About The Midnight Fern

We hand-pour small batches of soy candles in our Georgia studio. Each candle is made with natural waxes, cotton wicks, and phthalate-free fragrance oils for a clean, long-lasting burn. Our vision is to bring together the ancient power of runes and herb magic in a usable and sensory way to aid manifestation in modern life.

OUR PHILOSOPHY

The Midnight Fern candles are centered around the power of runes.  What is a rune?  Part practical, part mystical – a rune is both a letter in an ancient form of writing and a powerful magical symbol. 

 

The word "rune" comes from Proto-Germanic “rūnō”, meaning "secret," "mystery," or "whisper."  The runes are believed to be eternal, pre-existent forces that Odin discovered by undergoing a tremendous ordeal.  There is a great deal of mythology surrounding the runes - see our FAQ page for more information.

 

The rune candles are the reason The Midnight Fern was created.  Inspired by the creator’s connection with the runes and belief in the wisdom of all forms of mystical and magical influences, a vision was born: a fusion that would bring together the ancient power of runes and herbal magic in a usable and sensory way to aid manifestation in modern life.

 

Each candle is infused with the energy of herbs carefully selected to align with rune meanings applicable to daily life.

 

The rune is an element on top of the candle (as opposed to an inscription or carving) so the power of the rune dissolves into the candle as it burns, merging the rune energy with the herbal magic to create a powerful projection to manifest the desired effects.

 

Three is a sacred and revered number in many traditions and the rune candles are each infused with 3 herbal oils to create a unique signature scent that also evokes the "feeling" of the rune to aid in setting intention.

Description

Berkano is the rune of the birch tree, associated with growth and healing.  It can be used to heal wounds and promote growth and recovery – both mental and physical.  It embodies the strength of the earth and its energy.  As opposed to Ingwaz (the seed), Berkano is the growth; it helps grow what you already have, not create something from scratch.
