## About
The shortest day of the year, candles lit against the early dark, and the old promise that the light will return. Winter Sunshine was first made to celebrate the winter solstice, and its comforting aroma seems to brighten the long, dark days that follow.Cultures the world over have kept solstice ceremonies, rooted in an ancient fear that the failing light would never return unless people did something about it. On the shortest day, the ancients and followers of earth-based religions celebrate the return of the light and the rebirth of the sun; in old Europe the festival was known as Yule. We redesigned this synergy to be more in keeping with that ancient celebration: notes of evergreen and mandarin over the deep, steady strength of rosewood, an important blend for anyone who keeps the old seasonal rites.DetailsCITES-certified (sustainable) Rosewood, Lemon, Nutmeg, Geranium, Mandarin, Juniper, Rose, Frankincense, Clary Sage, Cardamom and Cinnamon BarkAvailable as an undiluted synergy or a skin-safe anointing oilAges 12 and upHow to useDiffuse the synergy as the candles are lit on winter evenings, or touch the skin-safe anointing oil to your wrists in your own solstice ritual.
