin Mary.

Christ’s Divinity: The flame embodies Christ’s divinity and His self-offering, burning itself away to bring light, just as He gave Himself for mankind.

Sweetness of Grace: The soft, natural scent of beeswax evokes the sweetness of God’s grace and His living word.

Purity & Self-Gift: The chaste, self-giving nature of the worker bees and their labour for the hive reflect purity and self-sacrifice, embodied in the candle itself.
