If you’ve been white-knuckling your way through the chaos of the past few months, good news: Jupiter is finally packing his bags, leaving the loud verbal frat house of Gemini, and moving into Cancer—a sign that knows how to make soup, tuck you in, and remind you to call your mother. Starting on June 9, 2025, the planet of growth, abundance, and big-picture vision takes up residence in astrology’s coziest corner, and honestly? It’s about time we all got a hug from the heavens. Jupiter in Cancer isn’t about flashing the cash, chasing clout, or posting inspirational quotes next to rented Lamborghinis. No, no. This transit is all about emotional ROI. It asks: are you investing in what truly nourishes you? Is your life structured like a luxury condo but emotionally built like IKEA furniture? Because Jupiter in Cancer is here to give you the emotional Home Depot makeover you didn’t...

Is Your Aura Living on Drive-Thru Magic?

(Why Your Spiritual Health Deserves More Than a Hashtag and a Moon Water Tutorial)

Let’s stop playing. We are in the middle of a collective unraveling and spiritual burnout—planetary, personal, magical. And far too many witches, seekers, and lightworkers are trying to hold it together with aesthetic spells, trending affirmations, and whatever the algorithm served them that day.

You know us—we love a good “dark and mysterious” vibe. We’ve brewed candles for shadow work, danced with the Dark Moon, and invoked deities who don’t always come wearing halos. But let’s clear something up before anyone gets confused:

The “Dark Enlightenment” that’s floating around online? Yeah… that’s not one of our candles. It’s not even a spell. It’s a political philosophy—and not the empowering, change-the-world kind. It’s the “let’s throw democracy out with the bathwater” kind.

So here’s a friendly PSA for our community of magic-makers, mystics, and conscious creators: just because it sounds witchy doesn’t mean it’s aligned with your soul.

What Even Is the "Dark Enlightenment"?

Ah, Taurus season—the time of year when we revel in life’s little luxuries. Cozy blankets? Check. Decadent meals? Absolutely. A bank account that’s mysteriously shrinking because “treat yourself” turned into “whoops, I spent how much?” Yep, that too. But let’s talk about the real bull in the room—the Minotaur. Now, you may have heard that Taurus is ruled by Venus, the planet of beauty, love, and everything pleasant. But don’t let that fool you—this sign has a shadow side, and it’s lurking in a labyrinth of its own making. Enter the myth of King Minos of Crete, which might just be the perfect Taurus tale (with a little side of psychological horror). King Minos, son of Zeus and Europa, wanted the throne of Crete, and like any good politician, he knew divine backing would seal the deal. So, he prayed to his uncle Poseidon for a sign—something impressive, something regal, something…bullish....

The spiritual afterparty nobody talks about

You’ve just finished a killer ritual. Candle flames are whipping around like cobras, incense has etched strange patterns into your ceiling, and your altar looks like a honey badger had brunch on it. The spirits have been called, the work has been done, and now you’re sitting there with a question that doesn’t get nearly enough airtime:

“So… what do I banish now?”

The bulk of the month begins the preparation for the astrological New Year, as the Sun moves into the sign of Aries on March 20th (5:01 AM EST/2:01 AM PST).  So, after three months of traversing through the astrological collective signs, the changes you have made and the seeds you planted will sprout, the air will start to warm up, and the promise of a fresh start is on the way. Since Aries is a fire sign, it’s time to focus on living our best lives and creating a path to make that happen. So, leave the past behind and focus on your intentions. 5 Magical Ways to Make the Most of Aries Season Fire Magic: Do you remember when you were a child and how you blew out a birthday candle? Did you make a wish? Guess what? You were doing fire magic, and candle magic is one of its...

  Life has a way of throwing us into the deep end when we least expect it. One day, you’re gliding through life with a smug little “I’ve got this” attitude, and the next, you’re staring at your ceiling at 3 AM wondering if Mercury is in retrograde—or if you just made a series of spectacularly bad decisions. Here’s the thing: magic isn’t about waiting for the universe to bail you out. It’s about stepping up, lighting a damn candle, and making some energy work in your favor. That’s where Coventry candles come in—crafted with intention and a little extra push from the unseen forces that keep the world spinning. Pair them with the right crystals, and suddenly, you’re not just hoping for a better outcome; you’re actively calling it in. So, whether you’re feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or just in need of a little “please let things go right today” moment,...

In February, we enter Pisces season. Now, there is a lot of confusion surrounding the sign of Pisces, and it ranges from spiritual ecstasy to alcoholic stupors. The point is that after being confronted with the realities of the real world in Capricorn season, and the landscape of group speak in Aquarius, Pisces urges us to seek something more meaningful. It ENDS…  My favorite quote from the Matrix Revolutions is, “Everything that has a beginning, has an end (The Oracle).” Well, the end is here! Pisces is the last sign of the zodiac and completes a cycle that began last March. Pisces reflects the process of going inwards after eleven months of experiencing the outer world and preparing to begin that process again once the Sun moves into Aries. Most magical practitioners know how to work with the cycles of the Moon, but for those who are not, let's explain the...

  Ever wondered what goes into creating the perfect fragrance? At Coventry, we blend our oils with care, precision, and a touch of magic to ensure every scent delivers a rich, layered experience. Let’s explore the fascinating process behind fragrance blending and how it transforms a simple candle into a multi-sensory journey. What Makes a Fragrance? Fragrances are volatile, meaning they constantly evaporate into the air, offering us their essence all day long. Each blend has layers that unfold over time, creating a dynamic experience. By paying attention, you can enjoy a fragrance differently at every moment. These layers—top, heart, and base notes—each play a unique role in the overall blend. Top Notes: The First Impression Top notes are the first scents you detect when smelling a candle. They’re energetic, fleeting, and last just a few minutes before blending into the next layer. Think of them as the personality of the...
