Suncatcher ~ thank you so much for that important information regarding things to watch out for when incorporating candles into our environment ~

I have read about the soot problems too and try to watch out for candles that might have a higher soot content ~ Great that you point out the benefits and beauty of beeswax candles! I have had them in my home in the past and they are very clean burning just like you pointed out ~ love the natural and amazing patterns of the honeycomb - bees are amazing - before the honeycomb is melted to create the candles ~

Another way to cut down on possible soot from candles is not to light them ...but to use them as decoration ~ I find even without burning the candles ...the fragrance of the essential oils within the candles are still very strong and lightly perfume the area surrounding it ~

So I'm happy to hear that you enjoyed my feng shui blog, Suncatcher ~ I'm sure that you have wonderful healing ideas for your home ~ The people on Divine Earth are all so creative so I can only imagine how beautiful all your homes are ~ Enjoy the art of feng shui and bringing the elements of nature indoors! ~
